Chart below specifically shows range of estimates of warming caused by the International Maritime Organization's 2020 regulations. (That's Hansen's estimate at the top)

New from me: How can China meet its 2030 emission commitments after falling badly off track? The country will have to very substantially overachieve its clean energy targets and limit plans for runaway expansion of coal power & petrochemical expansion in the next 5-yr plan.

Original photograph was a depiction of construction workers—blue collar people who built New York City but were rarely acknowledged & were certainly underpaid—while this one is a depiction of well-known billionaires whose AI empires are built on stealing the intellectual property of everyone else.
This...looks terrible? Is the magazine making some point about what AI still can't do, because otherwise, I don't get why you'd go out with something that looks like it was put together with safety scissors and Elmer's Glue.

Ways to mitigate risk:
🔹 Use congestion pricing (or another variable tax on city driving)

Climate migration is difficult to study, and even harder to predict, because a complex constellation of factors guides the decision to pick up and move. But some experts say a historic population shift has already begun, and Western Washington should start preparing now to become a “climate haven.”
Is the Pacific Northwest ready for a wave of climate migration?
