I don't want to say this was completely unexpected, because this is something changes in ice coverage can affect, but increasing #seismic #hazards is not the first impact of #ClimateChange that comes to mind.

Learning interrupted
"Climate shocks are disrupting children’s education, putting their learning and their futures at risk."
"A new UNICEF analysis reveals that at least 242 million students in 85 countries or territories had their schooling disrupted by extreme climate events including heatwaves, tropical cyclones, storms, floods and droughts in 2024, exacerbating an existing learning crisis."

Flying trampolines
100-plus kilos flying object hazards are occupying many Aussie gardens. With wind they become airborne missiles and are propelled across space. The missiles have the potential to harm life and destroy objects. In the end they are just eyesores and plastic junk .

This is a wake up call: A fire at Vistra Energy's Moss Landing battery storage facility in California destroyed thousands of lithium batteries – and a significant amount of the state's clean energy storage capacity. Fire was allowed to burn itself out rather than engaging with it directly. Pollution post fire are water pollution from hazardous chemicals related to lithium batteries as well as plastics. #water #pollution #hazards #lithium #batterystorage #energy. https://www.newscientist.com/article/2464625-fire-at-worlds-largest-battery-facility-is-a-clean-energy-setback/
