Robert Tulip highlights a disturbing trend in Earth’s albedo decline: 0.15% in the first decade of the century, 0.3% in the second, and now a rate above 0.6% per decade. Darkening is accelerating.

#MEERTalk #ClimateOvershoot
Luke Kemp addresses the unequal drivers of climate change: a handful of emitters and the richest 1% are responsible for a disproportionate share of global emissions.
#climatechange #globalemmisions #MEERTalk #emitters
History shows collapse isn’t random.
Luke Kemp says rising inequality is the thread connecting past empires to today’s global crises.

Coral reefs may already be past a point of no return. As climate instability deepens, the very systems needed to respond are breaking down. This isn’t just ecological loss — it’s systemic failure. (Paul Gambill)

Carbon removal won’t scale fast enough. What happens next?
In our upcoming January MEERTalk, Paul Gambill explains why cooling interventions are a necessary bridge, buying time while permanent CO₂ removal scales.

Lots of hugs from the #doomisphere my friend!
I'd really love to see you do a #MEERtalk! Perhaps @climatecasino.net can make something happen? 🤓
Oh, and thanks for the slides
I love that you also focus a bit on the dust bowl event ('36). #DustBowl2.0 incoming, probably #SoonerThanExpected™! 😱 🥺
