Your 'bonus moment of doom' for today:

"Insurance markets may collapse. Coastal property values may crash. Crop failures, mass migration, and cascading economic shocks will ripple through the system. We don’t know exactly what the trigger will be — but we can say with certainty that one will come."
The Inevitable Revolution Is Underway
A storm is coming — not just of climate collapse, but of political and spiritual reckoning — and what we do in the next five years will shape the revolution to come.

Your 'doom quote' for today:

"If your anxiety about global warming is dominated by fears of sea-level rise, you are barely scratching the surface of what terrors are possible, even within the lifetime of a teenager today."

Plague, famine, heat no human can survive. This is not science fiction but what scientists, when they’re not being cautious, fear could be our future.

Your 'moment of doom' for March 30, 2025 ~ The end of bees.

The people who produce this Mauna Loa atmospheric CO₂ record have a lab in Hilo, Hawaiʻi, about 50 miles (80 km) from the observatory. By closing the lab, it'll be really difficult to maintain the CO₂ observations.

Here's a major source of microplastics in soils.
Other sources, astonishingly, include the *deliberate application* of microplastics, to make soils more friable, and the plastic pellets in which many fertilisers are encased.
It is simply crazy and must stop now.
