So in the us we have cut the funding and the power of the programs to slow global warming. We have also cut the funding and powers of the organization that will help clean up and help those from the consequences of global warming.

‘Climate bombshell’: Lakes lose oxygen 9X faster than oceans in global crisis

Lakes lose oxygen 9x faster than oceans, with 80% showing depletion. Warming, algal blooms, and hydroclimate extremes threaten aquatic life

Well, there's a headline that certainly captures the moment: Big banks predict catastrophic warming, with profit potential.

“We now expect a 3°C world,” Morgan Stanley analysts wrote earlier this month."

"The stunning conclusion indicates that the bank believes the planet is hurtling toward a future in which severe droughts and harvest failures become widespread, sea-level rise is measured in feet rather than inches and tropical regions experience episodes of extreme heat and humidity for weeks at a time."

"Morgan Stanley’s climate forecast was tucked into a mundane research report on the future of air conditioning stocks, which it provided to clients on March 17."

Big Banks Quietly Prepare for Catastrophic Climate Change

#MorganStanley, #JPMorgan and an international banking group have quietly concluded that #ClimateChange will likely exceed the #ParisAgreement's 2 degree goal and are examining how to maintain profits.

The big banks' acknowledgment that the world is likely to fail at preventing warming of more than 2 degrees Celsius above preindustrial levels is spelled out in obscure reports for clients, investors and trade association members. Most were published after the reelection of President Donald Trump, who is seeking to repeal federal policies that support clean energy while turbocharging the production of oil, gas and coal — the main sources of #GlobalWarming.

"We now expect a 3°C world," Morgan Stanley analysts wrote earlier this month, citing "recent setbacks to global decarbonization efforts."

Morgan Stanley’s #climate forecast was tucked into a mundane research report on the future of air conditioning stocks, which it provided to clients on March 17. A 3 degree warming scenario, the analysts determined, could more than double the growth rate of the $235 billion cooling market every year, from 3 percent to 7 percent until 2030.

The study noted that pollinators provide more than $15 billion worth of food each year in North America.

Among the insect pollinators, extinction risks were highest with bees. Out of 472 species of bees studied in Canada and the U.S., 34.7 per cent were at risk of extinction. The study said that 10 bee, 11 butterfly, and two moth species were classified as critically imperilled

#FYI #PaulBeckwith video lecture and literature review

"Atmospheric rivers (ARs) are narrow, elongated regions of intense atmospheric moisture transport that are responsible for a large proportion of midlatitude extreme precipitation. [...] ARs will intensify due to warmer air’s ability to hold more moisture."
