The #carbon cost of doing #business will come to bite, whether through regulation, trade policy or investor demand. The question is whether Indian companies will wait for the bill or start pricing it in today #ClimateEmergency #carbonfootprint livemint.com/opinion/online…

Preliminary rainfall estimates from NOAA's MRMS puts about half a million folks in Florida (850 square miles) in a 1-100 year Flood event from #Milton.
Some areas even experienced a 1-200 year event.

Well said @shahzadgani. Not short cut solutions. Cloud seeding is a big gimmick.
You wrote well what is right on this issue. I am sure, you may gain a few enemies in the scientific fraternity.
Be bold & speak only truth. We have responsibility to the society. I admire you.

@ClimateDann @emily_vosper Just curious about the southern Indian Ocean having larger exposure numbers than the northern.

Extremely proud of Dr @emily_vosper for passing her PhD with flying colours. Emily has created a generative AI method of downscaling tropical cyclones around the world to hazard-relevant scales. Using her methods we can now investigate the vulnerabilities of exposed populations👇

The landslides that killed hundreds of people in Wayanad, northern Kerala were triggered by a burst of rainfall that was made about 10% heavier by climate change 📈🌧️
Until fossil fuels are replaced with renewable energy, downpours will increase, risking more landslides.

Drone footage shows the extent of damage after deadly landslides struck Wayanad in the southern Indian state of Kerala on Tuesday. Parts of Wayanad were flattened by thick torrents of mud and water. Hopes of finding more survivors are fading even as hundreds remain missing.
