Global warming is cutting the production of phytoplankton in the North Atlantic, undermining the entire food web and limiting its ability to soak up carbon, a new study reveals. Looks serious….

We are losing Antarctica and when we lost Antarctica we lose the planet as Earth will be too hot
Temperatures in the Antarctic Peninsula have reached a record-breaking high of 15.4C for June, and ice is melting at abnormal rates during the current winter

EACH MAY TEMPERATURE INCREASE, FROM 1980 TO 2026
Acceleration, increase from 2010, spike from 2023
Shows the same acceleration https://t.co/dC9HCb9Cwd

‼️According to new research released @nuclearban, in 2025, the nine nuclear-armed states spent $16.8 billion (19%) more on their nuclear arsenals than the year before, a total of $119 billion, or $3,768 per second on nuclear weapons. More here: https://t.co/9amB5Nnz3r

“If Earth’s natural resource economy had an actual currency, then the role of humans within this economy would be to create counterfeit notes. Nothing humans produce can be used as actual collateral in the ecosystem”
New Anthropocene paper. Earth still operates in "Holocene logic", buffering heat imbalance. Anthropocene = Pressure. But, BAU, reaching 3°C in 2100 & we get "stuck" in a Hothouse trajectory for 1000 years. Anthropocene risks turning into a state. No Good.

Today is World Ocean Day and our oceans are being bombarded by all kinds of threats like pollution, over-fishing, acidification, etc…
But as a meteorologist, I’ll discuss the rapid warming!
We often focus on air temperatures. But the real story is in the oceans.
More than 90% of the excess heat trapped by greenhouse gases is retained in the ocean.
Each year a new assessment is released, and in 2025 the world’s oceans gained an astounding 23 zettajoules (ZJ) of heat.
In relatable terms that’s equivalent to:
🌊 37 years of humanity’s current annual energy consumption
🌊 About 380 million Hiroshima-sized atomic bombs worth of energy
🌊 More than 200 times the world’s annual electricity generation
And that’s just one year!
Why does this matter?
Warmer oceans can fuel marine heatwaves, coral bleaching and death, sea level rise through thermal expansion, contribute to bigger land heatwaves, and provide more energy for heavy rainfall and tropical cyclones. Ocean warming also stresses marine ecosystems that support fisheries, biodiversity, and coastal economies around the world.
The ocean has shielded us from much greater atmospheric warming by absorbing the vast majority of Earth’s excess heat. But that protection comes with growing consequences for ocean health.
On this World Ocean Day, it’s worth remembering that the ocean is not just responding to climate change, it’s bearing the brunt! We must protect our oceans.

Wait. For. It. NASA animation shows Global temperatures warm slowly at first, then rapidly. Warming is accelerating! Here’s the truth. It’s real. It’s us. And we have to come to terms with it, and deal with reality, rather than deceiving ourselves, and hoping it goes away. It won’t… without intervention. #climate #globalwarming #science #climatechange
Today's accelerating global warming is the fastest in Earth's history. The rate of change is too much for large mammals (60% already face extinction due to habitat & wildlife destruction and pollution). The cause? Capitalists' domination of nature (scientific consensus). Rethink.
