Southern California now sees longer fire weather seasons, like many other places worldwide
Human-caused climate change means hot, dry, windy conditions happen more often, priming landscapes to burn more easily if ignition occurs

🌡️🔥Climate change isn't a distant threat—it's a public health crisis now. Our study shows heat-related deaths in many cities could surpass annual COVID-19 deaths in just 5–10 years at 3°C warming. Urgent action is needed!

Now that more countries have submitted national GHG inventories in the latest format, I'm starting to write a bit of code to compile it all.

I compared 22 identical climate-related posts on Threads vs Bluesky over the last 3 months, and the difference is shocking.
Normalized engagement on Threads dropped nearly 2/3 + my following dropped, while Bluesky engagement held steady + following quadrupled.
What’s driving this?

Each year, I adopt 2 new climate-friendly habits.
Originally, I focused on reducing my carbon footprint.
Then, I looked at how to catalyze change at scale: communicating, engaging with others, supporting climate action groups.
This year, I’m going deeper, focusing on what powers our fight: love.

For those who (should) care, the North Atlantic Sea Surface Temperatures are close to record high for the time of the year.
The shifting baseline syndrome makes our minds lose interest.
Excluding recent years shows how extremely hot this 40,000,000 km² ocean still is:

September 2023 Temperature Update 🔥
Warmest September & largest anomaly ever measured, shattering previous September record.
Warming since August concentrated in polar regions.
Near certain that 2023 becomes the warmest year.
Likely 2023 exceeds 1.5 °C.
