We have already rewound the climate clock to the Pliocene (3C hotter, sea levels ~20m higher)
If we keep on as we are, the even hotter Miocene beckons
Inaction will see our world reprise the early Eocene hothouse, bringing potential oblivion

Really bad news for coffee drinkers.
If you think it's expensive now, you haven't seen anything yet. Coffee and chocolate are going to become luxury goods as a result of climate change.
Coffee hasn't been this expensive in decades—see how much prices have risen since 1985 in one chart
Grocery-store coffee prices rose 41% in a year, a surge the U.S. hasn’t seen in decades.

Most people hear “heat pump” and think of small air-source units at home. But Germany is building one of the world’s largest heat pumps in Mannheim: a 162 MW river-source system using heat from the Rhine.
Big reminder that heat-pumps scale far beyond households — they can decarbonise whole cities.
