Bbc #Wato (Jonny Dimond) just did a whole item on the Thames barrier needing replacing early… without once mentioning the >reason< why!: ie Without mentioning human caused climate chaos / sea-level rise. In the middle of this summer of extreme climate impacts, that’s a stunning fail. Pse repost.

How many people die from extreme temperatures, and how this could change in the future? Think about someone dying from extreme temperatures. You probably pictured someone passing out from heat stroke or dying from hypothermia.

Small multiples (six line charts) of the relationship between average local temperature and relative risk of premature death where each city’s curve marks a minimum-mortality “optimal” temperature and shows mortality rising at colder and warmer temperatures. Cities shown with their minimum mortality thresholds: São Paulo (22.5°C), Vancouver (17°C), Capetown, South Africa (23°C), London (18°C), Paris (20°C), and Austin, Texas (27°C). Source: Chen et al.

I explain why on Rhode Island PBS public radio! And the hosts clarify better than I do ;) thepublicsradio.org/possibly-pod...

What creates more carbon pollution: beef or dairy? - TPR: The Public's Radio

We talk a lot about the carbon pollution that comes along with eating beef, but this week on Possibly we’re asking: what about eating dairy? How do they compare?
