“It’s time to make oil giants pay up to repair the climate breakdown they’re driving. Think how many fire and flood defences we could build, or how many solar panels we could install, if big oil paid their fair share in taxes.” www.theguardian.com/business/ng-...

Tree planting is one of our strongest weapons. Restoring forests to pre-industrial levels could cool global temperatures by 0.34°C,about 1/4 of the warming we've already seen. One hectare of mature forest sequesters 20 tons of CO₂ yearly. Trees cool cities, clean air, and protect biodiversity.

As long expected. It’s climate science 101. The vapor thirst of the atmosphere increases exponentially with temperature. A law of physics known since the early 19th C (Clausius–Clapeyron law). It causes more drought even if rainfall doesn’t decline. www.theguardian.com/environment/...
