It's official: 2015-2025 are the 11 warmest years on record . With the global temperature 1.42°C above pre-industrial levels, we are living through the consequences of inaction. Every fraction of a degree matters. #GlobalWarming #ClimateAction

The Carbon Storage Breakdown: The roughly 861 gigatonnes of carbon stored in forests isn't just in the trees. It's distributed across the ecosystem: 44% in soil, 42% in live biomass (trees and roots), 8% in dead wood, and 5% in litter .

The U.S. push to expand nuclear power dismisses over 95K metric tons of radioactive waste that remain without a permanent home. Until we solve storage, transport, and safety challenges, new reactors risk more costly, unresolved legacies.
