Three leading climate scientists have combined insights from 10 global climate models and, with the help of artificial intelligence (AI), conclude that regional warming thresholds are likely to be reached faster than previously estimated.

Mmmm faster then expected huh ?

Donald Trump has said many times in the last few months that because of global warming, sea level will rise an eighth of an inch in several hundred years...

He usually follows by adding that “we’ll have more beachfront property.”

It is just about the stupidest thing one could possibly say about sea level rise.

A recent interview with on of the few Adults in the "Climate Debate", Professor Kevin Anderson.

Queensland Health communicable diseases branch executive director Heidi Carroll said the disease could be life threatening in babies.

"They cough so much that they can't catch their breath. They then can't get enough oxygen into their systems," Dr Carroll said.

Well, that sucks :(

Whike this is for Finland I often wonder why Australia doesn't do such a thing? (That's not an argument for or against doing it but a genuine question)

If the LNP/ALP are so concered about an invasion by China that they'll bankrupt the nation to buy a few token nuclear submarines.it seems beyond bizzare to me that the sort of preparedness in the article is not prioritised as well? Or is it becase the submarine thing is all dick waving and posturing for votes and has little to do with actual national defence ?

More than a million people fled their homes ahead of Man-yi, which struck the Philippines as a super typhoon before significantly weakening as it swept over the mountains of the main island of Luzon.

Man-yi dumped heavy rain, smashed flimsy buildings, knocked out power and claimed at least eight lives.

Climate change is increasing the intensity of storms, leading to heavier rains, flash floods and stronger gusts.

I still can’t quite get over the fact that a scheme designed to save the lives of children became the latest culture war battlefield.

not even counting the long-term savings to the NHS from people taking up cycling or walking instead of driving, or the savings for many Welsh drivers caused by the reduction in their insurance premiums

Not sure if it belongs here but I thought it showed how hard it is to even change small things.

So why all the outrage? Well, it turns out that much of it was manufactured. In January of this year I did a little digging through four of the main Facebook groups opposing the change to 20mph in Wales. I found that in each case one of the admins was a Tory councillor from Sunderland who has, and this is hilarious, campaigned to have 20mph limits in parts of his home town.

Conservative politican scum baggery ?

Ultimately, the 20mph change was an attempt to rebalance the communities in which we live, so they are no longer dominated by cars. The policy aims to make our neighbourhoods more livable (20mph is three decibels lower than 30mph). It has a positive impact on particulate pollution because cars have to brake less. And it clearly saves lives.

Finnaly I have something to offer my country!

A new study led by an international team of scientists highlights tire particles (TPs) as the leading contributor to microplastics and calls for urgent, targeted research to address their unique environmental and health risks.

Accounting for nearly one-third of all microplastics,
