#health #USA #US We find that renewable energy deployment yields greater combined climate and public health benefits than direct air capture across nearly all scenarios and regions, with direct air capture approaching cost-effectiveness only under highly optimistic assumptions about future technological breakthroughs https://www.nature.com/articles/s44458-026-00068-0 https://archive.ph/wip/bpSZr #ClimateChange #UpheavalClimate #ClimateInstability #MassAtrocity #pollution #ecology #environment #climate

#UK New analysis released today by the Energy and Climate Intelligence Unit (ECIU) indicates that UK food prices are on track to be 50% higher by November 2026 compared to levels at the start of the cost-of-living crisis in mid-2021. This would suggest that the amount of price growth seen in the nearly 20 years prior to the crisis would be achieved in just over 5 years – almost quadrupling the pace of food inflation https://aboutmanchester.co.uk/warning-that-food-prices-on-track-to-have-risen-50-per-cent-in-five-years/ #ClimateChange #pollution #environment #climate

The UK government commissioned a national security report on the implications of Biodiversity loss. Then Number 10 apparently decided against publishing it (last year). A couple of FOI requests later and an (allegedly) heavily redacted summary was released earlier this year without fanfare to satisfy legal requirements. https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/nature-security-assessment-on-global-biodiversity-loss-ecosystem-collapse-and-national-security Even the summary page makes for sobering reading. #UKPol #Sustainability #Environment #Biodiversity

#BassCoastShire #Victoria #Australia Bass Coast Shire Council in south-east Victoria wants the federal government to charge big polluters to help councils and communities recover from environmental disasters. The council says fossil fuel companies should be held partly responsible for extreme weather events https://www.abc.net.au/news/2026-05-04/bass-coast-council-pushes-fossil-fuel-levy-for-recovery-fund/106624424 #ClimateChange #UpheavalClimate #ClimateInstability #MassAtrocity #pollution #ecology #environment #climate

#SouthAfrica #SA But it’s not an infinite supply. The groundwater recharges when it rains. When rainfall decreases, aquifers can’t replenish as much. Heavy rainfall during severe droughts could also worsen groundwater quality in instances where water rapidly infiltrates through the dry soil, without undergoing natural groundwater filtering processes https://www.moneyweb.co.za/news/south-africa/boreholes-are-booming-in-a-drying-south-africa/ #ClimateChange #UpheavalClimate #ClimateInstability #MassAtrocity #pollution #ecology #environment #climate

@_elena@mastodon.social I just wish you the best in the conference. I wish that there could be also a conference about agriculture and hunger or environment I could attend! It would be a pleasure to discuss how we youth can be leaders of positive changes in our communities. #agriculture #environment

"Camp Mystic on Thursday halted plans to reopen this summer on the Texas river where floodwaters killed 25 girls and two teenage counselors, backing down in the face of outraged families and investigations that accused the all-girls Christian camp of dangerous safety and operational deficiencies." https://apnews.com/article/texas-floods-camp-mystic-reopening-27c49f3d478c3923dfff0cd97824382b #PublicHeath #weather #climate #environment #BuiltEnvironment #flooding #CampMystic #texas

A new study has found that 160 million small wetland patches release nearly one-quarter of methane emissions from wetlands outside forests Older satellite maps worked with very large grid squares, so many small wetlands barely registered or disappeared entirely When those wetlands covered only a small part of a grid, the maps often failed to pick them up, leaving large gaps in what was counted https://www.earth.com/news/small-wetlands-are-hiding-a-big-methane-problem-that-climate-models-are-missing/ #ClimateChange #UpheavalClimate #pollution #ecology #environment #climate
