Saving the only planet we have makes good economic sense. There is, after all, no money to be made on a dead Earth.

The world needs to cut carbon emissions by nearly a fifth in the next four years, and by close to half within a decade, to avoid overshooting climate targets by a disastrous margin.

New tools pinpoint where urban #trees could provide the most relief from #heat
By combining high-resolution satellite heat mapping with shade and equity modelling, UBC researchers are helping city planners target trees where they can have the greatest impact

An article about 7 out of 9 of earth's stabilising systems being heavily damaged and endangered is somewhere far, far down on a news site.
How is "we're fucking up this habitat of ours so badly that it'll likely collapse" not headlines?

Asian governments are rushing preparations for the most severe El Niño weather event on record, with hundreds of millions of people bracing for multiple crises at once as extreme heat, heavy rain and food shortages hit the region.

Rising global temperatures caused by the burning of fossil fuels are transforming the world’s forests, wetlands and tundra to the point they are releasing emissions that could further worsen global heating by as much as 30%, a new study has found.

El Niño is being supersized before our eyes. The science leaves no room for doubt: the planet is in uncharted waters, and those waters are heating up.
The race now is between rising risks and our commitment to take climate action and protect people. We must win that race.

The International Court of Justice has made it clear – keeping to 1.5C is not a choice, it is a legal obligation. We are not asking for your goodwill. We are not begging you. We are telling you what international law requires of you. End fossil fuel expansion. Your corporate profits cannot be allowed to extinguish our future.

Nvidia are going to spend $500 billion on increasing their carbon footprint.
For context, the UN have estimated that it would cost $93 billion per year to end world hunger.
Anyway, hope you're all enjoying the heat wave.

Acne Flares May be Worsened by Climate Change
While potentially protective, Boos and colleagues noted that cutaneous bacteria may be more vulnerable to higher effective UV radiation doses at increased temperatures, which are direct consequences of the changing climate.

A small chorus of right-leaning critics are trying to convince politicians that climate action is deeply unpopular, downplaying its seriousness in the process. They accept the reality of human-made climate change, but believe the impact of it won’t be as big as people argue, and that policies involved in mitigating these impacts will be expensive and difficult.

Hungary and Romania have been forced to shut down nuclear reactors. They are increasingly relying on expensive power imports as heatwave conditions increase demand for electricity. Both countries use water from the Danube as coolant for their reactors.

The terrifying scenes we’ve seen so far this summer are the latest part of a pernicious long-term pattern.
Across the world, the past 11 years have been the 11 hottest ever recorded – and with a super strength El Niño forming in the Pacific which could pour yet more fuel on the fire, that trend is all but certain to continue.
The climate emergency is here – and no one can say they didn’t see it coming.

Heat will once again build across the UK this weekend before the fifth widespread heatwave of the year is likely to be declared next week.
From Sunday and into next week, temperatures could exceed 30C in south-east England.
Yellow heat health alerts have been issued for most of England until Tuesday, warning of impacts for health and social care services and an increased risk to life for vulnerable people.

Extreme heat and its consequences are the result of a fossil fuel policy that is completely irresponsible and extremely dangerous.

What people now nervously call “the new normal” is, in truth, not normal and but a taste of things to come. These extreme weather events we are increasingly experiencing – and the warlike mood they create – represent attacks on our soil.
They are a call to mobilize.

While renewables are cheaper than fossil fuels in nearly all circumstances, fossil fuels are more profitable, because useful reserves are limited and can each be monopolised by a single corporation, while prices can suddenly take flight in times of war or chaos.
Almost all the very rich are heavily invested in them.
