@coxypm @JMBecologist But that's the thing isn't it? It costs nothing for politicians to *say* they'll go for an ambitious target. They don't need to actually meet them (in fact, they're unlikely to be in the job when the deadlines approach)

@JMBecologist #NetZero is a well-defined concept scientifically. I'm amazed politicians have signed-up for such ambitious targets, but I am worried we will let them off the hook by undermining those targets before they are anywhere nearing being met.

Why are scientists so often fooled by politicians setting illusory targets? We say: #ClimateCrisis. They say:#NetZero at some far distant time. We say: sounds good We say: #EcologicalCrisis. They say: OK, Aichi targets failed, but we’ll do some new ones. We say: Thanks

@lawrennd Are the journalists also not partially to blame? (like, 50/50)?

Can we all agree to stop doing this? I'm sure the research is great, but let's not have press releases about advances until *after* clinical trials. It's making a mockery of the challenges of translating machine learning into practice. bbc.com/news/health-57…

Ha! This will undoubtedly be great because the ATI is great, but I wonder if a more unambiguously positive endorsement should have been selected!
