In Austria, there are floods in one part of the country, and such extreme drought in other parts of the country that there’s no grass for the cows to eat in the fields and they have to be fed the hay that was planned for the winter. not even a statement from the government about climate change!

www.theguardian.com/commentisfre... “Ludicrous would be allowing the US, under the grasp of a handful of villainous, ecocide billionaires and ideologues, to drag us all into the abyss of even more years of catastrophic inaction.” Finally a spine and a great idea. Tariff the MAGA ecocriminals!

Europe is burning – and if Trump’s war on the climate is not met with sanctions, things will only get worse | Alexander Hurst

The 6 largest oil companies will collectively rake in $45B in profits in the second quarter of 2026 — nearly double what they made in the first quarter. Meanwhile, Canada, France, and Spain are battling record-breaking wildfires spurred by the climate crisis. Big Oil profits while the world burns.

Global Warming is a threat to ALL life as we know it, humanity WILL NOT SURVIVE this, some reptiles, insects, sharks, some flora, but humans are not going to beat back global heat UNLESS we cease fossil fuel usage extensively and advance solar & wind solutions in a war against GW.

Alles, alles war und ist bekannt und es wird weiterhin ignoriert. Wir haben den Pyrocumulonimbus 2020 erklärt, die Mechanismen sind die Gleichen. In Frankreich war zumindest ein Cumulus dieser Art zu beobachten. Die Brände erzeugen ihr eigenes Wetter. #Klimaignoranz ist tödlich.

To climate deniers: You said it was a hoax when 18M hectares burned in Canada in 2023. You ignored it when 2025 became Norway's hottest year ever. Now forests above the Arctic are burning while Canada's smoke reaches Europe. At what point will you reflect?
