'Global temperatures have been rising for decades. But many scientists say it’s now happening faster than ever before...“We’re not continuing on the same path we had before,” said Robert Rohde, chief scientist at Berkeley Earth. “Something has changed.”'

The existential seriousness of what is happening is not in the media cycle enough.

It needs to be repeated 24/7 to affect people?

and framed as deadly serious...

@kumarvibe I understood Scotland and the rest of the British Isles would have Scandinavian winters without the warm jet stream.

and rain

if not us, who? If not now, when?

"Earth’s climate is now departing from the stable conditions that supported human civilization for millennia. Crossing critical temperature thresholds may trigger self-reinforcing feedbacks and tipping dynamics that amplify warming and destabilize distant Earth system components. Uncertain tipping thresholds make precaution essential, as crossing them could commit the planet to a hothouse trajectory with long-lasting and potentially irreversible consequences."

The #Arctic is warming 4 times faster than the rest of the Earth, and this is particularly pronounced in #greenland

The main driver is #globalwarming. But there’s another factor that’s making the problem even worse: pigmented algae on the ice

2 🆕 studies show that both the underlying ice and mineral dust from the surrounding area can provide enough nutrients for the algae to bloom every summer.

Where do nutrients for algae on ice come from ?

The mallards are blooming early this year. The early bloom appears to have resulted in just the head growing, and not the rest of the fryer bound body. For the duck foragers, maybe let this seasons crop sit in place so their spores can propagate into full ducks next year.

Giù le mani dalla Natura | Firma la petizione di WWF Italia

Nel silenzio generale e senza il consenso dei cittadini, potenti industrie inquinanti e i loro alleati politici stanno smantellando le leggi ambientali europee. In nome del profitto sacrificano salute, natura e futuro.

“The world is closer than thought to a “point of no return” after which runaway global heating cannot be stopped, {The best climate} scientists have said.” Damian Carrington, Environment editor, Guardian, 120226. Yes, but on the plus side, humans will become extinct and the Earth can start repairing itself.

Art to activate: 🔥 Check out this collage featuring student views on the climate crisis and Cornell’s role in it.

Students are asking for more from Cornell. Will the administration listen?

FACES TO PHRASES
Students asked the Cornell community: "What is the first thing that comes to mind when you think of climate crisis?"
Students holding placards: justice; impending doom; collective action; accountability; capitalism is bad lol; Cornell should be doing more; act now or never; animals

Students holding placards: capitalism; overwhelmed but hopeful; climate change needs to be taken more seriously; equitable food access; concern uncertainty; coastal communities; optimism; species extinction; biodiversity loss; eat locally; really scary

students holding placards: collaboration; biodiversity loss; go vegan; lifestyle changes; money; universal; climate justice; apprehensive; water scarcity; promote renewable energy

students holding placards: distraught; it's 2025; on the brink; displacement; collective action; protect the bugs; out of control.

This collage was compiled as part of a class project for NTRES 4500: Climate Solutions Capstone. Some anonymous submissions were displayed in photos by members of the class's Cornell on Fire team.
