Deputy Mayor of Paris to US media & influencers: "As the second-largest emitter of greenhouse gas emissions in the world, you bear a significant amount of responsibility for global warming and the consequences we, in France, are experiencing."

"Prime Minister Carney’s plan to sell more oil overseas won’t make life more affordable at home. Instead of tackling the climate crisis and investing in the solutions of the future that Canadians need, he is doubling down on costly fossil fuel infrastructure that will only make life harder for Canadians."

On that record hot summer of 2026, @nrc_nl@mastodon.nl says "get used to it". That's not a very practical advice now we're changing climate at a record rate. Less time to get used to any temporary state of the climate than ever before.

Escalating extreme #heatwaves, storms and #wildfires are not random chaos: they are the result of government inaction allowing fossil fuel companies and nature destroyers to profit over people.

LA Times: The surprising reason California survived record summer heat without blackouts
"...In fact, the state has not issued a Flex Alert since 2022, and it has not implemented rotating outages since 2020.
Over the last few years, California has quietly but dramatically increased the resiliency of its electrical grid through a significant expansion in battery energy storage.
These batteries hold onto solar energy captured during the day, so it can be sent to the grid as demand peaks in the evening and morning, when most people are at home running air conditioners and other appliances. ..."
(paywall, but gist of it is in the paragraph above).

Oooh, solar powered attic fan arrived! Now, hopefully it will cool off enough I can install it this weekend. (I dread to figure out the actual temperature in the attic at this moment). I can at least mount the solar panel fairly quickly and easily during cool morning hours. I really should put a sensor up in the attic and see how hot it is getting.

Yeesh, is "mass casualty incident because of a bomb threat evacuation but due to heat illness/heat stroke" on your threat matrix?!?!

Our forests are burning and fossil gas is making it worse.
But what exactly is fossil gas and how is it connected to the global heating?

Europe’s farmers are paying the price for climate breakdown while the EU keeps bankrolling the industrial agriculture fuelling it.
STOP subsidising Big Ag. Fund a fair shift to plant-rich farming that works with nature.

I don't count the #heatwaves in France anymore. I only look for the "coldest" nights to sleep (under 22°C) and how to survive appointments in the outer oven. At 30°-33°C, I make a happy dance because it feels cooler than up to 40°C.
I have overwhelming memories when and how I planted the trees I lost to the #drought. I'm sad to have lost an outdoor season and my natural feeling of time.
If you want to count: officially we are at No 5 and no end visible.

Around the world, cities are making room for nature.
Concrete and asphalt trap heat, making heatwaves even harder to deal with.
That’s why more and more cities are bringing nature back into urban spaces 🌳
From planting urban forests to replacing paved spaces with greenery, these solutions help keep cities cooler and more liveable for everyone 💚
Which one would you like to see in your city?
