A brand-new report just found that billionaires are spewing as much carbon in 90 minutes as the average person emits in a lifetime. This is hideous. This is grotesque. This is a crime against humanity. If this does not shock you to your core, what will? What will? 🧵 (1/12)

It took #Beryl 42 hours to go from a tropical depression to a major hurricane, on June 30th. This has been done 6 other times in Atlantic hurricane history. And the EARLIEST date this was achieved before was ... September 1. SEPTEMBER!

Breaking News! Well humanity, we did it, even if just for one day. Yesterday, Nov. 18, was the first time in recorded history that the global 2m surface temperature breached 2.0°C above the 1850-1900 IPCC baseline. The long-term average remains below 1.5°C. But not for long.

Antarctic sea ice departures from normal. The red is the area that has fallen below the normal. The ice missing is the size of Argentina. I sniped the end of Andrew's great animation to make it easier to analyze.

Antarctic sea ice anomalies during the austral winter to date. Coloured areas highlight differing ice concentration in 2023, when compared with 1991 to 2020.

Not sure who needs to see this, but the 1930s were MUCH cooler than the 2020s globally. In fact, the 1930s were cooler than the 1940s, 1950s, 1960s, 1970s, 1980s, 1990s, 2000s, 2010s, and 2020s. Hope that helps.

Our favorite planet has now seen 20 days in a row breaking the modern-day record high-temperature of 16.924°C (62.46°F) set on July 24, 2022. This global heatwave is likely the hottest 20-day stretch in the last 100,000+ years.

Wow! Wow! Wow! North Atlantic sea surface temperature anomalies are going vertical again. And yes, I needed to extend the y-axis. Yesterday's temperature of 24.49°C (76.08°F) was 4.2σ above the 1991-2020 mean. The previous high for July 17 was 23.71°C (74.68°F) in 2020.

Having a thread about a stone age girl going viral and having a thread about the fashion industry going viral makes me want to do a thread connecting both of these subjects to talk about one of my favorite prehistoric articles of clothing: the Lendbreen Tunic.

”The famous Italian diver Enzo Maiorca dove into the sea of ​​Syracuse and was talking to his daughter Rossana who was aboard the boat. Ready to go in, he felt something slightly hit his back. He turned and saw a dolphin. Then he realized that the dolphin did not want to play…
