#Alaska #USA #US Before Alaska Flooding, E.P.A. Canceled $20 Million Flood Protection Grant The remote village of Kipnuk planned to use the money to protect against flooding. On Sunday, it was inundated “This administration prioritizes lowering costs — but minimizing the impacts of a disaster like this before it occurs is far cheaper than rebuilding afterward, to say nothing of the toll these events take on people’s lives,” Ms. Murkowski said in a statement https://archive.ph/NYESf #Climate
First assessment of UNESCO sites finds widespread climate impacts UNESCO’s first global biodiversity and climate assessment finds 98% of its 2,200+ sites have faced climate extremes since 2000, with a 1°C (1.8°F) rise by 2050 expected to triple exposure. Around 20% of sites overlap Indigenous lands, putting communities at the frontline of risks like wildfires, droughts, glacial retreat and biodiversity loss #ClimateChange #GlobalWarming #IrreversibleOverheating #climate
The team plans to expand the model's capabilities by integrating additional environmental variables, such as soil moisture, land use changes, and #climate projections, to improve predictive accuracy under diverse conditions They also aim to work closely with stakeholders including water managers, emergency responders, policymakers and others, to apply the #AI in real-world decision-making, refine its interpretability, and support more resilient water resource management https://phys.org/news/2025-10-scientists-ai-river-entire-aid.html
Researchers from the Leibniz Institute for Catalysis (LIKAT), Ruhr University Bochum and Evonik Oxeno have developed a novel catalyst system that enables the use of the climate gas carbon dioxide (CO₂) as a raw material for the chemical industry. This breakthrough allows for the more sustainable production of key products such as fragrances and building blocks for plastics https://phys.org/news/2025-10-raw-material-catalyst-climate-gas.html #ClimateChange #GlobalWarming #IrreversibleOverheating #pollution #environment #climate
#UK Heat Waves Are Drying Out UK Landscapes and Increasing Wildfire Risk, Study Finds UK heat waves driven by climate change are drying out soil and vegetation, increasing wildfire risks even in low-risk areas. A new study finds wildfires could become more common and harder to control across the country #ClimateChange #GlobalWarming #IrreversibleOverheating #UpheavalClimate #GlobalBurning #ClimateDestruction #MassExtermination #MassAtrocity #environment #climate
#Buller #NZ #NewZealand The outgoing Buller Mayor has made an impassioned plea for future leaders to continue climate adaptation work to help protect his flood-prone town of Westport. Jamie Cleine cried as he told the Adaptation Futures Conference about the risk facing his town from multiple and increasingly damaging floods #ClimateChange #GlobalWarming #IrreversibleOverheating #UpheavalClimate #MassExtermination #MassAtrocity #pollution #environment #climate
#USA #US #Mediterranean #SouthernAfrica #SA Almost three-quarters of drought-prone regions around the world will be at risk of extreme water shortages known as "day zero droughts" by 2100 if emissions aren't reduced, and a third of these regions could be hit before 2030, according to a new study. Areas under threat include cities in the U.S., the Mediterranean and southern Africa #ClimateChange #GlobalWarming #IrreversibleOverheating #pollution #environment #climate
#COP30 The UN says the deal has made a difference. Before Paris, the world was heading to 5C of warming by the end of the century, a trajectory now moderated to a still-catastrophic 3C "We must admit failure, failure to protect peoples and nations from unmanageable impacts of human-induced climate change" "But we don't have to keep failing" #ClimateChange #GlobalWarming #IrreversibleOverheating #UpheavalClimate #MassExtermination #MassAtrocity #environment #climate
