Is climate change unfolding faster than expected? https://drawdown.org/insights/is-climate-change-unfolding-faster-and-fiercer-than-scientists-expected According to Dr Kate Marvel: "we’re more sure that greenhouse gas emissions are warming the planet than we are that smoking causes cancer" #climatechange

#ESTIVATION

Pfff, j'allais vous proposer de créer un nouveau mot, mais il existe déjà. 🤔 😜

Voici l'équivalent de l'#hibernation, mais durant l'#été : #Hiberner l'#été, ou plutôt #Estiver, un autre type moins connu de #léthargie saisonnière ! 😎 🫠 😴

= Grosse grosse #sieste !!

C'est un peu l'impression que j'ai des 2 mois qui viennent de passer.

Un petit 28°C en début d'après-midi avec la fenêtre ouverte ? Ça f'sait longtemps !

«Wer sich vom Hass nicht distanzieren kann, wird wahnsinnig», sagt der Schweizer #Klimaforscher

Auf seinem Tisch liegt ein Stapel Briefe – zuoberst steht «Idiot». Der #ETH -Professor für #Klimaphysik
sagt, wie er damit umgeht. Und erklärt, weshalb Fakten allein die Welt nicht retten. #ZüricherTagesanzeiger #Klimawandel #changementclimatique #climatechange

@peterdutoit Don't you think that this will increase with time if we become reluctant towards conservation of environment and the whole planet at large?
More wildfires will show up,and our world will be filled with high temperatures

'Perception Gap' is a nice way to put it. In German we call it 'Kognitive Dissonanz'. One could simply say 'not very intelligent behaviour'.

via BBC : "The El Niño event that is developing over the Pacific Ocean is likely to be the strongest in living memory, the Met Office has warned. The powerful natural climate phenomenon pushes up global temperatures and can increase the risks of extreme weather"

“2027 'very likely' to be the hottest on record”

If you thought that the drought and wildfire impacts were bad this year!?

All better getting putting Natural Flood Management, and Nature-based Solutions, broadleaf trees in place now, at a landscape scale, help what ever water is to come, soak into the soil.

Stop building data centres, end new fossil fuels, and reign in global billionaires.

"Kremlin climate disinformation has moved beyond simple denial.

As climate change became harder to dismiss, pro-Kremlin outlets shifted to attacking the response: EU climate rules are framed as authoritarian, green policies as economic suicide,
and energy diversification as proof Europe has harmed itself.

Peculiar how every climate argument from the Kremlin somehow ends at the same destination: buy Russian gas."

There are FIVE concurrently active tropical systems and disturbances in the Western North Pacific.

Not one, not two. FIVE! The Pacific is roaring with storms.

Apart from #SevereTropicalStorm #Saudel, which is expected to be upgraded to #Typhoon soon before hitting Okinawa next Wednesday, there are one tropical depression, two tropical disturbances, and one subtropical disturbance.

Saudel is a Pohnpeian name for the title of Chief Soudelor's trusted guard or soldier.

#ClimateChange

#ElNino is not a new phenomenon, but the amplification by #ClimateChange and #GlobalWarming seems to be appearing.

And the impact on the Panama Canal, reducing the number of ships it can handle, will only add to the cost of shipping, and so #Inflation.

This economic impact brought to US #Consumers by the #FossilFuelIndustries and the #GOP climate deniers that have blocked progress on climate for over 25 years.
