That is how the dynamics of a monsoon #TippingPoint relates to the enhanced variability of monsoon rainfall and thereby the #PakistanFloods. A brief thread:
This is the last paragraph of the @nytimes article above and the related papers:
Anders Levermann, a physicist at the Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research in Germany, has proposed one explanation. The South Asian monsoon begins each spring when the land warms and...
..draws in moisture-rich air from the Indian Ocean. When this air hits the mountains and cools, its cargo of vapor condenses into rain and, in the process, releases heat. The heat draws even more air toward the land from the sea, which keeps the monsoon going...

"Emmanuel #Macron has warned the French they are facing sacrifices and what he called the 'end of #abundance', at his government’s first cabinet meeting after the summer holidays."

"The president, speaking before ministers at the Élysée, said the country was at a '#TippingPoint' and faced a difficult winter and a new era of #instability caused by #ClimateChange and #Russia’s invasion of #Ukraine."
"'What we are currently living through is a kind of major tipping point or a great upheaval … we are living the end of what could have seemed an era of abundance … the end of the abundance of products of #technologies that seemed always available …

The IPCC Climate Change 2022: Impacts, Adaptation and Vulnerability was released today. I'm going to go through the executive summary and post some "highlights". #IPCC #IPCCReport

- #Dengue risk will increase with longer seasons and a wider geographic distribution in #Asia, #Europe, Central and South America and sub-Saharan #Africa, potentially putting additional billions of people at risk by the end of the century
- A billion people projected to be at risk from coastal-specific climate hazards in the mid-term under all scenarios, including in Small Islands. #ClimateCrisis #ClimateEmergency

A select case of #Evolution and #Leftist Progression in the History of Economic Thought ->
From #Marxism to #Keynesian Economics to #MMT
#Complexity
Negative events will lead to negative outcomes :
#Bolshevik Revolution => #Intenational #Proletarianism & #Leninism
#Great #Depression -> #Keynesian Economics
#Chinese Cultural Revolution -> Gang of Four
#GFC -> Modern Monetary Theory #MMT
That is how to interpret history.
Anticipating #tippingpoint is the most essential thing a gifted leader has to his credit.
All non-linear events should be studied carefully by applying #physics in social sciences, such as #Chaos #Theory and Law of #Thermodynamics.
Yes, and #Murphy's #First Law might also help.

So... how many @OANN fans are considering opening accounts on this new platform? I am incredibly angry at what's become of the truth. It seems you can't trust anyone. #WarRoomPandemic #TippingPoint

Read the thread below from @JMichaelWaller.

Someone from #WarRoomPandemic needs to address this ASAP if they want to keep my viewership.

A brief note on this: this is not yet the big "#Amazon dieback" #TippingPoint (where dieback becomes self-perpetuating across most of the rainforest) as the net CO2 emissions are still largely being driven by degradation and so can still be limited - but it's still not good. 1/7
There are several steadily worse Amazon milestones – CO2 emissions from degraded areas surpassing CO2 absorption by intact areas, intact areas becoming C sources too due to drought, & a rain-driven tipping point beyond which a wide-scale shift to savannah becomes inevitable. 2/7
These milestones are often conflated in discussions of climate change and the Amazon rainforest though, leading to people incorrectly thinking an Amazon CO2 sink-to-source transition is the same as the full-scale Amazon dieback tipping point. Thankfully, it's not. 3/7

Climbing out of the woodwork are all the usual Malthusian birds of ill-omen, seeking to harness today's justifiable pessimism to their #Green bandwagon and so exploit the disorientation of a people too shell-shocked to fully realise the extent of what has been taken from them

"We are at the #tippingpoint," many will intone and so must adapt to their Dystopian visions of a #NewNormal - a permanent State of Fear in which life will henceforth be anything BUT 'normal'.

In truth, the only 'Tipping Point' which gives genuine cause for concern - being a palpable one and not a politically-motivated, computer-modelled phantasm - is that which has cast us into this Kafkaesque Hell of Camp #Corona...

In diesem spannenden Artikel erklärt @Fischblog, dass alle (Öko-, Sozial-, Wirtschafts-)Systeme stabil sind, weil sie einer Schale gleichen, in der eine Kugel nach einer Erschütterung (Waldbrand, Lehman-Pleite) immer wieder in die Mitte rollt. >
bit.ly/2PcOIvj #Rezession
#FridaysForFuture, #ExtinctionRebellion und andere warnen oft davor, dass Ökosysteme zusammenbrechen. Wann passiert das? Das tritt ein, wenn die Kugel über den Rand der Schale hinausschießen, um in einer anderen Schale eine andere (vielleicht schlechtere) neue Mitte zu finden. >
So kann aus einem #Korallenriff nach einem gewissen #Temperaturanstieg trotz Korallenbleiche wieder ein gesundes Riff werden – oder mit zu viel #Korallenbleiche (zu viel Schwung der Kugel) entsteht ein anderes Ökosystem (eine Schale) mit Algen, das stabil ist (eine Mitte hat). >

Anthropogenic #CO2 emissions, combined with #deforestation and increased #human-caused ignitions have created the perfect storm for #megafires in the #Amazon #IPCC2014
Warmer temperatures as a result of increased #anthropogenic #CO2, #detorestation and increased #fire activity can cause #positive #feedbacks that push the #Amazon towards a #tippingpoint resulting in a shift from #rainforest to #savanna forests
A shift from #rainforest to #savanna ecosystems will have global consequences. The rainforest creates its own weather by recycling moisture from the jungle. The trees absorb #CO2 and release #oxygen, literally the air we breathe.

We have reached the #tippingpoint. For the past year+, the visceral comments on @realDonaldTrump's tweets has been almost unbearable. In the past week, something has changed. Less Tavistock/Soros paid NPC bot's comments, & much more push back against those comments. #NinjaNews
Twitter is still doing their part by keeping the NPC comments at the top of the feed, but those comments are definitely less and getting a much different response. I will post some for you, so that you can see what I am saying is true.
This peach makes the common NPC statement in response to @realDonaldTrump's tweet this morning- using words like pathetic, immature, dumb and STFU. She even throws in a big ol FU.
