The European Commission pressures France to improve energy links with Spain and Portugal after a blackout.

The Commission presented plans for speeding up integration of member states’ power infrastructure on Wednesday, particularly in regards to Spain and Portugal, which were hit by mass outages this year.

Both countries have long accused France of being slow to act.

Lights out in Russia !

Frontline report: From victim to retaliator – Ukraine targets Russian energy grid across multiple regions

" After months of Russian attacks on Ukrainian energy facilities, Ukraine has launched massive retaliatory strikes on Russia’s power infrastructure, plunging regions like Belgorod and Kursk into darkness. As Russia declares a national emergency, President Zelensky’s warnings about proportional retaliation are becoming reality. "

Well done, bravo, and we want more of the same!

Sweating to shivering: Study finds rapid swings in temperature have increased

Flips between warm temperatures to cold and vice versa have become quicker, more frequent and more intense in recent decades, a new study shows.

By Christina Kelso | The New York Times
| April 26, 2025, 8:00 a.m.

"A September heat wave switching into a snowstorm over one day in the Rocky Mountains. Winter snowfall suddenly melting and saturating fields of dormant crops, before refreezing and encasing them in damaging ice. Early spring warmth prompting plants to blossom followed by a cold snap that freezes and drops their petals.

"Rapid temperature change events like these have increased in frequency and intensity over recent decades, a new study found.

"The transition periods for these abrupt temperature shifts have also shortened, according to the study, published Tuesday in the journal Nature Communications.

"Because the quick changes in temperature give communities and ecosystems little chance to respond, they may pose greater challenges than heat waves or cold snaps alone, said #WeiZhang, an assistant professor of climate science at Utah State University and one of the lead authors of the study.

" 'The impact could really be cascading on a different level,' he said.

"The researchers warned these temperature flips could have damaging effects on people and natural #environments, including destruction of #crops, harm to #ecosystems and strains on #PowerInfrastructure. And #LowIncomeCountries, where there is less access to weather forecasting and infrastructure is less resilient, are more vulnerable.

"The researchers examined temperature data from 1961 to 2023 to identify global patterns in sudden weather shifts, where temperatures in an area either jumped from cold temperatures to warm or plunged from warm to cold within five days. They found that instances of these flips increased in more than 60% of regions they surveyed.

"The largest increases in frequency were observed in South America, West Europe, Africa, and South and Southeast Asia. Some areas, including the polar regions, showed different behavior and experienced fewer events.

"While the climate mechanisms driving changes to these temperature-flip events are not yet fully understood, Zhang said, there is a significant trend showing that these events are becoming more frequent, stronger and quicker in many areas of the globe."
