    All species have an environmental niche, and despite technological advances, humans are unlikely to be an exception. Here, we demonstrate that for millennia, human populations have resided in the same narrow part of the climatic envelope available on the globe, characterized by a major mode around ∼11 °C to 15 °C mean annual temperature (MAT). Supporting the fundamental nature of this temperature niche, current production of crops and livestock is largely limited to the same conditions, and the same optimum has been found for agricultural and nonagricultural economic output of countries through analyses of year-to-year variation. We show that in a business-as-usual climate change scenario, the geographical position of this temperature niche is projected to shift more over the coming 50 y than it has moved since 6000 BP. Populations will not simply track the shifting climate, as adaptation in situ may address some of the challenges, and many other factors affect decisions to migrate. Nevertheless, in the absence of migration, one third of the global population is projected to experience a MAT >29 °C currently found in only 0.8% of the Earth’s land surface, mostly concentrated in the Sahara. As the potentially most affected regions are among the poorest in the world, where adaptive capacity is low, enhancing human development in those areas should be a priority alongside climate mitigation.

    Ha, tudle knizku od Erica Conwaye, spoluautora skvele "Merchants of Doubt" o dezinformacnich kampanich (nejen) kolem klimatickych zmen, jsem nejak nezaregistroval...

    This book offers an informed and revealing account of NASA's involvement in the scientific understanding of the Earth's atmosphere.
    Since the nineteenth century, scientists have attempted to understand the complex processes of the Earth's atmosphere and the weather created within it. This effort has evolved with the development of new technologies -- from the first instrument-equipped weather balloons to multibillion-dollar meteorological satellite and planetary science programs.
    Erik M. Conway chronicles the history of atmospheric science at NASA, tracing the story from its beginnings in 1958, the International Geophysical Year, through to the present, focusing on NASA's programs and research in meteorology, stratospheric ozone depletion, and planetary climates and global warming. But the story is not only a scientific one. NASA's researchers operated within an often politically contentious environment. Although environmental issues garnered strong public and political support in the 1970s, the following decades saw increased opposition to environmentalism as a threat to free market capitalism.
    Atmospheric Science at NASA critically examines this politically controversial science, dissecting the often convoluted roles, motives, and relationships of the various institutional actors involved -- among them NASA, congressional appropriation committees, government weather and climate bureaus, and the military.

    mozno by stalo za hriech rozdrobit to nejakymi pasmi vegetacie, kvoli odfukovaniu svrchnej vrstvy pody, tuto u nas ked vidim tie nekonecne lany poli tak pri tych vetroch ake tu su tak toho musi odfukat celkom hodne, sice tu davaju aspon na zimu vetrolamy, ale teraz boli take fukoty, ze aj tie vetrolamy im poodfukovalo a polamalo

    Pro mě velmi lokální news :) Ačkoli počítám, že zásady ekologického zem. jsou v rozporu s regenerativním využitím půdy, stejně mám docela radost.

    Praha loni rozhodla o rozdělení svých polí na maximálně pět hektarů velká, zakázala anorganická hnojiva a nájemci musí hospodařit podle zásad ekologického hospodářství. Důvodem je boj se suchem a erozí půdy. Z asi 14.000 hektarů zemědělské půdy v hlavním městě vlastní Praha 1650 hektarů.

    ...


    Zemědělci, kteří začnou půdu obhospodařovat, budou muset změnit osevní postupy, tedy sled pěstovaných plodin. Nebude tak možné dva roky po sobě vysadit stejnou plodinu. Do osevního postupu bude zařazena také tzv. zlepšující plodina. Zakázáno bude použití pesticidů a upřednostněna organická hnojiva. Změny neznamenají, že si jeden zemědělec může pronajmout pouze pětihektarové pole, ale nesmí je scelit.

    On April 30th, Mayor Sylvester Turner announced that the City of Houston is going to commit to purchasing renewable energy in a plan that aims to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and power municipal operations with 100% renewable energy by 2025. The agreement is through a renewed partnership with NRG Energy, which over the next seven years will provide Houston with 1,034,399 MWh of renewable energy annually from a third-party solar facility in Texas.
    Houston will start purchasing 100% renewable energy on July 1, 2020. Mauricio Gutierrez, the President and CEO of NPG Energy, said “We are proud to support the City of Houston with renewable power. Our sustainable and more resilient future depends on collaborative action and partnerships like this, and the city is making a meaningful impact.”

    In the aftermath of the global coronavirus pandemic, governments are likely to mobilise significant spending to reinvigorate their economies.
    Our new research, based on surveys of more than 200 of the world’s most senior economists and economic officials, suggests that spending this money on climate-friendly “green” policy initiatives could not only help shift the world closer to a net-zero emissions pathway, but could also offer the best economic returns for government spending.
    The economic and human costs of the pandemic have been tragically high. It has also had huge short-term climate impacts, with the IEA predicting an 8% drop in CO2 emissions this year. If this were repeated every year this decade it would be roughly in line with a pathway to 1.5C.

    Analysis shared by the Institute for Energy Economics and Financial Analysis (IEFA), based on data from the U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA), said the finding marks a major "milestone" in an energy transition that is now underway.
    The move away from coal for electricity generation in the U.S. accelerated in 2020 due to lower gas prices, warmer weather and a "significant amount" of new renewable capacity being connected to the grid late last year, the report suggested.
    It acknowledged that lower power demands resulting from economic slowdown sparked by the COVID-19 pandemic has also played a role in coal's decline.

    Dalsi recenze na Planet of Humans

    There is some truth to this film, hidden behind a multitude of glaring falsehoods. It is important to explore what the film gets right. As climate activists in the era of climate disruption, we must be clear about what our carbon reduction polices are actually going to achieve, as we push local communities around the world to implement Green New Deal programs, Paris Agreement targets, climate mobilizations, and renewable energy initiatives. Let us not get caught up, after all, in lies created not by environmentalists, but by utilities and governments that have propagated them. They are not our lies, and therefore we need not keep them, but renounce them when clearer, bolder, more concerted actions are required to meet the United Nations ten year horizon for “worldwide energy transformation to avert irreversible ecological damage to the planet.”

    Rich nations must make pandemic recovery plans green: global investors - Reuters
    https://www.reuters.com/...ns-must-make-pandemic-recovery-plans-green-global-investors-idUSKBN22G08Y

    The groups said private capital would play a key role in the recovery, but investors needed long-term policies to be put in place that reflected the agreed move to a low-carbon economy.

    “Recovery plans that exacerbate climate change would expose investors and national economies to escalating financial, health and social risks in the coming years,” they said in a statement said on Monday.

    “Governments should avoid the prioritisation of risky, short-term emissions-intensive projects,” added the groups, which include the Institutional Investor Group on Climate Change, members of which include BlackRock (BLK.N).


    Also signing the statement, under the collective group known as the Investor Agenda, were the United Nations-backed Principles for Responsible Investment, Ceres, CDP, Investor Group on Climate Change, Asia Investor Group on Climate Change and the UNEP Finance Initiative.

    The statement follows similar calls for a green recovery in recent days from International Monetary Fund Managing Director Kristalina Georgieva and German Chancellor Angela Merkel, among others

    Recovery money would be best spent on creating jobs and sustainable infrastructure that helped meet the goal of net zero carbon emissions across sectors including energy, industrials, building and transport, they said
