suggesting fish may be exploiting prey that also concentrates near those boundaries. That spatial clustering means catch rates near hypoxic edges will be elevated, and stock assessments built on standard distribution assumptions could be systematically off https://www.ecoportal.net/en/fish-lake-erie-oxygen-depleted-zones/31651/ #ClimateChange #UpheavalClimate #ClimateInstability #ClimateReversal #MassAtrocity #pollution #ecology #environment #climate

Periods of ⁠extreme ⁠heat are becoming more frequent, ⁠intense and longer-lasting as climate change warms the planet, the U.N. ​weather agency said on Tuesday, noting changes since the famously hot European summer of 1976. Parts ‌of Europe are enduring their fifth ‌heatwave of a summer marked by drought, wildfires and record-breaking temperatures https://www.usnews.com/news/world/articles/2026-08-11/extreme-heat-becoming-more-frequent-and-intense-un-agency-says #ClimateChange #UpheavalClimate #ClimateInstability #ClimateReversal #MassAtrocity #pollution #ecology #environment #climate

RE: https://fediscience.org/@petergleick/117076672394712164 You might want to read and share this new article with your friends and family. Peter Gleik offers solutions to the increasing global water crisis, so why not learn about these solutions, then demand our governments follow through and take action to stop this humanitarian crisis. #FinnishWaterDiplomacyInitiative #Water #Climate #War #Heatwave #Drought

#AI #tech A new peer-reviewed study, using energy-economic modeling, finds that when AI is adopted at similar rates across fossil fuel and renewable energy sectors, its fossil fuel applications enable more emissions than its renewable energy applications avoid https://www.einnews.com/pr_news/933229421/study-finds-ai-s-fossil-fuel-applications-outweigh-its-climate-benefits-raising-global-emissions-up-to-1-8-gt-annually #ClimateChange #UpheavalClimate #ClimateInstability #ClimateReversal #MassAtrocity #pollution #ecology #environment #climate

Traditional plastic forks shed harmful microplastics. Plastic created from sugar is an alternative The Associated Press 8–10 minutes WOBURN, Mass. (AP) — At a Massachusetts lab, pebble-sized pellets are transformed into forks and films that won't leave persistent microplastics in the environment https://www.audacy.com/kdkaradio/news/business/biobased-biodegradable-plastics-climate-compost-838fb5b4619e5020e3c01157a312a5d8 #ClimateChange #UpheavalClimate #ClimateInstability #ClimateReversal #MassAtrocity #pollution #ecology #environment #climate

The globally averaged CO2 level reached 425.6±0.1 parts per million, a 53% increase from the preindustrial level of ~278 parts per million. Fossil fuel emissions in 2025 were also a record high in 2025, estimated to be 10.3±0.5 petagrams of carbon per year, more than three times the 3.0±0.2 petagrams of carbon per year in the 1960s https://www.eurekalert.org/news-releases/1139418 #ClimateChange #UpheavalClimate #ClimateInstability #ClimateReversal #MassAtrocity #pollution #ecology #environment #climate

#Europe Surprisingly, natural disasters and climate change have long been discussed in quite separate policy worlds. Last year, a United Nations report found a lack of policy coherence between disaster risk management and climate change adaptation in Europe https://theconversation.com/can-the-searing-european-summer-put-climate-action-back-on-the-agenda-or-will-disaster-response-take-over-289151 #ClimateChange #UpheavalClimate #ClimateInstability #ClimateReversal #MassAtrocity #pollution #ecology #environment #climate

#UK Urban canals reduce daytime temperatures by an average of around 0.8°C within their immediate surroundings, typically 20-50 metres away from the water Cooling is strongest during spring and early summer, reaching around 1.2-1.4°C During heatwaves, canals can lower nearby temperatures by 1.5-2.3°C The cooling effect substantially reduced the number of hours when people in the vicinity of canals would experience moderate and high heat stress https://www.nationaltribune.com.au/urban-canals-can-cut-temperatures-by-more-than-2c-during-heatwaves/ #ClimateChange #climate

#health #Louisiana #Florida #USA #US Flesh-Eating Bacteria Kills 5 in Louisiana Vibrio vulnificus, which thrives in warm, brackish water, has also killed 2 people in Florida this year Vibrio are more common from May through October, when seawater tends to be warmer. In recent years, however, outbreaks have occurred in places once thought to be too cold to support the bacteria, such as Long Island Sound, in part due to climate change https://archive.ph/mlqCH#selection-8247.0-8269.128 #ClimateChange #pollution #climate
