A version of the large language model #GPT4 with access to the #IPCC’s 6th report answered #ClimateChange questions more accurately than the original GPT-4, according to climate experts.

Besides enjoying the snow, views, great food and company, important topics such as operation and group dynamics, self-evaluations, a SWOT analysis, and future projects and collaborations were discussed at this years EClim work retreat in Stoos. ❄️✍️🏼

Here's what that tidal wave of oil & gas cash could have done…

“The $1.5tn returned to [oil & gas] shareholders in the form of dividends & buybacks 2020-2022 could have fully covered the investment requirements in all clean fuels in the [1.5C] NZE Scenario btwn 2023-2030”

Oh.

The news about the record #glacier ice loss in Switzerland published yesterday by @scnatCH and @glamos_ch caused a burst in international media coverage.
Among others this piece @Reuters with impressive images by @denisbalibouse documenting our work on Griesgletscher this fall

Heisse Tage, gefolgt von heissen Nächten, ohne Abkühlung dazwischen, könnten gegen Ende des 21. Jahrhunderts zur neuen Norm werden. Längere, heissere und häufigere Hitzewellen sind vor allem in Lugano und Genf zu erwarten.

"Historic" floods and record rainfall, at least 34 dead, 30,000 displaced in floods in South India's state of Andhra Pradesh - with excess rain of 342 mm, 39% more than long term average

"worst flood in 140 years"

#ClimateFacts from the latest #IPCC #ClimateReport on the Arctic

Current Arctic Sea ice cover is projected to reach practically ice-free conditions at its summer minimum at least once before 2050 under all scenarios.

Look at this incredible transition: from a rough, glacial landscape to a green fjord within just 60 years.
#Glacier retreat is the visual expression of #ClimateChange and its speed!

If you read only one country’s statement at #COP26 today, please read this one here by the Maldives’ Minister of Environment, Aminath Shauna:
“The difference between 1.5 degrees and 2 is a death sentence for us”

[Leo Hickman @LeoHickman]

Here is how the wording of that key "phase down coal" paragraph changed over three days - and five fiercely negotiated iterations - at #COP26

[Prof Sonia I. Seneviratne @SISeneviratne]

How has COP26 shifted the dial on the climate crisis? Useful visual guide from @guardian.
It is a shame to see Switzerland in orange: We urgently need improved pledges for 2030, i.e. a new #CO2 law that is ambitious & acceptable for majority of population.
