: World's oceans reach record temperature, prompting fears of worst mass coral bleaching

One thing I did decide over our winter experiment is while absolutly nobody should be forced by their lack of money to live without heating or without adaquate heating ,but especially ther vulnerable and those with children .I think maybe people need to stop feeling they have the right to be warm inside year round in indoor clothing .I havent felt hard done by or even noticed most of the time except mid winter when heatings essential

5 things we learned from the EUs big (and first) climate risk report

Oil industry has sought to block state backing for green tech since 1960s

This is a warning of things to come

The Philippine Atmospheric Geophysical and Astronomical Administration () has issued warnings indicating a or feels-like temperatures of 41 degrees Celsius on Monday to 40 degrees on Tuesday in some areas in .

Rising temperatures prompt class suspensions in 4 cities, 2 towns in

I need to reiterate.
The 12-month average now sits at 1.5C above pre-industrial levels - after the first year-long breach of 1.5C warming was confirmed last month.



News articles STILL cite out of date reports calling for net zero by 2050.

Think we need policy to address climate destruction

The European Environment Agency - has published the first ever European Climate Risk Assessment (EUCRA)

" 2023 was the warmest year on record over more than 100,000 years globally, at 1.48C above pre-industrial levels "

FULL REPORT:
(Available in multiple languages)

The European Environment Agency - has published the first ever European Climate Risk Assessment (EUCRA)

" these risks have already reached critical levels and could become catastrophic without urgent and decisive action "

SUMMARY REPORT:

- European Climate Risk Assessment - "Extreme heat, drought, wildfires, and flooding, as experienced in recent years, will worsen in Europe even under optimistic global warming scenarios and affect living conditions throughout the continent. The EEA has published the first ever European Climate Risk Assessment (EUCRA) to help identify policy priorities for climate change adaptation and for climate-sensitive sectors." - European Environment Agency (EEA) Report No 1/2024

The oil industry has fought against government support for clean technologies for more than half a century, the Guardian can reveal, even as vast subsidies have propped up its polluting business model.

In the words of science writer and author of The Uninhabitable Earth David Wallace-Wells, No matter how well informed you are, you are surely not alarmed enough.

If you've been hoping that somehow we'd reach net zero & halt the spiralling temperature(s) associated with climate change, sadly the EU's Environmental Agency doesn't agree with you.

The Agency is warning of much higher average temperature(s) & associate disruption(s) as we approach mid-century.

Given reports that we're already further along this slope than we had thought, non of this looks implausible...

We had our chance & we blew it the young will be picking up the pieces

The EEA report says several climate risks have already reached critical levels. If decisive action is not taken now, it says, most climate risks could reach critical or catastrophic levels by the end of this century.

This should be the final wake-up call.

This video is for the people who already know how hosed we are in terms of .

This video talks about things that are happening to improve the situation TODAY, not promises of "net zero by 2050". It is a glimmer of hope, that incentives can be aligned so it makes more sense to completely burn instead of flaring it off, or worse, just allowing it to leak into the atmosphere entirely.

Please don't be scared off by the title, hear it out.

There's a hint of "both sides", and also "Isn't this funny that the teenager wants to do something" in the article... but I'm ignoring that.

The effects of lead in leaded gas, which was added to early gas to make engines run quieter and was still around when I was a kid, have long been known.

Space ship Earth, third planet from the sun Sol in the Milky Way galaxy. A unique and beautiful blue marble we are fortunate enough to call home.

Is it ours No, no it is not. We share it with the other inhabitants - thousands of species of microbes, plants, animals, birds as well as the creatures of the sea. We inherited custodial rights from our parents, and we will leave those to our children. We, are merely visitors.

Humans have ravaged this planet as our population sky rockets out of control.

Some would have us believe that Mother Earth has infinite carrying capacity if we tech the shit out of it while they monetize everything.

When will enough of us take a stand and say: no more, it stops here, now. We need to find another way - because what we've been doing - is not working.
