Freakishly strong winter upper ridging starting tomorrow, into Fri. Free-air freezing levels will rise to at least 3300m here then.

By calculating how much risk will be reduced through resilience improvements, insurance companies provide the necessary data for local governments to issue the bonds. These investments simultaneously enhance the insurer's financial sustainability and enable the expansion of coverage to vulnerable populations and marginalized communities, who often suffer the most from slower recovery times and lack the capital for these resilience improvements

Climate worry is associated with depressive and anxiety symptoms among Finns of all ages. However, these symptoms are less common among individuals whose climate-related hope is combined with various forms of action, such as volunteering, following a plant-based diet or avoiding air travel.
