Without human-induced climate change, the current drought in Syria, Iraq & Iran, causing millions to abandon their land, would not have been one. New @WWAttribution study disentangling drought, climate change, water management, conflict: https://t.co/D6AKqdgC9Z
Migrating whales travel across "superhighways" every year, facing threats like overfishing and ship strikes. Crossing various countries and stretches of international waters, their journeys know no boundaries. Neither should our approach to protecting them! 🌊🗺️🐋 #HighSeasTreaty
I am honored to presenting "characteristics of Arctic sea ice" at the @nansenlegacy symposium. Compiling results from already 67 peer reviewed @MOSAiC sea ice publications. An impressive collection (thanks to the team!) plus findings of our @AWI_Media#ArcWatch 2023 expedition.

In this video, you can see the offshore eddies spinning the sea ice; the sea-ice factories of open water near the coast called ‘polynyas’; the smaller-scale near-shore ocean movements where it’s shallower; and the sea ice torn apart by wind and currents.

If the EU unfreezes Hungary’s funds (blocked because of corruption) just to get support for the new budget, the EU will finally show to everyone in the world that it can be blackmailed by mini-autocrats amongst its ranks.

Net-zero targets are all well and good.
But how countries get there matters a lot. It's the area under the curve that matters for warming.
Delay emissions cuts and you not only make net-zero less likely, you also make climate change worse along the way.
