The heart breaking Texas flood is another example of a rain event, that statistically, happens once every 500-1000 years in this location. 15-20” of rain in 12-24 hours meets that threshold in this part of Texas. This estimate is limited by our historical record. And these rare events happen in various localized places each year. It’s rare, but not uncommon in Texas to have these disastrous floods. 1/

Alibaba’s $BABA new CEO disagrees with US large tech’s insane R&D and CapEx spend. If you’re read between the words, he is suggesting that much of those billions is wasted in an arms race which will most likely not deliver ROIs. Instead of making the best possible model by spending ridiculous amounts of money, the focus should be on real world applications — solving the important issues and problems of humanity.

Amazing chart. The amount of global renewal energy capacity each year keeps blows the long-term predictions out of the water.

Clairement c’est le scénario du cauchemar.⚠️Une nouvelle #Dana (goutte froide) devrait s’isoler dès mardi au large du Portugal, risquant de générer des pluies abondantes le long de la côte espagnole🇪🇸,en s’alimentant à profusion en humidité depuis la Méditerranée & Atlantique.

Even if we are (comparatively) lucky & manage to avoid triggering any of the major #Earth system tipping points discussed in this film, we're already dealing with consequences of "expanding atmospheric sponge"--which is increasing wet & dry extremes. [Link below] #ClimateChange

"Climate Extremes: At The Abyss?" is now available for viewing. In this new documentary film, we discuss the complexity of Earth system dynamics on a warming planet--including the rising risk of reaching dangerous "tipping points." #ClimateChange #AMOC youtu.be/U8pLrRkqbb0?si…

Are we at risk of crossing planetary tipping points? Are we at risk of pushing the planet toward a trajectory where it could unstoppably drift away from a state that can support life as know it?
