Melting is faster than earlier known, also in #Antarctica, because of reasons, we first now start to understand. #TheConversation https://theconversation.com/meltwater-is-hydro-fracking-greenlands-ice-sheet-through-millions-of-hairline-cracks-destabilizing-its-internal-structure-207468

Eunice Foote, who was the first to measure the solar heating of CO2 already in the 1850s noted: “An atmosphere of that gas would give to our Earth a high temperature“.

It took scientists still a bit, until IPCC AR4, to prove that #climatewarming is unequivocal and leading to increased frequencies and intensities of extreme events.

Why are so many climate records breaking all at once?

From the hottest global average day, to the highest average sea surface temperature and the lowest Antarctic sea ice extent - here’s why so many climate records are breaking, all at once.

#IceSheets can collapse faster than previously thought possible

Ice sheets can retreat up to 600 metres a day during periods of #ClimateWarming, 20 times faster than the highest rate of retreat previously measured, according to a new paper.

[...]

»“Our research provides a warning from the past about the speeds that ice sheets are physically capable of retreating at,” said Newcastle’s Dr Christine Batchelor, who led the study. “Our results show that pulses of rapid retreat can be far quicker than anything we’ve seen so far.”«

This happened in 1985. Another Carl Sagan communication masterpiece.

Disturbing how everything was already known. Not only what was already happening but also what was yet to come.

38 years later, here we are. Unable to address it in a meaningful way.

"The prevailing hypothesis is that #ClimateWarming is causing underlying #permafrost to degrade. That releases sediments rich in iron, and when those sediments hit running water and open air, they oxidize and turn a deep rusty orange color. The oxidation of minerals in the soil may also be making the water more acidic"

"The deadly #HeatWave that struck Western Canada in 2021 would have been virtually impossible without human-induced #ClimateWarming, a new study has found.

Furthermore, researchers predict that if warming continues at even a moderate pace Canadians in the region can expect similar heat waves about every 10 years by 2050."

#ClimateWarming Sometimes you need to turn your preconceptions upside down and give them a good shake. Who’d have guessed that a guy who once lived in a van would become a mover and shaker of our age. All without changing his dress sense.

#GlobalIssues require #GlobalSolutions.

This implies #SystemsThinking in order to cretae a framework to develop things like #OneHealth , #GlobalHealth , fight #ClimateWarming , uphold #HumanRights and a long etc.

In this way, #WorldFederalism doesn't just make sense but its becoming more and more of a necessity to improve governance in the #GlobalVillage.

Hear the #YoungWorldFederalists explain this in more depth:

@odbof85 It’s very worrying. Novembers, here in SE U.K. have been relentlessly wet for the past 5 or 6 years; this year it’s much dryer, and much warmer.
I hope there’ll be rain to swell those rivers before the season’s over, but #ClimateWarming

”The climate crisis has driven the world to the brink of multiple “disastrous” tipping points, according to a major study.
It shows five dangerous tipping points may already have been passed due to the 1.1C of global heating caused by humanity to date.”

Global Annual to Decadal Climate Update - Executive Summary

Predicted #precipitation patterns for the November to March 2022/23-2026/27 average, compared to the 1991-2020 average, suggest increased precipitation in the tropics and reduced precipitation in the subtropics, consistent with the patterns expected from #ClimateWarming.

#ClimateWarming deals yet another blow to the #GreatBarrierReef

Reef managers confirmed Friday that aerial surveys detected #catastrophic #bleaching on 60 percent of the reef’s #corals. The discovery is particularly disturbing, researchers said, because a cooling #LaNiña #weather pattern in the #ocean usually offsets warming that stresses #coral and causes them to lose color.
