California is completely drought-free statewide for the first time in over 3 years. Incredible.

Fourteen years ago, when the big three automakers were struggling to stay afloat, my administration and the American people stepped in to support them. So did the auto workers in the UAW who sacrificed pay and benefits to help get the companies back on their feet. Now that our carmakers are enjoying robust profits, it’s time to do right by those same workers so the industry can emerge more united and competitive than ever.

Over the last week I've seen a LOT of footage of flooding around the world. I thought I'd put them here in one place 🧵 #floods #ClimateEmergency #degrowth 1. Greece (1/13) twitter.com/us_stormwatch/…

#LEE MODELS 🌀 I want to reaffirm my message for Florida this will stay well east. I hope that will lower any anxiety and worry you might have about the storm. Models have been consistently away from Florida and have not changed...all 82 possibilities below. Even NHC noted in their recent discussion a poleward (north) turn next week. Florida East Coast will still see larger waves and the potential of dangerous rip currents. Long Island to Canada should closely monitor Hurricane Lee. Best case scenario is out to sea! I'll keep you posted on @WINKNews.

This is what Hurricane #Lee has transformed into in the last 24 hours. Incredible intensification into a cat 5.

Climate change is real, by the way.

Will be storm chasing in Southern California Sunday/Monday, covering California's first potential tropical cyclone landfall since 1939. Significant flash flooding will be the biggest threat, especially in southeast California deserts.

(1 of 5) IT’S OFFICIAL: Earth just had its hottest July in 174 years. 4th consecutive month of record-high global ocean surface temperature. Antarctica #SeaIce coverage had a record-low in July for the 3rd consecutive month. bit.ly/3OTnxkT @NOAANCEI #StateOfClimate

As a climate scientist, here are the recent climate news events that I am more or less worried about. More: new heat extreme records, wildfires, extreme flooding events. Less: AMOC collapse, Antarctic ice reduction. Still uncertain: North Atlantic SST records.

1. Cyclone Mocha is now making landfall over Myanmar. 2. At 278 km/hr, Mocha is the strongest cyclone to form in the north Indian Ocean (JTWC, satellite data). 3. Satellite image shows Cyclone Fabien in the south. 4. No sufficient satellite coverage to monitor these storms.

Wow! This is a super cool discovery! New Burgess-Shale type preservation fossil bed in Wales! science.org/content/articl…

Today in 1903, 110 million tonnes of limestone rock, measuring 1 km wide, 425 metres high & 150 metres deep, slides off Turtle Mountain on to the Town of Frank. The rockslide kills 70 to 90 people in Canada's deadliest landslide. Learn more 👇 canadaehx.com/2023/03/21/the…

Reminder. 40 C = 104 F ...and the monsoon begins next month.

It's chilling to see the increasing certainty in climate change attribution in the last four IPCC Reports. At the same time, here's fossil fuel use as percent of global primary energy consumption when those reports were published: 2001: 77.1% 2007: 79.7% 2013: 79.7% 2021: 77.1%

@_david_ho_ Peer reviewed? Will there be "doom deniers?"

Do you think climate scientists and the IPCC are too optimistic? Do you believe society is collapsing and humans are going extinct? Nature’s newest research journal — Nature Climate Doom — is the place to publish your best work about how and when the world will end.

On the bright side, your 401K should last, right? #HealthCareForAll
