What’s happening with El Niño? // Special Report: Climate Change // UCI Climate change may be shifting and lengthening an ocean temperature phenomenon that can cause rainy winters in California

Took notice of a story shared on my networks today about if and how El Nino’s behaviour [winds, currents over Pacific waters affecting global climate] is/has changed due to climate change. Interested in UCI results from studying this... #climatechange

The oceanic whitetip sharks of Cat Island - Oceanographic In the Caribbean, Rick Miskiv dives with Oceanic whitetip sharks off Cat Island.

Surfing the 🤿 withdrawal... Oceangraphic magazine just shared shorturl.at/OOSfq. I'm just out of an online rabbit hole on #scuba #diving and #sharks 🦈: appreciating the emotive descriptions of OceanicWhitetip encounters. Bonus: the photos relieve emerging anxiety about my new 'yumyum?' white RK3s 😅

The Climate Games: There are some records we don't want to break
In sports, hard work secures records and victory. Atlethes are all about pushing the limits of what humans can achieve, and witnessing the birth of new world records. These are the kinds of records that make us proud – but there are some records that aren’t cause for celebration. Record temperature highs, nature loss and melting ice all signal a threat to our very survival. But if we work together, we can help inspire leaders and people around the world to take the critical action needed to stabilise the climate and reverse nature loss.

In sport, hard work secures records and victory. But beyond glory, other records are breaking our planet.

Turn up the sound and listen closely. Extreme weather, floods, fires – are escalating. Leaders must take action. RT if you want to see them. #ChangeClimateChange #WWF
