🦈🐳🦑🐠🐟🐡🐬🦑🪸🦐

I'm not saying everybody needs to become a vegan/vegetarian right now, that is up to each individual, but we should avoid the worst of the worst.

That is, if we want to at least keep a few of the giants of the seas alive.

🌊 We must stop eating wild ocean animals, including open‑pen "farmed" saltwater fish such as salmon.

If you’re not urgently dependent on seafood for survival, simply switch to other options such as land / closed‑system aquaculture or plant based solutions.

A More Troubling Picture of Sea Level Rise Is Coming into View.

Scientists have uncovered a “blind spot” in the research on rising seas, revealing that tens of millions of people thought safe from coastal flooding are at risk of inundation. Across much of the world, sea levels are higher than previously assumed and land is sinking faster. #ClimateChange #ClimateCrisis #GlobalWarming

i try to emphasize good news

and if i can't do that i try to emphasize anger over sadness

but there's nothing i can do about this bit of news except be depressed:

"Mass drowning of chicks puts emperor #penguins at risk of #extinction"

theguardian.com/environment/20…

essentially, #globalWarming, the #climateCrisis, is breaking up the ice the #emperorPenguin depends upon to raise its young, and this is resulting in mass killings of their young now

Most #volcanoes warm the #atmosphere with SO2

But the 2022 Hunga #Tonga eruption was unique

Deep enough for sea water to penetrate, but shallow enough for the explosion to push water into the *mesosphere* 🤯

The water penetration removed most of the SO2, and the water is also still up there in the #stratosphere, *cooling* us

Meaning:

#GlobalWarming should be even worse than it already is, and could rebound to such as the high water veil dissipates

#ClimateCrisis


Lichens indicate airquality and climateconditions. I found the #species below in #Jungfernheide #forest #Berlin. While #Parmelia #sulcata requires light, but is flexible, #Hypotrachyna #afrorevoluta needs warm, nitrogen-poor #environments and clean air. The latter is rareer in #Germany, but spreading eastward based on #globalwarming. D. Masson (2004) found it on #treetrunks and #branches.

#Freshwater #lakes,like #Flughafensee #Berlin, play a complex #role in #globalwarming. Their #sediments are important #carbonsinks. However, they also release #CO2/#methane through microorganism activities. Furthermore, #lakeswarmup faster than surrounding air. L. Huang et al.(2024) address this and predict #shifts in #aquaticspecies #distributions and rearrangements of #freshwaterhabitats.
