I made the same mistake with Driscoll products. Found out after they're US but packaged in canada 🇨🇦. My Maplescan app has been a huge help. Driscoll now is being accused of sending fruit with high pesticides to Canada.

23,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 joules. That’s the amount of heat the oceans absorbed in 2025. A number so huge it’s almost meaningless…until you realise it’s roughly 40× humanity’s annual energy use. The ocean is buying us time. We’re running out of it. www.theguardian.com/environment/...

The injection of thermal energy comes amid an increasing rise in sea levels and continuing acidification

If you look at tourism cities/states, there's an increase in bankruptcy/foreclosures. For example, Las Vegas, Florida, and South Carolina. More than a year ago, I said this would result in billions being siphoned out of the economy, plus international students going elsewhere. #bankruptcyblog

A paper in Scientific Data presents how the Greenland and Antarctic ice sheets mass has changed since the 1970s through 2023, reporting that it has lost 11.3 trillion tonnes of ice since 1979. ⚒️🌎🧪
go.nature.com
Mass balance of the Greenland and Antarctic ice sheets from the 1970s to 2023 - Scientific Data
The Greenland and Antarctic ice sheets are major drivers of global mean sea level rise and are predicted to continue to do so in the future. However, they also represent the largest source of uncertainty in projections of future sea level rise making robust estimates of observed ice sheet mass changes critical. Here, we compare and combine 42 independent estimates of ice sheet mass balance derived from satellite observations of temporal changes in ice sheet flow, volume, and gravitational attraction to determine the ice sheet mass balance from 1972 (Greenland) and 1979 (Antarctica) until 2023. We then use regional climate models to partition the total mass balance into contributions associated with surface mass balance and ice dynamical imbalance. The ice sheets lost 11,309 ± 565 billion tonnes of ice between 1979 and 2023, with glacier dynamical imbalance driving 84% of the ice loss and surface mass balance the remainder. This dataset can be used to track the contribution of the ice sheets to sea level rise and constrain projections of future sea level rise.
