These six studies show a central estimate of warming from 2.4C to 2.9C, with large climate system uncertainties due to climate sensitivity and carbon cycle feedbacks; its possible that current policy warming could be as high as 4C if we roll 6s on the proverbial climate dice.

This is insane. 🤦‍♂️

Why do tech giants like Elon Musk and Bill Gates keep on saying such dumb things about climate change?

They have access to the best possible experts, who could actually teach them something, if they would only ask and listen…

Windows of opportunity arise when forecast models provide strikingly accurate guidance on seasonal timescales. Why do they occur when they do? Do they have recognizable precursors? Does predictability depend on the quantity? eos.org/opinions/sci...
Scientists Must Join Forces to Solve Forecasting’s Predictability Desert - Eos
To strengthen societal resilience to worsening natural hazards, siloed Earth system science communities must collaborate to understand conditions that favor skillful subseasonal-to-seasonal forecasts.

The main reason climate policy has failed is that it's opposed by an international coalition of fossil fuel incumbents, authoritarian governments, & oligarch-owned media.

That's it. It's the people who killed it who are responsible for killing it! Not the people who supported it! FFS.

NEW! Dept of Education workers say their OOO replies were forcibly changed to blame Democrats for shutdown. When employees changed their responses back to the more neutral language, it changed yet again to the partisan response.
