@AlcaldiaMHmx increíble que no quede ni UN solo basurero en vía pública en la Escandón Sección I - por favor vuelvan a poner la infraestructura!

protesting electric vehicles is like protesting chemotherapy for not only killing cancer cells

i'm no musk fangirl but blocking the people who are building solutions to the climate crisis is actually INSANE

1️⃣ It's hard for people to visualize removing tons or billions of tons of CO₂. What if we talked about CO₂ removal (CDR) like a time machine (e.g., this machine will take us back 5 minutes*)?

*ignoring the hysteresis in the relationship between CO₂ and climate change impacts.

Bangladesh and Myanmar order mass evacuations. Cyclone Mocha makes landfall as one of the most powerful hurricanes. https://t.co/OnWnKO7mps

Cyclone Nargis, which was just about as powerful as Mocha is likely to be, was the worst natural disaster in the history of Myanmar. In 2008, it killed more than 140,000 people and affected 2.4 million more.

Second, every bit of warming matters. The warmer the planet gets, the more widespread and pronounced the changes in both average climate and climate and weather extremes become.

[Prof. Katharine Hayhoe @KHayhoe]

Here are the big takeaways from the @IPCC_CH Synthesis Report released today.

First, climate change has already caused widespread and substantial losses to almost every aspect of human life on this planet, and the impacts on future generations depend on the choices we make NOW.

[Prof. Katharine Hayhoe @KHayhoe]

The latest @IPCC_CH 6th Asst Synthesis Report comes out tomorrow; but after three decades of these assessments, it's already clear that --
Climate is changing
Humans are responsible
The impacts are serious
We aren't doing enough to prevent them
And our future is in our hands.

[Ed Hawkins @ed_hawkins]

Tomorrow, @IPCC_CH will release the Synthesis of the 6th Assessment, summarising all six of the previous component Reports.
There will be no surprises.
Human activities, mainly burning fossil fuels, have already warmed the climate by more than 1°C, causing severe impacts.

“Small Tech” —founders, employees, and great innovation— will bear the true brunt of the SVB meltdown. Not “Big Tech”. Google doesn’t bank at SVB.
