graphic - A stylized depiction of long-term evolutionary patterns of transformative anthroecological change, highlighting major regime shifts in sociocultural niche construction, cultural, ecological and material inheritances, societal scales, energy use per capita and niche construction intensity (anthrome area per capita). The linear appearance of this chart is for illustrative purposes only; patterns of change in sociocultural evolution are nonlinear, nondeterministic, and more appropriately depicted as a tree with interconnected branches—as a fabric of coevolution. (GJ, gigajoules; GMO, genetically modified organisms; AI, artificial intelligence.)

Magnitude 5.2 #earthquake in #Texas 15 minutes ago (2023-11-08Z10:27) almost certainly #anthropogenic origin. Signal on station TX.PECS (Pecos, TX, courtesy Texas Seismological Network) USGS focal mechanism consistent with subsidence?

🤦‍♀️ Trump's gullibles must be footing the bills here.

' is suing a former MI6 officer & intel consultancy he founded, high court records in Eng show.

TFG, who is mired in lawsuits in his own country, is bringing a data protection claim against Orbis Business Intelligence & founder Christopher Steele, who previously ran the secret intel service’s Russia desk.

A 2-day hearing for the legal action is set to start on 16 Oct"

A lot of points and I don't disagree. #RonDeathSentence is clearly a fascist. I would not be able to say which trait he hasn't already showed (apart from mass killings.) He's already deporting people, though.

#GlobalWarming is the key, but too huge here.
I've discussed it many times.
Bottom line: NOTHING will stop global warming anymore.
The amount of #anthropogenic #CO2 that is in the atmosphere right now is sufficient that there will be NO (periodically occurring)..

company after announces a load of excuses as to why the UK can't go all-electric by 2030… all while they continue to benefit from massive given them by the UK government at the expense of the country's citizens, who are paying increasinlyg high prices for fuel.

The same oil company executives who knew that climate change was taking place decades ago, buried the evidence, and have plowed trillions into propping up pro-pollution governments around the world.

The same oil company executives who argue that customers should have a choice while millions of people around the world suffer at the hand of .

Our entire team are furious. Help us get the word out and debunk this kind of nonsense while building a more equitable, sustainable future for EVERYONE.

#Klimakatastrophe #Klimakrise #Artensterben

Tausende Pinguinküken tot

Der Rückgang des antarktischen Meereises hat verheerende Auswirkungen auf die Bestände der Kaiserpinguine. Die diesjährige Brutsaison ist eine Katastrophe, in ganzen Kolonien ist der Nachwuchs erfroren oder ertrunken.
Die Aussichten für die ganze Art sind sehr schlecht, Pinguine sind auf Meereis angewiesen.

Das Abschmelzen des Eises hat enorme Ausmaße angenommen, schneller und stärker als erwartet.

@lydiaschoch @ThankYouForTheFish

A new age of mass extictinction-level events (#ELEs) has begun. 😞

I think, a week or so thousands of #Magellanic penguins froze to death on their migration in the South Atlantic. They dis not have enough fat, as they could not find enough fish.
Overfishing? IDK*

Both causes are #anthropogenic.

#ClimateCatastrophe
#ClimateEmergency
#ClimateCrisis

This is #NoClimateChange anymore.

Some changes happen even while we are watching.
