Immer wieder kommt die Idee auf, man könnte doch einfach die Sonne verdunkeln, um das Klima zu retten. Startups werden gegründet, man betreibt politisches Lobbying. Diese Idee ist falsch und gefährlich - sie ist bloß der Versuch, mit dem Klimakollaps auch noch Geld zu machen.
Geoengineering: Jetzt mach doch mal die Sonne aus!
Kann man die Klimakatastrophe abwenden, indem man die Sonne verdunkelt? Seltsamerweise ist diese seltsame Vorstellung nicht totzukriegen.

One of the reasons why an #AMOC shutdown “cannot be considered a low likelihood risk anymore” is this study:

Hear the latest science as I presented it last month at the ATLAS25 event in Helsinki.
Let me know if anything is unclear, or if you see good reasons why your government shouldn't immediately act on this. 🌊

So entsetzlich das Abtauen der polaren Eiskappen ist, so phantastisch sind die Entdeckungen, die nun auftau(ch)en.
Allerdings geschieht der Eis-Rückzug derzeit so schnell, dass ArchäologInnen kaum mit der Sicherung der Funde nachkommen

SOOOOO 🥁

Today the European Commission is releasing its action plan for high speed rail

Everyone excited?

No, me neither. Sorry. I fear it's going to be a load of nice words, and no way to make anything happen...

Der Oktober verlief heuer unterdurchschnittlich warm.
damit haben wir heuer bisher 7 warme Monate und 3 unterkühlte. In Summe liegt das heurige Jahr bisher um genau +1 Grad über dem Schnitt der aktuellen Klimanormalperiode (1991-2020).

New study in Nature by Lin et al shows how the sea-level rise from the melting Ice Age ice (a total of 120 meters rise) ended thousands of years ago.
Until our fossil fuel use started a new phase of rising seas.
Graph shows the global mean rate of sea level rise.

Really important paper led by my @iiasa.ac.at colleague Alex Nauels www.nature.com/articles/s41...
“The difference between decisive climate action today and continued high emissions is not just measured in degrees of warming but also in meters of sea-level rise” 👏👏👏
Multi-century global and regional sea-level rise commitments from cumulative greenhouse gas emissions in the coming decades - Nature Climate Change
It is important to understand how much long-term sea-level rise is already committed due to historical and near-term emissions. Here the authors use a modelling framework to show how decisions on glob...

Das sind übrigens ziemlich gute Ratschläge generell bei Infektionskrankheiten:

Auskurieren, möglichst niemanden anstecken, besondere Rücksicht auf besonders Gefährdete
Weil leider die meisten darauf keine Rücksicht nehmen, insbesondere in Gemeinschaftseinrichtungen, haben Arbeitgeber und alle anderen einen Nachteil und die Krankenkassen belasten die Kosten auch, die dann an sie Versicherten in Form von Kostensteigerungen deutlich werden 🤷🏼‍♀️
