“Effective urban design can greatly reduce the impacts of heavy rainfall & save lives & infrastructure, as can improving early warning systems." Alex Koberle on new wxrisk_sprectum study showing climate change & vulnerability worsened damage in #Brazil floods ▶️ow.ly/S39050JPlBj


It is hot in Europe & will potentially be extremely hot. These temperatures would have been lower if it wasn't for our burning of fossil fuels. This also means fewer people would have died. Heatwaves are by far the deadliest extremes in Europe (this includes the UK!)wxrisk_sprectum

Not only is Finnish forest carbon sink collapsing, the government counts on the sink to match fossil emissions for carbon neutrality 2035. This does not work. Climate models count on both forest sinks AND phase out of fossil fuels. No room for offsetting svenska.yle.fi/a/7-10024441?u…
