‘Something weird is going on’: search for answers as Antarctic sea ice stays at historic lows

https://www.theguardian.com/world/2023/jul/29/something-weird-is-going-on-search-for-answers-as-antarctic-sea-ice-stays-at-historic-lows

Some scientists fear the ‘shocking’ shift is the beginning of a global heating-linked collapse of the ice that could have alarming knock-on effects

Gulf Stream could collapse as early as 2025, study suggests

https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2023/jul/25/gulf-stream-could-collapse-as-early-as-2025-study-suggests

The Gulf Stream system could collapse as soon as 2025, a new study suggests. The shutting down of the vital ocean currents, called the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (Amoc) by scientists, would bring catastrophic climate impacts.

Cereal crops decimated by Europe's heatwave

https://www.thegrocer.co.uk/sourcing/cereal-crops-decimated-by-europes-heatwave/681361.article

The 2023 European cereal harvest is set to be its lowest since 2007 – at 256 million tonnes, some 9.5% lower than the five-year average of 283 million tonnes, European farming organization Copa Cogeca said this week.

Harvests in Portugal, Spain and Italy, where temperatures have regularly topped 40°C in July, are expected to be hardest hit by the heatwave.

Offshore oil plans in Brazil threaten South America’s largest coral reef

https://news.mongabay.com/2023/07/offshore-oil-plans-in-brazil-threaten-south-americas-largest-coral-reef/

The Parcel de Manuel Luís coral reef, off the coast of northeastern Brazil, is vital for the survival of 53 species at risk of extinction. Despite vetoes from Brazil’s environmental regulator, the local government seeks to give the go-ahead to oil drilling projects in the Pará-Maranhão basin.

Big Oil is Failing the Planet by Walking Back on Climate Pledges

https://cleanenergyrevolution.co/2023/07/16/big-oil-is-failing-the-planet-by-walking-back-on-climate-pledges/

“The fossil fuel industry has massively profited from selling a dangerous product and now innocent people and governments across the globe are paying the price for their recklessness,” Naomi Oreskes, a history of science professor at Harvard University who studies the oil industry, said.

Why China and many others are opposed to the release of nuclear contaminated water in Fukushima

https://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2023/07/16/national/china-japan-fukushima-water-release-explainer/

Japan's plan is facing a strong backlash from China, South Korea and other locations in the Pacific. But where are the concerns coming from?

“If some people think that the nuclear-contaminated water from Fukushima is safe to drink or swim in, we suggest that Japan save the nuclear-contaminated water for these people to drink or swim in, instead of releasing it into the sea and causing widespread concerns internationally,” Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Wang Wenbin said.

“As an environmental biologist, I strongly adhere to what’s called the precautionary principle,” Robert Richmond, director of the Kewalo Marine Laboratory at the University of Hawaii, said when asked about China’s ban on importing Japanese seafood. “In the absence of data showing something is safe, you don't assume that it's safe. You rather put in those protective measures to be very conservative.”
