Was this the heatwave that finally ended climate denial?

The Fourth National Climate Assessment makes it clear that we’re already experiencing the impacts of climate change in the United States. Here are four examples: theguardian.com/commentisfree/…
1. The average length of the heat wave season across 50 cities in the US has roughly tripled since the 1960s. #NCA4 #ClimateScienceFacts nca2018.globalchange.gov/chapter/1/
2. From 1984-2015, the total forest area burned by wildfires in the American West was twice what it would’ve been without climate change, which has dried out forests in the region, making them more vulnerable to catching fire. #NCA4 #ClimateScienceFacts nca2018.globalchange.gov/chapter/25/

"Can we save Earth?" A thread. Fun interview of #Schellnhuber, the leading #climate scientist, with digital-utopia-creating philosopher @richprecht (#AI: service.randomhouse.de/book/Hunters-H…). Worth your time content- and framing-wise, if you zdf.de/gesellschaft/p… 1/n #ExtinctionRebellion
...if you know German (else here a translation of notes I made towards the end to update you on the climate-debates State of the art in German media:
– A key reform of the political system worth debating would be to limit politicians' terms to 8 years, to incentivize them to 2/n
care about our not their future (see #Monbiot 2017: theguardian.com/books/2017/sep…).

– We're experiencing the paradoxon of being unable to go on and unable to get off.
-- Wir erleben eine Unmöglichkeit des Weitermachens und eine Unmöglichkeit des Ausstiegs.

1/ Of course. These Facebook problems are misrepresented to look one-sided on ethics, with obvious answers. They are in fact nuanced and difficult. People WANT Facebook to invade their privacy.
2/ People have a lot of one-sided ethics, such as blaming oil companies for climate change rather than blaming car drivers. Oil companies don't cause climate change, they only provide the oil to YOU, it's YOU who burns it causing climate change.
3/ There was a recent UN IPCC report about the drastic action need to keep warming under 1.5 degrees. All the press stories talk about Republican deniers. In fact, it's YOU who denies it, the average voter is unwilling to tolerate the $4/gallon gasoline tax that would be needed.

Just returned from Bangkok, where nations made little progress towards finalising the Paris agreement on climate change that aims to limit global temperature rises over the next 80 years.

It was my first @UN #climate change rodeo and there were a few things I wasn't aware of
Under Paris, countries agreed to a fairly detailed set of promises to keep global temperature rises under 2C by 2100.

It was the first time all nations - both developed and developing economies - signed up to the same set of climate rules. But they weren't binding
Parties gave themselves in effect 3 years to come up with a text agreed by everyone, ratified, and translated into national law on a state-by-state basis. The idea is the accord isn't legally binding, but the rulebook it provides could be on a national level

1. The arguments in this @newrepublic article by @emorwee that #climate is siloed in the press, that the press should tie every extreme weather/disaster event to #climate simply don't match up to the data. #envcomm #scicomm newrepublic.com/article/150124…
2. Staffers working at @mediamatters + @climateprogress (where @emorwee got her start) have long manufactured this claim + driving a self-serving narrative on the Left that the news media is failing in its coverage of climate change.
3. But this narrative & its embrace by those on the Left reflects a classic hostile media effect. As @lfeldman17 reviews the most partisan on an issue see news coverage as biased to their position even when it may actually be favorable. oxfordhandbooks.com/view/10.1093/o… #scicomm #envcomm
