“‘People tend to think about trees and grasses dying when we talk about heatwaves. The Atlantic is 5C warmer than it should be - that means organisms need 50% more food just to function as normal,’ she says.” bbc.com/news/science-environ…

Climate action should be "proportional and pragmatic", Sunak says. Excellent. In other words, given that we're facing the greatest danger humanity has ever confronted, we should be pulling out all the stops. Oh, turns out he means the opposite.

For those wondering, if the distribution was normal (hint. it isn't) and the climate was not changing (hint. it is.), then 6.4 standard deviations would correspond to odds of about 1-in-13,000,000,000 (1-in-13 billion).
Wow, just wow. The planet is breaking. Antarctic sea ice extent is the headline for me this morning. There was actually a net *decrease* in ice extent day over day, and it's mid-winter there, peak freeze season. Extent is now 6.4 standard deviations below the 1991-2020 mean.

Code Yikes!!! The planet is now at 15 consecutive days of record global surface temperatures, likely the hottest 15 days in the last 100,000+ years. Also, today's global temperature of 17.114°C once again breached the Paris agreement, at 1.51°C over the 1850-1900 baseline.
