Confirmed: the May average of atmospheric CO2 at Mauna Loa was 430.5 ppm, first time above 430 ppm in 15 million years, and a big jump from a year ago, again: +3.6 ppm!
Overall, we're still speeding in the wrong direction.

11 weeks apart.
They were willing to overlook the lies, Jan 6th, fraud, the arrest, the charges & the rape to celebrate his return to the White House.
Now they feign surprise that the sociopath we all warned was a sociopath is indeed still a sociopath.

This is the problem with the timidity and fake balance of BBC political coverage. A historic betrayal of Ukraine to Russia by Europe's former ally is boiled down to an utterly superficial row about a man's clothes www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...
How Zelensky's lack of a suit may have fuelled Oval Office spat
The Ukrainian president's military-style attire came up before he was upbraided by President Trump and JD Vance.

Great thread. Pardon this Limey for butting in. All I can add from my own experience is 30, 30, 30: 30°C+30° slope+30km/h wind=1.8m flames=extreme fire behaviour. July 2018 watched 100ha forest in Wales (high rainfall) burn for 3 weeks until rain put it out. Frightening.

True to its long history of exploitation and obfuscation, Meta makes it as hard as possible to delete your Facebook account. It keeps changing the procedure. In some cases it directs you to the wrong tabs. But this video by Gauging Gadgets provides a simple guide. www.youtube.com/watch?v=HZIJ...

Climate Change:
It's real.
It's us.
It's serious - and already dangerous.
But there are solutions.
The science is clear: the faster we cut emissions, the less suffering we will cause, and the better off we'll all be.
