Nach über 50°C in der Türkei, sind es jetzt 51°C im #Irak im Schatten (!). Schwere Waldbrände in Griechenland, Regierung bittet EU um Hilfe. Nur weil in Mitteleuropa ein angenehmer Sommer herrscht, bedeutet das nicht, dass es auch woanders so ist.

Breaking News!
Code Yikes!
Yesterday, Antarctic sea-ice extent reached 4 standard deviations below the 1991-2020 daily mean. The other years on record where this happened are 2023 and 2024.
In a normal distribution, 4 SD's is a 1-in-31,600 event. These are not normal times.

Meine Hoffnung (im Mai, Juni) war, dass sich der Ozean weiter abkühlt. Nun steigt die globale #Temperatur leider sehr stark an.

Glacier melt is intensifying freshwater loss and accelerating sea-level rise – increasing disaster risks globally, this @esa study shows.
The world needs urgent #ClimateAction alongside #DRR measures to reduce the cascading risks.
