Keepin' it cool ❄️
At TEDx, Juan Enriquez made the case for geo-cooling, now.
The oceans have been absorbing heat, making most public warming forecasts "wildly understated."
"We could overshoot by 6-8°C, not 1.5"
"This is going to be the coolest year you are going to see for the next 50-100 years, and it hasn't been a cool year."

News this morning is simply that Pope Francis has had an uneventful night and has rested. We can assume his situation remains critical. We’re expecting another medical briefing tonight. Beautiful portrait by @Raul_Berzosa.
Tonight’s report — prolonged asthmatic episode, needing oxygen and a blood transfusion, and the Pope in pain — comes as a shock. But the doctors yesterday warned there would be days like this. Let’s hope tomorrow is better. It’s a lot for an 88 yo to endure. Please pray for him.
