No that will happen in a century. What Imm saying is it will be even worse in a couple hundred years.

That’s not disproving what the article said. Heating can dominate while the impacts of white roofs are still beneficial.

For one, the sun is far more active in summer than winter, especially further up north.

I hate to be this sort of guy. But if you had read the article it mentions a study that found exactly the opposite of what you claim.

Researchers have also found that even in most cold North American climates, the energy savings from cool roofs during warmer months outweigh any added heating costs in the winter.

I did a deep dive into this. The worst is gonna be in a couple hundred years. Even if we magically stop emitting CO2. large ice masses take a long time to adapt to new temperatures

MAGA are gonna make a conspiracy that climate change is invented by insurance corpos to gain money.

(Watch them have the right instict that the common person is getting swimdled and then somehow end up blaming exactly the wrong things)

Arctic rivers are sending a warning. Climate change is changing the type of nitrogen they carry. This shift matters because marine life depends on a specific form of nitrogen to survive.

A new study led by Bridger J. Ruyle atNYU Tandon reveals what’s going wrong. His team tracked the six largest Arctic rivers for 20 years. What they found: these rivers now deliver much less of the usable, inorganic nitrogen. Instead, they carry more of the harder-to-use, organic kind.

As corporate interest in ocean carbon removal grows, researchers from Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution are testing the safety and effectiveness of one such technique in the Gulf of Maine.

bakers, builders, hot tub lobbyists, and chemical companies are trying to save it.

Unlikely coalition indeed!

Ah, me a pillar of my insanity.

This is generally a good article, but unfortunately downplays the locals agency and gives a bit of “humanitarian saviour” vibes.

And for the USians joining us, “States” here means “countries”. Not regional governments like “States” in the US sense.

The meat industry may have enlisted environmental groups to persuade people to “feel better” about eating beef, despite the sector’s ballooning emissions of climate-heating pollution, according to a public relations strategy document.

The plan, created in 2021 by MHP Group, a London-based communications agency, was addressed to the the Global Roundtable for Sustainable Beef, an umbrella organization comprised of beef-related companies such as restaurant chain McDonald’s and Brazil-based JBS — the world’s largest meat-packer. Other members include powerful American meat lobbies such as the Meat Institute, and nonprofits the Nature Conservancy and the World Wildlife Fund.

The proposal aimed in part at blunting growing public enthusiasm for “opting out of eating beef as alternative options become tastier, cheaper and more accessible,” in favor of seeing “beef [as] a natural and nutritious source of iron and protein” that “is enjoyed by millions.”

MHP Group’s strategy identified policymakers, regulators, investors, and beef industry stakeholders as its primary audiences. Its goals included promoting the Roundtable as “power[ing] progress in sustainable beef” as well as “champion[ing] best practices,” and assuring people that there was “growing momentum in the beef industry to protect and nurture the earth’s natural resources.”

The plan also targeted consumers who “feel ‘guilty’ about eating beef due to environmental and/or health reasons.” Here, the communications goal was “to help them feel better about eating beef (if not every day, then at least occasionally), and to be more aware of the ways in which the industry is protecting the planet and making progress.”

TOKYO: Seventeen heat records were broken in Japan on Monday (Aug 4), the weather agency said, after the country sweltered through its hottest ever June and July.

Heatwaves are becoming more intense and frequent worldwide because of human-caused climate change, scientists say, and Japan is no exception.

The city of Komatsu, in the central region of Ishikawa, saw a new record of 40.3 degrees Celsius on Monday, the Japan Meteorological Agency (JMA) said

Literally 1984.
