Overshoot: The world is hitting point of no return on climate
With warming set to pass the critical 1.5-degree limit, scientists are warning that the world is on course to trigger tipping points that would lead to cascading consequences — from the melting of ice sheets to the death of the Amazon rainforest — that could not be reversed.

The Trump administration is trying to rescind a 2009 EPA finding that greenhouse gas emissions threaten public health. But a federal judge already found the administration violated federal law in handpicking researchers to support its case. buff.ly/h6j4Txe
Trump’s climate policy rollback plan relies on EPA rescinding its 2009 endangerment finding – but will courts allow it?
A federal judge dealt one blow to the effort when he found the administration had violated the law in handpicking a panel to question climate science.

❄️ Winter Storm Fern was a stress test and New England’s grid passed.

Some things worked and some still need fixing: grid flexibility, demand response, energy storage, and better planning for extreme cold.

Near record low Arctic sea ice & well above-normal temperatures in the Arctic have weakened the Polar Vortex allowing frigid air to spill into the mid-latitudes. Climate change is not just about warming but leads to more weather extremes.

A recent study has unveiled evidence of ancient coral reefs thriving in polar regions, suggesting that Earth’s climate was significantly warmer during the Eocene epoch. How might these findings reshape our understanding of past climate dynamics and current climate change?
