(at my place we had 9-12°C, today 25-30°C, in two days 9-12°C is predicted. No, this is NOT normal)

Even without any current tipping we have extreme accelerated heating. Guess what when we additionally hit the tipping points... Not IF, just WHEN...

Scientists studying Arctic plants say the ecosystems that host life in some of the most inhospitable reaches of the planet are changing in unexpected ways in an “early warning sign” for a region upended by climate change.

Agent orange regime orders HALF OF ALL NATIONAL FORESTS OPEN FOR DECIMATION BY LOGGING

Rich countries are dragging their feet on producing new plans to combat the climate crisis, thereby putting the poor into greater danger.

All governments are supposed to publish new plans this year on cutting greenhouse gas emissions, but so far only a small majority have done so, and some of the plans submitted have been inadequate to the scale of action needed.

meltdown will impact Arctic marine carbon cycles and ecosystems, new study warns

A new study led by Jochen Knies from the iC3 Polar Research Hub has found worrying signs that climate change may be undermining the capacity of fjords to serve as effective . The findings suggest that the capacity of polar oceans to remove carbon from the atmosphere may be reduced as the world continues to heat up.

Carbon majors and the scientific case for climate liability

Will it ever be possible to sue anyone for damaging the climate? Twenty years after this question was first posed, we argue that the scientific case for climate liability is closed.
Here we detail the scientific and legal implications of an ‘end-to-end’ attribution that links fossil fuel producers to specific damages from warming. Using scope 1 and 3 emissions data from major fossil fuel companies, peer-reviewed attribution methods and advances in empirical climate economics, we illustrate the trillions in economic losses attributable to the extreme heat caused by emissions from individual companies. Emissions linked to Chevron, the highest-emitting investor-owned company in our data, for example, very likely caused between US$791 billion and $3.6 trillion in heat-related losses over the period 1991–2020, disproportionately harming the tropical regions least culpable for warming. More broadly, we outline a transparent, reproducible and flexible framework that formalizes how end-to-end attribution could inform litigation by assessing whose emissions are responsible and for which harms. Drawing quantitative linkages between individual emitters and particularized harms is now feasible, making science no longer an obstacle to the justiciability of climate liability claims.

Fig. 1 | Estimated change in global mean temperature and local extreme heat by carbon majors. a, CO2 emissions in megatonnes of carbon (MtC)  per year from the top five emitting fossil fuel companies (‘carbon majors’).  

b, Changes in global mean temperature caused by the cumulative emissions  of each carbon major. Vertical axis denotes the magnitude of global warming resulting from each company in each year. Solid lines show the mean from 1,001 FaIR simulations, each run with a different calibrated parameter set; shading 
shows the 90% range across the FaIR ensemble. 

c, Changes in 1991–2020 global average subnational Tx5d (temperature of the five hottest days in each year) from each carbon major, estimated by combining the FaIR simulations with CMIP6-based pattern scaling. Solid line shows the mean and shading shows the IPCC uncertainty ranges arising from interacting FaIR and pattern-scaling uncertainties. 

d, Marginal economic effect of increases in Tx5d on economic growth in percentage points per degree Celsius (p.p. °C−1) across a range of regional annual mean temperature values. Solid line shows the mean estimate and shading shows the 90% confidence interval (CI) range, based on the observed relationship between Tx5d and economic growth. Positive values indicate that cool regions benefit from higher temperatures, whereas negative values indicate that warm regions suffer from higher temperatures.

"Great information on aerosol-cloud interactions [...]and charge separation in storm systems."

(For the record: Yes, less aerosol means less clouds, affecting the albedo, but NO, we can't put back the sulfur in the ship fuel, and yes that crap has detrimental health and environmental effects.)

Hello fediverse solarpunks! We’re Solarpunk Presents Podcast, a podcast run on a shoestring budget by two lady solarpunks, one in Canada (@arielkroon) and one in Germany (@xtinadr@wandering.shop). We’re not great with technology, but we happen to both be PhDs from the opposite sides of the spectrum between STEM and Humanities/the Arts, and we’re united in our working towards solarpunk futures.

Our podcast is an interview-style podcast where we talk to guests and each other about various aspects of solarpunk, renewable energies, political action, and more. Often, our guests are people who wouldn’t label themselves as solarpunks, but are (and have been, often for years) quietly involved in working towards making the world a better place to live in. We strongly believe that once you get past the aesthetic and hype about renewables, solarpunk at its core promotes compassion, kinship with non-humans and humans alike, and grace for our fellow human beings as we all work together to survive on our shared planet.

You can support the podcast on Patreon, with tiers starting at just $1 USD! We host a monthly solarpunk hangout that all of our patrons are invited to, and all Patrons at the $3 tier and up receive early access to our episodes. There are more tiers with more extras, so head to patreon.com/solarpunkpresents to see them all. We also take one-time or recurring donations over at our PayPal: paypal.com/donate/?hosted_butt
Even if you’re not in the financial position to donate, we really value other forms of support, such as positive reviews on your podcatcher of choice (it helps us be more visible and reach more solarpunks!), or subscriptions to our YouTube channel and comments there. As writers, we thrive on feedback, and we are continually trying to make the podcast better and want to know what you think.

As I’ve said before, it's rough out there for anyone valuing the environment, social justice, compassion, and more, and we want to keep doing our part to keep hope alive. We want to broaden the imagination of what it's possible to do to contribute to a better world, no matter who you are, where you live, or what life stage you're at.

I was just given a quote from a statement Thich Nhat Hanh wrote in 2015, shortly before the Paris Climate Summit:

“Many of us have become alienated from the Earth. We are lost, isolated and lonely. We work too hard, our lives are too busy, and we are restless and distracted, losing ourselves in consumption.”

Side note; I wrote a song about the (utter lack of) results of the Paris Accords:

The overwhelming majority of people in the world – between 80% and 89%, according to a growing number of peer-reviewed scientific studies – want their governments to take stronger climate action.

But at least for now, this global climate majority is a silent majority.

The current mismatch between public will and government action amounts to a deficit in democracy.
