[Republicans against Trump @RpsAgainstTrump]

In a statement to CNN (October 2023), Trump’s former Chief of Staff John Kelly described Trump as "a person that has no idea what America stands for and has no idea what America is all about…A person who admires autocrats and murderous dictators. A person that has nothing but contempt for our democratic institutions, our Constitution, and the rule of law…God help us."

More climate fun!

Let's count the total number of days that global sea surface temperatures have been at or above 21.0°C (69.8°F), by year, since 1982.

1982-2022: total days = 0
2023: total days = 90
2024: total days = 128 (so far)

#ClimateChange is about consumption of richest people in our global society

50% global emissions are emitted by top 10% of population = anyone earning >$37k/yr

90% of global emissions just 50% of population

We need climate justice to save our planet.

The rich need to step up

The more you tell the simple truth on this issue the more people switch off and dismiss it as hysteria. But this is really happening. The future simply is not what 99.9% of the public thinks it is right now. The insanity of our lack of reaction cannot be overstated.

[Prof. Eliot Jacobson @EliotJacobson]

It may be too much to take in all at once, but h/t to @leonsimons for pointing me to NOAA ERSST V5 SST monthly data beginning 1854, current through March, 2024.

I included the 50 year average for 1900-1949 for good measure.

This really is the beginning of the end of everything.

Jaw-dropping news: Trump promised to scrap climate laws if US oil bosses donated $1bn – report. Trump promised to 20 executives at Mar-a-Lago dinner to increase oil drilling and reverse pollution rules among other pitches. @ECOWARRIORSS

#ClimateChange last 12 months have seen the warmest ocean temperatures on record

The super-heated oceans have hit marine life hard and driven a new wave of coral bleaching.

If this does not worry you - nothing will.

The cost of fashion
10% of annual global carbon emissions according to the World Bank

It causes every year a half a million tons of plastic microfibers to be dumped into the ocean, the equivalent of 50 billion plastic bottles.

That's right, North Atlantic Sea surface temperatures are once again at a record high for the day as of yesterday.

#climatechange is real

Scientifically established relationship between atmospheric carbon dioxide and global temperatures.

As greenhouse gases rise every year so global temperatures 🌡️ go up and extreme weather 🌪️☔️☀️ events increase.
