Taking a Break… from our social media presence on Twitter until further notice. ✌️

#ClimateChange shocks increased in 2022. Ocean heat and sea level rise at record levels. Antarctic sea ice hit a new low. Extreme glacier melt in Europe. #StateOfClimate report highlights the huge socio-economic cost of droughts, floods, and heatwaves.🔗bit.ly/stateofclimate…

The long-running cooling La Niña event only put a temporary brake on rising global temperatures in 2022. The past eight years have been the warmest on record. If El Niño develops, this will turn up the heat. Details in #StateofClimate report bit.ly/stateofclimate…

Global mean temperatures for the past eight years have been the highest on record despite a cooling #LaNiña for 3 straight years. This is the #StateOfClimate. 🔗bit.ly/stateofclimate…

These are the average temperatures of planets in our solar system: 🥵 Mercury 167°C 🥵 Venus 464°C 🌎 Earth 15°C 🥶 Mars -65°C 🥶 Jupiter -110°C 🥶 Saturn -140°C 🥶 Uranus -195°C 🥶 Neptune -200°C Our planet is like no other. Time to protect our only home. #EarthDay

This 🌎 #EarthDay2023, watch 🎥 #IPCC Chair Hoesung Lee & scientists behind our latest #ClimateReport, #ClimateChange 2023: Synthesis Report share their messages for the world. Read the report ➡️ bit.ly/SRYRpt23

Since the passage of the Inflation Reduction Act last summer, $52 billion of electric vehicle and battery manufacturing capacity has been announced in the US. about.bnef.com/blog/energy-tr…

The @SECGov has some changes in store — but is yet to announce a decision on what will be included in the revised climate rules. The #SEC is responding to investor trends, not partisan ideology. @TriplePundit @TinaMCasey #ESG triplepundit.com/story/2023/sec…

How do we tackle #climatechange? #IPCC’s Synthesis Report lays out solutions. “The greatest gains in well-being could come from prioritizing climate risk reduction for low-income & marginalised communities.” - @christrisos, #IPCC author ➡️ ipcc.ch/report/ar6/syr/

Charged up about this news: Last year, electricity generated from renewables surpassed coal in the United States for the first time, according to @EIAgov apnews.com/article/renewa… (🧵)

A new solar-power-focused spin on the old ​“think global, act local” maxim! Communities across the U.S. are tapping @GoSolSmart to streamline permitting and zoning and expand access to #SolarEnergy. @CanaryMediaInc @jeffsaintjohn @EEREgov #SolarReady canarymedia.com/articles/solar…

Research from @WoodMackenzie says the number of public fast-charging ports for #ElectricVehicles will increase by 60-fold between 2022 and 2050 in the U.S. & Canada. What happens now? @DanGearino @insideclimate #EVcharging insideclimatenews.org/news/30032023/…

Researchers from @MIT & @nyuniversity aim to establish a feasible method for collaborating with #beekeepers and their colonies of #honeybees — in order to study the microbiome of cities. @linpoonsays @nyutandon @medialab bloomberg.com/news/articles/…

Allbirds is open-sourcing the toolkit used to create the world’s first net-zero-carbon shoe — the M0.0NSHOT — and inviting others to follow in its footsteps. @SustainBrands @Allbirds #SustainableFashion #EcoFashion sustainablebrands.com/read/chemistry…

New @ScientificData paper quantifies each country's contribution to global mean surface temperature rise. @Jones_MattW @Peters_Glen @gcarbonproject via @_HannahRitchie @OurWorldInData #ClimateChange #ClimateData #ClimateScience nature.com/articles/s4159…

The @EIAgov found the annual growth in #RenewableEnergy was largely driven by increased proliferation of #WindEnergy and #SolarEnergy — which collectively made up 14% of U.S. electricity in 2022, up from 12% in 2021. @thehill thehill-com.cdn.ampproject.org/c/s/thehill.co…
