This -> “We usually think about warming as a gradual, quasi-linear change of temperature over time – it slowly gets warmer everywhere. But nonlinear changes occur across the entire system"

In the #arctic non-linear changes are leading to more extreme weather events

My interview with @nature.com

“A new direction in our work is to understand the microbial inhabitants of the atmosphere. Is it just a dispersal mechanism for dormant cells, or does it harbour active microbes that grow and divide?”

The misleading use of the *salvation* word and concept.

They suggest solutions that may not *save* us, maybe just "delay" the problem, or "suspend" for some time.

The only solutions are through cutting #emissions, optimizing/reducing consumption of natural resources
In @theguardian.com
about geo engineering
“If these ideas are otherwise harmless, and work, they might yet save us.”.

No they won’t. The only “idea” that can save us is bringing greenhouse gases emissions to zero !

Plant trees, make more green areas in and around our towns.
People who live in greener neighbourhoods smoke and drink less on average, and those who make regular visits to #nature tend not to smoke.

To help you see the utterly lunacy Norway's oil and gas policies, consider the 20000 km² area that yesterday was cleared for exploration - mainly in the Barents sea.
What they show is the total exploration area in a red thick line. So where are the new areas?

Durante negoziati sul #clima alla International Maritime Organisation:

"Gli Stati Uniti chiedono quindi all'agenzia delle Nazioni Unite di "interrompere tutti gli sforzi per far proliferare in altre sedi l'agenda profondamente ingiusta che si riflette nell'Accordo di Parigi"."

Altrimenti no.

"Se dovessimo raggiungere l'obiettivo fissato dall'Accordo sul clima di Parigi e stabilizzare il riscaldamento globale tra 1,5°C e 2°C, i nostri nipoti potrebbero ancora vedere almeno un quarto dei #ghiacciai svizzeri"
