EXTRAORDINARY HEAT IN SOUTHEAST ASIA Never happened anything like this in 3 centuries of world climatic history Nearly every record of September High Minimum and many of high max. has been swept away in Thailand,Philippines,Malaysia and Indonesia. Most were set in 2025 and 2024

It remains amazing that fossil fuel producers, their politicians and climate change mitigation delayers are fine with causing hundreds of millions of deaths and massive destruction during the coming decades.

We need to feel rage against those responsible for hindering more effective climate change mitigation efforts.

Reminder: "If countries stay on the same path they are on now, the Earth could warm between 2.5°C and 4.6°C degrees within this century. If nations make good on all their climate-related pledges, the planet could warm between 2.1°C and 2.9°C." 𝙏𝙝𝙤𝙨𝙚 𝙩𝙚𝙢𝙥𝙚𝙧𝙖𝙩𝙪𝙧𝙚 𝙧𝙞𝙨𝙚𝙨 𝙬𝙞𝙡𝙡 𝙗𝙚 𝙘𝙖𝙡𝙖𝙢𝙞𝙩𝙤𝙪𝙨!

Sanctions on russia need to be water tight. Let's ensure russia receives no components, equipment, or machinery for their missile program.

1/ Zelensky, citing HUR chief Oleh Ivashchenko, says Russia plans to scale up ballistic missile production. Ukraine is calling on partners to fully block supplies of components, equipment, and machinery for the Russian missile program. Without foreign parts, the plan falls apart.

Great news! russia can't have many of these bombers they use for terrorism left.

Russia was a strategic and key partner in helping Bashar al-Assad’s regime kill and oppress Syrians for many years.

Fared Al Mahlool | فريد المحلول@faredalmahlool.bsky.social · 6d ago

Russian Foreign Ministry: The reception of Bashar al-Assad in Russia is being provided for purely humanitarian reasons. Is Russia really talking about humanity and humanitarian principles?

The country most responsible for climate change tries harder to ignore it. But it will bite them in the ass too.

A civilian geography professor was fired from West Point for pushing back after department officials barred faculty from teaching that humans contribute to climate change.

Fossil fuel industry and their politicians knew about the dangers of climate change already decades ago and decided to hinder any meaningful climate change mitigation efforts. We're not nearly angry enough with them. www.bbc.com/news/article...

Collapsed glacier likely caused devastating Nepal-Tibet floods, scientists say

Preliminary investigations by scientists have pointed to a collapsed glacier as the cause, highlighting the issue of rapidly melting Himalayan ice.

The daily global average sea surface temperature has just reached its highest level on record, per C3S. "The timing of the record is particularly notable. Global ocean temperatures are typically highest in March and April, following the austral summer, yet this record has been reached in August."

Time to increase our aid to Ukraine and tighten the sanctions on russia.

💔 Already 15 dead in Kyiv, — Klitschko. 📹 A crater left by a Russian missile strike in Boryspil. Simply in the middle of a street in a private residential area.

The USAID thing will eventually be talked about like a genocide

Considering how angry people get over even trivial matters, it is astonishing how little the very worst wrongdoers are hated. I’m talking about those most responsible for climate change, starting and enabling unjustified wars. If the worst ⁓0.436% could be kept in check, everything would be better.

I'm sure you all know that: The ASCII value for an uppercase X is 88. I'm also sure you all know what 88 means to some people who are obsessed with the letter X.

Another painful dawn in Kyiv after yet another nightmare night. Russia launched dozens of missiles at the Ukrainian capital, killing ten people and injuring more than 50. Rescue efforts are ongoing at the sites. #Ukraine #Ukrainianview

Elon Musk is busy stoking far-right culture wars across the West on the eve of SpaceX's IPO, with an impunity unmatched in modern corporate history (Zachary Basu/Axios) Main Link | Techmeme Permalink

How does a man whose companies keep running at a combined net loss become the world's richest?

And yet governments all over Europe stay in Twitter, lending credence and content to key channel for incitement and disinformation. It is as if during the Cold War, the Western European governments had used a KGB-owned media with awoved agenda as their primary communications and outreach channel.

xenophobic mass violence against black residents in Belfast www.bbc.com/news/live/cr...

It was quite clear Brexit would be a failure long before the vote was even announced. Right-wing populism has a strong tendency to result in failures.

Sam Freedman@samfr.bsky.social · 3mo ago

A whole 12% of voters think Brexit has been a success. And just 25% of Leave voters. Sigh.

Liian pitkälle edetessään tämä kehitys heikentää yhteiskuntarauhaa ja maanpuolustustahtoa.

Mikko Tuomi@mustapipa.bsky.social · 3mo ago

Tältä näyttää luokkasota. Rikkaimmat saavat aina vain enemmän, kun taas köyhimmillä on aina vain vähemmän. Kun samalla ajetaan hyvinvointipalveuita alas, jotta rikkaimmat saisivat vielä lisää veronkevennyksiä, yhteiskunta eriarvoistuu vauhdilla heikentäen turvallisuutta, vakautta ja talouttakin.

NEW from me: China’s carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions grew by 2% in the first quarter of 2026, with power sector emissions rising 4%, after a rise in the amount of “wasted” wind and solar power. Emissions remain below the peak in early 2024.

NVIDIA's market capitalization is much higher than the market value of Australia's about 370 million hectares of agricultural land. I had to check this claim and it seems to be true.

Keitä tämä sakon uhka koskee?

Today would be a good day to donate to Ukraine, increase sanctions on russia and send more military aid to Ukraine.

Last night, Russia launched one of its longest and most relentless drone attacks against Ukraine. Another night of death and destruction. And the indiscriminate targeting of civilians.

Arvoisat nastarenkaiden käyttäjät, joilla vieläkin nastat alla. Voisiko vaikka edes koulujen kesälomakaudeksi vaihtaa kesärenkaat alle, edes täällä eteläisessä Suomessa?

Esko Pettay@eskopettay.bsky.social · 4mo ago

Arvoisat nastarenkaiden käyttäjät. Nastarenkaiden käytöstä aiheutuvan katupölyn vuoksi kuolee vuosittain useita ihmisiä ja suurelle määrälle aiheutuu terveyshaittoja. Lisäksi nastarenkaiden aiheuttama teiden kuluminen aiheuttaa kymmenien miljoonien eurojen ylimääräiset kulut.

With all the amazing technology we have, how come we still need to work 5 days a week?

Suomen kurjistajien kannalta on toki "hyvä", että venäjä on niin syvältä, että meillä on varaa kurjistaa tosi paljon ennenkuin maanpuolustustahto romahtaa, mutta suosittelen silti pitämään huono-osaisistakin suomalaisista sen verran hyvää huolta, että kaikilla meillä on intressi Suomea puolustaa.
