I'm not suggesting this is an open secret within the climate science community, but it's remarkable how little impact this sort of research is generating. Because if the rate of warming really has *doubled* then you can kiss goodbye to 2°C. www.carbonbrief.org/pace-of-glob...

Archives matter - but not to the Carney government. Canada has only ONE federal funding program for community archives, and they just killed it. Gone. @wgreaves.bsky.social www.canada.ca/en/library-a...

A Minnesota woman observing ICE agents in her car was cornered on one-way streets. An agent approached, called her by name—citing facial recognition. Days later, her Global Entry and TSA privileges were revoked, with no explanation.

Gas projects in the US pipeline explicitly linked to data centers increased by almost 25 times over the past two years, according to new research from Global Energy Monitor. www.wired.com/story/data-c...

"Last month, a report from Clean Energy Canada found a province-wide switch to heat pumps for space heating would cut B.C.’s collective electricity bill by $675 million a year." #bcpoli

Meanwhile @theguardian.com reports today that emissions from coal have fallen in India and China for first time in 50 yrs...

New: We estimate that in 2025, US greenhouse gas emissions increased by 2.4%, marking a change from the prior two years of decreases in emissions. Emissions also grew faster than the economy in 2025, reversing the decoupling of emissions and economic activity of the prior two years.

#BREAKING: New drone video from Pacific, WA, on Tuesday morning following a levee failure on the White River at Pacific City Park. Whole neighborhoods are underwater as water continues flowing out of the failed levee. #wawx #flood #drone

Just about every type of warning on the NWS map this afternoon...including Blizzard Warnings, High Wind Warnings, Wind Advisories, coastal hazards, and lingering Flood Warnings. I will be LIVE at 4 PM talking about this storm. Stay tuned! #wawx

These subtropical air masses that reach the PNW keep getting warmer and wetter as the climate warms as a whole. Yakima, WA has reached 70 degrees today, the only other 70+ in Dec was 72 on 12/1/2021. The atmospheric water vapor content is near record highs for Dec, increasing rainfall amounts.

Widespread significant river flooding has already developed across western Washington as a series of extremely warm & moist #AtmosphericRivers move slowly across the region. This flooding will further worsen tomorrow as strongest part of AR moves ashore. #WAwx [1/3]

Crazy stuff! #wawx

Great culture can save lives. Literally. Amazing letter in today’s @thetimes.com about Tom Stoppard

Next time you're at school pick up, look at the grade ones and then think about how any of them would cope with being separated from their caregiver and imprisoned.

China recognizes that energy storage is completely transformational for the electricity grid & thus for society as a whole. And so it is investing!

People used to say, with great confidence, that variable renewables could never safely provide more than 5% of grid power. That estimate has crept up ever since, though the "great confidence" part never wavers. Anyway, about China ...

November 2025 was the third warmest November on record in ERA5 at 1.54C above preindustrial levels – below only the records set in the prior two years (2023 and 2024):

Tetra Pak just launched a heat-pump-based pasteurization system that can cut energy use by up to 77%. Electrification + heat recovery = massive efficiency gains. This is the kind of behind-the-scenes innovation that quietly transforms entire sectors. www.foodtechbiz.com/business-upd...

That certainly tracks with Carney. www.theglobeandmail.com/politics/art...

Hey opinion editor people 👋 call me ☎️ (or actually email me? 📩?) please?

Thank god climate protesters are indulging their “nostalgic” desire to stabilize the world’s climate to stop our kids’ summers from being even more smoked-out and carcinogenic. And for wanting to keep the climate stable enough to grow food reliably & stop climate-volatility hike food costs. 😤😤😤

As Vancouverites rally around the city's reportedly endangered sustainability dept, a friendly reminder that its work is why "the city has already shaved 17 per cent off its carbon footprint from 2007 levels & now has one of the lowest per-person carbon footprints of any major Cdn city." #vanpoli

Two-thirds of California's power comes from clean energy. For 9 in 10 days so far this year, we were 100% powered for some part of the day by clean energy. The Golden State has become the world's fourth-largest economy because of our climate leadership, not in spite of it.

Solar peaks in India are rising as capacity installations come online, pushing coal down during midday. In April 2025, coal ramped down 52 GW in six hours as midday solar reached 60 GW, up 41% compared to the previous April. https://loom.ly/YXrBeIo

The growth of wind and solar power is happening rapidly in all kinds of countries. Except one. Which tells its own story www.ft.com/content/c406...

Americans have been dragged, tackled, beaten, tased and shot by immigration agents. They’ve had their necks kneeled on. They’ve been held outside in the rain while in their underwear. At least three citizens were pregnant when agents detained them. By @nicolefoy.bsky.social

Wild! This NOAA video shows how quickly fossil fuel CO2 can accumulate. It shows daily fossil CO2 over a 2 year period (2011-2012), starting with a concentration of *Zero*: "By the end of 2012, the entire Northern Hemisphere is red, illustrating a total accumulation of about 9 to 10 ppm of CO2"

Crazy weather. . . .

This feels more germane than any other metric for planetary warming. We are accruing heat. Ie. The earth is gaining more heat than it loses to space. And this heat gain is steepening. Net gain means more heat means more VERY UNWELCOME energy in the earth’s system.

People think of fire as fire. But in today’s burning world we have to think of how fire affects our water infrastructure, which in this province can be the very same forested watershed that is burning too hot.
