Looking back to @wwattribution.bsky.social studies in 2025 showed again, in stark terms, how unfairly the consequences of human-induced climate change are distributed. The world does not have to be like this, we have a lot of agency to make it better. www.worldweatherattribution.org/unequal-evid...

Based on NASA CERES satellite observations, the amount of regional warming in the pipeline keeps increasing‼️
The level of Absorbed Solar Radiation is increasing and Outgoing Longwave Radiation can't keep up.

Was there any coverage of the recent record warmth in both the Arctic and Antarctic? Multiple global datasets now confirm these records, and I think it's really quite striking.
Here's some very quick plots showing NOAAGlobalTempv6 data from October too. And see my earlier posts.

How much carbon budget do we have left if we want to stay below 1.5˚C?
Just 2 more years at current rates. It is essentially impossible to avoid global temperature rise exceeding 1.5˚C.

As if it wasn't 'bad enough' already, climate models underestimate future Ocean Heat Uptake, because them get present-day Antarctic sea-ice wrong.
