Very well done video showing the simultaneous, compound climate shocks going on all over the World. If people could only see how much extreme weather is happening daily in all parts of the World, they’d understand that we are way off kilter.

Just attending a 3-day workshop on the danger of abrupt ocean circulation changes. Discussions are quite worrying. E.g. in 35 to 45 % of high quality models, convection in the open North Atlantic collapses in the 2030s due to #globalheating. -> Major climate disruption. ☹️

What's beyond Code UFB?
Yesterday, a new record-high for the global sea-surface temperature was reached at 21.12°C, beating the previous record of 21.10°C.
New records should continue almost daily for about the next six weeks, please forgive me if I don't report them all.

Great piece in @Nature today exploring if its too late to keep warming below 1.5C (yes, at least without overshoot) but also highlighting the accelerating energy transition that is occurring worldwide. I was happy to help with a few figures in the piece: nature.com/immersive/d41586-…

Yesterday, temporarily, planet Earth took its first step over the 2.0 degrees Celsius barrier.

"These dynamics are not included in models, & if we were to include them, it would increase projections of sea level rise by up to 200% – not just for Petermann but for all glaciers ending in the ocean, which is most of northern Greenland & all of Antarctica.” -Prof. Eric Rignot
We could be vastly underestimating future sea level rise...

Yesterday was the first day CO₂ at Mauna Loa was 425 ppm. This is:
-likely the first time in the past 800,000 years.
-possibly not seen in over 3 million years (mid-pliocene warm period).
-A CO₂ forcing equal to 2.5-4°C of warming and 5-25 meters higher global sea level.

Sea level is rising twice as fast in the SE and Gulf than the global average, multiple recent papers have found. In this week’s Climate Classroom, I spoke to sea level rise expert @johnenglander about the science and it’s impact. nam11.safelinks.protection.o…

‼IMPORTANT‼
IPCC reveals that Earth's climate cannot be stabilised under 1.5C or 2C, that its own carbon budgets are fake.
IPCC confirms that climate change is now inevitable centuries and millennia into the future.
From 2019 Ocean & Cryosphere report.

Thought-provoking panel #AspenIdeasClimate with @susanbgoldberg, the @nytimes Bret Stephens and @johnenglander on Bret changing his mind on climate change.
John says he can convince anyone of climate change in 20 minutes.
Why do skeptics change their minds?

A former climate change denier gets religion ( went on same trip to Greenland I did, with John E.).
"Greenland's Ice is Melting, but..." Essay today's @nytimes by @BretSte65333711 about our recent fact-finding trip. Opinion piece about climate change and rising sea level; wide-ranging and thoughtful. #climatechange nytimes.com/interactive/2022… @damonwinter

From lava tunnels to visiting a geothermal plant. Most exciting - turning #carbondioxide into stone! All underground. Thx to @CarbFix

Greenland Part 2: Helo twd Swiss Camp w/massive Jakobshavn glacier, 40 miles long & over mile thick. It's famous as the source of iceberg that sunk the Titanic. Produces ~10% of #Greenland icebergs; approx 4 b tons of ice into the sea. #extremeheat #sealevelrise @johnenglander

Anyone thinking long-term/real estate should tune in. It'll affect our 10yr investments

Rising sea levels are inevitable, as @britishports members heard from @johnenglander and the Rising Seas Institute in our recent webinar. It’s not just homeowners and councils but critical infrastructure operators that need plan for this.

…, Houston is the 10th fastest sinking city in the world with a rate of 1.95 centimeters per year. The Southeastern Texas city is the only place in the Western Hemisphere included in the top 10 fastest sinking cities.

I cannot recommend this book highly enough. Superbly researched and written.
There are lots of others. I hope you don’t mind if I share a few:
“It is in my view one of the two or three most important books to appear this century.”

Giant, 90ft Deep Craters Are Appearing on the Arctic Seafloor. The craters are forming as a result of thawing submerged permafrost on the edge of the Beaufort Sea in northern Canada, with retreating glaciers from the last ice age driving the change. newsweek.com/ocean-crater-pe…
