Weather word of the week: polar vortex.
The polar vortex is a low pressure area—a wide expanse of swirling cold air—that is parked in polar regions. During winter, the polar vortex at the North Pole expands, sending cold air southward. This often results in outbreaks of cold temp in the U.S.

A new report found that rising global heat is now killing one person per minute around the world. Fossil fuel usage has caused toxic air pollution, wildfires, & the spread of diseases. Heat-related deaths have surged by 23% since the 1990s to an average of 546,000 per year between 2012 and 2021.

With current pledges, the world's on track for 2.6°C of warming in 2100 compared to preindustrial levels.
10 years ago, before the Paris agreement, it was 3.6°C
20+ years ago, we thought it would be 4-5°C
So 2.6°C is better, but the problem is that climate impacts are way worse than we predicted.
