Degrowth Malmö

Vi vill att #Malmö ska förbjuda #fossil #reklam.

Förra veckan beslöt Delft i Nederländerna att gå med i en växande grupp städer som förbjuder fossil reklam i sina utomhusmiljöer. I #Sverige finns liknande beslut där man i Stockholm och Göteborg har förbjudit fossil reklam i kollektivtrafiken.

För dig som bor i Malmö kan du skriva under det här medborgarinitiativet om du tycker som oss. Efter 100 röster måste det diskuteras av en av stadens nämnder.

Vi kommer att finnas på plats denna torsdag under #Overshoot festivalen för er som vill diskutera vidare, komma med fler idéer om hur vi kan förbättra Malmö, eller undrar vilka som är fördelarna med en fossilfri stadsmiljö. Klockan 12-19 i Folkets Park.

A stunner of an Archaeopteryx fossil preserves SO MUCH soft tissue, including scales on its toe pads and a group of flight feathers never seen before in Archaeopteryx. Called tertials, they lie between the elbow and the body, and play a key flight role in modern birds.

In my latest for CNN, lead study author and paleontologist Jingmai O'Connor explains how these feathers confirm a longheld hypothesis that Archaeopteryx was capable of powered flight.

CNN · ‘Important moment in evolution’: Fossil preserves never-before-seen flight feathers in ‘first bird’Scientists were finally given access to a remarkable Archaeopteryx fossil that’s allowed them to better understand exactly how the earliest known bird could fly.

Global Carbon Budget

The 2024 Global #Carbon Budget projects fossil #CarbonDioxide (#CO2) emissions of 37.4 billion tonnes, up 0.8% from 2023.

Despite the urgent need to cut #emissions to slow #ClimateChange, the researchers say there is still “no sign” that the world has reached a peak in #fossil CO2 emissions.

With projected emissions from land-use change (such as #deforestation) of 4.2 billion tonnes, total CO2 emissions are projected to be 41.6 billion tonnes in 2024, up from 40.6 billion tonnes last year.

Giant, #Ancient Life Form Doesn’t Fit Into Any Known Branch of Life
Scientists have debated where #Prototaxites belong in tree of life for over a century, but now a new study suggests it might represent a whole new branch.
Researchers analyzed #fossil of Prototaxites species called Prototaxites taiti and concluded that it belonged to now-extinct lineage of multicellular #terrestrial #eukaryotes (organisms, including all animals and plants, whose cells contain a nucleus).
