I often get asked: what impacts would a shutdown of the Atlantic ocean circulation #AMOC have? A short overview is found in this expert report. Impacts include e.g. widespread domestic food insecurity in Northern Europe and strain on global food systems. https://t.co/Mir5KAYvXQ #ClimateChange #FoodInsecurity #AtlanticCirculation #EU #NO

Banda, the hottest place in India this summer, has experienced extreme temperatures of 47-48°C (116-118°F) for over a week, forcing its over two million residents, many of whom rely on outdoor labor, to adapt their daily routines to cope with the relentless heat, as they seek shade and rearrange their lives around the scorching conditions, highlighting the broader impacts of climate change on health and work in the region. #ExtremeHeat #ClimateChange #Heatwave

Completely possible. All GHGs emission still growing, aerosols still declining. Multiple feedbacks kicking in and/or getting stronger. Acceleration continues. https://t.co/eb2uijNnzX #ClimateChange #GHGEmissions #FeedbackLoops #Thetweetdoesnotmentionanyspecificcountries.Therefore #therearenocountrycodestoreturn.

A landfill outside #Santiago has been identified by @UNEP as the world's largest human-made methane hotspot. #Methane is 1 of the fastest drivers of warming, but also 1 of the quickest emissions to cut.

"Late spring" is the new "early summer". Warming is accelerating, to not a new normal, but will get much worse. #ClimateChange #GlobalWarming #SeasonsShift #Therearenospecificcountrymentionsinthetweetprovided.Therefore #theresponseis:

This morning, I opened, via video, the second-ever environmental justice conference in Tallinn, hosted by @MFAestonia and @MTYMondo. Climate change is far more than an environmental challenge. It is reshaping global security, undermining economic stability, threatening human https://t.co/1oI8b4iQss #EnvironmentalJustice #ClimateChange #GlobalSecurity #EE

Amidst a record-breaking heatwave in France, illegal swimming became popular among Parisians at the Saint-Martin canal, despite police warnings about safety risks and water quality, reflecting the urgent need for accessible cooling spaces during extreme weather conditions. #ParisHeatwave #IllegalSwimming #ClimateChange

This BBC documentary by Jonathan Renouf on abrupt climate change due to ocean circulation tipping is one of the best. From 1999, with top experts like Overpeck, Alley & the late Wally Broecker, it's chillingly current: that risk looks much higher now. https://t.co/ATcIdnZuWT #ClimateChange #OceanCirculation #Documentary #Nospecificcountrycodesarementionedinthetweet.

Has the Atlantic overturning #AMOC shut down before? It very likely has, e.g. during Heinrich Event 4 around 40.000 years ago, in response to ice sliding into the Atlantic the water. Climate model simulations of this agree well with paleoclimate data. https://t.co/oMbj34EvJj #ClimateChange #Paleoclimate #AMOC #Nospecificcountrycodesarementionedinthetweet.

Fastest rate of CO2 increase prior to Industrial Revolution over the past 66M years was 4 billion tons of CO2 p.a. We add quater of that amount just from eating rice. #CO2 #ClimateChange #Sustainability #Nospecificcountriesarementionedinthetweet #sotherearenocountrycodestoreturn.

1 temperatature record - who cares 10s temperature records - interesting, climate change is happening, but nothing that special 100s temperature records - ok, this is definitely not normal 1000s temperature records - WTF is happening ??? #ClimateChange #TemperatureRecords #WTF #Therearenospecificcountriesmentionedinthetweetprovided.

A recent unprecedented heatwave across Western Europe has led to hundreds of temperature records being not just broken but significantly surpassed, with scientists attributing this extreme weather to climate change and the presence of a heat dome, raising urgent concerns about the adequacy of current infrastructure to handle such extreme conditions. #ClimateChange #Heatwave #TemperatureRecords

An unprecedented heatwave has caused hundreds of temperature records to be shattered across western Europe, including France and the UK, with scientists attributing this extreme weather to a heat dome and human-induced climate change, which has accelerated warming in the region significantly over the past few decades. #ClimateChange #Heatwave #TemperatureRecords
