Trees are are still standing but ghosts in a shell.

They take long to grow & don’t have time to adjust genetically to how fast climate changes or insects & soil microbes disappear.

Bark beetles have become a ‘pest’. No predator insects & birds. When trees dry out, they can’t protect themselves.

Map of Greenland showing 2-m air temperature anomalies in July 2025. Red shading is shown for warmer than average temperatures, and blue shading is shown colder than average temperatures. Anomalies are calculated relative to 1981-2010.

Last month observed above average temperatures across most of Greenland, with the largest departures occurring toward the center of the ice sheet.

Large reductions in tropical bird abundance attributable to heat extreme intensification - Nature Ecology & Evolution Climate change poses a growing threat to biodiversity, but disentangling its overall impact from other anthropogenic stressors is challenging. Here the authors use a data-driven climate attribution fr...

Heat and drought lays now devastation to tropical birds...

"the historical intensification of heat extremes has caused a 25–38% reduction in the level of abundance of tropical birds, which has accumulated from 1950 to 2020."

Given the ever-increasing stakes, costs and consequences, we don't do nearly enough to deter and prevent human-caused fire starts.

Wild pigs' flesh turning 'neon blue' in California: Authorities are sounding the alarm Dan Burton has trapped hundreds of wild pigs for clients of his wildlife control company in Salinas, but even he was startled when he cut one of them open and found blue meat inside.

"wild pigs with bright blue tissue... suggests the wild animals have been exposed to the anticoagulant rodenticide diphacinone, a popular poison used by farmers and agriculture companies to control the population of rats, mice, squirrels and other small animals"

•Treating “reproduce like rabbits” as a policy goal
•Believing infinite growth works on a finite planet
•Thinking forests are just “future parking lots”
•Assuming “finite” is a liberal conspiracy

Microplastics Are Infiltrating Your Brain. What Are The Effects? Tiny shards of plastic called microplastics have been detected accumulating in human brains, but there is not yet enough evidence to say whether this is doing us harm, experts have said.

They say the effects of microplastics in the brain are “hard to measure.”
Pretty sure we’ve got some early signs:
•Denying climate change while your yard is on fire
•Calling poisoned rivers “heritage water”
•Believing “if we can’t see it, it’s not pollution”

Lyle Lewis & @Race2Extinct Telling me to read Superabundance to learn the planet isn't finite is like telling me to read a book about old-growth conservation... written by loggers. The authors measure "abundance" by how cheap resources get for humans in the short term — not by the actual physical limits of ecosystems, soils, fisheries, aquifers, or the climate system. Economics can track prices, but it can't repeal physics or biology. The planet is still finite, whether or not the spreadsheet says otherwise. Robin T. & @RealRobinToupin • 18h You need to read this book: amazon.ca/ Superabundance... It shows the "finite planet" idea is a lie, and these two economists have the data to prove it.

Global sea-surface temperatures are continuing to be record hot compared to any pre-2023 year.

Over the last 3 years, the oceans have warmed on average by the equivalent of 870,000 Hiroshima bombs worth of heat per day.

Congrats to Americans for marginally increasing the net worth of Trump aligned billionaires!

Oh look, the poorest 10% of US households will lose an average of about $1,200 in resources per year, amounting to a 3.1% cut in their income, according to the analysis released Monday of the “One Big Beautiful Bill Act.”

Robert Reich Why Trump Is Partnering With Christian Nationalists | Robert Reich

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth shared a video of a Christian nationalist pastor who believes women shouldn't be allowed to vote.

Trump and his inner circle want to replace democracy with a MAGA theocracy that would strip away our freedoms.

ICE agents destroy the restaurant and steal food and supplies from Emiliano’s Mexican Restaurant in Pittsburg, PA while carrying out a raid.

These thugs think they are beyond the law.

Pay attention to the escalation of brazenness, the time to address it and stop it is now!

Yes Israel won't let "international journalists" into Gaza because that'd make their crimes more visible. But also because their crimes include…killing journalists! It's easier to dehumanize & smear Palestinian reporters in order to justify killing them, than a Western reporter.

Yeah, the kid needs to grow up, and put down the,hopium pipe.
