Back from Greenland (via Reykjavik Iceland) - leading my annual program about climate change and rising sea level. The personal experience defies description, but even the airplane seat map helps put the scale in perspective. https://t.co/Cee3H2NeVi
Very well done video showing the simultaneous, compound climate shocks going on all over the World. If people could only see how much extreme weather is happening daily in all parts of the World, they’d understand that we are way off kilter.
Just attending a 3-day workshop on the danger of abrupt ocean circulation changes. Discussions are quite worrying. E.g. in 35 to 45 % of high quality models, convection in the open North Atlantic collapses in the 2030s due to #globalheating. -> Major climate disruption. ☹️
@EliotJacobson@jembendell Generally overlooked is relationship of global sea level to global temperature. As planet warms, new SLR equilibrium approx 20 meters per degree C, as shown by blue line to red line, over millennia. With current 1.5 degrees, it's time to plan our move to higher ground.

February continues Earth's record warm streak https://t.co/ro1cHpRsuU Hard to overstate how ominous these record global temperatures are. Watch this for the next several months, to see if the dramatic up trend persists. More heat > glacial melting > higher global sea level.
What's beyond Code UFB?
Yesterday, a new record-high for the global sea-surface temperature was reached at 21.12°C, beating the previous record of 21.10°C.
New records should continue almost daily for about the next six weeks, please forgive me if I don't report them all.

Great piece in @Nature today exploring if its too late to keep warming below 1.5C (yes, at least without overshoot) but also highlighting the accelerating energy transition that is occurring worldwide. I was happy to help with a few figures in the piece: https://t.co/c1pOJLU5tm
