The coming #ElNiño could be the strongest in over a century.
Warming water in part of the #PacificOcean is raising the odds for the biggest El Niño on record. The #weather pattern could fully form by July.
It could lead to record high global #temperatures & #food shortages, & shift patterns of #droughts, #floods, humidity & #SeaIce across the planet.

AMBLER, Alaska (AP) — Ice blocks drift past Tristen Pattee's boat as he scans the banks of Northwest Alaska's Kobuk River for caribou. His great uncle Ernest steadies a rifle on his lap. It's the last day of September, and by every measure of history and memory, thousands should have crossed by now. But the tundra is empty, save for the mountains looming on the horizon - the Gates of the Arctic National Park.

Event With Links to Oil Industry Teaches Judges "Healthy Skepticism" of Climate Science
As congressional Republicans accuse climate scholars and lawyers of colluding to influence the judiciary, a symposium hosted by a center funded by the fossil fuel industry educates judges about free-market views of climate science.Peter.DiCampo@propublica.org (ProPublica)
Shifting baseline syndrome ( #SBS ) is what happens when we forget how vibrant the natural world used to be. Each generation grows up with a more depleted environment and calls it “normal,” simply because it’s all they’ve ever known.
Researchers warn that this shift lowers our expectations, increases our tolerance for decline, and reduces our urgency to protect what’s left.

“No modern American city has ever run out of water. But chances are rising that Corpus Christi, Texas, could be the first. Absent a biblical rainfall event, its reservoirs are on track to completely dry up by next year.”
But more than half of the water consumption in Corpus Christi goes to petrochemical industrial plants. Let’s see if people are willing to throttle down the water supply to machines before they do to humans.

A massive drought coupled with political mismanagement might fully deplete water in a major city: neither in West Asia nor Africa, but in the United States. The city of Corpus Christi, Texas could soon completely out of water in the next year.Climate News Now (Mastodon)
