New Zealand’s glaciers have shrunk by 29% since 2000 – when will you admit global warming is here?
The ZB Troll Rednecks scream global warming is a socialist hoax, looks like the joke is on them…
New Zealand’s glaciers have shrunk by 29% since 2000
A New Zealand glacier expert sounding the alarm on climate change feels like she is yelling into the void as yet another study shows our glaciers are rapidly shrinking.
The grim news – published in scientific journal Nature today – showed glaciers were retreating world-wide at an increasing pace, with New Zealand’s ranking third highest in percentage of glacial mass loss since the start of the century.
Researchers analysing glacier data sets from across the globe between 2000 and 2023 found the speed of retreat increased in the past 10 years compared to the decade prior.
Since 2000, New Zealand’s glaciers had shrunk by 29%, while glaciers in Central Europe had diminished by as much 39% and in the Middle East by 35%.
…I simply don’t believe voters appreciate how much danger we are now in and that with every passing year this only gets worse and worse…
Hottest January on record mystifies climate scientists
A run of record-breaking global temperatures has continued, even with a La Niñaweather pattern cooling the tropical Pacific.
The Copernicus Climate Change Service said last month was the warmest January on record, with surface – air temperatures 1.75C above preindustrial levels.
…record breaking heat DESPITE La Niña.
I don’t think people appreciate what comes next.
Almost 600 000 workers couldn’t go to work in California in January thanks to fires, the highest level ever where climate change has impacted the physical mechanics of employment.
Capitalism will start becoming increasingly dysfunctional.
What the LA Fires really tell us is that despite being the richest Americans, they couldn’t protect themselves and their privilege from climate change.
When the homes of the Movie stars burn down, shit just got real.
Things start shutting down now, like economies, like biospheres, like democracy.
The speed of change will demand a level of adaptation we are not ready for.
I think a new radical backlash will occur as the climate keeps collapsing.
Preach Utah, Preach!
It’s time to start drawing up lists.

People dont give a fuck because they just hope its the grand kids and not them that suffers .
There ain’t no climate change deniers anymore. If there are they’re lying. Or simply not paying attention. Even causality seems not that controversial. The battle ground is now what to do about it – if indeed we truly comprehend how it’ll all pan out, locally and globally. Prevention, adaptation or mitigation?
