World SSTs 06.07.2026 7-day change map as usual Fascinating stuff : The North Pacific is warming over a wide area The warm patch in the Northern #Atlantic is cooling but the cold patch is also weakening MDR ? cooling further Crazy stuff #ClimateCrisis

When data centres plug into the grid, power generation has to increase. That often comes from coal and gas - and so, Google's reported grid emissions are accelerating too The pollution pumped out here causes stuff like heatwaves that kill thousands of people. This is unsafe and v v v dangerous

NEW BLOG FOR YOU Google's energy consumption numbers in their new climate report are mind-blowing. 2 years ago they flipped from linear to exponential growth, and their climate impact is blowing out, too. A WILD testament to the obscene bloat and waste of GenAI: ketanjoshi.co/2026/07/01/g...

It's not about whether you actually damaged the pool or whether the boat was transporting drugs. It's about sending a message: We can do anything to anyone anywhere.

The Climate Crisis is coming for you.

TY @pcgamer.com for covering this!

Google basically say: it's all worth it. But is it? Google now has to burn 1.5x as much energy to make the same $1m in revenue. Compared to 2021, are you getting 2x the value out of Google's services, to justify 2x the climate disasters they'll cause? Is this a good trade-off, to you?

I think that of all the loathsome things that Harper did to us, contrary to public opinion, opening up our media to foreign ownership might be the most loathsome. It caused so many of our problems and inflamed the ones we had. www.newswire.ca/news-release...

“The third stage of the Tour de France to Les Angles will go ahead, despite the threat posed by wildfires ­raging in the eastern Pyrenees, but without spectators” Yet Carney is using OUR tax dollars to build a pipeline. #ClimateDenial is devastating www.theguardian.com/sport/2026/j...

We’ve heard this same exact speech. I can’t believe that we’re replaying the same gameplan we’ve seen over and over when the planet is literally on fire. Stop placating Alberta. They will just move the goal posts, they always do. Start doing what you promised the rest of Canada.

The constant stream of Ford/Carney propaganda on TSN during the World Cup is starting to get a bit much. I hadn't seen the climate strategy ad before today, and it's just so cynical and deceitful considering the pipeline announcement and the admission that our emissions are going to increase.

Taxpayers will pay for a new West Coast pipeline, even though the previous one is a money-loser. Liberal Minister claims this is a good investment, based on hiding the debt belonging to Trans Mountain with shady accounting tricks #cdnpoli www.cbc.ca/news/politic...

And it's *particularly* not a bucket we want to end up in as a result of market-distorting subsidies for an industry already dependent on political interference to block competition from renewables even here in AB. The new world is coming. We just get to decide if we're going to be part of it.

The National Post is owned by a US hedge fund controlled by Anthony Melchiorre, a US MAGA billionaire, as are all other Postmedia papers. They are all propaganda operations spewing Canada-hate.

"Norway is imposing a near ban on the use of generative AI tools by elementary school pupils while also restricting their ​use in the education of older children to prevent a ‌negative impact on learning" Sometimes, good policymaking is incredibly simple. www.reuters.com/technology/n...

The trouble with ignoring atrocities our leaders commit ”over there” is that they inevitably arrive back “over here.” Israel’s genocide has been a test run to see what they can get away with and it turns out they can get away with a LOT 😡

This blew my mind. Some of the largest data centers can require up to 5 million gallons of water per day, equivalent to the water use of 50,000 people. Why are we selling out the survival of our planet to enrich a handful of Big Tech CEOs?

I just told the Prime Minister I oppose Alberta’s proposed bitumen pipeline to B.C.’s north coast. It puts ecosystems and coastal First Nations at risk and locks Canada into a fossil fuel future. Let’s invest in renewables, protect nature and uphold Indigenous rights. share.nwmd.social/s/lN3eEKkD

Statistics like this are genuinely shocking, but so too has been the intensity and duration of this extraordinary heatwave in Europe. As a society, we have greatly underestimated--and therefore underpriced--the cost of highly extreme heat events in a rapidly warming world.

This paediatrician is being tortured to death. A paediatrician. Tortured to death.

The problem, though, is that there is no “good deal” possible with the United States. At all. Because a good deal would deliver certainty, and certainty is the one thing that isn’t on offer, or would come at the expense of the continued erosion of Canadian autonomy.

Yesterday's pipeline announcement is yet another reminder that Prime Minister Carney cares more about lining the pockets of his corporate friends than upholding the Constitutional rights of Indigenous peoples and protecting the public from the escalating climate emergency. (1/6)

Alarm bells should be ringing in Ottawa!!! www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

During the climate emergency we need leaders who LEAD, not who follow uninformed public opinion. EDUCATE people on the urgency of climate, then ACT! WE ARE OUT OF TIME @mark-carney.bsky.social You don't inspire confidence consulting only with corporate lobbyists and not with climate experts!

This is why no one trusts politicians - no leadership. Just focus-grouped pandering to oligarchs, and insiders explaining they'll do the right thing Real Soon Now™ - but first, they have no choice but to do the exact opposite and bribe their cronies with a bunch of our money to cement their power. 🙄

"The explosive cocktail. The third heatwave is coming. And this time, (historic) drought and fires are combining with the heat. The heatwave is going to hit Western Europe even though we're only at the beginning of summer. And the news isn't good." It's urgent @mark-carney.bsky.social A thread:
