Now that the Sept and Oct data are (belatedly) in, it looks like 2025 will be the second warmest year in the record (~80% probability). The last three years are in a class of their own.

All nations committed under the Paris Agreement to limit global warming to 1.5 degC for good reason. Instead many governments are beholden to the fossil fuel lobby and even subsidize fossil fuel use with your money. We’re now at 1.4 degC & emissions are rising not falling.

Trump has already done more than enough to be declared the worst president in US history ... the only remaining question is how far he will take down America before his term ends.

Decades will pass before America can recover from this disaster.

Despite efforts to reduce halibut bycatch, the bottom trawl fleet still catches and kills millions of pounds of the fish annually, stoking debate over the role trawlers have played in halibut's decline. (Reported with @seattletimes.com and Northern Journal) www.adn.com/alaska-news/...
Alaska bottom trawlers face renewed scrutiny amid halibut decline
To reduce their unintended take of halibut, vessels in the bottom trawl fleet have an escape hatch in their nets that allows some of the larger halibut to swim free.

This is not the message that the right wingers are giving nor the YouTubers who universally hate London's mayor. They have made up their own minds with views of who to believe and they don't believe in fact not hard statistics. Dangerous factions trying to undermine democracy.
Here’s what you won’t hear from some commentators on social media: in the year to October, London recorded 10,000 fewer violent crimes leading to injury than it did in the twelve months before I was elected.

With the support of President Lula, essentially all of Brazil’s government outside of the Ministry of Environment and Climate Change is promoting actions that push us toward tipping points, both for the Amazon Rainforest and the global climate.
