  1. This was supposed to be the end of the heatwave.

    All shades and windows closed, fan in every room, gave Mellie a quick shower before going for a walk and giving her frozen carrots and cucumbers, plus ice in her bowl.

    Showered in the morning and probably going to shower again before going to bed.

    Washed off all the sheets and pillow cases (second time this weekend) because I'm waking up soaking in sweat every morning.

    I'm still waiting for those assholes complaining about the cold and posting "I love global warming" sarcastically to come up and say what they have to say about this.

  3. Woke up early and my pillow and bed sheets are soaking wet.

    It feels like I'm back in Ghana.

    Slept with the fan blasting into the bed and light cover last night.

    Saturday is supposed to be an even worse day, 36-38 degrees C during the day and 27-28 at night.

    Most of my tomatoes on the balcony are dying as I don't have a cover and the sun is really hot. I guess my next strategic purchase is a shade cloth.

    This sucks.

  5. I haven't seen any news stories about the actual fires in northern Ontario & what is happening to First Nations communities. As far as I can tell, no state of emergency has been issued even though several communities have been destroyed.

    We have the world's worst air quality right now.

    And all the while, Carney keeps removing environmental protections.

    Fuck that earth-killing, money-grubbing asshole. He's contributing to the death of us all.

  7. @denbib I'm curious if someone has already recalculated the life expectancy figures for different groups of people in Europe, taking into account climate change impacts?
    I mean, those 14k people who died prematurely in June, were expected to live into their 80s, and now they won't. Also, many people in similar circumstances won't survive the future heatwaves, hurricanes and whatnot. Surely the overall life expectancy should be lower across the board?

    Yes; plus I’ve seen some population surveys** reporting large proportions of respondents that are *very* concerned but who also under-estimate (by a lot) just how concerned others are. This situation could be holding the majority back - we all know how people prefer to act in groups. Perhaps this angle could be harnessed?

    ** Sorry I don’t have the source to hand, will try to find & return with it; may contain some other insights. Perhaps someone here knows more?

  12. Dear reporters, if you interview boomers about the damage they sustained from fires, heat waves, floods, I cannot take you seriously if you do not ask how many years they’ve voted for a party that promotes the mitigation of climate change. #climatecatastrophe #climate #media

  14. RE: mastodon.scot/@bodhipaksa/1168

    🔴🔴 This post, with the linked Hartmann commentary, should be required reading for every U.S. citizen/resident & all who have a vested interest in this country’s freedom. It scared the crap out of me.

    🔴🔴 Its wake-up warnings can also be applied to #ClimateCrisis, which is quickly becoming #ClimateCatastrophe as the ocean warms beyond what the marine food chain & life can tolerate, while thousands of people are dying from heat & weather, AND the fossil fuel industry roars along with taxes & growth subsidized by the Very Stupid.

    🟢🟢 PLEASE take the time to read the article then make time to follow the suggestions at the end. We’ve had decades to fight the forces behind the dolt in the Oval Office & decades to mitigate our #ClimateEmergency, yet here we are at crisis central — with a well-funded police state & dying Earth.

    🌀Thank you.

    A study reveals that falling water levels trigger a surge in #methane emissions from Mediterranean #reservoirs
    The research, published in the journal ‘Global Change Biology’, has, for the first time in Spain, used a floating platform equipped with eddy covariance technology to continuously measure the greenhouse gases emitted by a reservoir

    Understanding #Earth’s past temperatures

    The Earth’s temperature has been much cooler in the past than previously thought, meaning it could be moving towards the warmest it’s ever been.
