Intact forest landscapes and other nature areas are our safety net, protecting people against extreme weather and climate crisis impacts.

The 1.5C target itself wasn’t a dream, it was a very serious target to ensure minimum risk.

The dream was in thinking that this target was achievable without objective commitments from countries, without talking about fossil fuels, with technological magical thinking, “net zero” ambiguity, business as usual, fossil fuel delegates at negotiation tables, growth imperative, greenwashing, charlatan-led carbon offsetting.

The growing reality of climate refugees - a resonating article by Wambui Mbuthia.

Climate change is not a sudden eviction notice for millions of displaced people. It is a slow and relentless erosion, chipping away livelihoods and forcing difficult choices.

In 2022 alone, more than 7.4 million people across #Africa were displaced due to climate shocks, adding to existing conflicts and instability.

Like #Tobacco companies, #plastics firms have been lying to the public about their products.

In plastics case it has been the viability of #recycling that has been the subject of deceit by major #corporations.

Given that plastics are related to #fossilfuels, this may come as little surprise given the mendacity & #politics of distraction conducted in the #energy sector.

Its now pretty clear that we've had the knowledge to address our #climatecrisis but its been hidden!

Chile: At least 112 dead and hundreds missing, thousands of homes destroyed as wildfires enter suburbs. Worst disaster since 2010 earthquake as President Boric declared a State of Emergency on the weekend.

Homes damaged: 12,122 with damages of varying magnitude in the commune of Viña del Mar affecting an estimated 31,703 people, while in Quilpué homes damages are estimated at 2,701. affecting 7,825 people.

The fires followed record high temperatures, low humidity and high wind speeds in central Chile driven by the El Niño weather pattern. Climate change increase in drought and extreme temperatures in Chile and globally is a driver for more intense #wildfires

An interesting article on the history of the Australian Open #Tennis competition.
"Perhaps the tournament’s biggest challenge, however, will be its longer-term adaption to #climateChange. Players have frequently cited the Australian Open as particularly taxing due to the heat, which can at times be extreme. The first heat policy was only introduced in 1998."

Yes #ClimateCrisis is forcing #Sport and athletes to adapt.

A heatwave in Antarctica totally blew the minds of scientists. They set out to decipher it – and here are the results

A heatwave in 2022 redefined scientific expectations of the Antarctic climate. Now the global community must prepare for what a warmer world may bring.

Queensland to see more storms and a heatwave on the way, after wild weather wreaks havoc over Christmas.

https://www.abc.net.au/news/2023-12-28/storms-south-east-gold-coast-brisbane-christmas/103268056

Not reported here, but there’s been astoundingly pervasive campaign to spread claims of ‘Chemtrails’ and ‘Geoengineering’ conspiracy as the reason for why the South-East Queensland was affected.
Gold Coast locals that follow LNP MP social media seem most subscriptive of the conspiracy, using the conspiracy theory to deflect and distract climate change awareness.

Prominent climate scientist, Dr Friederike Otto, Imperial College London, has a simple message for #Cop28.

“Climate change is already destroying lives, livelihoods, and ecosystems around the world. Until we radically cut carbon emissions, extreme weather events will become more frequent and intense. That means there is a human rights imperative to phasing out fossil fuels.

“Despite their carefully crafted, green-washed talking points, fossil fuel companies will not save the world...." Read more...
