Intentionally killing innocent people is always wrong. Wherever in the world it happens. You might think everyone agrees with this simple moral principle, and yet far too many people, on far too many different sections of the political spectrum, try and make exceptions to it.

Lol, Zillow tried to rate the climate risks facing individual properties. The real estate industry *hated* it, precisely because it worked -- it made selling risky properties more difficult. So they rebelled & Zillow caved. Don't look up!

According to the latest findings by
@bsc-cns.bsky.social
, extreme weather, driven by climate change, is sending food prices surging across the globe. For countries reliant on imports, these climate-fuelled disruptions carry real risks - especially vulnerable households struggling with living costs.

Global average temperature is expected to rise to almost 2C above preindustrial in the next five years, according to the WMO, with falls in crop yields and more than a third of the worldâs population being exposed to extreme heat. People, I'm sorry but we have to deal with this. Later is too late.
