Breaking: 2026 is on track to be another record-hot year. Extreme weather isn't "future" anymore,it's here. Time to move beyond talk. Push for real policy, not just promises. #ClimateAction #Sustainability

We need an article like this in English and other languages too.

”Man kan lätt få för sig att svenskarna bara bryr sig om brott, straff, utvisningar och billig bensin. Men så är det inte. Nästan hälften tycker att klimatet är viktigare än andra samhällsfrågor.” www.sydsvenskan.se/kultur/tror-...

Re-upping this 2024 @bloomberg.com explainer: Why Older Adults Are Uniquely Vulnerable to Extreme Heat www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

Just finished a keynote for the Mexican Reunion Nacional de Profesores on how to teach for hope in times of polycrisis (on Zoom). I have not been particularly optimistic about the future and have found myself becoming more worried every day since 2022...🧵

Thankfully someone is standing up to the nonsense. www.theguardian.com/environment/...

Excited to see this out - a paper that reflects on a tricky process that we went through at @giubresearch.bsky.social last year. www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

Why do you think respectable researchers publish in MDPI journals? Can you think of any legitimate reason?

1995: Nigeria executed Ken Saro-Wiwa for opposing Shell's destruction of Ogoniland. 2008: The company was alerted to 100+ ruptures since 2008 but ignored them. 2026: Their leaky pipelines are still operating across Nigeria. This is the death project in action. www.bbc.com/news/article...

3,400 people die on a single extremely hot day in India. 30,000 in 5 days. Most of the poor aren't even counted. The study calls that a conservative estimate. Mass death is here. My heart is breaking. www.euronews.com/2026/06/10/h...

This is not OK

AI will be the end of us.

Stop calling it “development” if the soil dies, the rivers dry, and the people leave.

Germany Weather records since 1881 1881-2000, 1 day with 40c One day in 119 years. 2000-2025, 9 days with 40c + 9 days in 25 years. 2026 4 days already 4 days in one week. #ClimateCrisis #Metacrisis

In a sane world there would be International Arrest Warrants naming every Oil, Gas & Coal billionaire for climate crimes against humanity

Ja. Genau richtig. We need a culture change everywhere in (northern) Europe to learn to live with these heatwaves. They will still be horrific but there are basic actions that need to be learned to adapt to the extent possible to the new reality. Excellent thread.

🤬 www.bbc.com/news/article...

Nej sorry SVT men det är inte ok att visa speedgolf spelare och andra aktiviteter i värmen utan att säga hur fel det är att man inte ställer in sånt när det är så varmt.

Perfect article place in Norwegian media. It's almost impressive how these two things are basically just held as completely separate and never explicitly linked, in our media landscape.

Shocking. www.politico.eu/article/euro...

European heatwave is worst ever and impossible without climate crisis, scientists @wwattribution.bsky.social find - Study also finds high humidity means people in hundreds of cities are enduring worst ever heat stress - #climatecrisis "is running rampant" www.theguardian.com/environment/...

Dag 2 av Sveriges radios rapportering om falukorv och jag tänker att de försöker att få lyssnarna att glömma att allt annat i världen är så deprimerande.

Voici les anomalies de température du fameux été 1976 et de sa sécheresse mémorable, comparées à celles de l'été 2025.

It is unbearable. The heat doesn’t cool off significantly at night. Everyone is sleeping badly, the level of irritation on the streets is clear…

We have just witnessed France’s hottest day in recorded history. The severity of this heatwave is truly hard to comprehend. Over 50 millions people will be under red-level extreme heat warnings tomorrow. Sadly, what’s going on there is a foreshadowing of our future. Data: DWD/Météo France

Watching BBC News and they just did 5 minutes with a doctor about how this heatwave is life threatening and the interviewer closed it with "well, it's just an opportunity to have ice cream for breakfast!!". Amazing clip of how the BBC seems just blissfully unaware of what is happening

That academics are weird is nothing new. But why do we also put up with mean, ego-centric, rude and disrespectful behaviour on our faculties? We may talk of our research for making the world a better place, yet look away from injustices in our own corridors. I don’t get it.

While we cook in Europe, it's worth remembering that this isn't just a European story. Across the Arctic and other high-latitude regions, temperature anomalies are reaching extraordinary levels, with some areas forecast to be >10–20°C above historical averages. The climate signal is global.

From apology to action: the renewed push for slavery reparations amid questions over delivery.

Cutting these scholarship programmes is a tragedy that Germany will come to regret in the very near future. www.tagesspiegel.de/wissen/wenig...

This is super fascinating and reflects the increasingly global(ised) world we live in, as well as drawing attention to concepts of identity and nationalism www.bbc.com/news/article...

In the context of today's heatwaves I also think it is worth noting that the concept of 'adaptation options’ is a constructed one – do we really have *options* at this stage, or will political inertia and lack of prioritisation force us onto pathways that we have no or little control over?

It's pretty simple... If you use AI to create art, then you're not an artist. If you use AI to write, then you're not a writer. If you use AI to make music, then you're not a musician. If you use AI to animate, then you're not an animator. If you use AI to make films, then you're not a filmmaker.

We are suffering in the European heatwave now. And we *should* have all the tools and policies in place to not suffer under this heat. People are drowning in France in an effort to cool off. Students are unable to learn in schools. We must not let climate change slip from our political priorities!

"According to the WHO, over 200,000 people have died from heat related causes in Europe over the past 4 years"

Even my Greek rescue cat has barely moved for the last three days - this heat wave is serious. I can work from home, downstairs, but not everyone can be sheltered from this. I hope this can be a reminder to politicians (and the public) that life as usual does not work in a changing climate.

As long as we do better than Norway in the end. 😩

Part 4 of 🧵 on adaptation. This thread with focus on the origins of maladaptation. Unlike some claims, maladaptation was not a 'new' concept for the IPCC. In fact, in my 2004 PhD I cite WGII's 3rd Assessment Report - chapter 20 by Smit et al: www.ipcc.ch/site/assets/...

Les luttes contre le chlordécone et l'agent orange manifesteront ensemble à Paris le 20 juin contre le « colonialisme chimique ». La géographe Larissa Mies Bombardi, qui a forgé ce concept, décrypte cette « asymétrie » entre le Nord et le Sud global. Lire l'article ➡️ https://l.reporterre.net/fWA

[Thread] [1/7] Avec 40-43+°C sur plusieurs jours, nous ne sommes plus sur un simple évènement météorologique, mais un évènement qui aura des conséquences catastrophiques pour la vie animale et végétale. Je pèse mes mots : ce qu'il va se passer en France est sans précédent.

At UNFCCC SB64, which is sort of ticking along without too much fuss this time. The GGA is getting stuck on the same old issues (do we need/want technical experts?). The general mood otherwise is pretty sleepy I would say.

Hamburg central station 7 am on a grey Saturday if you are wondering. I missed my connection due to the delay but there is another train coming soon.
