TADEAS: sums it up
"Dovolenou na jihozápadním pobřeží Francie jsme si, rodina se dvěma dětmi, načasovali vážně špatně."

‘what the hell just happened’. Be under no illusion the type of incident splashed all over national news from London happened the length and breadth of England today, it just hasn’t got the media coverage yet. Today was a game changer. 999 calls were stacked and bouncing around the various Fire Controls around the country. Fire crews were going from one incident to the next, to the next…it has been brutal. I’ve never known so many major incidents declared at a whole FRS level at once. I lost count at one point.

This is not a post about the effects of austerity on the FRS, or how hot it was in 1976, or the fact that it was just a ‘hot day’ - it’s about a peek into the future. It’s about demand for fire engines and firefighters far, far outstripping the numbers that any reasonable person would expect to be available at any one time. It’s about a completely and fundamentally different operating environment where fires burn with such ferocity, and spread with such speed in suburban areas that you CAN’T STOP THEM. We’ve seen the kind of conditions faced by international colleagues just miles from our capital city and in towns, villages and cities the length and breadth of the country. You can’t ask your neighbouring FRS for mutual aid when they’re just a busy as you are, and so are their neighbours, and their neighbours etc.. ..

Today was about climate change, the hottest UK day on record - EVER! If you don’t believe in climate change ask a firefighter who has been on duty in the last two days what they think about it.

Hitze in Deutschland: Rhein-Pegel sinkt erneut – Frachtschiffe fahren mit weniger Ladung - DER SPIEGEL

The level of the Rhine continues to fall – cargo ships sail with significantly less cargo

"Shipping continues, but with a partially greatly reduced load," said a spokesman for the Water Shipping Office WSA. This applies in particular to the critical Kaub bottleneck near Koblenz , where the water level is extremely low. The ships can still sail at the moment, but it depends on the type of ship, whether with 50 or only 30 percent of the load.

BREAKING: We won our case against the UK gov's inadequate net zero strategy!

On the hottest day on record in the UK, the High Court has ruled that the government’s Net Zero Strategy breaches the Climate Change Act.

This is a landmark victory.

Hallam: George Monbiot's bravest article this year.
Until the grip of reformists on the "environmental" space is broken, the movements will simply make the murder of our children a little less uncomfortable.

The record-shattering heatwave has given the UK a new national record high of 40.3 °C (104.5 °F).

TUHO: nehodlam se tu s tebou tocit na grafech (vadi mi osekavani grafu z obou taboru) a urcovani svetovy prumerny teploty z ruznych proxies je taky pekna vec na delsi debatu

na konec snad jen:
"How fast can our planet’s climate change? Too slowly for humans to notice, according to the firm belief of most scientists through much of the 20th century. Any shift of weather patterns, even the Dust Bowl droughts that devastated the Great Plains in the 1930s, was seen as a temporary local excursion. To be sure, the entire world climate could change radically: The ice ages proved that. But common sense held that such transformations could only creep in over tens of thousands of years.
In the 1950s, a few scientists found evidence that some of the great climate shifts in the past had taken only a few thousand years. During the 1960s and 1970s, other lines of research made it plausible that the global climate could shift radically within a few hundred years. In the 1980s and 1990s, further studies reduced the scale to the span of a single century. Today, there is evidence that severe change can take less than a decade. A committee of the National Academy of Sciences (NAS) has called this reorientation in the thinking of scientists a veritable “paradigm shift.” The new paradigm of abrupt global climate change, the committee reported in 2002, “has been well established by research over the last decade, but this new thinking is little known and scarcely appreciated in the wider community of natural and social scientists and policymakers.”"

PER2: nevim presne jak je to s abrupt climate change v poslednich 300tisicich letech, reagoval jsem specificky na tenhle graf. protoze tu argumentaci jsem slysel casto od pokornyho a barty a kdyz jsem se na to koukal podrobne tak systematicky zamenujou lokalni a globalni teplotyz cehoz pak felaj znacne neadekvatni zavery (jo a casto taky orezavaj grafy zprava aby nebylo videt to soucasny otepleni, jako to dela tvuj graf)

SEJDA: pardon, ja myslel ze jsem v auditku VV, kde by se ten muj blby vtip asi setkal s vetsim pochopenim.
