I make short and immersive films to evoke positive change. See for more and follow me on

Oef… Uiterlijke veranderingen van de op een na grootste gletsjers van Oostenrijk in slechts 4 jaar tijd 😱
Daar blijft niet veel van over…

Canada has had 4,241 wildfires since the beginning of 2023. The fires have scorched at least 11 million hectares — the most in recorded history. This is a fire near #Osoyoos forcing evacutations.

We're in a #climatecrisis. Time to #ActOnClimate

This is where we are headed as politicians continue to live in denial, setting priorities on everything else, but never climate. #JustStopOil #ClimateBreakdown

WE NEED RAPID CUTS IN EMISSIONS *NOW* - particularly methane, like that venting from the intensive fracking in NE BC. (No, LNG is not a climate transition fuel or clean, it's fracked methane and at least as bad as coal. #ClimateBreakdown #cdnpoli #bcpoli https://t.co/iUUSKlv0T7

"What is playing out all over the world right now is entirely consistent with what scientists expect. No one wants to be right about this. But if I’m honest, I am stunned by the ferocity of the impacts we are currently experiencing."

Catastrophe

#ClimateCrisis records tumble, leaving Earth in uncharted territory - scientists

"I'm not aware of a similar period when all parts of the climate system were in record-breaking or abnormal territory"

The North Atlantic ocean is 2.1 degrees Celsius warmer than it was just 30 years ago.

It's on track to rise above 25 degrees Celsius in the next few weeks.

It is official. The ocean is now in places higher than body temperature. Florida coral reef already bleached, now about to get roasted, grilled, pan fried #ClimateBreakdown #ClimateCrisis

[Prof. Peter Strachan @ProfStrachan]

Why scientists are using the word scary over the #ClimateEmergency

"More and more scientists are now admitting publicly that they are scared by the recent #ClimateCrisis extremes"

Zagreb, Croatia. We think it's bad luck. It's not. It's a #ClimateEmergency
as #ClimateBreakdown slowly unfolds across the planet, we will keep seeing more and more of such #climate catastrophes. We need #ClimateAction now!

[Michael Flammer #KlimaVor8 @Jumpsteady]

Extreme weather events every single day now. All of this and much more happened within one month only! India, Spain, Turkey, USA, Indonesia, Japan, South Korea, Canada, Morocco, Croatia, China, Mexico. The list goes on… Why are the news channels not full of it? #ClimateBreakdown

#ClimateBreakdown

Scientists say Russia is warming at least 2.5 times faster than the rest of the world, melting the long-frozen tundra that covers about 65% of the country's landmass and releasing greenhouse gases stored in the thawed soil.

Stunning drone footage has revealed details of the Batagaika crater, a one kilometre long gash in Russia's Far East that forms the world's biggest permafrost crater.

Thawing permafrost has already threatened cities and towns across northern and northeastern Russia, buckling roadways, splitting apart houses, and disrupting pipelines. Vast wildfires, which have become more intense in recent seasons, exacerbate the problem.

No government will ever admit “our country is now unliveable”. Power grids have already become as strategically important as food in uninhabitable countries. If the AC goes, it is instant death for millions #uninhabitable #ClimateBreakdown

[Nick Oldridge @Nick_Oldridge]

If you receive the news that dramatic spikes in ocean temperatures aren’t much of a concern, maybe even pleasant for swimming in, then it’s time to think again…

@elonmusk Maybe this tweet could be the official definition of ‘irony’ in the Oxford dictionary.

@brianfit Hey Brian, great. Thanks for sharing. I believe 2022 was for all visual AI companies the year of mastering the core tech, while 2023 will all be about creative control of AI.
