New word for many of you. "Solastalgia" The emotional distress caused by environmental change, particularly when it affects the place you call home. A manifestation of climate anxiety. Nearly 85% of young adults 16-25 are at least moderately concerned about the climate, with 59% extremely worried.

Absolutely devastating study released last week on North American pollinator biodiversity: "We assessed the extinction risk of nearly 1,600 species of vertebrate and insect pollinators and found that more than one in five species is at risk of extinction."

This morning - zero rain in the forecast. Late afternoon - 100% chance of rain and T-storms tonight. I've noticed sudden changes in the forecast for awhile now, well before the NOAA and NWS cuts. Am I just experiencing climate bias or is local short term forecasting less reliable?

Any guesses how many birds and mammals are killed on the road every year? "Estimates can reach to 340 million of birds killed on the roads in USA, 194 million birds, 29 million mammals in Europe and 17 million of birds and mammals in Latin America"

Nebraska farmers love to complain about socialism. Says this Nebraska farmer: "...in 2020... we were subsidized by the government... it ended up being a very profitable year for farmers." Sounds a lot like socialism to me. No self-awareness at all. Makes me livid youtu.be/jWJVyhTv0j8?...

Watching the NPR/PBS Doge hearing. 45 minutes in, the hearing largely has been Marjorie Taylor Greene criticizing NPR CEO Katherine Maher over her past political statements and time leading Wikipedia, and PBS over its documentaries about trans people and programming featuring a drag queen.

Your great-grandchildren might live to witness global temperatures reach 7C even if we manage to limit CO2 emissions 🧪 The odds of such extreme warming are roughly 1 in 10 in a "moderate" emissions scenario, the researchers estimate #climate www.newscientist.com/article/2473...

newscientist.com

Even moderate CO2 emissions could lead to 7°C of warming by 2200

There's a small chance of very high warming even with moderate future emissions, according to a computer model exploring what could happen in the next thousand years

Why does Trump want Canada and Greenland? Money of course. He is a not climate denier, he and his cabinet are climate disinformation propagandists. Blue good, red bad. From Nature 2024.

to me, the most amazing thing is how slow these temperature changes are. the big changes in the paleo record, e.g., 20C over 100 million years, correspond to 0.000002C/decade. humans are warming the climate at 0.2C/decade — 100,000x faster.

🇨🇦 Canadians! When you think about how our country is warming, note that: - Three quarters of the warming we've experienced so far has occurred over the last 50 years; - We're on track for more than DOUBLE the amount of warming thus far by 2100 - Warming *continues after* 2100
