10 to 100 El Nino cycles is the blink of an eye, an El Nino alone feels meaningless, so a 7 day wondow is a tiny grain of significance we should not risk building any castles upon, IMHO. #JustSaying

Because they want to convey to their degenerate offspring the advantage of starting from ahead of the pack. The best ones don't need it and the worst should be denied it. The practice weakens, ossifies and distorts the economy to no good end, IMHO.

This new tool, the Carbon Impacts Tracer, which translates carbon emissions into real-world climate impacts like heat exposure and coral bleaching, looks super useful. ➡️ carbonimpactstracer.com

New tool directly links carbon emissions to amount of environmental and economic damage caused

Carbon Impacts Tracer can be used to estimate climate impact from emissions across eight different factors, including lost food production

Five things to understand about an “ice-free” Arctic

The precise year of the first "ice-free" Arctic summer will likely come down to weather events. For people and other life in the Arctic, the exact timing matters less than the long-term trend.

David Rowe @davidrowewtl.bsky.social · 13/09/2026

Inter annual weather variability is large. Summer melt is strongly controlled by a few weeks of high pressure, storms, and wind patterns. 2012 combined already thinned ice with a very unusual sequence of pressure and warmth followed by a cyclone that broke up and exported ice. That hasn't repeated.

We aren't doing nothing. We are doing too little. Until we encounter a mega death climate catastrophe we won't know just how much leeway for inaction we had. I don't want to find out, so I am prepared to leave some leeway unused. The general population, it seems, is not motivated like me. :-(

In effect we do eat plastic, don't we? It's critical to volume production and packaging. Without it we'd be able to eat far less. No one has a plan to go to zero.

From the 1992 letter: "The greatest peril is to become trapped in spirals of environmental decline, poverty, and unrest, leading to social, economic, and environmental collapse." To me we seem trapped. We have run out of time. All choices now are ugly. :-(

This was repeated in a "second notice" in 2017. We have not got CO2e in retreat as we needed to have done. We now need to go on to a war footing we could have avoided. If we don't the reckoning will be even worse. #JustSaying

In 1992 we read the World Scientists’ warning to humanity, signed by ~1,700 scientists (including a majority of living science Nobel laureates). It warned of a “collision course” with nature, highlighted greenhouse gases and fossil fuels, and called for moving off fossil fuels.

The report’s recommended strategy is an “overshoot, peak and decline” pathway: with emissions cut hard enough to keep the peak low and short, then to use sustained net negative pixie dust to bring longterm warming back below 1.5°C before global society collapses. ;-( www.unep.org/news-and-sto...
