"ICJ: What the world courts landmark opinion means for climate change"

Last week: The storm that hit Kerrville was similar to prior rainfall events from 1987 and 2002 that led to flooding on the Guadalupe River. (As well as more historic .) Those risks were known, though perhaps the rainfall intensity and rate of the rivers rise were a bit more extreme than in the past.

How a marine heatwave transformed life along the Pacific coast - Earth.com

96% of oceans worldwide had extreme heatwaves in 2023 and a tipping point may be near, study finds Live Science

Grocery prices and climate change. Denial is very expensive!

Marine heatwaves may have driven the worlds oceans to a critical tipping point, scientists warn.

The research found that reduced cloud cover, which allows more solar radiation to reach the water, was a key driver, alongside weaker winds that diminish cooling from evaporation, and changing ocean currents.

"As much as we might fuss about the details, four degrees Celsius of warming will be bad for everyone. The U.S. has been a uniquely toxic actor in that space, and the isolationist tendencies of the present administration might actually work to the global advantage in the long view if, and only if, we prevent Trump from pursuing wars and territorial expansion and global interference, like militarily occupying the Panama Canal and claiming Greenland..."

An important difference between Canada and the US: Canada is a party to the International Criminal Court and will presumably be affected by last weeks ruling on climate change, as weve seen happen already in Italy.

But I'm still trying to get over from last week! "the steamy conditions will last longer than last weeks spell did."

Climate disasters are pushing people into homelessness but theres a lot we can do about it:

The biggest criticism of climate modeling is not that it was or is too extreme, but too conservative.

Perpetuating the myth, the conceit of the west, that the financial and industrial core in the northern hemisphere was immune and insulated from the consequences of climate change.

The greatest change in temperature are found at higher latitudes. And because of that, the greatest change in extreme weather. The greatest extremes grow fastest.

8 Things to Know About New Research on Earths Rapid Drying and the Loss of Its Groundwater

Decades of NASA satellite data reveal how quickly the planets underground stores of fresh water have been depleted and how their use is contributing to rising sea levels. Here are the key takeaways.

US EV charging network *still* growing

Private sector is building rapidly, esp retailers adding chargers, and also, Teslas still at it (glass half full)

"This is a long journey it spans more than one administration, one political climate, one economic climate, for that matter.

"Charging Infrastructure Zooms Ahead Despite Trump Attacks"

Researchers were surprised to find that the loss of water on the continents has grown so dramatically that it has become one of the largest causes of global sea level rise.

"UN says booming solar, wind and other green energy hits global tipping point for even lower costs"

Clean energy is far cheaper to add than fossil fuel energy, despite fossil fuels having 9x the government subsidies worldwide!

Man With Sign, July 28, 02025

Jeez, is the weekend over that quickly Monday sneaks up on me and prods me into wakefulness at ten of seven this morning, and I lurch into action. Coffee, toast, a few minutes' contemplation, and it's out on the road I go, arriving at Roosevelt Circle at 7:30 and setting up ALL-BLACK signage (every Monday till sanity returns).

Liberias Novel Plan to Save Its Forests.

Plagued by illegal logging and corruption, Liberia has been losing its forests at an alarming rate. But its new strategy to make direct payments to communities that agree to prohibit cutting and protect their trees is seen as a potential model for other developing nations.

Good Morning
Finally... the moment you have been waiting for. It's Day #1 of . Who knows what fascinating facts of Castor Canadensis we will discover together this week. Our Beavers fought back from near extinction because their fur made awesome hats to become an increasingly important mammal restoring water conservation in an era of global warming. The odd double entendre, totally unintentional, of course, might slip into the conversation.
The best place to start is with this highly interesting Canadian Geographic article that provides some history and habitat info on our beloved Beaver.

In 2025, heatwaves are still news, but in decades to come, as temperatures ramp up year-on-year, they will be nothing to write home about.

Clima: due sentenze storiche di ONU e Cassazione per la giustizia ambientale

Entrambi questi pronunciamenti hanno di certo aperto la strada a una nuova era di contenziosi climatici, ponendo Stati e grandi aziende di fronte alle proprie responsabilit.
La Corte dellONU pone obblighi vincolanti e responsabilit internazionale per gli Stati, la Cassazione italiana legittima la causa a ENI, MEF e CDP per danno climatico.

is so important for allowing marginalised voices (like the scapegoated disabled) to be heard and important issues (like the climate crisis) to be truly understood.
