"Analysis shows the trend has been steady, and there is no recent new policy designed to address this. If the trend continues then one might expect more than 100,000 houses to be built on the highest-risk flood plains if the government achieves its 1.5m target.

Ludicrous.

Following on from my previous post, just to prove that its not all frighteningly formal and tidy. The previous years growth is still standing but I will be starting to cut it down in a couple of weeks or so.
Upright. Click to see all.

The vast majority of governments are likely to miss a looming deadline to file vital plans that will determine whether or not the world has a chance of avoiding the worst ravages of climate breakdown.

high time to use algorithm to detect these creatures just after birth and then.

Male chicks are a "residual product" of the egg industry. Because roosters do not lay eggs themselves, no money can be made from them. Therefore, about 40 million cockerels are gassed annually in the Netherlands after hatching from the egg

What to do

1. Start NOW. Get self sufficient according to your abilities and circumstances. A list of options:

2. Connect to neighbors, exchange skills and resources on the basis of mutual help. Build a small, resilient community.

3. Build a wold-wide network of interconnected communities

OA. RT remixtures: "The desire to be carefree is integral to the

Open access

"The desire to be carefree is integral to the psychic allure of Trumpism. It is pleasurable to disinter ones deepest resentments, to worship power, to go berserk with rage, to be floridly conspiratorial, to know nothing, to hallucinate Marxists under the bed, to picture the people you hate in tears and in chains. But the unifying principle, the rind that envelops and coheres these delights, is the abdication of adulthoods defining obligation: to take responsibility for oneself and others. It is precisely this responsibility that Trump and his set refuse. They are carefree in the face of catastrophe. And they give their supporters permission to take the same flight from responsibilityindeed, their political appeal depends on it. They want more babies in the United States of America.

Reactionary infantilism is not original to Trump. He is not, after all, an especially original figure. His specific genius lies in taking long-festering inflammations within the Republican mind and aggravating the swelling to the point of rupture."

Democracy:

In a real sense, US democracy has died this month. It doesnt mean its dead for the long term but at this moment the idea of an accountable representative system, as the framers of the constitution wrote it, is no longer present.

For example the modelled impacts from Hunga Tonga's stratospheric water vapour injection include a warmer Arctic by 0.5C for the warmer seasons in years 3-7 after the explosion, based on 2005-2020.
For the months DJF in the 5 year period, the biggest warming signal is over Canada with +1.5C, and the East Russian seas with 0.3C.

Below is Era5 temperature and precipitation anomaly for DJ 2024 and 2025 over the 2005-2020 base period, side by side with Figure 1 from Jucker et al 2024
or PDF here

We're now in year 3 after the explosion. And the month February 2025 is still out. So Jucker's statistically significant signal can not really be compared to D-J 2024 and 2025.

But my point is that someone next March might compare Jucker's model outcome with real development and try to figure out what the causes for differences were.
And thus, new knowledge is created.

I'm not saying, the exceptional 2023-January 2025 could have been caused by HT. The authors also deny this explicitly in their layman prose on The Conversation.
My point is, we lose the chance for expanding knowledge if we just assume every extreme were caused by

People in Connecticut are awakening. Afternoon hearings until almost 3:00 AM.

People staying up late, testifying. To protect one another. To protect the Earth. To stand up to fascism. To say hell no to authoritarianism.

To demand clean air.

To keep government out of their personal lives.

To speak the truth to power and counter dark-money campaigns.

People protecting people.

Some legislators tried playing semantics.

There foolish double speak fools only the dullest.

Your unreality is not our forced reality.

The people are awakening.

Alarmed. Awake.

And far from silent.

New England is, once again, astir.
