Here’s the moment Kelvin Kiptum made history at the #ChicagoMarathon
He clocks 2:00:35 and smashes Kipchoge’s previous marathon world record of 2:01:09 😨

11/ It’s suuuuuper early but it’s real code and real data, and it’s fun to think about what it could turn into. So much is possible at the intersection of AI and satellite data. #PlanetExplore23 youtube.com/watch?v=dNaPmRu0…

One of the more impressive @planet images I’ve had the privilege of working on lately. All 9 Himalayan 8,000-meter peaks in one view, taken from over Afghanistan.

What do you think of this #SDGmodel? Based on #IPBES #NaturesContributions to people, it shows how nature provides direct benefits to people through economies, which then support indirect benefits around social welfare and good quality of life #SDG @SustDev

Deep into the human caused climate crisis, with trillIon $ needs for climate finance and resilience in global South, we have a climate denialist as head of World Bank. Unacceptable. (Key point 7 min into panel) youtu.be/4w5TOHigaf8 via @nytimes
