Interesting Analysis of the US conundrum in Iran by Prof. Jiang, who asks, “Can America stop this war. Can it negotiate a ceasefire. Can it withdraw. Can it find a way out. The answer — when you look at it carefully — is deeply unsettling.”
Eliot Jacobson has consistently warned of the heating of the ocean, land and atmosphere. He says we can compute the rate of ocean heating terms of the unit of measurement “Hiroshimas per Second.” By any measure, the oceans are getting hotter fast, with all the attending doom-laden consequences.
Disruptions in the Arctic lead directly to disruptions at our latitudes, as we are seeing now. The Arctic sea ice maximum this year effectively tied for the lowest ever on record, with major implications for polar ecosystems and global warming.
Dept. of Pass The Kleenex: It’s not your imagination—- Your red eyes and runny nose doesn’t deceive you — seasonal allergies are getting worse, a miserable reality for nearly one in three US adults and one in four children. This is the worst allergy season ever. Again. Just like last year.

Record-breaking heat waves grab the headlines each summer because they cause tens of thousands of deaths. A new report finds that climate change is projected to increase these premature deaths and that more than 90 percent of them are slated to occur in low- and middle-income countries.
