Digging this gem up from the past! Thanks Patrick for these nice visualizations. I keep repeatedly bringing it up every time I have to talk about SOP and "phase" :)

@MDPIOpenAccess Sending incessant manuscript review requests [3+ in a month] isn't a very good idea. I would love to get on a do-not contact list if possible.

Here's a (hopefully) much neater thread on #Article6 and what's happening here #COP27. But let's not bury the lead: what's being set up is a system of potentially 💩 💰 for carbon. (thanks @CarbonMrktWatch too for ongoing excellent analysis) Here's why 🧵 ↓ :
