A recent heatwave in Central Asia was up to 10°C hotter compared to the preindustrial climate – a change described by one of our scientists as "frankly bonkers."
Our study also found an unusually rapid increase in March temperatures in the region. We've never seen anything like it before.

In these times of culture war in the U.S., nuanced articles like this one by Franklin Foer are very rare. Critical of #Trump, but also of #Columbia University's administration and, above all, some faculty who also bear responsibility for the chaos. But he ends with a note of hope.
“Trump’s autocratic presence unbalances every debate,” Franklin Foer writes. “But just because his administration is exploiting the issue of anti-Semitism does not mean that anti-Jewish activism is not an issue at Columbia.” theatln.tc/MF5RbJlj

Preliminary thoughts on the German election results so far:
1) Chasing the far right vote by demagoguing on migration has brought the CDU/CSU it's second worst performance in history. It's in first place, but it's a weaker result than anything Merkel posted.
