#Amsterdam #Netherlands Amsterdam begins enforcing ban on adverts for meat and fossil fuels: ‘Climate crisis is very urgent’ Politicians behind move say it is about aligning Amsterdam's public spaces with its own environmental targets https://www.independent.co.uk/climate-change/news/amsterdam-meat-fossil-fuel-ad-ban-b2970028.html #ClimateChange #UpheavalClimate #ClimateInstability #MassAtrocity #pollution #ecology #environment #climate

#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

#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

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

“But in the past 10 years, we have, out of necessity, changed our approach here to encompass climate adaptation, which can be everything from encouraging people to grow climate-resilient crops, to building warehouses that can withstand floods, or introducing more sustainable water management practices.” https://www.independent.co.uk/climate-change/climate-crisis-poverty-aid-debt-africa-b2967343.html #ClimateChange #UpheavalClimate #ClimateInstability #MassAtrocity #pollution #ecology #environment #climate

A new study has found that a familiar Australian backyard bird, superb fairy-wrens, could disappear from a long-watched population within 30 to 40 years. Dry springs, warm winters, and hot summers now appear to chip away at the birds across the year, turning modest stress into lasting decline https://www.earth.com/news/an-iconic-bird-is-on-the-verge-of-extinction-due-to-many-small-climate-change-impacts-to-its-habitat/ #ClimateChange #UpheavalClimate #ClimateInstability #MassAtrocity #pollution #ecology #environment #climate

Your climate impact doesn’t end when you die. More people are considering ‘greener’ death options “Through death, life begets life,” said King. “She really liked that idea, too, that she can, in her passing, help give life to something else. That was very important to her. My brother, I think, sort of went along with the ride.” https://archive.ph/0jifP#selection-6831.0-6831.180 #ClimateChange #UpheavalClimate #ClimateInstability #MassAtrocity #pollution #ecology #environment #climate

As the feckless, fluidly mendacious convicted fraudster Donald Trump continues his campaign of diverting attention away from his past relationship with a dead paedophile by illegally attacking and blockading Iran, leading to a global rise in prices and shortages of essential products such as fertilizers, it’s perhaps easy to forget about good old climate change https://hqnetwork.co.uk/news/a-week-in-climate-change-1-may/ #ClimateChange #UpheavalClimate #ClimateInstability #MassAtrocity #pollution #ecology #environment #climate
