Over 100 tons of dead fish in the port of Volos in central Greece, following a mass die-off attributed to extreme climate fluctuations. This isn't normal. No time to wait. #ActOnClimate

Yesterday L Pod made history as the first Southern Resident killer whales to return to Penn Cove since the horrific captures in 1970. Today Ls surprised us all again by not only returning to Penn Cove, but going much further into the cove.

#Australia is pushing the limits of human habitability in some regions yet again. A fierce #heatwave is forecast to hit this week, with temperatures soaring above 40C in many areas. There's no #monsoon cloud cover as yet, so the north will be one of the hottest places on earth.

The world's biggest rainforest, the Amazon, has lost an area the size of Germany + France combined to deforestation in 40 years. All those cheap hamburgers aren't the bargain they seem: they're costing us our planetary home. https://t.co/MzjuJGEX1P

Fossil fuel companies currently receive a tax credit for injecting carbon dioxide into oil wells to extract more oil, a process known as enhanced oil recovery. I reintroduced my bill, the End Polluter Welfare for Enhanced Oil Recovery Act, to repeal it. https://t.co/p910n5o0Qw

Rep. Ro Khanna reintroduced legislation to end federal tax subsidies for companies that use captured carbon dioxide to extract more fossil fuels.

๐๐ก๏ธ๐ The more data comes in, the more I think (even?) we have been underestimating how fast our climate is changing. The past 16 months were all warmer than any month before 2023 and comparing this to the previous (stronger) El Niรฑo indicates a decadal warming rate of 0.42ยฐC!
Today we presented the 'Warming in the pipeline' paper, lead by @DrJamesEHansen. The recording of the press conference is available here. At 34:30 min, I explain the effects of sulphur emission changes, notably from shipping, of accelerating warming: https://t.co/PCYV3Eu6bh
