2024-07-29 at 4 PM UTC in 4 hottest days ever observed raise fears of a planet nearing ‘tipping points’4 hottest days ever observed raise fears of a planet nearing ‘tipping points’
As global temperatures spiked to their highest levels in recorded history on Monday, ambulances were screaming through the streets of Tokyo, carrying scores of people who had collapsed amid an unrelenting heat wave. A monster typhoon was emerging from the scorching waters of the Pacific Ocean, which were several degrees warmer than normal. Thousands of vacationers fled the idyllic mountain town of Jasper, Canada ahead of a fast-moving wall of wildfire flames.
By the end of the week — which saw the four hottest days ever observed by scientists — dozens had been killed in the raging floodwaters and massive mudslides triggered by Typhoon Gaemi. Half of Jasper was reduced to ash. And about 3.6 billion people around the planet had endured temperatures that would have been exceedingly rare in a world without burning fossil fuels and other human activities, according to an analysis by scientists at the group Climate Central.
These extraordinary global temperatures marked the culmination of an unprecedented global hot streak that has stunned even researchers who spent their whole careers studying climate change. -

Alaska's Juneau Icefield is melting at an alarming rate, doubling its pace of decline in recent decades.
This vast expanse of interconnected glaciers is shrinking faster than ever before, according to The New York Times, raising what it said scientists called "incredibly worrying" concerns about the future of our planet's ice. -

2024-07-27 at 1:47 PM UTC in Canadians mourn Jasper as beloved mountain town devastated by wildfiresCanadians mourn Jasper as beloved mountain town devastated by wildfires
There was a similar outpouring of grief when wildfire tore through the historic Maui town of Lahaina last August, leaving it in ruins, and when Hurricane Fiona devastated the P.E.I. coastline in 2022.
Fiona caused over $289 million in insured losses across the Island. The damage to P.E.I.'s beloved beaches and sand dunes left many describing feelings of loss and grief. The term "ecological grief" has been used to describe this feeling in research studies.
"Such experiences resonate strongly with [the] concept of 'solastalgia', described as the homesickness one feels whilst still at home and, more recently, as grieving related to the loss of a healthy place and a thriving ecosystem," -
2024-07-27 at 1:27 PM UTC in We Just Lived Through Two of the Hottest Days Ever. Does Anyone Care?We Just Lived Through Two of the Hottest Days Ever. Does Anyone Care?
No, nobody cares:First, nobody cares about numbers. They care about stories. They care about emotion. They care about life, death, hope, dreams. And money. A heat statistic is not a visceral thing. It is a data point. And thanks to years of strategic targeting of trusted media and scientific institutions by far-right autocrats everywhere, we live in a world that increasingly distrusts data points. Where is the line between fake news and fake data? On social media platforms, it’s easy to find climate deniers claiming that temperature monitoring stations are all located in hot places on airport runways or in sun-baked parking lots, suggesting that there is some grand conspiracy to crank up the temperature readings so that George Soros can control the world and force you to sell your jacked-up 4-wheeler and grill crickets instead of hamburgers at your next summer BBQ.
…
Instead of being shocked by a brutal heat dome, or a devastating wildfire, we just accept that is what world is like now. I live in Austin, which had 42 days last summer above 105 degrees. It was shocking and brutal. But the response from many Texans was, “Yeah, it’s always hot in Texas.” No statistic was going to change their view about that. People come to believe that that heat waves that cook cities are just the way that nature works. In some ways, this is the dark side of climate adaptation. We adapt by learning to live with it. Air pollution from fossil fuels kills about five million people every year. But those deaths are largely (and tragically) background noise. It has just become part of life in the 21st century. -
