Happy #LeapDay! We get a whole extra day! 🐸
But why?

We say it takes 365 days for Earth to orbit the Sun, but it’s more like 365.25 (where 1 day = 1 rotation of Earth on its axis). To make up the time, we add a day about every 4 years. go.nasa.gov/49Pg1jF

RT @TylerPrize: 2024 Tyler Prize winner @jrockstrom to @MongabayOrg: "If the only thing you focus on policy-wise is your 1.5°C boundary, then, of course, you’re always at risk of missing [and impacting other boundaries], of overconsuming water or ecosystems. But the planetary boundary framework becomes a comprehensive accounting system, which enables you to avoid doing such mistakes.

You can check upfront whether your investments — be it in mining for rare earth metals, for battery technologies or for EVs, or if it is biofuels or bioenergy systems. You cannot go wrong if you take a planetary boundary framework [approach] and measure upfront against quantitative, hard sustainability boundaries."
