‘Mind-bogglingly crazy’: #climate experts alarmed by deadly spring #heatwaves searing Europe
"In 2024, summer #heat in the #EU claimed roughly three times more lives than car crashes, 16 times more than murderers, and more than 10,000 times more than terrorists"

The first heatwave of 2026 have reached Iran. Temperatures are above normal in certain areas of the country. And in some others, way over normal.
Situation is far worse in southern Iraq and Saudi Arabia.

#Himalaya's rivers are shifting their course faster due to #climate warming
Analysis of four decades of river data shows nearly doubled migration rates driven by #glacier melt and thawing frozen ground -

While the stupid people are obsessed with Russia and supporting the genicidal regime of Israel, our world is speeding towards climate catastrophe.
The #Europe #heatwave starts today and lasts about a week. Peak heat will be 16°C above normal. As high as 40°C/ 104°F in SW Spain. Most Widespread Heat day pictured here is Tuesday..

I fucking love Harrison Ford.
"Humanity is part of nature, not above it. We need cultural change. We need to extend social justice. We need to respect and elevate the indigenous people that are being marginalised and in many cases murdered in cold blood."
Part of his commencement speech at Arizona State University, where he received an honorary doctorate this week.

"Can geoengineering avert a #climatecatastrophe?
The construction of a dam (to close the Bering Strait) could prevent the weakening of the #AMOC..."
Wow. The sheer desperate madness of the idea shows how completely & truly fucked we are. Abandon all hope, ye who read this...

"Ugg! Me Mr. Ugg! Me say we take rivers from da Oogaboogadoos! It them who poison da rivers and say it cli-mut chains!"
I still remember when big burns resulting from clinate change had too many tribal idiots in America claim it was arson.

Nothing else to say.

Tech and fossil fuel companies are destroying the world latest
"Nevada's largest utility says it will need three times the electricity required to power Las Vegas just to handle proposed data centers — and it probably can't do that without fossil fuels."

‘Green card for the planet’? #Fifa ’s World Cup is on pace to be a #ClimateCatastrophe

@edwiebe @metacosm @hausfath Well that's a weird take. There are actual scientists trying to put numbers to #war emissions.
- In 2022, the global military was estimated to be responsible for an additional uncounted 5,5% of global emissions, without the damages from actual warfighting included: https://ceobs.org/new-estimate-global-military-is-responsible-for-more-emissions-than-russia/
- Scientists have estimated that the carbon footprint of the first year of the Ukraine war amounted to Belgium's annual emissions (other estimates exist): https://theconversation.com/how-to-assess-the-carbon-footprint-of-a-war-215575
- Here's an Indian NGO that lists some other impacts of war, like that the ecological capacity to store carbon e.g. in forests is reduced, or that a lot of emissions arise from reconstruction: https://climatefactchecks.org/wars-environmental-damage-how-conflicts-accelerate-global-warming/
That's not "not much", in my opinion.

A lone woman confronts the police in Odisha, India, highlighting the struggle of the indigenous population against forced land acquisition by international mining companies (the explosions you can hear in the background are the companies using dynamite to mine for coal).
Women from more than 200 families are fighting against the plans.

This year's El Niño is projected to surpass the deadliest in recorded history.
• This year's El Niño is being called a "Super El Niño" - last time a 'super El Niño' hit this hard, it killed more than 50 Million people.
