Climate change widened Valencia's 2024 extreme rain footprint by 55%, study finds
Human-driven climate change intensified rainfall that triggered Spain's deadliest natural disaster in a generation when flash floods hit the Valencia region in 2024, a new study showed on Tuesday.

Tipping points of the #Antarctic ice sheet revealed!
Temperatures of 1–2 °C above preindustrial levels triggers the long-term collapse of 40% of marine ice in West Antarctica once the ice sheet fully responds.
Marine-based sectors in East Antarctica are at risk of losing stability at 2–5 °C.

I read this as early modern values refusing to die. cruelty is how you get peasant farmers to do your bidding in sublinear preindustrial societies, and our collective lizard brains are having a hard time letting that go (for very motivated reasons in many cases!)
