A message thread from a friend of XR Cambridge from the heat danger zone in northern Spain, describing his experience of the heat today: "It feels like I’m drowning. Drowning in heat but there is nowhere to swim, no surface to break through, the air the thing that chokes."

...

"It’s 10pm and 34C. It has been a slog. The heat takes everything of you. Then I think about the people in India and Pakistan, suffering months of 40C+. Days of 50C. I want to rage for them. But I have no energy."

Poorer countries say that a promise they would be compensated for the damage done by richer countries' emissions would be honoured this year.
They believed that new money to pay for the impacts of climate change that they can't adapt to would be set up.
But in the discussions in Bonn, they say the issue has been side-lined by the US and Europe.

It is a betrayal and it is ongoing

Pád ruské ekonomiky způsobený sankcemi i nedostatek pšenice a vody ohrožují postsovětskou Střední Asii. Země, které dosud ekonomicky závisely na historických vazbách s Moskvou, se nyní ocitají v nezáviděníhodné situaci. Cesta z ní však ještě není ztracená.

The Collapse of an Atlantic Ocean Current Would Ripple Across The World, Says Study

In our study, we used a comprehensive global model to examine what Earth's climate would look like under such a collapse.

We switched the Atlantic overturning off by applying a massive meltwater anomaly to the North Atlantic, and then compared this to an equivalent run with no meltwater applied.

Our focus was to look beyond the well-known regional impacts around Europe and North America, and to check how Earth's climate would change in remote locations, as far south as Antarctica.

The first thing the model simulations revealed was that without the Atlantic overturning, a massive pile up of heat builds up just south of the Equator.

This excess of tropical Atlantic heat pushes more warm moist air into the upper troposphere (around 10 kilometers into the atmosphere), causing dry air to descend over the east Pacific.

The descending air then strengthens trade winds, which pushes warm water toward the Indonesian seas. And this helps put the tropical Pacific into a La Niña-like state.

Australians may think of La Niña summers as cool and wet. But under the long-term warming trend of climate change, their worst impacts will be flooding rain, especially over the east.

We also show an Atlantic overturning shutdown would be felt as far south as Antarctica. Rising warm air over the West Pacific would trigger wind changes that propagate south to Antarctica. This would deepen the atmospheric low-pressure system over the Amundsen Sea, which sits off west Antarctica.

This low-pressure system is known to influence ice sheet and ice shelf melt, as well as ocean circulation and sea-ice extent as far west as the Ross Sea.

Heh, forbes proti fosilnim palivum :)

Fossil Fuels Are ‘Weapons Of Mass Destruction’ Preventing Economic Development, New Report Finds
https://www.forbes.com/sites/davidrvetter/2022/06/01/fossil-fuels-are-weapons-of-mass-destruction-preventing-economic-development-new-report-finds/

Unchecked production and use of oil, coal and gas is undermining economic development and is incompatible with poverty alleviation worldwide, a new report has found, presenting a strong counter-narrative to fossil fuel industry claims that their operations improve lives and livelihoods.

...
To address the current and potential harms posed by fossil fuels, the report calls for a new set of international, binding commitments to cut fossil fuel production globally. In short, the authors conclude, the 2015 Paris climate agreement isn’t spurring the action needed to reduce the use of hydrocarbons.

“I think we something with teeth that can address where greenhouse gas emissions are coming from, not just vague commitments around emissions reductions at some point in the future,” Daley said. “We need policies and a framework to go to the source of the problem, which is fossil fuel production.”

Daley explained that a well-designed agreement could help to phase out fossil fuels in a way that was fair and equitable, and give “developmental space” to exploited nations to help transition workers to more sustainable roles.

Most of all, he said, any robust agreement would place the burden of responsibility on rich nations to help fund and support the global transition away from fossil fuels.

“There needs to be sticks and carrots,” Daley said. “It’s not going to be easy and it won’t be straightforward, but it needs to be the rich nations that need to stand up and move.”
