This is a pretty alarming new study out today (doi.org/10.1126/scia... - read the abstract) and here are some great visuals and highlights from it by @propublica.org: www.propublica.org/article/wate... "Since 2002, 75% of the population lives in 101 countries that have been losing freshwater water"

V zadnjih 10 letih imamo v povprecju okrog 45% letno rast BEV med vsemi registriranimi osebnimi vozili. Kdaj bomo dosegli 10% delez ? Po trenutnih izgledih ob koncu 2028/zacetku 2029. Podatek bo na voljo v prvih mesecih leta 2029. 1/2

Out today in Nature, our paper on the drivers of the record 2023 summer heating of the North Atlantic. Temperatures warmed to record levels in just a few months. The impacts on climate & ecosystems were severe. A thread on how this work came about and what we found.👇👇🧵 www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Could this be the biggest climate story of the year? For the first time on record, China's emissions are falling due to clean energy growth, not slow power demand Full analysis + outlook by Lauri Myllyvirta: www.carbonbrief.org/... 1/7

Scientists have been publishing climate models since ~1970. A good way to evaluate their skill is to compare what they expected to happen in the years after the model was published to observed climate changes. It turns out most models were pretty spot-on:

Just your regular reminder of where global CO2 emissions are tracking compared to scenarios that keep warming to below 1.5C in 2100, with "no or low overshoot" (maximum temperature around 1.6C). journals.sagepub.com/doi/full/10.... C1/

NEW DATA: 46.9% of EU electricity in 2024 came from renewables says @eu-eurostat.extwitter.link 🏆 Top performers: 🇩🇰 Denmark – 88.4% (mostly wind) 🇵🇹 Portugal – 87.5% (wind + hydro) 🇭🇷 Croatia – 73.7% (mostly hydro) ⬇ Lowest shares: 🇱🇺 Luxembourg – 5.1% 🇲🇹 Malta – 15.1% 🇨🇿 Czechia – 15.9%

Norway Is Uprooting Its Fuel Pumps as Electric Cars Take Over “We are looking to build a bridge from traditional gas & diesel bizz,” Ole J Tonnessen, Uno-X Mobility Norway’s COO, said during a recent visit to Furuset. “We have gone from the traditional, to targeting the future.” #alwaysbecharging

Kanadski gozdovi so v zadnjih letih nenadoma postali izjemen vir emisij CO2, skoraj izkljucno zaradi obseznih pozarov. Te so v letu 2023 predstavljale skoraj 3% svetovnih emisij.

Zaenkrat niti ni jasno, ali obramba proti toci deluje (dokazov ni nikakrsnih), se manj, kako obsezna bi morala biti. Jasno pa je, da temperaturna razlika med jutrom in popoldnevom ne doloca vertikalnih gibanj in ni glavni faktor za nastanek toce. www.rtvslo.si/rtv365/arhiv...

Bistroumen argument predstavnika AMZS: "Znizanje omejitve hitrosti ne bi bistveno vplivalo na doseganje okoljskih ciljev... nenazadnje imajo tovornjaki ze sedaj imajo nizjo omejitev hitrosti, pa so izpusti visji kot pri avtomobilih." www.24ur.com/novice/slove...

Here's something funny: - By distance travelled, pure-electric cars make up ~22% of total in 2023 in Norway - By *amount of energy consumed*, it's like, maybe 5% ish This is bc electricity is ridiculously more efficient than fossil or bio :) robbieandrew.github.io/EV/

Ali vec elektrike iz sonca in vetra pomeni drazjo elektriko? Teza, ki jo vztrajno ponavljajo energetski x-perti z navajanjem Kalifornije kot vzorcnega primera, torej vsaj za ZDA ne drzi. www.sustainabilitybynumbers.com/p/us-states-...

Latest @copernicusecmwf.bsky.social data shows One of the consequences of a warmer world is melting sea ice. 📉 Daily global sea ice extent reached a new all-time minimum 🌡️ February 2025 was 3rd warmest February globally, 1.59°C above the 1850-1900 average 🌍🛰️🌡️⚒️🧪🌊 #ClimateAction

Powerful words from the American Geophysical Union.

While all of this is happening to our scientific agencies, the current extent of sea ice globally remains at record low levels... More visuals at zacklabe.com/global-sea-i...

Good morning with good news: Global share of RE & nuclear generation is forecast to increase from 41% in 2024 to 47% in 2027! How? Solar generation grew 30% in 2024! RE generation is forecast to rise 10%/yr & nuclear 2.3%/yr from 2025-2027. #energysky iea.blob.core.windows.net/assets/e54b8...

I have a new paper in Dialogues on Climate Change exploring climate outcomes under current policies. I find that we are likely headed toward 2.7C by 2100 (with uncertainties from 1.9C to 3.7C), and that high end emissions scenarios have become much less likely. journals.sagepub.com...

What powered the world’s electricity supply in 2023? Fossil fuels still dominate but clean energy is catching up and fast.

New official data from India show the country installed the largest amount ever of new electricity generation capacity in calendar year 2024. ▸24.5 GW of solar was added. 1/5

You know all those headlines you saw last year saying that no-one was buying EVs, or that EV sales had collapsed, welll, it turns out that global electric vehicle sales went up 25% in 2024! See full article at www.reuters.com/business/aut...

I think Bluesky is a great platform and I’m here to stay. However, a bookmark function would make the experience SO much better and much more functional for research/ information gathering, especially for reporters. Pretty please @support.bsky.team @bsky.app ?

Despite the recent El Niño episode being weaker than previous ones, we have seen record global sea surface temperatures in the last two years. Read the analysis in the Global Climate Highlights 2024: bit.ly/40kQpcz
