Dr. Emily Judd: "The impact of anthropogenic climate change is (and will continue to be) determined by the rate of change (meaning how quickly CO2 and temperature change) much more than the absolute temperatures, themselves."

Just sayin'
the present rate is leading to about 8°C warming (fyi: that paper was in 2022. It didn't get less.)

Gee, if only the USA had government policies and programs to transition to a lower carbon emissions economy.
Average person will be 40% poorer if world warms by 4C
Experts say previous #economic models underestimated impact of #globalheating – as well as likely ‘cascading #supplychain disruptions’
Australian scientists study suggests average per person #GDP across the globe will be reduced by 16% even if warming is kept to 2C above pre-industrial levels. This is a much greater reduction than previous estimates, which found the reduction would be 1.4%.

(We will have a severe problem much sooner me thinks - like in the coming 5-10 years - because of food insecurity, famines. Last year 40% global crop loss was calculated for 2025 due to weather disasters alone. There's no sense in calculating some imaginary GDP if there's nothing left to eat.)

"Accelerating Temperature Rise
The Northern Hemisphere temperature was 12.86°C on March 19, 2025, a record daily high and 1.65°C higher than 1979-2000."
"Very high temperature anomalies are forecast over the Arctic Ocean for November 2025. "
#FYI #MichaelMann #PBSNewsHour
"EPA said it is reconsidering the scientific finding that greenhouse gases are a danger to public health. This comes as research shows average global temperatures in 2024 likely rose above a 1.5 degree Celsius threshold that for years has been a red line for climate change."
#FYI #PaulBeckwith video lecture and literature review
""Each boreal summer (summer in the northern hemisphere) the vegetation springs to life and captures huge amounts of CO2, drawing down the global atmospheric levels about 7 ppm. This so-called natural sequestration peaked in 2008, and has been declining since"
#FYI #JustHaveaThink #Arctic #TippingPoint
"The Arctic region has been a massive store of carbon for thousands of years. Now it's warming between 3 and 7 times faster than the global average and that carbon is escaping into our atmosphere."

"A dominant high-pressure system is forecast over the continent and a low over the west/northwest, which is also a common signal for La Niña springs in Europe, as seen in past data."

Prof Steve Keen exposes the drastic harm of climate policies based on spurious economics.
This 17- min yt debunks the execrable climate work of Prof Wm Nordhaus, author of a paper savaging The Limits to Growth (on deceptive premises) shortly after its 1972 publication.
We have all been paying for policies, laws, and practices dismissive of the effects of global heating ever since. It's bad, folks!

While this may’ve been a coincidence, the Doomsday Clock news coming up just after Reeves announced “reducing the environmental requirements placed on developers” seemed apposite. Especially followed by the commitment to Heathrow expansion. To allow myself a moment of melodrama, Labour has declared war on nature and the climate in the name of money.
Treading more lightly... my not-entirely-rigorous 2024 environmental audit.
The conclusion: flights make all the difference.

Ultra-rich using jets like taxis, climate scientists warn
Flying in a private jet for a single hour can release more carbon dioxide into the atmosphere than the average person produces in a year.
The carbon dioxide emissions rose by 46% between 2019 and 2023.
The researchers calculated the emissions from 18,655,789 flights by looking at the time in the air and average fuel consumption of the aircraft models.
