Globale Umverteilung von Wasser: Die Erde trocknet aus
Erstmals lässt sich aufzeigen, wie der Klimawandel den globalen Wasserkreislauf verändert. In Südeuropa hat die Bildung von Wüsten laut Forschenden bereits begonnen.

In #Science, Seo et al. show compelling evidence of a permanent global decline in terrestrial water storage. My Perspective explains how decades of satellite data, polar motion, and hydrological modeling helped reveal this irreversible shift. #ClimateScience 🔗 bit.ly/3RqSpuo @ufz.de

Quotes from Albert Einstein, Hannah Arendt, Gustave Gilbert, and Elon Musk, next to drawings of each in pencil style by Patt Bagely. In sequence: "empathy is patiently and sincerely seeing the world through the other person's eyes." - Einstein. "The death of human empathy is one of the early and most telling signs that a culture is about to fall into barbarism." - Arendt. "It is one of characteristic that connects all the defendants -- a genuine incapacity to feel with their fellow men. Evil, I think, is the lack of empathy." - Gilbert. "The fundamental weakness of western civilization is empathy." - Musk

“The biggest threat to America today is not communism, it’s moving America toward a fascist theocracy, and everything that’s happened during the Regan administration is steering us right down that pipe.” Frank Zappa

The recent election and the subsequent actions serve as undeniable evidence. Q.E.D.

Bloomberg philanthropy to cover U.S. climate dues after Paris withdrawal
Former New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg's philanthropy and other U.S. funders said on Thursday they will cover U.S. financial obligations to the UN climate framework after President Donald Trump called for the U.S. to withdraw - for a second time - from the Paris climate agreement.

The bishop at President Trump’s inaugural prayer service implored him to “have mercy” on gay, lesbian and transgender children, as well as undocumented immigrants.

“I ask you to have mercy upon the people in our country who are scared now,” asked Bishop Mariann Edgar Budde.
Bishop Tells Trump to ‘Have Mercy’ on Immigrants and Gay Children
The direct appeal to President Trump at the start of the first full day of his presidency was a remarkable moment at a National Cathedral event that has not historically been political.

A Nazi salute by Musk at Trump’s inauguration—and yet, you’re still in X? How much more will it take? I urge everyone with common sense and democratic values to leave his platform. It’s time for politicians, universities, institutions, and individuals to take a stand and leave X.

2024 kam 🇩🇪 erstmals seit 1961 ohne Atomstrom aus. Was wurde gewarnt: Blackouts, Brownouts, explodierende Strompreise & Kohle-Comeback. Stattdessen war Strom immer verfügbar, die Preise sind stabil, mit 37,2% Anteil historischer Tiefstand foss. Brennstoffe & mit 62,7% ein Rekordanteil von PV & Wind😊

Air pollution has dropped significantly in #Paris in the last 15 years. Mayor @annehidalgo.bsky.social’s leadership has traded car space for green space, safe bike space, kid space.. and traded pollution for people.

Good trade.

Prolonged droughts shrink rivers and springs, the lifelines of flowing streams. Here, a once-roaring waterfall has withered to a fragile trickle—a fading echo of its past. 🌿💧 #ClimateCrisis #droughts

2. As a result, we're getting both more dangerous #droughts and floods simultaneously.

The #climate/water paradox: As temperatures rise, more #water evaporates into the atmosphere & more precipitation occurs. But land areas are getting drier not wetter. Why? Because more water evaporates from soils. The rain that falls is in intense events in fewer regions, leading to worse #floods 👉

Back home after an intense #AGU24. I reconnected with friends, met young scientists, attended great talks, and presented an eLightning poster. I also visited the National Gallery of Art and had a private session to see and inspect eight Ansel Adams works—what an amazing week!
