#BBCNews - Even camels can't cope: Africa's ships of the desert hit by rising temperatures https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cqlxvvw06pqo #Climate #ClimateChange

Paroles d'un médecin urgentiste dans Libération d'aujourd'hui : «On revit 2003 pour ceux qui l’ont connu. Des déshydratations, des chutes, des unités d’hospitalisation de courte durée pleines à craquer, des nonagénaires qui ne résistent pas dans leurs logements devenus des fours. Aujourd’hui, comme en 2003, je suis aux urgences. Comme en 2003, les ambulances font la queue pour nous confier des malades de cette France qui se délabre. La France n’a rien appris de 2003. L’Etat n’a rien appris du Covid. «Alors on peut déclencher des plans Orsan niveau 100, on peut faire des grandes incantations pour “lutter contre les déserts médicaux”, on peut promettre la Lune. Mais tout ça ne fait qu’occuper l’espace de la communication et ne répond en rien aux tristes réalités de notre pays. Il aurait fallu former plus de personnels, ne pas fermer 43 500 lits [depuis 2013, ndlr], aider les propriétaires à climatiser les logements, investir sur les établissements publics et privés (la plupart sont des passoires thermiques). Ce ne sont que des choix politiques finalement. On en sort quand de cette incurie ?.» #canicule #climat #climatechange #politics #france

Western Europe has experienced its hottest June on record. A rapid attribution study concluded that comparable temperatures would have been virtually impossible in the climate of fifty years ago. The scientific foundations of human-caused warming are firmly established; the more difficult argument now concerns money, timing, responsibility & the management of risk https://cfi.co/sustainability/2026/10/the-summer-the-debate-shifted-heat-money-and-the-cost-of-waiting/ #ClimateChange #UpheavalClimate #ClimateInstability #MassAtrocity #pollution #ecology #environment #climate

As resistance to emissions mitigation intensifies and climate damages become harder to ignore, political attention is increasingly turning towards adaptation, long the parent pauvre of climate action. Unlike mitigation, adaptation can be presented as protection rather than transformation, without directly challenging fossil-fuel-dependent systems and livelihoods https://www.ipe.com/comment/adaptation-business-as-usual-and-business-unusual/10138621.article #ClimateChange #UpheavalClimate #ClimateInstability #MassAtrocity #pollution #ecology #environment #climate

The Greenland Ice Sheet: 20% of the entire dataset abrupt thaw of permafrost in boreal forests just below the Arctic: 0.7%. The North Atlantic subpolar gyre: 3.1% which potentially consequential climate risks remain difficult to assess because comparatively little scientific attention has reached them? Finding those gaps before the climate system tests them for us would be a useful place to start https://theconversation.com/some-climate-tipping-points-are-being-studied-far-more-than-others-new-research-293614 #ClimateChange #UpheavalClimate #pollution #ecology #environment #climate

Although the social and environmental costs of renewable energy technologies are often gestured at parenthetically in left discourse about climate action, they are rarely given serious and sustained attention. It is generally assumed that because a rapid transition to renewables is necessary to avoid full-on climate disaster, we will simply have to accept these costs without too much critical scrutiny https://www.counterpunch.org/2026/10/09/why-capitalism-wont-save-the-climate/ #ClimateChange #pollution #ecology #environment #climate

Meanwhile, IMF-backed austerity and fossil-fuel policies in countries including Ecuador and Pakistan are limiting investment in climate adaptation and, in some cases, undermining the shift to renewable energy. With climate-vulnerable countries facing mounting damage, the authors argue that institutions must expand grant-based finance and debt relief, and ensure climate risks are built into lending decisions and economic programmes https://greencentralbanking.com/2026/10/09/world-bank-and-imfs-lack-of-climate-action-could-make-countries-bystanders-in-their-own-destruction/ #ClimateChange #pollution #ecology

First, engaging critically with the social injustices that climate agendas might create and perpetuate can help tackle climate change in a way that is conducive to a fair and just transition The coalitions emerging between social and environmentally oriented parties to present a stronger front against right-wing parties engage with backlash that is more ideological https://www.resilience.org/stories/2026-10-09/urban-greenlash-why-is-climate-action-facing-opposition-across-cities/ #ClimateChange #UpheavalClimate #ClimateReversal #MassAtrocity #pollution #ecology #environment #climate

investor protections can enter through investment treaties, private contracts, International Seabed Authority sponsorship agreements and national deep sea mining laws. That could leave Pacific governments exposed if they later introduce stronger environmental protections, cancel permits or place limits on extraction https://pmn.co.nz/read/pacific-region/deep-sea-mining-could-give-investors-a-legal-route-to-challenge-climate-action-experts #ClimateChange #UpheavalClimate #ClimateInstability #ClimateReversal #MassAtrocity #pollution #ecology #environment #climate
