Also, if you really and truly love the ocean (and nature), you do need a car. Naturally. 🫶

People who love the #ocean (like Epstein loved women) need boats or Surfboards made of plastics (glass-reinforced plastic or rotomolded polyethylene PU). Divers and surfers wetsuits are made of polychloroprene and nylon or polyester. Most people who "love the ocean" still eat fish?

When #climate discourse is merely about symptoms such as extreme weather, fossil fuels, temperatures, solar or ppm instead of babies, meat, dairy, cars, airplanes, pets...

There is a convenient misconception that population growth is about poor countries and somehow racist.

We don't mean well and are not well.

#NTHE

When we say "save and protect nature", we mean the green spot below. We mean protecting the last ecosystems that can still keep us alive. We often claim that protecting the small green spot requires "more money" or "socio-economic development".

In short, we don't mean well and are not well. #NTHE

August was 1.71°C. September was even warmer. A single month is not a whole year and a whole year is not a 5-year trend. But... 2026 will be the warmest year on record, only two years after the record of 2024. 2027 will be hotter still. What about 2030?

Let me summarize the findings of the 2025 carbon budget report:

"Atmospheric CO2 growth is still growing. Fossil fuel emission growth alone can't explain why. It must be underestimated land use emission but we don't know how..."

Hausfather blocked me after asking this below. He has a new post out about how to transition to RE?

Here Zeke's paper from 2023, when we first went above 1.5°C. In it, Zeke basically denies that time, population & consumption are real. He makes an argument for mind over matter.

Reminder:

Causes = Population x consumption (meat, cars, airplanes)
⬇️
Symptom = °C, ppm or fossil fuels
⬇️
Symptom (tech) management = Solar, CDR or SRM

The more we ignore causes, the worse it gets. The worse it gets, the more costly it becomes to discuss symptoms and symptom management.

This recent research above builds in this from 2023. Basically, we allow physicist to model biology and we value food and water and how life works a tad less than we maybe should.

When do you think the next El Nino will occur? 2029?

"For droughts in breadbasket regions, climatic impact-drivers at 2 °C of global warming may turn out to be much more extreme than model-averaged projections at 4 °C warming."

If we reach 2°C with the next, not this, El Nino. What could be "more severe than the impacts of high global warming"? #NTHE

Some war #statistics get more traction than this here.

Insects & spiders had terrestrial ecosystems to themselves for tens of million years before the first amphibians arrived. They existed more than 200m years before the first mammals and dinosaurs (birds) walked the Earth. We now kill more than 70% of insect & spider populations per decade.

#NTHE

Only 0.7% of #spiders remain compared to a 40 years baseline.

Spiders, like insects, evolved from arthropods. They walked and lived on land for ages before the first #amphibians or mammals or #dinosaurs (birds) evolved on land.

"The model predicts a maximum population of 2.5 billion people that Earth might be able to maintain."

Global human population has surpassed Earth’s sustainable carrying capacity

We're adding 70-80 million more per year when we should be reducing. #NTHE

Ongoing acceleration (of both forcing W/m2 and ppm) means that things get worse faster, no matter how bad they already are. It's not intuitive but neither are humans. The only thing we can trust today is observational data and data trends like e.g. 1.8°C and accelerating.
