Next EU climate target to allow carbon offsets from 2036, draft shows – POLITICO
https://www.politico.eu/article/eu-comission-climate-target-2036-plan/

The European Commission will permit countries to outsource a portion of their climate efforts to poorer countries from 2036, according to a draft proposal obtained by POLITICO.

The EU executive plans to present the bloc’s 2040 emissions-reduction target on Wednesday after several months of delay. The goal will be set at 90 percent below 1990 levels, the draft amendment to the European Climate Law shows.

But as POLITICO reported in mid-June, the Commission intends to meet up to 3 percentage points of the new target with international carbon credits, despite fierce criticism from its own scientific advisers. This plan aligns with Germany’s position on the 2040 goal.

Some species of fig trees store calcium carbonate in their trunks – essentially turning themselves (partially) into stone, new research has found. The team of Kenyan, U.S., Austrian, and Swiss scientists found that the trees could draw carbon dioxide (CO2) from the atmosphere and store it as calcium carbonate ‘rocks’ in the surrounding soil.

The research is being presented this week at the Goldschmidt conference in Prague.

The trees – native to Kenya – are one of the first fruit trees shown to have this ability, known as the oxalate carbonate pathway.

MTG Wants to Make ‘Deadly’ Weather Manipulation a Felony
https://www.yahoo.com/news/mtg-wants-deadly-weather-manipulation-151205076.html

Greene announced in a Saturday tweet that she intends to wage war on the “deadly” practice of “climate modification” and “geoengineering” with a bill that would make any such efforts a felony offense.

According to Greene, she’s been “researching weather modification” and now she is ready to take action after spending months “writing this bill” with her legislative counsel.

She added, “It will be similar to Florida’s Senate Bill 56. We must end the dangerous and deadly practice of weather modification and geoengineering.”
...
In a since-deleted 2018 Facebook post, multiple news outlets reported that Greene suggested that “lasers or blue beams of light” from “space solar generators” in the sky, controlled by Jewish people, may have caused a spate of wildfires—including the 150,000-acre Camp Fire in California that killed 85 people. She has denied she made such a claim in a later interview.
...
On the heels of the devastating 2024 Hurricane Helene, Greene, seemingly provoked, took to X with a message.

“Yes they can control the weather,” she wrote, “it’s ridiculous for anyone to lie and say it can’t be done.”

Evropske dilema

Maďarsko se díky Číně stává bateriovou velmocí | iROZHLAS - spolehlivé zprávy
https://www.irozhlas.cz/zpravy-svet/madarsko-se-diky-cine-ma-stat-bateriovou-velmoci-nema-k-tomu-ale-podminky-a_2507060700_jva

Dalším problémem je nedostatek vody, která je k výrobě baterií potřebná. U města Debrecín, kde se podle BBC kvůli klimatické změně snižuje počet deštivých dní a mizí i podpovrchová voda, bude v budoucnu stát již zmiňovaná čínská továrna CATL. I v tomto městě, které je tradiční baštou strany Fidesz, se proto vyrazilo na protest do ulic.

„Problém není vyloženě to, čemu budou čelit firmy, ale čemu budou čelit místní. Je možné, že voda postačí pro továrny, ale už jí nebude dostatek pro místní,“ líčí jednu z obav Szunomár.

Do procesu by mohla vstoupit i Evropská unie, Szunomár si ale není jistá, jakou formou by k tomu mohlo dojít. Podle ní se v maďarském případě tříští dva principy, kterých se EU drží. Prvním je snaha o derisking, snížení rizika, a tím pádem i upuštění od čínských investic spojených s bateriovým průmyslem. Druhým je Green Deal, který se snaží snížit emise skleníkových plynů, a proto podporuje elektromobilitu.

„Pro elektrická auta potřebujete baterie a evropské baterie zatím nejsou natolik silné a inovativní. Několik let potrvá, než evropské firmy vyrobí něco podobného k už dostupným jihokorejským a čínským bateriím,“ líčí maďarská ekonomka. „Znamená to, že potřebují čínské baterie nyní.”

For every degree of global warming, the temperature on the hottest days in the Netherlands increases by 3.3°C.

XCHAOS: tak oni regulérně berou klimatickou změnu jako pozitivní pro Rusko. Mají pocit že díky tomu jak se se zvyšující teplotou víc Ruska zobyvatelní tak budou větší velmoc.

XCHAOS: je to trade off .. cim dal jsi od Ruska, tim mensi hrozba Rusko je, cim blize Rusku jsi, tim mensi hrozba je globalni zmena klimatu? :D

SHEFIK: tak Pitěr je jedno z těch měst, co v případě výrazného vzestupu hladiny moří prostě přestane existovat.... možná proto Moskva tak škodolibě sází na to, že pro Rusko je oteplování vlastně dobře...

Aspon, ze to nadeli vsem stejne. Mysleno Rusku, ne tem starenam

Major reversal in ocean circulation detected in the Southern Ocean, with key climate implications | Institut de Ciències del Mar
https://www.icm.csic.es/en/news/major-reversal-ocean-circulation-detected-southern-ocean-key-climate-implications?

“We are witnessing a true reversal of ocean circulation in the Southern Hemisphere—something we’ve never seen before,” explains Antonio Turiel, ICM-CSIC researcher and co-author of the study. “While the world is debating the potential collapse of the AMOC in the North Atlantic, we’re seeing that the SMOC is not just weakening, but has reversed. This could have unprecedented global climate impacts.”

According to the research team, the consequences of this reversal are already becoming visible. The upwelling of deep, warm, CO₂-rich waters is believed to be driving the accelerated melting of sea ice in the Southern Ocean. In the long term, this process could double current atmospheric CO₂ concentrations by releasing carbon that has been stored in the deep ocean for centuries—potentially with catastrophic consequences for the global climate.

“The new processor has allowed us to obtain surface salinity data of unprecedented quality in this region,” explains Verónica González. “Thanks to this improvement, we can now provide a coherent explanation for the rapid Antarctic sea ice loss that had puzzled the scientific community.”
