Over 150 wildfires are burning in Algeria 🇩🇿, but the country has received little international news coverage or aid compared to European countries on the other side of the Mediterranean.

Mountain glaciers are losing mass increasingly fast world-wide over the past 75 years in response to #globalwarming. This and permafrost thawing can destabilize mountain sides and cause glacial collapse and flash floods.

«…This collapse could be a result of global heating. “It’s not that much of a stretch to think, yes, we’re seeing one terrible ramification of human-caused climate change,” he says.…»

".…could be.…" and ".…not that much of a stretch.…"??? Could we even possibly make this accusation any more feebly?

Was anyone predicting glaciers would melt before climate change? They were formerly the kind of long-term fixed thing no one expected to change all of a sudden. Remember the phrase "moving at a glacial pace"?? That didn't arise because glaciers were prone to visible change in a short time.

But then climate scientists did their job and carefully worked out a lot of detailed consequences of physics, predicting that glaciers would be melting more and more everywhere, and that floods and mud slides and ultimately drought would be the next thing we'd see.

It doesn't take a complex analysis to attribute this to climate change. It takes a conspiracy of denialists, and the people that work for them, to suppress credence about the science if you want to tamp down anything so painfully obvious.

This is not a case where something happened and people said "what a surprise. we'll have to figure out the cause", like when a building burns down that no one expected to. This is a building that had a blaze burning in the front yard already and someone was positioning a large fan to assure the flames went toward the building in a known-to-be-dangerous way and then the building burned down and people are saying "hmm, we'll have to see what the cause might have been".

We need to stop reporting these events in isolation and report them as part of a coherent whole. Climate scientists' "a priori" predictions need their due. Predictions were copiously made in advance that the climate dice are not random but loaded, that bad things were about to happen. This is not a time for an "a posteriori" analysis where we pretend we thought the dice were fair and that sometimes bad things just happen randomly.

The US is enduring one of its worst wildfire seasons in years, with heat waves and drought fueling blazes from coast to coast.

Over 2.3 million acres have burned across nearly 29,000 fires this year, while fires in Washington have destroyed hundreds of structures and forced more than 60,000 people from their homes.

Scientists say climate change is driving hotter, drier conditions that make fires burn faster and farther.

🌪️ A rare, powerful tornado tore through Pomas in southern France overnight — 39 injured, 2 critical, ~300 homes damaged. 1,400 households remain without power.

Tornadoes in France are historically rare.

Climate scientists have long warned that a warming atmosphere holds more moisture and energy, fueling more frequent and intense severe weather events — even in places not known for tornadoes.

Empty #NorthSea oil fields could store enough #green #hydrogen to power the country for 7 years


The depleted oil and gas fields could be refilled, this time with hydrogen made from our surplus #wind & #solar power

Suitable depleted North Sea fields could provide 3,659 terawatt-hours of hydrogen storage capacity, equivalent to more than 7 years of projected UK electricity demand in 2040. Using them could also take conventional gas power stations off the rid altogether by 2040.

#GreenHydrogen production is, in effect, a way of bottling #renewable #energy. When the wind blows harder than we need, that surplus electricity is used to make hydrogen. When the wind drops, stored hydrogen can be turned back into electricity in a power station – doing the job gas does today, but without the emissions or the imports.

Europe's devastating wildfires unveil deadly new threat - buried bombs from WWI & #WWII


Devastating #wildfires that have ravaged #Europe over summer have been unveiling a potentially deadly new threat - unexploded ordnance from WWI & WWII

#Fires have burned through huge areas of land in western Europe in recent months as the continent has battled scorching #temperatures & #droughts, and #firefighters have faced the additional threat of #exploding shells.

BEARLY LIVABLE...

Extreme heat continues to grip the globe.

The current North American heat wave has killed at least 70 people since it began.

The UK just recorded its hottest day of the year at 38.1°C in west London — its 5th heatwave of 2026 — while over 135 million people across Europe face temps above 35°C.

Wildfires are burning in the UK, Greece & beyond.

This isn't just summer — it's climate change.

Extreme heat is gripping much of the planet at once. Central Europe and the Balkans are baking above 40°C (104F), Southwest US cities like Las Vegas and El Centro are hitting record highs, and a fourth major heat dome is building over Iberia into August.

Scientists say climate change isn't causing these heat domes directly, but it's making them hotter, longer, and more frequent.

Defend the defenders


Our planet’s vital defenses against #ClimateChange & #biodiversity loss are being stripped away in real-time. We see it in the smoke-filled forests of the Amazon in Brazil, the bleaching reefs of Raja Ampat in Indonesia

  • This is not a distant threat: it is the defining emergency of our present moment.

We demand world leaders move beyond empty promises and immediately recognise the legal territories and rights of Indigenous Peoples and local communities. Together we can build a way of life where nature and people thrive together.

Lake Mead is sitting at 1,040.85 ft as of Aug 3, 2026 — just 0.27 ft above its all-time record low set in July 2022.

That's 26.9% of capacity, down 13.3 ft over the past year. The Bureau of Reclamation's July 2026 study projects the lake could keep sliding toward 1,037 ft this fall. Boaters are being warned of newly exposed hazards as the water retreats.

The Colorado River basin's water crisis isn't easing up.
