Number 4 on the Climate News Weekend Watchlist is a new video by @drgilbz.bsky.social discussing how neo-liberalism misunderstands the costs of climate change, and asks if capitalism can “fix” climate change. Worth watching:

Hottest UK summer on record. No big surprise there. Climate heating ratcheted the likelihood, severity & impacts of the heatwaves and drought. This year's record heat was around 130x more likely thanks to climate change. But the record won't stand for long. www.metoffice.gov.uk/about-us/new...

The War on Cars @thewaroncars.bsky.social · 30/08/2026

On the one hand, some people want to make it so that kids and other people aren't crushed to death by cars. On the other hand, some people are upset that they might have to pay attention, slow down or be inconvenienced by about 15 seconds. So you can see how it's a "war on cars."

Climate heating is changing the Himalaya region and threatening glaciers worldwide. And when glacier stability is undermined, sudden failures can occur, leading to horrible incidents like this one. The higher temperatures rise, the greater the risk of sudden and devastating collapse.

We know exactly what works: • Rapid fossil fuel phase-out • Massive renewable expansion • Nature restoration • Fair climate finance Emissions are still rising, but the tools to reverse this exist. The only missing ingredient is political will. Demand better. Vote better. Act better.

My entry into the warmest year discourse... Over the years, I've used a couple of methods to estimate annual mean anomalies before they happen - using projected ENSO signals at the end of the previous year, or just from the relationship between the YTD data and the final annual average.

Really? Is that it? If this is all that’s come from COBR, it’s pitifully inadequate. As crisis deepens, it beggars belief that there aren’t eg plans to increase resources for the fire service, support for farmers, max workplace temperature, funded community cool spaces & obvs ban on new fossil fuels

Past greenhouse gas emissions, primarily from burning fossil fuels, means that peak temperatures in the UK today are hotter (by around 3°C) than they would otherwise have been. Future burning of fossil fuels means heatwave temperatures will get hotter and hotter until we reach net-zero emissions.

Climate change is here, and we're all suffering the effects. And if we want to stop it worsening - and I sure as hell do - we need to cut emissions to net zero. The science is clear, why isn't the journalism? This fab piece from the FT is the exception, not the norm www.ft.com/content/e16e...

Key context: the Amazon stores roughly 100 billion tonnes of carbon. Cool Earth backs Indigenous firefighters in Peru keeping that carbon in the trees. Avoiding those emissions beats capturing them later. Protect first, CDR for residuals only.

The bloody bullshit of caring 'falling on women', it is their priverlidged choice that men are never given.

And for what it's worth, all the EGLL (Heathrow) data I could find: June 2026's dewpoints at high temperature a real jump up on history. We see a lot of concentration of future / present "T" potential in the face of climate change, but very little "Td" and their compounding impacts (if at all).

Hating this sticky uk heat? Same. To avoid more of it we need to reduce the planet's thermostat by cutting our emissions. AND we need to plan for these conditions - adapting our homes, worklives and behaviour to cope.

1976 was long, hot and dry. But our climate has changed and this week's heatwave is now hotter and stickier as a result. We're likely to break 1976's température record today. And more concerningly, humidity is hovering at potentially dangerous levels. Take care out there.
