2023-08-12 at 4:40 AM UTC in World to hit temperature tipping point 10 years faster than forecastGlobal mean sea level has risen about 8–9 inches (21–24 centimeters) since 1880. The rising water level is mostly due to a combination of melt water from glaciers and ice sheets and thermal expansion of seawater as it warms.

Corals across several countries are bleaching and dying en masse from unprecedented levels of heat stress, prompting fears that an unfolding tragedy in Central America, North America and the Caribbean could become a global event.
US government scientists have confirmed reefs in Panama, Colombia, El Salvador, Costa Rica, Mexico and six countries in the Caribbean, including the Bahamas and Cuba, are suffering significant bleaching, alongside corals in Florida that began turning white almost a month ago. -

So scared of what you post you've posted over 120 pages about it for the last 2 years almost daily.

My hobbies have nothing to do with fear. I know yours do though, so I can see why you would think that. That thread is a celebration, nothing more. Not a single post in that thread indicates I am afraid of the content. -

The number of vessels waiting to cross the Panama Canal has reached 154, and slots for carriers to book passage are being reduced in an effort to manage congestion caused by ongoing drought conditions that have roiled the major shipping gateway since the spring. The current wait time to cross the canal is now around 21 days.

The real question is will you ever accept reality, and sadly I believe the answer to that question is that you cannot teach an old dog new tricks. Accepting reality isn't something you plan in doing one day, it is something you actively participate in right now. The future isn't reality, now is reality.
You can only avoid death for so long. You like to pretend you will kick deaths ass. -

2023-08-10 at 8:57 PM UTC in World to hit temperature tipping point 10 years faster than forecastOne man and his drone: ‘My hope is to shut down the coal industry’|How a citizen vigilante in West Virginia uses his drone to uncover polluters who would rather stay hidden
Inevitably, there has been a backlash to this work. Walk – who has a beard that would be at home in a Tolkien novel, wears army green and chugs sweet tea from a large can – is a recognizable local character. His iconoclastic campaign against coal has, he said, resulted in his car brakes being cut and even him being shot at.
At one point, as we drove through one slate-grey mining site, Walk saw some company employees ahead and did a swift U-turn, while offering advice on how to shelter behind a car wheel during a gunfight as we retreated. He previously used a four-wheel ATV to conduct the drone work and has sped away from security guards he feared could kill him and dump his body in one of the holding pits containing syrupy mining slurry. -

2023-08-10 at 3:47 PM UTC in World to hit temperature tipping point 10 years faster than forecastScientists are freaking out about surging temperatures. Why aren’t politicians?
For months, scientists have been sounding the alarm over unusual upswings in land and ocean temperatures.
The beginning of July marked the planet’s hottest week in recorded history. Last month was the warmest-ever June. The arrival of a strong El Niño is likely to push global temperatures even higher, whipping up extreme weather worldwide.
Meanwhile, the seas are heating up and temperatures in the North Atlantic in particular are “off the charts,” as European scientists put it.
Taken together, “it is a good demonstration of the fact that we are in uncharted territory,” said Carlo Buontempo, director of the EU’s Copernicus climate change monitoring service.
Yet leaders and lawmakers on either side of the ocean remain mostly preoccupied with the war in Ukraine and its economic fallout.
