a professional acquaintance mentioned yesterday that he'd lately seen compostable stuff pretty close in cost to regular disposable plasticware, at the local supermarket

I haven't checked the prices on these things lately but this sounds promising

like how solar PV energy is actually cost-compettive with natural gas these days, and (more subtly) is similarly available

OMFG this is brilliant.

If you can understand by ear and know (a romanization system for Cantonese) but can't read , this browser extension essentially opens up a whole world of Chinese text.

github.com/CanCLID/inject-jyut

It adds a Jyutping display to Chinese text. This works on many sites.

I can't overstate how amazing it is that I can suddenly read so much more Chinese text, far more directly than with English translations.

The Program on Climate Change Communication has just released its study "Global Warming's Six Audiences around the world" -- which builds on prior analysis categorizing U.S. opinions on ( ) into six categories (Alarmed, Concerned, Cautious, Disengaged, Doubtful, Dismissive).

I ran across the following short video about urban adaptations to accommodate rainwater and decrease flooding due to extreme rain events in China (and also capture some of it for groundwater/aquifer recharge). As the video notes, these are being worked on in other countries but China is implementing them at scale.
