It would have been good timing for a planet-cooling volcanic eruption that would have suppressed what are going to be exceptional levels of global warming next year...
Indonesia is dealing with a lot right now.
An eruption at Anak Krakatau has shut down 6 airports, including Jakarta’s main airport. Hundreds of flights have been affected.
At the same time, forest fires are sending smoke across parts of Indonesia and into neighbouring countries, while nearly 2,000 students and teachers have reportedly fallen ill in a food poisoning outbreak linked to the new free school meals programme prompting a full police investigation.
Masked far-right agitators blocked Europe’s busiest port today, trapped locals, and caused miles of gridlock.
Kent Police made zero arrests.
Peaceful climate protesters who did the exact same thing at Dover were fast-tracked straight to prison.
"No arrests made"
One rule for fascists, another for the rest
If this had been a peaceful climate or Palestinian protest, they would have been dragged off to jail in no time
Disgusting double standards

The most interesting part of this report is James Orr admitting on camera that there's very little financial support for Reform coming from the UK.
The vast majority of their donations come from abroad.
Foreign money trying to destroy UK democracy with Farage as the vessel.
Notre climat est littéralement en train de partir en cacahuète. Pour cette 6ᵉ #canicule de l’année, les 40 °C sont de nouveau dépassés, en plein mois de septembre.
Aujourd’hui, 283 records mensuels sont tombés, datant parfois du 19ème siècle. Certains pulvérisés de 4 °C, avec une facilité déconcertante.
Et ce n’est pas terminé : plusieurs de ces records pourraient être battus à nouveau dès demain voire même le record national...
Dorénavant la saison des canicule en France dure 5 mois : de mai à septembre.
The latest data is once again showing the preliminary global sea-surface temperature at a record high.
"Tomorrow, and tomorrow, and tomorrow, creeps in this petty pace from day to day, to the last syllable of recorded time; and all our yesterdays have lighted fools the way to dusty death."
Ignoring reality isn't a cost-free option.
Ignoring reality means *making a choice to ignore reality*. It's tangibly choosing to do the wrong thing.
Persistent, stubborn ignorance is the *least* cost-free option.
@ProfBillMcGuire@andyburnham I hope it’s not true., but I’m genuinely baffled how you could take on that job and willingly ignore the worlds leading scientists.. even Thatcher sounded the alarm.

Code: Boiling!
The Earth Energy Imbalance data for June, 2026 was just released, and over the last 12 months the planet has warmed at an average rate of about 14.45 Hiroshimas per Second.
This is equivalent to making about 10.8 billion cups of tea per second.
Check out the train of powerful hurricanes including a category 5 fueled by the once-in-a-generation Super El Nino. Hawaii should continue watching this train of hurricanes.

🚨 No more sugarcoating. The UN just confirmed the 1.5°C climate limit is effectively dead. We will breach it within years, not decades. We are officially entering a dangerous "overshoot" era. Current policies track us to a lethal 2.6°C.
What does crossing 1.5°C actually mean? It means a massive surge in compounding weather disasters. We aren't just talking about hotter days, as we are looking at abrupt, unpredictable severe droughts, collapsing ice sheets, and extreme floods happening all at once.
It gets worse. Rising sea levels will trigger permanent coastal submersion, threatening to completely swallow island nations. Simultaneously, brutal severe droughts will collapse global crop yields, causing skyrocketing food prices and widespread shortages.
We are completely unprepared.
The dumbest take as ever from @EssexPR who apparently prides himself on being a father while sitting back cheering on the Fossil Fuel industry as they make the world far more dangerous for all kids including his own.
