Each year, one firm stands out because its passion and practice have produced notable architecture for at least 10 years.
This year, @mithun_design is honored with the Architecture Firm Award. Meet them→bit.ly/3iKk6At

By weight, we’ve done more to transform the planet’s atmosphere with the production of carbon emissions than we’ve done to the planet’s surface through the engineering and production of everything that humans ever built still standing today. Think about that for a second. (1/x)
I often say the most mind-bending fact about climate is that half of all emissions came in the last 25 years. Maybe even more startling: the weight of that carbon is more than the total mass of everything ever built by humans and still standing on earth. nytimes.com/interactive/2022…

The last 8 months of effort with the @AIANational Strategic Council have included working with a team to create a scalable plan to combat climate change. This *living* document is the next step from which we can improve together. aia.org/pages/6455113-scalab…

There is a lot of important information about the future of our climate in the nearly 4,000 pages of the new IPCC 6th Assessment Report WG1.
Thankfully @CarbonBrief is here with a massive, easy to understand Q&A to explain most of the important parts: carbonbrief.org/in-depth-qa-…

The new IPCC 6th Assessment Report (AR6) provides an unprecedented degree of clarity about the future of our planet, and the need to reduce – and ultimately eliminate – our emissions of greenhouse gases.
In this thread I take a look at some key findings from the report: 1/27
Thank you @atwilson for this thorough analysis and guidance. #resilientdesign

Beautiful and very telling.
While the global as a whole has warming around 1.2C since preindustrial times, land areas where we all live have on average warmed close to 2C already.
In honor of #ShowYourStripes day, here are land, ocean, and global stripes all shown relative to the same temperature range:

We are in a very different world when Biden takes office in 2021 than we were at the start of the Obama administration in 2009.
In the last decade we've succeeded in making clean energy cheap, and technology can go a long way in enabling more ambitious climate policy.
