It looks less than good in Tirana 🇦🇱 tonight. Hooligans and troublemakers no doubt, but against the background of genuine grievances.

We are approaching the warmest global surface air temperature anomaly on record (1.15C on Nov 18 2023) as record El Niño approaches peak: pulse.climate.copernicus.eu/

«Europe has now experienced 5 CONSECUTIVE MONTHS of unprecedented deadly heatwaves, drought and fire. It started in May, and has been relentless since.
Next year will be worse, potentially far worse.»

We are pushing beyond our planet's safe operating space. But science also gives us solutions. If your research helps keep us within Planetary Boundaries, apply for the 5th edition of the @FrontiersIn Planet Prize. It's the final stretch for applying. frontiersplanetprize.org/con…

Every climate denier in the world has contributed to this disaster ... Trump and his cronies more than most.

«Why are climate scientists not surprised about mountains being destabilized by glacier melt and permafrost thaw?» @rahmstorf
Why are climate scientists not surprised about mountains being destabilized by glacier melt and permafrost thaw?
Because they have long predicted that as a result of #globalheating.

In the 35 years of my career as a climate scientist, I’ve read “climate alarm cancelled!” well over 100 times. All the while global temperatures have risen exactly as predicted since the 1980s, with all the expected effects of increasing extremes, melting ice and rising seas.

Latest "plume" of El Niño forecasts, via @climatesociety. Consensus dynamical forecast is now an HISTORICALLY STRONG max Nino3.4 ~3.0C (statistical forecasts point toward very strong ~2.5C). There is still a wide range of estimates, with some models reaching astonishing ~4.7C.

«AMOC-kollaps kan ikke lenger klassifiseres som lav risiko.» @jrockstrom
AMOC kollaps kan inte längre klassas som låg risk. Vi har hittills underskattat sannolikheten för inbromsning och måste nu revidera risk läget, som är i nivån av en nationell säkerhetsrisk som måste tas på stort allvar.

Around 1 million species now face extinction, many within the next few decades. We are facing multiple crises at the same time.

Excellent BBC article on the risk of a catastrophic ocean circulation change in the Atlantic.
Time to act before it’s too late. #AMOC

This electric car was built in 1912 and got a #solar power upgrade in 1960. It isn't for lack of solutions that we haven't solved this crisis.

"No more climate change worship", Hegseth tells US military leaders 🙄.
They know better.
I know that, having been invited to speak at a NATO workshop on Climate Change Security.
Climate science is not woke or religion or whatever, it’s physics.
It got two physics Nobel prizes.

BREAKING: The earth has reached its first catastrophic tipping point linked to greenhouse gas emissions, with warm water coral reefs now facing a long-term decline and risking the livelihoods of hundreds of millions of people, according to a new report.
The report from scientists and conservationists warns the world is also “on the brink” of reaching other tipping points, including the dieback of the Amazon, the collapse of major ocean currents and the loss of ice sheets.
