Update: This summer was the hottest summer since 1880 when modern recordkeeping began. August 2024 is the 15th month in a row of record-breaking monthly temperatures. More: https://t.co/Hq6PSIHdIG

Los Coches Eléctricos contaminan mucho menos que los de combustión, confirmado por la revisión de 13 estudios franceses e internacionales. En estos se analizaron todos los factores directos e indirectos; tanto de fabricación, como de uso y generación.

Anyone who thinks that temperatures in the 1930s were as high as today's is confusing global temperatures with temperatures in the U.S., which makes up 2% of the surface area of the globe.

Globally, the 1930s were much much cooler than today.

[Ed Hawkins @ed_hawkins]

If only we had detailed information telling us the climate is changing far faster than any time in human history...
...and if only we had an unambiguous physical explanation for why those changes have occurred...
...then some politicians would still deny any problem exists.

Great read from @amywestervelt on the Forbes contributor network, and how it boosted Mike Shellenberger's public profile.

Like Amy, I was also once a journalist at https://t.co/Qc7Kj0Rxi7. It was pretty critical for me, but also very frustrating. 🧵

With May 2024 coming in as the warmest May on record, global temperatures have been at 1.63C above preindustrial levels over the past 12 months in @CopernicusECMWF's ERA5.

A pretty sharp jump up from prior global temps we've seen, akin to the increase between 2010 and 2016:

"A Fertile Ground for Disinformation", uncovering how the 2024 farmers’ protests in Europe were used to spread #climate misinformation and anti-EU climate action narratives.

This 1 minute video of me debunking the “cloud seeding caused the Dubai floods” has been watched by humans cumulatively for 56 days so far. It’s still a tiny fraction of the time people spent watching the original misinformation.

Big changes in extreme precipitation are happening. Here is the observed change in the severity of heavy precipitation events, due mostly to climate change.

Heat pumps are a highly efficient and mature technology for home heating.

"Yet, in major economies such as the UK and Germany, heat pumps are the subject of hostile and misleading reporting across many mainstream media outlets."

Read the fact check.

Cherry blossom flowering date in Kyoto, Japan

As the climate warms, the natural world is responding. In this case, the trees are blossoming earlier in the year.

A clear explainer by the authors of last week's AMOC shutdown paper

They propose a way that *may* let us spot when shutdown is imminent

NB they're *NOT* saying it is imminent or unavoidable (yet)

It would be devastating though - we must not risk it

Elon Musk tweets, "Farming has no material effect on climate change."

This is wrong. If you look at the data, you find that a quarter of the world’s greenhouse gas emissions are due to food production, the majority of these from farming.
