Recent reports and data analyses have highlighted the accelerated impact of climate change across the globe, with significant temperature anomalies and extreme weather events being recorded. Svalbard, Norway, is experiencing these effects at an accelerated rate, while Hong Kong recorded its highest March temperature in 140 years at 31.5C (88.7F). Scientists have confirmed that the last two centuries of global capitalism have drastically altered biodiversity and biogeographical patterns, contributing to a rapid mass extinction. Data from the Copernicus ECMWF ERA5 reanalysis indicates warming temperatures across both hemispheres, with the last month being the warmest February on record. The Financial Times reported that the world is warming at a pace unexpected by scientists, with more than 90% of the world's oceans suffering from heatwave conditions in 2023. Additionally, the Great Barrier Reef is facing its 5th coral die-off in 8 years, further evidencing the severe impacts of climate change. The Extinction Economy is projected to set up 3.5/4°C of global warming by 2050- 2150, highlighting the urgency of addressing climate change.
Last year, ocean temperatures remained abnormally high—and have continued to climb in 2024. “It’s like the whole climate just fast-forwarded by 50 or 100 years. That’s how strange this looks,” a researcher said. https://t.co/Tex2MwRyh2
The #GreatBarrierReef is experiencing its 5th coral die-off in 8 years. It’s terrible.https://t.co/DU9arh41vo But it’s really lovely to hear instead from reef Authorities about…. Ryan, and his twinkle. https://t.co/LkQWx2rJo5

"The world is now warming at a pace that scientists did not expect" is not accurate. Scientists were testifying before Congress and projecting "dramatic impacts" on the climate "in 30 or 40 years" 33 years ago. They were exactly right. https://t.co/D2qFQjojl5

SCIENCE: The Financial Times reports that the world is 'now warming at a pace that scientists did not expect and, alarmingly, do not fully understand' and that in 2023 'more than 90% of the world’s oceans suffered heatwave conditions, glaciers lost the most ice on record and the…

The Extinction Economy is wiping out 40- 70% of Earth's species this century as it annihilates biodiversity, destroys habitats, wrecks ecosystems, and sets up 3.5/4°C of global warming by 2050- 2150. 🧵

In the next 100 years our children will be the first people ever to experience that kind of climate.' * 2012 3.5/4°C by 2050- 2150 https://t.co/VV0txioa3x https://t.co/Br154uQCpW

Hong Kong sweats through highest temperature it’s ever recorded in March following hottest summer on record last year. Its records go back to 1884. https://t.co/BoFqpqzFke
The maximum temperature measured at the Hong Kong Observatory was 31.5C (88.7F) — the highest reported during the month of March since records began in 1884 https://t.co/t8dezVuVkG

Most of the #Arctic is experiencing warming temperatures over the last four decades in March. This is largest in the Barents Sea region and corresponds to losses of sea ice cover (turbulent fluxes). [Data from @CopernicusECMWF ERA5. For more info: https://t.co/n6POIdyXpB] https://t.co/A36EDErQQ2
