The Amazon forest is reaching a tipping point and starting to collapse - Washington Post

Dusty wells. Streams ebbing away. Pristine reserves aflame. Some scientists think the tipping point is already here.

Going way back for today’s #FieldworkFriday. Here’s me and my eldest child doing field work downstream of Elliot Glacier on Mt. Hood, #Oregon. Our project focused on how #climatechange was affecting #streamflow from catchments with #glaciers. But a Debris Flow made a mess of one our sites! Rain on snow & ice sitting on unstable weathered volcanic rock produced pretty spectacular #geomorphology in action.

Week 168 of fasting on #Fridays for the #ClimateCrisis. Week 168 of striking from working and shopping on Fridays for the #ClimateEmergency. #MindTheGap #uprootthesystem #globalwarming #heatwave #heatwaves #flood #floods #climate #climatechange #ClimateStrike #ClimateAction #ClimateActionNow #ClimateJustice #FridaysForFuture #fast #friday #fridays #FridayVibes #fridayfeeling #intermittentfasting #Arctic #glacier #savetheplanet #savetheearth #savetheocean #savethebees #savethetrees

Over on Twitter it’s like the Penguin is in charge of Gotham.

UPDATE: Trump admits he had dinner with Fuentes. Both the idea that Trump was unfamiliar with Fuentes and that he was FORCED to have dinner with him because Kanye brought him along is not credible. https://twitter.com/jonathanvswan/status/1596195825700544516

@jeffjarvis some people seem to want to recreate a Twitter-style business model. But the issue is that the model itself is flawed, it's not just about Musk.

#ClimateChange: Over 20,000 died in Europe’s summer #heatwaves, figures show

Excess summer deaths:

🇬🇧 3271
🇫🇷 10420
🇪🇸 4655
🇩🇪 4500

“Overwhelming evidence” of the dangers that extreme temperatures present to #PublicHealth

“The summer of 2022 was the hottest on record and we can expect more and hotter heatwaves in future” say Scientists

For everyone who is worried about #climatechange and trying hard to be #carbonneutral and feel that this is near impossible, please bear in mind that there are many other ways to have a positive impact on the world. Being kind and spread love to others, have a positive influence on next generations and love the best you can be right now. This is so valuable and also a way to balance out your #footprint on our beautiful planet #earth.

Ocean warming and ocean acidification driven by climate change decrease the nutritional quality of some marine organisms, causing disruptions to the ocean food web

Coccolithophores are a very important marine organism. Although they are microscopic, they play a large role in the carbon cycle, and they're an important food source in the ocean

-I used to break news here. That I’m going to stop doing.
-I have some exclusive conversations coming up inside Ukraine, on boosters, on the elections and on 2024 on @inthebubblepod & will use Post & Mastadon first.

I remember when Twitter was just a harmless social app where we talked about our lunch and made dumb jokes or shared goofy memes. Now all anyone talks about is who's been red-pilled by the woke mob, and it's only going to get worse, because it's owned by the King of Brainworms

@jdannan Clearly there are things we don't understand about ice ages, but we understand ice ages well enough that their occurrence does not pose a problem for attributing present-day warming to humans. That's basically the point I was trying to make.

Why do ice ages come and go?

1. You start with variations in the Earth's orbit. You see, the Earth's orbit is not a perfect, unchanging thing, but varies over tens of thousands of years.

2. These variations change the amount of sunlight falling on the Earth as well as how it's distributed. This is what paces the ice ages, and you can find nearly exact correspondence between the ice age timing and these variations.
