Mixing Is the Heartbeat of Deep Lakes. At Crater Lake, It’s Slowing Down. | Quanta Magazine The physics of mixing water layers — an interplay of wind, climate and more — makes lakes work. When it stops, impacts can ripple across an ecosystem.

Mixing is a fundamental process that functions like a heartbeat for lakes. But at iconic lakes around the world, climate change is slowing or even stopping that heartbeat - causing profound impacts to these very special ecosystems. @quantamagazine.bsky.social

In the US, Western rivers may be allies in the fight against climate change For decades, scientists have generally thought that rivers emit more carbon dioxide, a greenhouse gas, than they take in. But a new analysis of every river network in the contiguous United States — in...

Rivers in dry landscapes are absorbing more CO2 than we thought, according to a new @science.org paper led by Cary’s Taylor Maavara. The team found that, under certain conditions, rivers can even act as carbon sinks. www.caryinstitute.org/news-insight...

Trump and Republicans Join Big Oil’s All-Out Push to Shut Down Climate Liability Efforts - Inside Climate News Republican attorneys general, GOP lawmakers, industry groups and the president himself are all maneuvering to foreclose the ability of cities and states to hold the fossil fuel industry liable for dam...

Attribution science allows us to link climate impacts to fossil fuel companies. In response, the industry and Republicans are trying to stop climate liability laws and lawsuits, and seek legal immunity like gun manufacturers got two decades ago. You don't do that unless you're guilty.

Carbon offsets fail to cut global heating due to ‘intractable’ systemic problems, study says Analysis of 25 years of evidence shows most schemes are poor quality and fail to lower emissions

News that shocks no one: Carbon offsets do nothing for climate.

I have been trying to get this published as an op-ed, but I am going to post it here since I think it is timely in light of the "consent" extortion events.
