Big moment for Europe: in December, fully electric cars outsold petrol-only cars in the EU for the first time. This shows that clear, consistent policy works. Which is exactly why backtracking now would be a mistake. Rolling back targets or creating uncertainty would slow investment and innovation.
One of the strongest, clearest increases in likelihood & intensity, attributable to climate change, I've seen in a complex index like fire weather - the more intense & frequent events in Greece & Türkiye are already outpacing efforts to adapt. www.worldweatherattribution.org/weather-cond...

Important new study shows that current climate models underestimate the human-caused slowing of the #AMOC (Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation), because they neglect freshwater influx from Greenland melt and other sources. /1 🌊 www.nature.com/articles/s41...
Weakening of the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation driven by subarctic freshening since the mid-twentieth century - Nature Geoscience
Fresh meltwater entering the Labrador and Irminger seas has resulted in a slowing of the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation since the 1950s, according to a combination of modelling approaches...

Donald Trump recently shared a plot that many climate models have historically overestimated summer warming over the US corn belt But it turns out this is an egregious unrepresentative cherrypick, as @andrewdessler.bsky.social notes over at The Climate Brink: www.theclimatebrink.com/p/are-climat...

i would like to nominate Planet Earth for the 2024 climate communication award, this is a very effective way of conveying the urgency of climate change
December 2023 is now certain to be the warmest December on record in the JRA-55 dataset, beating the prior record by over 0.2C. It will end just below September as the second highest anomaly of the year (with respect to an 1850-1900 baseline period).
Global temperatures are now available from Copernicus/ECMWF's ERA5 reanalysis product for 2023. They find it was the warmest year on record by a large margin, at 1.48C above preindustrial levels, higher than the 1.43C that JRA-55 reported earlier this week:
Global temperatures in 2023 were really weird. For almost every other year we can pretty reliably predict temperatures (red dot and bars) based on the long term trend, the prior year, and the El Nino / La Nina conditions at the start. For 2023 this model completely breaks down:
Tendenza meteo. Quella che vedete sotto è la sezione verticale dell'atmosfera nel Nord Emisfero da 1 a 1000 hPa (Stratosfera + Troposfera). A destra della linea tratteggiata bianca la previsione (futuro), a sinistra l'osservato (passato). Andiamo verso il rosso, quindi?

New research suggests that fast jet-stream winds will get faster and faster in a warming climate. As this @carbonbrief.org guest post explains, that could mean "stronger severe storms and an increase in clear-air turbulence for aircraft passengers": www.carbonbrief.org/guest-post-w...
We talk about population growth, and most know we will peak. Few appreciate that after the peak, population will likely fall as steeply as it increases now. PS: This alone won't solve env. problems, but create others. Excellent @nytimes article: www.nytimes.com/interactive/...

In the first few days of COP28, three more nation states have joined the bloc of now eleven countries calling for a Fossil Fuel Non-Proliferation Treaty - the global initiative to manage an equitable transition away from oil, gas, and coal!
The nonlinear trend shows that the rate of warming in California is accelerating. And current temperatures are 1.95 C above the 1896-1977 average.
COP28 was already tarnished by Al Jaber's presidency. It's like putting the Chief Executive of a tobacco company in charge of a conference on lung cancer. Now this.
Cop28 president says there is ‘no science’ behind demands for phase-out of fossil fuels
