Absolutely unbelievable how solar power has taken off worldwide during the Hormuz oil crisis. You don't have to hand it to him, but Trump may have done more to finally kick off a global civilization of effete librul solar users than anyone else in the West

Peter Gleick@petergleick.bsky.social · 2d agoThe speed of #climate change has accelerated dramatically in the last decade, from 0.2°C per decade from 1970 to 2015 to 0.35°C per decade over the past ten years. And politicians still fiddle while we burn. www.sciencedaily.com/releases/202...
Another decent size earthquake for New Zealand. A couple weeks ago we had a similar size one at the opposite end of the country! Strong earthquake occurred 10 km south of Te Araroa: geonet.org.nz/quakes/2026p...
A magnitude 5.7 earthquake occurred 10 km south of Te Araroa, New Zealand on Sun Aug 2 2026 8:35 PM. The quake was 36 kilometres deep and the shaking was strong close to the quake.
The quake may have been felt in Cambridge, Gisborne, Hamilton, Hastings, Matawai, Murupara, Napier, Opotiki, Rotorua, Ruatoria, Taupo, Tauranga, Te Araroa, Te Aroha, Te Awamutu, Te Kaha, Te Kuiti, Tha...

Pedro Sánchez has sent a letter to the EU institutions complaining about the political reaction of some member states to the migratory crisis in Ceuta. “In the current international context, the European Union cannot afford this kind of selfish, polarising and unlawful reaction.” 🧵
Bordeaux: Meer belachelijk hete dagen in deze ene zomer, dan in de hele voorafgaande 105 jaar. Iets met #klimaatverandering 😵
Nahel Belgherze@wxnb.bsky.social · 5d agoBordeaux, France, has now recorded more days above 40°C in 2026 alone than during the entire 105-year period from 1920 (when observations began) to 2025. This is deeply shocking.
Rifts are prominent tectonic features on Venus. A study in Nature Geoscience indicates that rifts on Venus are still, or were recently, active and may have undergone faster extension than usually assumed, potentially because of mantle plume activity. go.nature.com/4bdXot0 ⚒️🔭🧪

Using the finite fault model provided by the USGS, I was able to plot it and its focal mechanism. This is a combined inversion of both earthquakes. The estimated rupture length for this segment is approximately 250 km, extending along the San Sebastián Fault. #Venezuela #earthquake
