1/ There’ve been some scary climate charts released this week, alongside some big climate stories. It’s been challenging keeping up with everything, so I’ve done a quick round-up thread 🧵

3/ Sea surface temperatures are currently at record highs for June so far, and also for the months of April and May.

When temperatures soar, it’s important to pay special attention to animals because some don’t have homes or families to take care of them. Check out our life-saving tips. (1/8) #heatwave
NEVER leave your dog inside your car! 🐶☀️

Always put clean drinking water for animals. Putting mud pots with clean water at accessible areas and changing them regularly helps animals and birds stay hydrated.

1/ First off, there was this crazy high inflation that was happening in countries all around the world 💰💸. It was causing all sorts of economic problems and making life hard for a lot of people. #inflation #PCE
2/ Then, the Omicron coronavirus variant started spreading and it was a total nightmare 🤒🤮. People were getting sick left and right and it was just chaos. #COVIDIsAirborne
☀️My first PhD paper is out today! We investigated the extraordinary 2021 PNW heatwave🔥(+ Kai Kornhuber @KKornhuber & Mingfang Ting @mfting), identifying processes that supercharged it and their relations to climate change. @NatureClimate Link: nature.com/articles/s4155…
Here’s a free access link to the pdf: rdcu.be/c0lXW
We found that atmospheric dynamics played a key role in the PNW #heatwave: leading up to it, the jet stream bent into a huge hemisphere-wide wave—forming a heat dome in the PNW that was likely boosted by a smaller atmospheric wave coming off the Pacific.
1/29. 📜NEW BRIEF: Today we launch “PASSED THE POINT OF NO RETURN: A Non-Economic #LossAndDamage (#NELD) Explainer” covering what #NELD is, why and how it happens, where it happens, who is most affected, and importantly, how we can respond.
🔗Get it here: lossanddamagecollaboration.org/publication/pa…

2/29. The brief begins with a foreword by @UNFCCC NELs Expert Group Member @IrfanUllahCDO, who highlights that Non-Economic #LossAndDamage has been largely overlooked in climate negotiations and that urgent action is needed to address #NELD happening now e.g. The #PakistanFloods.
3/29. Then @DLodry of @LossDamageYouth shares the powerful story of his lived experience of Non-Economic #LossAndDamage in #Cameroon called "The Tears Of A Village River And Its Population" which tells how climate-intensified #Drought can lead to a loss of #Culture and #Identity.

1/14. 📜Powerful new report to the #UN General Assembly by the @SRClimateChange Ian Fry makes crystal clear that #LossAndDamage from #ClimateChange is causing a litany of #HumanRights impacts. 🧵
2/14. In its introduction, the report highlights the inequality at the heart of the #ClimateCrisis: "50% of countries are responsible for 86 % of the cumulative global CO2 emissions", #AtmosphericColonization, and why #ClimateReparations are being demanded for #LossAndDamage.
3/14. Chapter three "#LossAndDamage: a litany of #HumanRights impacts" starts by highlighting that from a #HumanRights perspective #LossAndDamage is "closely related to the right to remedy and the principle of #Reparations".
#China has issued an orange alert on Wednesday for #drought as a scorching #heatwave sweeps across much of the country.
Parts of Jiangsu, Anhui, Henan, Hubei, Zhejiang, Fujian, Jiangxi, Hunan, Guizhou, Chongqing, Sichuan, Shaanxi, Gansu and Tibet suffered from moderate to severe droughts, according to the National Meteorological Center.
In the next three days, precipitation in parts of the Yellow River, Huaihe, Jiangsu, Anhui and Sichuan basins will ease the drought, high temperature and dry weather will continue in other regions.

#Mediterranean marine #heatwaves in 2022... Are we finally at the end of these concatenated heat episodes?
However, remember 2003... a brief comparison shows that 2003 was worse in more than one sense🧵
@ICMCSIC
However, remember 2003... a brief comparison shows that 2003 was worse in more than one sense🧵
@ICMCSIC
The day-by-day comparison of the evolution for both years shows that MHW in 2003 covered a wider area with a higher mean intensity... At least in the western #Mediterranean
- 4ºC (June 2003) is a HUGE amount of heat stored at the sea.
- The MHW started about 15 days earlier.
- 4ºC (June 2003) is a HUGE amount of heat stored at the sea.
- The MHW started about 15 days earlier.
However, due to the #ClimateCrisis the #Mediterranean is about 0.7ºC hotter now than in 2003 (yes!). This is a mean value! In some eastern places, the sea surface #temperature is more than 1ºC larger now. But the maximum category attained was in general larger in 2003

You might not believe me, but it's true.
You might not believe me, but it's true.
