  Current El Nino, on top of human-caused climate change, could mean global avg temp could breach 2C of warming. While scientists have long braced for climate change, the growing severity of its impacts is shocking them.

  Be careful what you fish for. Resilience is a euphemism for “Buckle up, it’s getting rough out there. I hope we can make it.” Ironically, on average, investments in resilience lead to a decline in welfare of citizens. 🎁🔗 https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2026-07-24/why-resilience-has-become-the-defining-virtue-of-our-time?accessToken=eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiIsInR5cCI6IkpXVCJ9.eyJzb3VyY2UiOiJTdWJzY3JpYmVyR2lmdGVkQXJ0aWNsZSIsImlhdCI6MTc4NTA1NjQzNSwiZXhwIjoxNzg1NjYxMjM1LCJhcnRpY2xlSWQiOiJUSU83Wk1L...

  Scientists had warned us. Climate change doesn't just hurt nature, it also hurts capital. You can continue to deny it or ignore acting on it, only if you can afford to pay for the growing damages. 🎁🔗 https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2026-07-28/heat-pushes-rhine-toward-36-year-low-in-risk-to-energy-supplies?accessToken=eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiIsInR5cCI6IkpXVCJ9.eyJzb3VyY2UiOiJTdWJzY3JpYmVyR2lmdGVkQXJ0aWNsZSIsImlhdCI6MTc4NTM5Mjk3NSwiZXhwIjoxNzg1OTk3Nzc1LCJhcnRpY2xlSWQiOiJUSVZNMk9UOTZPU...

  Ok, sure. I'll believe it when I see it. China is a green tech behemoth. But it's not really a leader in climate diplomacy.

  "A climate monster is growing in the Pacific Ocean, perhaps the most fearsome El Niño since before scientists even began modeling them. It will give us at least a brief preview of a hotter and more chaotic world — a 2027 like we might’ve expected to see in 2035." https://www.nytimes.com/2026/05/06/opinion/el-nino-climate.html
