Was there any coverage of the recent record warmth in both the Arctic and Antarctic? Multiple global datasets now confirm these records, and I think it's really quite striking.

Here's some very quick plots showing NOAAGlobalTempv6 data from October too. And see my earlier posts.

This year's #Arctic sea ice freeze-up is clearly the latest on record for the Baffin Bay region (located between Greenland and the Canadian Arctic Archipelago). The extent of ice cover is a record low for the date there.

Code UFB!!!

The currently predicted October 25th global anomaly is 1.28°C (1981-2010 baseline). The "delta" between the 1981-2010 baseline and the 1850-1900 baseline for October 25th is 0.62°C.

Adding, we get 1.28°C + 0.62°C = 1.90°C above the pre-industrial baseline.

Thankfully, the village was evacuated already, but one person is missing and everyone else’s homes are destroyed.

Make no mistake: this is a climate disaster.

Some good news—official data released today shows US solar generation continues to grow rapidly and is on track to set new record highs. In March, solar output was up 35% compared to the same time last year!

Renewables were 92% of new power added in 2024. Low carbon sources now accounts for 41% of worldwide electricity.

Though, I can’t help but look at this graph and think about how much better it would look if we weren’t retiring nuclear plants so much faster than we’re building them.

Fifty years from now, in 2075, the world will be considerably hotter, perhaps as much as 3-5° Celsius (4.5 to 9° Fahrenheit) above the pre-industrial average.

Experts say we need to focus on building greater resilience into ecosystems now to help species get through the next half century.

There is a severe problem happening in the bee world:

Bees are dying & this year 2025 80% of the Bee population has died.

This is catastrophic for the planet.

So I am asking my sweetest friends with money & pull: lets get Honey Tree Healing Farm going to repopulate bees, trees & feed the world.
