(Illustration found here). Another rocking bit of climate-change science today and it’s not about drought, flooding, or mega-heat waves, but an entity that could make those things even worse — the operation of the Atlantic Ocean’s streaming service is close to collapse and the effect would be a real-big fucking deal. And it’s another one…
In the current stock of things this Monday afternoon — like Greece. Today the CDC put Greece and 15 other countries on a “Level 4: COVID-19 Very High” shit list for Americans to travel due to the surge of the Delta variant, while at the same time, Greece itself is in a weather meltdown. Climate change…
Some more climate-related items for this Thursday afternoon as the weekend looms just ahead — another wrecked week of weird. A special day today, sort of hand-in-hand with climate change and the environment — Earth Overshoot Day: Greed pretty-much is the origin story for CO2-fed climate change, and a real, up-close view of the self-centered…
Despite all the juice from a shitload of news, the climate crisis caught my attention again this afternoon, especially with reports that we’re close to tipping points for the worse aspects of global warming, if not already past those positions, which would be a panic-driven mark on life’s calendar. Contending with democracy under fire, a…
Overcast a bit this Sunday afternoon here in California’s Central Valley, yet still hot as shit — just at the century mark temperature-wise right now, which maybe/hopefully will be the high for the day and it’ll start cooling down. Out in the backyard just a short while ago, and even with the ‘soft’ cloud cover…
(Illustration Statue of Liberty and a part of New York harbor a couple of days ago — image found here). Near-clear skies and getting warmer this mid-day Friday here in California’s Central Valley — we’re supposed to hit triple figures by late afternoon, which is nothing new. Our good fortune so far is the air…
Warm but not on the boil side this late-afternoon Wednesday here in California’s Central Valley — just regular summertime shit with temperatures simmering just under the century mark, with more of the same expected the next few days. Although weather continues to be a major news story, back east in DC the shit-hitting-the-Republican fan is…
Weather and its ascribed consequences continue to hold sway this late-afternoon Saturday here in California’s Central Valley, we’re heavy-hot as we’re forecast for another ‘mega-heat-wave’ type-roll for the next few days, but happily not all that intense: In the original ‘mega-heat-wave in Canada last month, more deaths occurred than first reported — via CTV News…
Genius in rhythm and time — saw this earlier today at Miss Cellania‘s and it’s one of those can’t-look-away thingies: Now, guaranteed to bring you right back down — weather-impacts off climate change are being experienced worldwide, and maybe escalating, too. Not only out here in the West with our ‘heat domes,’ but also with…
Some more climate-related news this Wednesday afternoon, and as such with the normal, seems like more bad news for the planet — and a quicker-major increase of CO2 into the air: Evidence collected in the study was historic — using two sets of measurement gauges, one on the ground, and another taken by airplane, and…
