"War and climate
The closure of the Strait of Hormuz showed how quickly a regional conflict can throw global energy markets into chaos. By pushing governments toward coal and biofuels, the war could accelerate deforestation and undermine climate negotiations, with environmental consequences that will linger long after the fighting ends.
Six months into the Iran war, the standoff in the Strait of Hormuz continues to rattle the global economy. Traders and governments are watching for signs of escalation, while households and companies are paying more for fuel and fearing energy shortages.
But the war is also taking a deeper, albeit less visible, environmental toll, driving up carbon dioxide emissions and undermining international cooperation on climate change. And unlike high oil prices, those costs will not disappear when the war ends."

"When Climate Change Comes for the Fish Fry
Each week across Wisconsin, diners crowd into supper clubs, VFW halls, and corner taverns for a ritual that has endured for generations: the Friday night fish fry. Almost half of Wisconsinites say they sit down to a fish fry at least once a month. But increasingly, what's on the plate isn’t local. As warming lakes, invasive species, and disrupted spawning cycles threaten native fish populations, the tradition faces an uncertain future. What happens when a cherished custom must adapt to a changing ecosystem?
In this project, journalist Jeff Oloizia follows the journey from hook to fryer, shadowing conservation teams, consulting scientists, and sharing tables with chefs, anglers, and historians. Through data, storytelling, and on-the-ground reporting, he explores a quieter climate crisis: the erosion of cultural traditions through ecological loss, and what’s at stake when the natural world stops cooperating with the stories we tell about who we are."

Somehow, I missed this essay and I regret it because it tells a plausible story about the current multicrisis and its origins. But it's not a bedtime story and you must read it till the end to keep some hope.

UNICEF: More than 171 million students had their schooling disrupted by climate hazards in 2025;
"storms were the most common cause of school disruptions last year, affecting 109 million students globally. Floods affected at least 70 million students, while heatwaves disrupted schooling for approximately 50 million children."
They call for climate adaptation investments in schools.

#NativeAmericaCalling - Persistent heat puts strain on people, the environment, and the economy
Wednesday, September 2, 2026
"After record-setting temperatures across the country, dangerous summer heat continues to spill into September.
"The number of heat-related deaths in the #PhoenixAZ , area are on track to triple last year’s numbers. And schools, businesses, and events are shutting down across the Midwest from Iowa to Michigan.
"Institutions are also forced to close down in Pennsylvania and other states along parts of the Eastern Seaboard. Tribal officials are busy reacting to the current threat while also preparing for the likelihood that adapting to such conditions is a permanent concern.
"Tune into Native America Calling to look at the affect on people and the environment as the heat moves in."

With about 16000 deaths, this year's heatwaves were the deadliest natural disaster in Germany for at least the last 100 years (https://www.sueddeutsche.de/projekte/artikel/wissen/sommerbilanz-2026-hitze-tropennaechte-klima-deutschland-europa-e337370/). The left plot below shows estimates and 95% confidence intervals of heat-associated fatalities per year for Germany published by the Robert Koch Institute (https://www.rki.de/DE/Themen/Gesundheit-und-Gesellschaft/Gesundheitliche-Einflussfaktoren-A-Z/H/Hitze/Bericht_Hitzemortalitaet.html). On the right I have plotted rolling 5-year averages of the numbers on the left together with a linear trend. While there is still a lot of variation, the trend is clearly upwards. We started the fire, and now it comes for us.

Nature highlighting that emotional framing drives climate action far better than dry data alone is a vital lesson. Relying solely on cold charts while fossil fuel interests push fear and outrage fails to move the needle. Why aren't we communicating better?
