QUOTE: "Another factor is a torrent of warm water called the Loop Current, which runs through the Gulf of Mexico. It once flowed close to the shore before sliding south into the Gulf, a shift that lowered water temperatures and deprived storms of wind-churning energy. "The fact that the Gulf’s surface temperature is warming back up today due to climate change is worrying to those who study ancient hurricanes. “What these records clearly show is that the climate system, outside of human interference, is already able to adjust itself in ways that give us activity like we haven’t seen in the last century or so,” Donnelly said. “The big question is, now that we are actually turning the knobs of climate ourselves, what’s the likely outcome?” ... " UNQUOTE IF YOU GO TO co2.earth, you see that the Annual CO2 increase of about one percent can be 500, 600 or 950 times the Historical Rate of 0.005 PPM. But the Media never reports it. We are like a person who raises his thermostat to 100 Degrees F and then wonders why is house or Apartment is so hot. When I posted that last sentence on Yahoo News, it was rejected for violating Yahoo's "Community Guidelines".

❔ Why is it necessary to keep talking about climate and highlight the real situation?  ⏩ Because there is a solution to the problem, but there is very little time left to implement it. Scientists of the Creative Society project have been studying the climate issue since 1996, so they not only understand the reasons for its change but also know the way out. ⏩ Here is what can already be implemented today to prevent devastating disasters and their consequences: 1️⃣ Volcanic degassing technology. 2️⃣ Earthquake prevention technology. 3️⃣ Facility that can extract and purify water from the air to revive the dying ocean. 4️⃣ A unified international scientific center for consolidating the efforts of the best minds in the world. 5️⃣ New economic model that gives us stability and comfort will free up resources to solve the climate collapse. *️⃣ All this is simply impossible to do in a world where there are numerous military conflicts, where borders are closed, and where there is constant competition between countries. The best scientists work in secret research centers, data is often hidden and the true causes of climate change are not voiced at all. So far, the official version of the climate crisis is the increase in the anthropogenic CO2! ⏩ It is simply necessary for people to start actively spreading information about the true causes of climate change and making this the most urgent problem in the world so that we can begin to solve it! ❕❕ Start speaking up, be part of the solution! 📍 #Question #answers #co2 #anthropogenic #solution #climatechange #vulcan #earthquake #hurricane #technology #collapse #economy

Researchers have uncovered a surprising phenomenon in Antarctica: the massive Ross Ice Shelf, roughly the size of France, lurches forward several centimetres once or twice a day. This movement is triggered by the Whillans Ice Stream, a fast-flowing river of ice that occasionally gets stuck and then surges ahead. Sudden Shifts, Not Gradual Flow Unlike most glaciers that creep at a glacial pace, the Whillans Ice Stream exhibits a stop-and-go motion. A lack of water lubrication beneath the stream may be causing it to intermittently stick, then release built-up pressure in sudden bursts.These jolts, similar to tremors along earthquake faults, push against the Ross Ice Shelf. Icequakes and Fractures: A Potential Threat While the daily jumps aren't directly linked to human-caused warming, they could contribute to the weakening of the Ross Ice Shelf. Ice shelves act as barriers, slowing the flow of glaciers and ice streams into the ocean. If the Ross Ice Shelf weakens and breaks apart, it could accelerate ice melt rates and sea level rise. ttps://https://lnkd.in/d2bGe-6v

🌍 Urgent Climate Alert: The Rapid Escalation of Natural Disasters 🌍 Our planet is at a tipping point!

The scientists monitoring the #greenland #ice cap have bad news for us. Greenland is losing 20% more ice than previously thought, with troubling new implications for #ocean currents and #weather patterns around the world. If fully melted, the Greenland ice sheet would raise global sea levels by about 7.4 metres. https://lnkd.in/ecZWXPAp Another alarming news coming from the Himalayan region, so called "third pole". Large #snowfall deficit have been confirmed by the India Meteorological Department (IMD) which may have consequences for #watersecurity for downstream communities. https://lnkd.in/ekPK-mYC The World Meteorological Organization (WMO) is making the #cryosphere one of its highest priorities endorsed by the #WMO Congress. It reflects the growing concerns over the rapid changes due to #climatechange and consequent impacts on sea ice, glaciers, ice sheets, permafrost, and snow. These changes are affecting #sealevelrise, water-related hazards, water security, economies, and ecosystems globally. The WMO is calling for more coordinated observations and predictions, improved data exchange, enhanced research, and better services related to the cryosphere. The irreversible changes in the global cryosphere are expected to significantly affect adaptation strategies and access to water resources for over a billion people. The WMO's Strategic Plan for 2024-2027 outlines several priorities and goals, focusing on enhanced preparedness, climate-smart decision-making, and improved socioeconomic value of weather, climate, hydrological, and environmental services. This plan aims to support nations, particularly the most vulnerable, in becoming more resilient to the socioeconomic consequences of extreme weather and climate events.

【Glacial Cover Assessment from 1993 to 2021 Using Normalized Difference Snow Index with Landsat Imagery in the Colorado Front Range, USA】 Full article: https://lnkd.in/ghJD4WwQ (Authored by Jiaqi Zhang, from University of Colorado Boulder, USA.) The glaciers are shrinking at a rapid rate in response to the global climate change, and thus it is extremely important to document the changes in glacier cover. This study discusses the feasibility of tracking glacial area via #Landsat_satellites, and investigates changes in the area for a group of glaciers in the Colorado Front Range using the Normalized Difference Snow Index (#NDSI) with Landsat imagery from 1993 to 2021. #Cirque_Glaciers #Global_Warming

The video depicting a tsunami wave reaching up to 1700 feet is indeed astonishing and serves as a stark reminder of the immense power of natural forces. Reflecting on the Greenland and Antarctic ice sheets, it's crucial to recognize their significance in regulating global climate patterns and sea levels.As these ice sheets melt due to climate change, the impacts are far-reaching, affecting coastal erosion, freshwater resources, infrastructure, and flooding patterns worldwide. It's a sobering reminder that even regions distant from the polar ice caps are not immune to the consequences of their loss. These observations underscore the urgent need for collective action to mitigate climate change and protect our planet's delicate balance.

The summer of 1816, known as the "Year Without a Summer," contrasts starkly with today's climate crisis. Caused by the massive eruption of Mount Tambora in 1815, global temperatures plummeted by 3°C, leading to widespread drought, famine, and severe weather disruptions. In the UK, July 1816 was the coldest on record, with frequent storms and crop failures. Europe faced food riots, and the US saw mass migration due to crop failures. In China, disrupted monsoons led to a three-year famine. Today, climate change brings a range of impacts, including both global warming and extreme weather variations, disrupting the usual balance of nature. #YearWithoutASummer #MountTambora #VolcanicEruption #ClimateCrisis #GlobalCooling #GlobalWarming #ClimateChange #HistoricalWeather #ClimateImpact https://lnkd.in/euNBM4pH
