Brace yourself.

One of the most brutal Arctic cold outbreaks on record is gathering momentum and moving through North America right now.

Wind chills are hitting extremely dangerous levels of -70°F (-57°C) in Wyoming.

[Igor Nikolic @ComplexEvo]

@maclennane1 lol, wel... the joys of hyper-specialised academia. The topic seems/is obtuse, except that lack of proper uncertainty and scaling methods in modelling can leads to insane policy decision "because the computer says no" This job is about teaching models to say maybe and it depends

[Fossil Fuel Treaty Initiative @fossiltreaty]

636 fossil fuel lobbyists are at #COP27 right now.

200 of them are on government badges.

This industry is the top cause of the climate crisis.

They do not want to solve it, they want to profit from it.

We need a Fossil Fuel Non-Proliferation Treaty. https://t.co/FeS0pr3QFM

With the melt season now underway, current levels of #Antarctic sea ice extent are the lowest on record for the date...

Recently I learned about a man who has trained 1,000+ people to block wind and solar projects.

I read through all his training materials, presentations, and seminars.

Here's what I learned about him and how his students plan to "win the war on clean energy."

Has anyone ever seen this graph in $*volume-terms (ideally per year and also with fossil energy)?

Yesterday Lammenezan (640 m asl) in France rose to the extraordinary value of 30.3°C, setting a new monthly record.
10 October records were broken and highs exceeded 33°C in some locations.
Also Benelux, Germany and Switzerland reached astonishing highs.@extremetemps

Klein detail: er zijn geen kunstwerken besmeurd. Alleen de glasplaten vóór die kunstwerken. Kunnen we even ophouden over mekkeren over kunstwerken die geen moment in gevaar zijn en het eens over de weerrecords die nu zo ongeveer wekelijks sneuvelen hebben?

@BrankoMilan is rightly scathing: "Now, we are to believe that “friend-shoring” is somehow different. It is not. It just mercantilism under a new name and trade blocs in a different costume."

Let’s go back to mercantilism and trade blocs! https://t.co/yQefjvuC0N

Here is the distribution of mammals on Earth today, by biomass.

🐘 Wild mammals = 4%*
🐄 Livestock = 62%
🧍‍♀️ Humans = 34%

*This includes marine mammals. Mostly whales. If only counting mammals on land, it's 2%.
