I shot this video w/Penn Environment last fall and the crew did an amazing job putting these clean energy stories together.

*Especially* given the ongoing, escalating assault on the environment, I'm proud that the things I've already done (#solar #induction #EV #native #plants) will keep on making a difference for decades to come, regardless.

"they’re investing not only in cleaner energy for themselves, but also a cleaner world for their grandchildren’s generation."

Interpretation and Inquiry —

To illustrate the role of sign relations in inquiry we begin with Dewey's elegant and simple example of reflective thinking in everyday life.

❝A man is walking on a warm day. The sky was clear the last time he observed it; but presently he notes, while occupied primarily with other things, that the air is cooler. It occurs to him that it is probably going to rain; looking up, he sees a dark cloud between him and the sun, and he then quickens his steps. What, if anything, in such a situation can be called thought? Neither the act of walking nor the noting of the cold is a thought. Walking is one direction of activity; looking and noting are other modes of activity. The likelihood that it will rain is, however, something suggested. The pedestrian feels the cold; he thinks of clouds and a coming shower.❞ (John Dewey, How We Think, 6–7).

Battery induction stove

"Because the new range has a battery, it’s possible to plug into an existing outlet.

The tech is designed to charge the #battery from the grid when the most renewable energy is available.

While some #induction stoves have an annoying buzz while they work, Charlie is silent. And if a storm temporarily takes out the grid, both the stovetop and oven can keep going, with enough stored power for three to five meals."

The #food system is one of the most meaningful places to address #ClimateChange.

Have you been curious about switching from gas to #induction? This game-changing cooktop is faster, cleaner, more precise, and a win for the environment.

My new ep of Serving Up Science is all about why it makes sense to switch when it’s time to replace your range. youtu.be/JyTvHQnHq14?si=4twIzt #energy

Why do we say that induction is stronger than deduction?

It depends, because induction is stronger than deduction in several ways.

Formal strength lies in part in what sort of problem the method can work on. Induction can work on stuff that deduction can't even begin to work on.

Strength of output lies in how well the outcomes tolerate contradiction. An inductive conclusion can withstand quite a bit of contradiction. Deductive outcomes cannot withstand any contradiction at all.

These two are related, though.
An inductive outcome can be formed from input that contains contradictions. And when the outcome encounters a contradiction, this is simply added to the Body of Evidence, with all the other contradictions that in the end didn't manage to prevent conclusion.

Of course, given enough such evidence, a better outcome or set of outcomes can be produced.

But with deduction, if you hit even a single contradiction, your entire effort was wasted - the conclusion is now worthless.

This strength of induction was predicted already by Hume, who described what we now call inductive reasoning as:

  • infallible in its operations
  • discovers itself at the first appearance of life and thought
  • independent of all the laboured deductions of the understanding
