Nvidia are going to spend $500 billion on increasing their carbon footprint. For context, the UN have estimated that it would cost $93 billion per year to end world hunger. Anyway, hope you're all enjoying the heat wave. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c78gr0jv0mdo #NVidia #ClimateCollapse #ClimateChange #ClimateCatastrophe #ClimateEmergency

Acne Flares May be Worsened by Climate Change While potentially protective, Boos and colleagues noted that cutaneous bacteria may be more vulnerable to higher effective UV radiation doses at increased temperatures, which are direct consequences of the changing climate. https://www.dermatologytimes.com/view/acne-flares-may-be-worsened-by-climate-change #ClimateEmergency #pollution #environment #ecology #ClimateCrisis #ClimateCatastrophe #CllimateChange #dermatology

"It’s been heath for hundreds of years. It’s not the heath that’s changed, it’s the environment around it. These are not really wildfires, they are often started with human barbecues, cigarette butts or litter, but the key thing is climate change" #Wildfires #DunwichHeath #ClimateEmergency #Suffolk ‘These are human fires, not wildfires’: Dunwich reflects on the devastation | Suffolk | The Guardian https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2026/aug/09/these-are-human-fires-not-wildfires-dunwich-reflects-on-the-devastation

A small chorus of right-leaning critics are trying to convince politicians that climate action is deeply unpopular, downplaying its seriousness in the process. They accept the reality of human-made climate change, but believe the impact of it won’t be as big as people argue, and that policies involved in mitigating these impacts will be expensive and difficult. #climateChange #climateCatastrophe #climateEmergency #climateBreakdown #tippingPoint https://www.theguardian.com/world/2026/aug/04/tuesday-briefing-inside-the-rights-heated-climate-denial-debate

Hungary and Romania have been forced to shut down nuclear reactors. They are increasingly relying on expensive power imports as heatwave conditions increase demand for electricity. Both countries use water from the Danube as coolant for their reactors. #climateChange #climateCatastrophe #climateEmergency #climateBreakdown #tippingPoint https://www.theguardian.com/world/2026/aug/03/romania-blasts-divert-danube-water-nuclear-reactor-energy-crisis-hungary

The terrifying scenes we’ve seen so far this summer are the latest part of a pernicious long-term pattern. Across the world, the past 11 years have been the 11 hottest ever recorded – and with a super strength El Niño forming in the Pacific which could pour yet more fuel on the fire, that trend is all but certain to continue. The climate emergency is here – and no one can say they didn’t see it coming. #climateChange #climateCatastrophe #climateEmergency #climateBreakdown #tippingPoint https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2026/aug/08/burning-summer-climate-denial-green-policies-sadiq-khan

Romania rushes to sink 4 barges in the Danube to keep a nuclear power plant’s second reactor running "...BUCHAREST, Romania (AP) — Romania raced on Thursday to sink four barges laden with rock into the Danube River in an attempt to redirect water downstream toward a nuclear power plant, to buy more time before its second reactor is likely forced offline due to record-low water levels...." https://apnews.com/article/romania-europe-nuclear-danube-drought-1ddb89604f06026c938363d57da53071 #nuclearpower #climateemergency

Extreme heat and its consequences are the result of a fossil fuel policy that is completely irresponsible and extremely dangerous. #climateChange #climateCatastrophe #climateEmergency #climateBreakdown #tippingPoint https://www.theguardian.com/world/2026/aug/07/extreme-heat-breaks-temperature-records-central-eastern-europe

What people now nervously call “the new normal” is, in truth, not normal and but a taste of things to come. These extreme weather events we are increasingly experiencing – and the warlike mood they create – represent attacks on our soil. They are a call to mobilize. #climateChange #climateCatastrophe #climateEmergency #climateBreakdown #tippingPoint https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2026/aug/06/wildfires-europe-world-war-two

Mark Carney: I don’t care about Climate Change, I’m building another oil pipeline to Burnaby. Canada Strong! Mother Nature: How strong exactly? Hold my beer. (A wildfire has broken out on the north side of Burrard Inlet, about 7km northeast of the Burnaby oil terminal, the terminus of the Transmountain Pipeline. It is currently 1.5ha and out of control but updates often come slowly on the web. News reports are that a few homes have been “tactically evacuated” and more evacuations may come according to Metro Vancouver government.) #bcwildfire #canpoli #cdnpoli #climateemergency #endfossilfuels #transmountain #tmx #alberta #abpoli https://wildfiresituation.nrs.gov.bc.ca/incidents?fireYear=2026&incidentNumber=V11470&source=map

While renewables are cheaper than fossil fuels in nearly all circumstances, fossil fuels are more profitable, because useful reserves are limited and can each be monopolised by a single corporation, while prices can suddenly take flight in times of war or chaos. Almost all the very rich are heavily invested in them. #climateChange #climateCatastrophe #climateEmergency #climateBreakdown #tippingPoint https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2026/aug/05/murderous-heat-climate-disaster-mediterranean-life-radical-right

Opinion "We launched a war on nature. Now we are in a climate war zone Summer is not what it once was. We have been robbed of one of life’s great joys ,..,.,., It’s as if we launched a war against nature, and that has turned place after place into something that resembles a war zone. The climate movement is a peace movement, a movement to end this war and its casualties. We often talk about what climate change has wrecked in terms of what’s material, tangible, structures lost to fire, flood, or sea level rise, trees dying, species threatened, glaciers melting in warmer weather. But summer was an immaterial treasure and joy that belonged to all of us. 👉There have been youth-led lawsuits against the producers of climate chaos and the governments who’ve refused to act adequately – essentially for robbing them of their future. Robbing us all of the immeasurable joys of summer as it was is part of that theft. It’s not the main reason that climate action matters so much, but it’s a reminder that what we’re losing is not only the terms of our survival and our safety, but our freedom and pleasure."👈 https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2026/aug/04/summer-heat-climate-war-zone #climate #climatecrisis #summer #climateemergency #joy #youth #activism

Heatwaves have been made more intense and more likely by the fossil fuel-driven climate crisis. The heatwave that affected western Europe at the end of June was the most severe and widespread ever. A series of huge wildfires, supercharged by the climate crisis, has torched large parts of Europe this summer. Rivers in Europe are facing extremely low flows. #climateChange #climateCatastrophe #climateEmergency #climateBreakdown #tippingPoint https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2026/aug/03/july-driest-month-southern-england-since-records-began

@urlyman@mastodon.social alternatively, if we concentrate on electric smelters and kilns, we won't have enough clean energy to power them. Of course, we could continue to burn #FossilFuels to do either the power generation or the materials processing, but in that case we all die fairly quickly — probably this century. Or else we could use our available power and structural materials to build #GenAI #DataCentres, in which case we all die even more quickly. #ClimateEmergency /Continued
