How Trump got his FIFA prize: Trump’s aides demanded that FIFA’s made-up “peace prize” awarded to him be literally as big as the World Cup. The White House gave FIFA a list of demands regarding the inaugural FIFA Peace Prize, which was invented by FIFA president Gianni Infantino to present to Trump.

2025 is on course to be joint-second warmest year. The #C3S Climate Bulletin reports that November was 1.54°C above pre-industrial levels, making it the third-warmest November on record. The 2023–2025 average is likely to be the first three-year average exceeding 1.5°C. Find more info ⬇️

Nõusolekuseadus läbis Riigikogus esimese lugemise ❤️ Debati tase on olematu, aga “võitja” on Kalle Grünthal, kes räägib lõviks olemisest ja partneri puremisest. Me kõik tunneme end seda kuulates nagu Reili.

Mõned EKRE ja taolise maailmavaatega seonduvad sõnaseletused: Kert Kingo vanglas - King Kong Sooihar - rabalemb (vt ka omasooihar - oma isikliku rabalemb; nt Vargamäe Andres)

Oligi juba möödas paar nädalat, kui seltsimehed Samost ja Uuspõllu ei maininud soode-ja märgalade taastamist. Loomulikult on see kõik ebateaduslik, metsade uputamine ja ideoloogiline, sel korral siis Kikeperas. Oijahh 🤦🏼‍♂️🤦🏼‍♂️

Kui Varro Isamaa Tallinna linnapea valikut kiidab, siis peab midagi küll väga viltu olema. Kus see mandaadijutt nüüd on?

The ocean has a strong influence on precipitation in Southwest Asia. The historical patterns of warm and cold that suppress rain in Tehran are shown on the left. The current pattern is shown on the right, aligning closely for maximum forcing of drought. 2/3

Tehran is having an historic drought due to a combination of factors, including climate change. The ocean is not helping. 1/3

Ilusat meestepäeva meile kõigile. Vähemalt üks päev maailmas, kus meestele pööratakse tähelepanu; kus meil on ka oma roll. Kus me saame ka olla meie ise. Kus meie vajadustega arvestatakse. Aga tegelikult on ikka tore, kui märgatakse vahel, lihtsalt inimesena. Kas see just meestepäev peab olema…

soovitusi samosti ja aaspõllu saateteemadeks: - kas fotosüntees on äärmusvasakpoolne? - miks muld ei usalda turumajandust? - kas konnad peaksid maksma maamaksu? - kas erosioon on ideoloogiliselt kallutatud? - kilpsamblikud kui varjatud marksism - miks on nii, et vihma sajab, aga majandus ei kasva?

"Kui inimene üritab teadmatust välja tuua ja parandada, langeb ta kohe viha alla, kuna üritas ajakirjandusvabadust rikkuda. Kuigi samal ajal ei olnud saatejuhtidel üldse probleemi akadeemilist vabadust rünnata. Kumb on tähtsam või vähem tähtis või kumba tegelikult rünnati? Mõlemad on olulised."

New documentary After the Tide follows three people who have lost, or risk losing, their homes at Happisburgh on the #Norfolk coast. It was made w/ contributions from Sophie Day at @uniofeastanglia.bsky.social + Tyndall Centre, and streams on Disney+ next year.

Et konservatiivide üle ilma on otsustanud, et kliimamuutust pole olemas, siis see ei saa näha palju tähelepanu, aga oleme viimased aastad edukalt halvimal trajektooril püsinud.

New study in Nature by Lin et al shows how the sea-level rise from the melting Ice Age ice (a total of 120 meters rise) ended thousands of years ago. Until our fossil fuel use started a new phase of rising seas. Graph shows the global mean rate of sea level rise. 🌊 www.nature.com/articles/s41...

As climate change super-sizes our storms, should our categories reflect that? Thoughtful comments and discussion (all too rare today) from @weatherprof.bsky.social, @michaelemann.bsky.social, myself and others. Check it out and LMK - what do YOU think?

While I believe that Bill Gates deserves high praise for his sustained commitment to protecting public health, I agree with @michaelemann.bsky.social that he is failing to understand that we must—and can—rapidly quit fossil fuels while addressing illness and poverty. @docsforclimate.bsky.social

The new Gates climate memo isn't a pivot; it's a continuation of "a consistent pattern of downplaying clean energy while promoting dubious and potentially dangerous technofixes in which he is often personally invested," @michaelemann.bsky.social argues in @thebulletin.org:

Lomberg and Pielke support Gates' opinion that we should abandon efforts to address climate change which is a clear sign that Gates has a horrible take on global warming.
