Your 'moment of doom' for Aug. 5, 2026 ~ Sympathy for the devil. "warming is accelerating ... That’s because traditional industrial pollution that creates soot and smog — which cool the planet and mask greenhouse gas-triggered warming — is decreasing." apnews.com/article/warm...
This summer isn't breaking heat records — yet. Wait until El Nino kicks in, scientists say
With parts of the globe aflame in wildfires, deadly heat waves parking over cities, record hot oceans and a strengthening super El Nino, it seems like we’re baking through the hottest year on record.

Breaking News! Code UFB!!! The ECMWF just released its August update to its Nino 3.4 forecast plume, and the median December peak is now over 4.0°C, up from 3.9°C in July. charts.ecmwf.int/products/sea...
Breaking News! Code: Bonkers! El Nino continues to spike towards an all-time record high anomaly, with the Nino 3.4 sea surface temperature more than 2.6°C above the 1991-2020 baseline as of August 4th, and more than 1.0C° above the previous August 4th record set in 1997.

Why are the devastating fires 🔥 in the Pacific NW so immense? Is it ‘just summer’? Land management issues? Climate change? In this short video we cover a ton of ground with an in-depth analysis on what the data shows. Stick around for a complete picture of the #science of these #wildfires #spokane

Your 'doom quote' for today: “It is the biggest threat humanity has faced, with the potential to wreck our social fabric and way of life. It has the potential to kill millions, if not billions, through starvation, war over resources, displacement." www.nmn.com/news/living-...
Living Longer May Be Pointless, Experts Predict It’s Too Late
Long-ignored climate experts predict a global catastrophe due to a 2.5 C° temperature increase, potentially making attempts at living longer a fruitless endeavor.

The latest CFSv2 forecast for the Niño 3.4 region shows a maximum of about 4.4°C in November. The Climate 8-ball is in rehab (a friend's daughter explained to me what '8-ball' meant to her).
Your 'moment of doom' for Aug. 4, 2026 ~ Easy come, easy go. "Hungary and Romania have been forced to shut down nuclear reactors cooled by the Danube for the first time, as record-low water levels deepen fears of an energy crisis across the region." www.theguardian.com/world/2026/a...

Breaking News! Code Bonkers! As of August 3rd, Nino 3.4 has crossed 2.5°C above the 1991-2020 baseline. The Climate Casino predicted August 1st for this crossing and now has a lot of fake-bets to pay out. Was the fix in? Next up, 3.0°C by August 21st.
Just to be clear, using the most current scientific terminology, global sea-surface temperatures are currently 'bonkers'. Will temperatures make it to 'uncharted territory' by the end of 2027? The Climate Casino is taking the Over.
Your 'moment of doom' for Aug. 3, 2026 ~ Let them eat beans on toast "Farms across the country were affected by floods over the winter, making planting extremely difficult, and now in many areas they do not have access to water as irrigation is being restricted due to drought."

See 2026 on right? It’s the hottest the El Niño subsurface has ever been measured. If we are being honest, we have to do serious research into how excess heat due to climate change (90% stored in Ocean) likely fuels stronger El Nino’s. To no one’s surprise, stored heat is coming back to haunt us!
Jeff Berardelli @weatherprof.bsky.social · 2d agoAnother El Niño Record! Watch as heat back ups at the end. The heat building below the surface, which fuels El Niño, is higher than ever measured. This shows the heat just below the Trop Pacific sfc, moving from the W.Pacific Warm Pool where it’s stored, to the E. Pacific Sfc where El Niño forms 1/
Earth is now warming faster than at any point in recorded geological history - around 10 times faster than the extreme warming event 56 million years ago and 20 times faster than at the end of the last ice age. We are almost certainly in a new extinction event.
Crossing one planetary boundary is an existential threat as the risks increase exponentially once crossed. E.g. Old growth forests stand for biosphere health. When we cross all planetary boundaries at the same time without ever slowing down a single boundary, they amplify each other. #Exponential^2
Hugo@nonviolence.bsky.social · 2w agoRegarding tipping points: Everything in red is tipping today. Regarding how much time we have left: None. Human extinction is now almost certain by 2080 and social collapse should start before 2030.

The diarrhea lettuce company, Taylor Farms, uses slave labor contracted from the Arizona Dept. of Corrections. The backbreaking labor is often performed by imprisoned Mexican nationals who would be otherwise ineligble to work in the US. They are paid $1.50 an hour.
The Diarrhea Lettuce Company Has Been Linked to Forced Labor
The lettuce-producing Taylor Farms was linked to the widespread use of prison labor before its involvement in a cyclospora outbreak.
