When it comes to my soapbox, I generally preach big picture. Like, you know, the end of Earth's livability and humanity's survival. But what about how every morning I have one square of dark chocolate? Or how people like my hubs would die if he didn't have coffee every day?

Attribution science allows us to link climate impacts to fossil fuel companies. In response, the industry and Republicans are trying to stop climate liability laws and lawsuits, and seek legal immunity like gun manufacturers got two decades ago. You don't do that unless you're guilty.

The bleak report is only outdone by the bleak fact that this bleak article talks about 1.5° C as if it was still attainable. 1.5° C is dead.
And doubtless very smart people will now talk about waste heat, primary energy etc etc in defence of the “energy transition”

And so-called ‘centrist’ politicians would rather we slide into fascism & authoritarianism than rebuild our world to give us a chance of surviving where we’re heading - because survival would mean dismantling the corporations that own these ‘centrist’ politicians.

The amount of CO2 in the atmosphere increased by a record amount last year, says @wmo-global.bsky.social.
The record annual rise comes amid growing signs that forests, peatlands, oceans and other natural "sinks" are failing to absorb as much CO2 as they normally do.

If you breathe oxygen and drink water, climate stability should be the ONLY matter of concern.
Not to diminish other matters of concern, but Trump’s attack on clean energy jeopardizes the ocean species that produces half the world’s oxygen and is the base of the food chain. What could go wrong? Warming seas threaten key phytoplankton species.
