The Amazon rainforest is home to over 3 million animal species. It stores 4x as much CO2 as the earth emits in a year. Losing the Amazon means losing to climate change.

We must protect the Amazon. #ActOnClimate

California Blackout Risks Intensify Amid Soaring Temperatures, Wildfires

Grid officials warn the state faces a power deficit Monday as a historic heat wave continues, while thousands have fled their homes to escape spreading wildfires. https://t.co/BIIxmoS7j3

[Blue Sky Analytics @blueskylab]

On other side of the world - California is suffering from endless wildfires, and an extreme heat wave overstressing the grid leading to blackout of the worlds 5th largest economy

[The Wall Street Journal @WSJ]

California on Monday faced its greatest risk of blackouts so far this summer, officials said, as soaring temperatures stressed the power grid and rapidly spreading wildfires killed two over the weekend https://t.co/JDowjkpLqa

This is NOT humanitarian disaster. This is CLIMATE APOCALYPSE.

[Al Jazeera English @AJEnglish]

UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres, who is visiting flood-ravaged Pakistan, says he has “never seen climate carnage” on such a scale, blaming wealthier countries for contributing to the devastation ⤵️

🔴 Eerie looking storm clouds over Badin, Sindh this evening. Monsoon reminding us that its one of the most powerful source in nature. #Pakweather #WeatherUpdate #PakistanFloods

[Blue Sky Analytics @blueskylab]

Two sets of modeling to be done for EVERY part of the world

1. Very active monitoring of rivers, lakes, glaciers to do early warnings

2. Random flooding/ rainfall/ inundation scenarios on computer and publishing outcomes for various stakeholders

[Eric Feigl-Ding @DrEricDing]

Scale of the disaster—beside 1/3 underwater:

📌1350 people killed
📌50M people displaced
📌900K livestock deaths
📌1M houses washed away
📌40+ reservoirs breached
📌220+ bridges collapsed
📌90% cropped damage
📌$10B loss to economy

[ICIMOD @icimod]

⚠️ After the devastating #floods, Pakistan now faces an unprecedented food security crisis.

We assessed potential crop production losses in 🇵🇰’s Sindh Province using a #RemoteSensing approach.

Could we have done better job managing 600,000 displaced people, helping them / supporting them; we hope using better data, for sure.

But we need to find data/ intelligence/ give adequate coverage

[Blue Sky Analytics @blueskylab]

Climate change is the only global problem which doesn’t see money in your bank account, color of your skin, your education level, or any aspect.

It impacts and WILL impact everyone equally.

[fatima bhutto 🇵🇸🇱🇧🇮🇷 @fbhutto]

The global south will not survive this century without climate justice. You in the west are talking about paper straws, we in the global south are talking about reparations. My latest for @guardian: https://t.co/vChg9eN1X3

[Blue Sky Analytics @blueskylab]

Pakistan emits less than 1% of global GHG emissions. We need to provide flood modeling, prediction, inundation levels data to relevant agencies/ orgs in Pakistan & globally ASAP for atleast some mitigation, adaptation, and disaster management

[António Guterres @antonioguterres]

I have never seen climate carnage on the scale of the floods here in Pakistan.

As our planet continues to warm, all countries will increasingly suffer losses and damage from climate beyond their capacity to adapt.

This is a global crisis. It demands a global response.

[Steve Smith @dirstevesmith]

@LeoHickman @hausfath I always find it sobering that CO2 has increased by 100 ppm since I was born. Frightening. And apparently the government want to frack and drill more. Lots of talk of net zero by 2050 but they seem to forget we need to half emissions in the next decade to keep below 1.5°c

[Leo Hickman @LeoHickman]

@hausfath This chart by @OurWorldInData using @gcarbonproject data starkly shows the sharp rise in global emissions since the early 1950s

https://t.co/NQtOWxrpa4

[Leo Hickman @LeoHickman]

It is truly sobering to think that the world has heated by...

a full 1C

...since the Queen came to the thrown in 1953

Global CO2 emissions:

1953 - 6.6bn tonnes
2021 - 36.4bn tonnes
