1. EUROPE HIT BY WORST DROUGHT IN 500 YEARS



The landscape around Italy's river Po dried out during the summer of 2022.  The summer of 2022 was like no other across swaths of western and central Europe. The proverbially rainy England didn't see a drop of rain in weeks.

2. PAKISTAN SEES WORST FLOODS IN HISTORY



While water levels in European rivers were hitting record lows, the mountainous Pakistan in southwestern Asia struggled with the exact opposite problem. From June to October 2022, vast areas of the country were submerged in flood waters.

3. HURRICANE IAN BATTERS FLORIDA AND FIONA MAKES LANDFALL IN CANADA



Hurricane Ian seen from the International Space Station.  The Atlantic hurricane season of 2022 started late. For the first time in 25 years, not a single named tropical storm emerged above the Atlantic Ocean in the month of August.

4. FREDDY, THE LONGEST-LIVED TROPICAL STORM EVER, PUMMELS WEST AFRICA TWICE



Cyclone Freddy above Madagascar.  Tropical storm Freddy(opens in new tab) received much less media attention than Ian and Fiona when it rampaged western Africa in February and March 2023. From a weather disaster perspective, however, Freddy was a storm of a kind never seen before.

5. ANTARCTIC SEA ICE HITS RECORD LOW



Seasonal variations in the extent of Antarctic sea ice. Bad news arrived in February from scientists monitoring the Antarctic ice cap. The extent of floating sea ice surrounding the frosty continent shrank to a record low as the southern summer peaked, to only 66% of the levels usually present at this time of the year.

Yeah that, K-Dog.


Here's some history for those who still labor under the view that the Hydrocarbon Hellspawn have not been ALL IN (SEE: 😈🦕🦖🐍 MENS REA for at least 50 YEARS) on PREDATORY DELAY of any and all ACTIONS to repair our polluted, mass extinctions degraded biosphere by replacing hydrocarbon fuels ☠️ use with Renewable ⚡ Energy PLUS CANCELLING hydrocarbon fuels "industry" Government welfare queen subsidy handouts actions due to reality based scientific IRREFUTABLE EVIDENCE of 🚨 Catastrophic Climate Change CAUSED by Global Warmng CAUSED by continuing the absolutely INSANE profit over people and planet 🦖 burning of hydrocarbon based fuels for energy "business model":

The story of how one man cost us a world with less than 2°C of warming in 1989.

This is a follow-up video to Global Warming: An Inconvenient History, going into much more detail of events from 1979 to 1989. In particular this is the story of the "villain" of climate change, a man you've likely never heard of before. But is that a fair description? You be the judge.

This video essay in the style of Jon Bois and BobbyBroccoli is about the history of climate change, and how John Sununu is the villain of the story, preventing a binding agreement on carbon emissions at the Noordwijk conference of 1989. Who is to blame for climate change? Who caused global warming? Why was John Sununu so important? These questions and more are answered in this video about the history of science and global warming.

Where does 🙊🙉🙈 blind obedience to Capitalism's Social Darwinist Ideology of socially and environmentally destructive Profit over People and Planet end and a sense of responsibility start to take effect, if not at the highest levels of government power?

"Fascism has always involved a morally unprincipled, ruthless, and sociopathic pursuit of power as the supreme goal in and of itself. ... ... Having no moral center and being perfectly willing to lose and disdain old friends and allies is part of the game. Fascism has no problem with self-centered individual accumulation of wealth and/or power. To the contrary, its Social Darwinian ethos celebrates such accumulation in the name of natural selection, survival of the fittest, and proper social hierarchy." -- Paul Street - January 6, 2023

Truly 'Uncharted Territory.'



SNPPET:   

One understands why that was not quite as easy to put into headlines as Trump's arrest. But translated from the scientific, it's the rough equivalent of "South Pole to Planet Earth: Drop Dead." As the Guardian explained, in the best summary of the research I've seen, the study shows that "melting ice around Antarctica will cause a rapid slowdown of a major global deep ocean current by 2050 that could alter the world's climate for centuries and accelerate sea level rise."
