New from 404 Media: Google Earth has introduced an AI feature that lets anyone fabricate completely bullshit satellite images. In our own tests, we added a “bomb blast and crater” to an area of Los Angeles. This is a misinformation time bomb, will 100% be abused www.404media.co/google-earth...

A week late but excited to share @nationalacademies.org report on Attribution of Extreme Events and their Impacts. Had the opportunity to work with amazing colleagues to reflect on the incredible progress in EEA and review the breadth of applications @climate-done.bsky.social @jmarlon.bsky.social

Attribution of Extreme Weather and Climate Events and Their Impacts
Decades of data and research indicate that human-caused climate change is altering the frequency and intensity of several types of extreme events, such as heat waves and extreme rainfall events. Even...

This is Spokane, Washington. Right now. First weekend of August. Climate change is why sparks can find so much more to burn...and can burn things faster #SpokaneFire #WashingtonWildfire #PNWWildfire

A lack of snowpack, high temperatures and high winds have created a “perfect storm” for fire in the Rockies. Find out who's impacted, and why. #UnnaturalDisasters

When Bill Gates Yelled At Me About Climate Change
David Fenton recalls Bill Gates yelling at him in 2010 about climate change. 15 years later, Gates still gets it wrong and he's not alone.

Severe flooding has devastated #Texas. @jmarlon.bsky.social (@yaleclimatecomm.bsky.social) says flash flooding isn’t new, but has increased due to #GlobalWarming. She urges citizens and leaders alike to take climate change and fossil fuel dependency seriously. @marykekatos.bsky.social, ABC News:

Extreme weather events like Texas rain are more likely to occur due to climate change, scientists warn
Climate change is likely to make extreme weather events like those experienced in Texas occur more intensely and more frequently, scientists are warning.

Last year, billion-dollar disasters occurred every 1 to 2 weeks on average. But Trump axed FEMA’s most effective climate resilience program, BRIC, gutting funding for flood protections, wildfire retrofits, storm-resilient power lines, and infrastructure. This is reckless. grist.org/politics/fem...

FEMA moves to end one of its biggest disaster adaptation programs
In an internal FEMA memorandum obtained by Grist, the Trump administration announced it plans to dismantle the Building Resilient Infrastructure and Communities program.

Let's be clear: there is absolutely nothing "efficient" about firing essential public safety officials right before fire season. Cutting funding for the US Forest Service will only increase the number of homes lost and lives destroyed during the next major wildfire.

Excited to share this new piece that Jagadish Thaker (JT) and I wrote for the Atlantic Council GeoTech Center (lnkd.in/ekuWrump) - “Mapping public opinion to drive climate action in India.” Read more here: www.atlanticcouncil.org/in-depth-res...
Knowledge about climate change in India is limited in most states (left) and districts (right).

It's quite clear what Americans actually want:
Dot plot showing the percentages of registered voters grouped by Liberal Dems, Mod Dems, Mod Reps, Conservative Reps who think the US should use renewable energy versus fossil fuels. The dots show clear majorities of Liberal Dems, Moderate Dems, and Moderate Republicans think the US should use more renewables. 43% of Conservative Republicans think the US should use more renewable energy sources. In contrast, minorities in all cases think the US should use more fossil fuels. The largest group is Conservative Republicans - 38% of registered voters from this group think the US should use more fossil fuels.

These are data from nationally representative surveys. The maps will be updated soon with the latest survey data from 2024, but they will not change much. Source: climatecommunication.yale.edu/visualizatio...
Map of US counties showing almost all are yellow or orange, meaning that 50% or more of the adults in that county think developing clean energy should be a priority for president and Congress. National average is 66%.
