Don't look now, but the world has now installed 3TW of solar. Took 10 years to get from 100GW to 1TW. Less than 3 years to get to 2TW. Less than 2 years to get to 3TW. Analysts expect *9TW* by 2036.

The next phase of the boom may reveal a shift in who is gaining access to the technology.

Chockerande hög global medeltemperatur i havet nu, drivet av den accelererande klimatuppvärmningen och vad som kan komma att bli den kraftigaste El Niñon någonsin uppmätt. Fler och dödligare värmeböljor, skogsbränder och översvämningar är att vänta så länge vi fortsätter använda fossila bränslen.

Tillsammans med många andra forskare kommer jag att gå med i demonstrationståget på #denstoraklimatdemonstrationen i Stockholm 23 augusti. Vi behöver visa att vi är många som vill ha en klimatpolitik som möjliggör drägliga liv för våra barn och barnbarn. Tillsammans höjer vi våra röster.

I really need everyone to remember that the fossil fuel industry knew-knows exactly the climate hell we now inhabit, and are determined to make it FAR worse. That's because they have decided our lives are worth far less than their profits. We are not angry -or organised- enough.

Statistics like this are genuinely shocking, but so too has been the intensity and duration of this extraordinary heatwave in Europe. As a society, we have greatly underestimated--and therefore underpriced--the cost of highly extreme heat events in a rapidly warming world.

CLIMATE CHANGE ATTRIBUTION: "the first study to directly attribute the changes of a major Antarctic outlet glacier to the activities of humans." More than 1/3 of ice loss from the West Antarctic Ice Sheet is from Pine Island Glacier, one of the single biggest contributors to global sea level rise.

This is the future Big Oil built for us. Fossil fuel companies knew decades ago that their products would drive increasingly severe and frequent heatwaves, droughts, and wildfires, but lied to protect their own profits at the expense of public health and safety. The public deserves accountability.

Dangerous, record-smashing heat wave to scorch millions

Right now I'm in the epicentre of the heatwave, in southwest France, where the brutality of the heat has ground life to a halt. And I have to keep reminding myself: this is only the beginning.

Leah Stokes@leahstokes.bsky.social · last mo.

The heatwave in Europe is so extreme, it's 25–32°F (14–18°C) above normal. You read that right. France recorded it's hottest day ever. The UK had its hottest ever June day. The ground is exceeding 122°F (50°C). People are dying. Tell me again why we shouldn't talk about climate change???

Are we willing to invest just five cents per person per year to maintain one of the world’s most important climate monitoring systems? That provides crucial information about a potentially existential risk for Europe?

www.theguardian.com/commentisfre... We are raising the alarm because continuing observations of one of our most important components in the climate system are becoming unsustainable.

Human-driven sea-level rise has quadrupled frequency of extreme coastal sea-level events since 1900. Findings suggest climate change has already altered coastal flood risk and highlights need to integrate these changes into adaptation and risk management strategies: @natclimate.nature.com 🧪

Human-driven sea-level rise has quadrupled the frequency of coastal sea-level extremes since 1900 - Nature Climate Change

Sea-level rise in conjunction with storm surge and tidal variations leads to extreme sea levels that threaten coastal systems. Here the authors use tide-gauge data and models to quantify how anthropogenic climate change has increased the risk of these extreme sea-level events since 1900.
