Dense forest engulfed in flames and smoke illustrating the impact of climate change on worsening wildfires.
From Argentina to Australia and South Africa, recent devastation shows that while wildfires are not caused by a single factor, a warming climate makes them more frequent, more intense, and more destructive.

Weather and climate extremes in a changing Arctic - Nature Reviews Earth & Environment
Rare and extreme climate events have increasingly occurred in the Arctic since ~2000. This Review outlines the observed and projected changes in atmospheric, oceanic and cryospheric extremes and expla...
This -> βWe usually think about warming as a gradual, quasi-linear change of temperature over time β it slowly gets warmer everywhere. But nonlinear changes occur across the entire system"
In the #arctic non-linear changes are leading to more extreme weather events

Ice society: looking for life at unlikely altitudes
James Bradley studies the microbes thriving in extremely cold environments.
My interview with @nature.com
βA new direction in our work is to understand the microbial inhabitants of the atmosphere. Is it just a dispersal mechanism for dormant cells, or does it harbour active microbes that grow and divide?β

The misleading use of the *salvation* word and concept.
They suggest solutions that may not *save* us, maybe just "delay" the problem, or "suspend" for some time.
The only solutions are through cutting #emissions, optimizing/reducing consumption of natural resources

Plant trees, make more green areas in and around our towns.
People who live in greener neighbourhoods smoke and drink less on average, and those who make regular visits to #nature tend not to smoke.

To help you see the utterly lunacy Norway's oil and gas policies, consider the 20000 kmΒ² area that yesterday was cleared for exploration - mainly in the Barents sea.
What they show is the total exploration area in a red thick line. So where are the new areas?
