Amoc collapse could change Europe′s climate 10x faster than expected. We aren′t ready (The Guardian)
|
|
|
The system of ocean current that moves heat in the Atlantic Ocean plays a key role in regulating climate. Today's monitoring of it may be discontinuedImagine we detect a large asteroid heading straight for Earth. We are able to intervene and prevent disaster, but instead we cut the funding needed to track it. A few million dollars, it was argued, was too expensive to have a chance to save society.While this scenario isn't real, the metaphor is alarmingly accurate. In Europe, we spend €1bn to monitor space for asteroids, even if the actual risk of a civilisation-ending asteroid strike is close to zero. Continue reading......

Stärkstes Treibhausgas: Bezug von Schwefelhexafluorid sinkt 2025 um 19 % (Destatis)
|
|
|
Klimawirksame Stoffe beeinflussen die Erderwärmung und tragen zum Klimawandel bei. Das stärkste bekannte Treibhausgas ist Schwefelhexafluorid (SF6), dessen Treibhauspotenzial die Klimawirksamkeit von Kohlenstoffdioxid (CO2) um das 23 500-Fache übersteigt. Wie das Statistische Bundesamt (Destatis) mitteilt, haben deutsche Unternehmen im Jahr 2025 insgesamt 658,7 Tonnen dieses Stoffs bezogen. Das waren 154,6 Tonnen oder 19 % weniger als im Jahr 2024. Die im Jahr 2025 bezogene Menge SF6 entspricht 15,5 Millionen Tonnen CO2-Äquivalenten (Global Warming Potential, GWP), wobei SF6 zum Großteil in geschlossenen Systemen verwendet und nur in geringem Maß in die Atmosphäre freigesetzt wird....

Millions of homes in London, Essex and Kent at risk of sinking as climate crisis worsens (The Guardian)
|
|
|
Analysis pinpoints areas most vulnerable to hotter, drier weather causing ground to shrink and drag foundations downMillions of homes are at risk from climate-related subsidence, according toan analysis by the British Geological Survey (BGS).As hotter, drier summers driven by global heating become more frequent, the ground under houses can shrink and drag down a property's foundations. The most vulnerable areas include London, Essex, Kent and a tranche of land from Oxford up to the Wash on England's east coast, according to scientists, who say mitigation measures will be needed.
