BREAKING 🌍🌡📈 The German Meteorological Society and Physical Society warn today that 3°C of global warming could be reached already by 2050! Global warming is accelerating - A call for decisive action 1/8

It can no longer be denied: Climate change is progressing unabated and accelerating. 1.5°C limit for global warming agreed upon in Paris may already have been permanently exceeded. 3°C limit could be exceeded as early as 2050' 2/8

'Increasingly extreme weather conditions are making predictable agriculture difficult, and in some cases impossible. There is a high risk that the limits of habitability will be exceeded in some regions of the world. 3/8

Decisive collective action can prevent loss of control 'We therefore call on all political actors in Germany to become aware of the real danger posed by progressive man-made global warming and the urgency of action.' 4/8

Read this and more in today's call by the German Meteorological Society and Physical Society (Auto translation from German works fine, and I have been told they will soon publish reporting English, h/t @terliwetter.bsky.social, great meteorologist at ZDF) www.dpg-physik.de/veroeffentli... 6/8

3°C of global warming by 2050 might be hard to imagine, but it could happen if the non-linear warming trend of the past 30 years continues. See this graph with @ecmwf.int ERA5 data (trend line has an R² of 0.975), made using the code they provided, by @tugberksamur.bsky.social 8/8

The Netherlands will be destroyed in the next 100 year. It is over.
