Intolerable drought in Hungary: Even drought-tolerant grasses are dying – what does the future hold?

Even Hungary’s most drought-resistant native grasses are failing to survive in the face of increasingly extreme dry spells, according to alarming new research by the HUN-REN Centre for Ecological Research

[P] Hiverarchians have ruined the concept of summer for me. I mean, aside from owning absolute and indefatigable responsibility for the collapse of the climate, for mass extinctions for, micropoastics, capitalism, war, and worse? There's just this constant, underlying parasitism. Privately owned vehicles, music devices played at full blast no matter how dogs whine, petrol-/gas-fuelled lawn destruction... Gross.

As oceans heat up, coastal sharks are adjusting their calendars. Instead of swimming south in early fall, many are now sticking around longer due to global warming.

Researchers at Stony Brook University tracked this trend by following six shark species along the U.S. East Coast. They used acoustic tags and detection models to uncover how ocean warming delays the sharks’ southern migrations by up to 29 days

The European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control (ECDC) has issued an urgent warning to beachgoers across Europe as Vibrio bacteria, known to cause severe infections, are increasingly detected in coastal waters, including the North Sea and enclosed bathing sites. The surge is linked to climate change, which is creating warmer, brackish conditions ideal for the bacteria’s growth

Greek City Times · Health Alert: Rising Sea Bacteria Threatens European Beachgoers, ECDC WarnsBy Bill Giannopoulos

While health crises like Covid-19 caused acute, time-bound disruptions, green swans pose perpetual threats with irreversible tipping points. For example, coastal flooding could permanently displace millions, unlike pandemic recovery cycles. Traditional risk assessment models that extrapolate from historical trends are insufficient for fully appreciating the systemic risks posed by the climate crisis

@vfrmedia Why would any Green Party want to "reassure" motorists? Internal combustion & diesel powered road vehicles put vast amounts of #CO2 in the atmosphere, & contribute to air #pollution as well. People have got to drive less & use public transport more - which is why public transport needs to be much cheaper & more accessible. If you insist on driving, drive an EV - alternatively, ride a bike.

La race supérieure est capable de vider les océans de tout ce qu'ils contiennent, ou d'envoyer une armada pour la guerre … Mais pas assez intelligent pour s'unir contre un fléau écologique.

C'est loin, pratique à oublier … Mais c'est un boomerang ! Car ces tonnes de plastique se retrouvent déjà dans nos assiettes.

Depuis 50 ans le capitalisme est en guerre contre des peuples qui ne combattaient pas. L'enjeu étant la vie, il faut que ça cesse, non ? 🤔 🙏
