@dugartogo @SallyStrange and floods, fires, melting ice, hot seas etc etc..but sadly think food shortages and crop failures will be a factor soon. Excellent article from Dan Saladino here about how precarious our food chains are. His book #EatingToExtinction is an interesting read and bleak at times but similar to #TheMinistryForTheFuture there are some really positive food stories around #heritage varieties, protein from bacteria, permaculture and some extraordinary people championing proper food. https://www.theguardian.com/books/2021/sep/17/are-we-eating-ourselves-to-extinction

Blimey... Just finished reading #TheMinistryForTheFuture a strangely positive book in spite of many grim examples of #ClimateCrisis incidents. First chapter describing a #Heatwave incident in #India is extraordinary.. sadly suspect we'll be seeing similar heat related stories and deaths in the real world soon. #ClimateChange #Permaculture #Rewilding #RenewableEnergy #Airships #CarbonCoins

Really amazed that with all this talk of #Cerberus #HeatWave in #Europe there has been almost no mention at all of the #WetBulbTemperature. This is the temperature where people become unable to sweat to cool down. It's related to humidity but next few days these will be a real issue particularly in tourist areas of #Spain and #Italy. The first chapter of #TheMinistryForTheFuture gives a graphic description of a #WetBulb event in #India.. not an easy read but sadly a taste of things to come with #ClimateChange. This graph show the risks from temperature and humidity. #WetBulbGlobalTemperature

As foretold in #kimstanleyrobinson book #TheMinistryForTheFuture which I highly recommend.
