The tide seems to be finally turning on global coal, as both China and India are now adding enough clean energy to reduce their coal generation: www.carbonbrief.org/...
Where do our CO2 emissions come from, and where do they end up?
I made this little summary - and you can see why reducing the use of fossil fuels remains the most important tool we have for slowing climate change:
The map shows the spatial pattern of median conditions for the selected month, while the lower panel tracks how the season may evolve at your chosen location.
Perennially relevant! Thanks for sharing
How old is the sea ice in the Arctic, and why does that matter?
We’ve just released a new sea-ice age dataset covering 1991–2024. It helps researchers track the decline of older, thicker ice & improve climate studies, model evaluation & safe traffic in the region. @met.no

Back in 2012 we did a figure comparing historical emissions to previous generations of emission scenarios. rdcu.be/brDGx
Surprisingly, the figure is still doing the rounds. We update it every year, with many interesting changes primarily due to revisions in land-use change emissions.

Scientists and local stakeholders in Kerala, India recently came together to talk sea-level rise, shoreline change, algal blooms and how to adapt a coast under pressure.
Clear needs. Strong local voices. Useful science.
