President Joe Biden opens an international climate summit saying that the United States "isn't waiting" to address climate change. "The cost of inaction keeps mounting... we are resolving to take action," he adds in his opening remarks.
Good job, Mr. Biden, you are a leader.
Exactly....the cost of inaction serait très dommageable....et de plus les nouvelles technologies environnementales sont fort prometteuses et vont apporter un impact économique indéniable avec emplois très lucratifs......une économie verte qui se développe
is a win win situation.......yes BRAVO JOE.
is a win win situation.......yes BRAVO JOE.
...et encore une fois BIDEN tient parole et respecte ses engagements électoraux 
..il avait dit en campagne que les US réintégreraient the PARIS ACCORD signé en 2005.....et oui c'est fait et cette fois avec des cibles de 50% plus élevées qu'en 2005....oui great
leadership.

Climate has shifted the axis of the Earth, study finds
Melting glaciers redistributed enough water to cause the direction of polar wander to turn and accelerate eastward during the mid-1990s, according to a new study.

Climate has shifted the axis of the Earth, study finds.
Loss of water on land through ice melting and human-caused factors is changing the movement of the North and South poles.
And then you have this

I've been to Japan once. An interesting country. It seems to me that they will benefit from an increase in the climate towards warming. Although .. these people are indifferent to the weather as such. there is no cold if there is a warm spring near your house)) Of course, not everyone is so lucky, but ... I tried opening the water season by removing the awning from my backyard pool. It was 59F and the sun was shining brightly. I took out my Dolphin Premier and cleaned the pool in a couple of minutes. Then he ran up and dived)) And you know what? I hate the cold. Let everything go to hell and the weather will be like in Miami) I never want to close the pool for the winter.
The Harm the Tar Sands Will Do | The Tyee
The project's expected costs to our forests, water and air.

The environmental consequences of oil production from Alberta’s tar sands are major, beginning with its effect on climate change.
North America’s transition to oil from the tar sands not only perpetuates, but actually worsens, emissions of greenhouse gas pollution from oil consumption.
While the end products from conventional oil and tar sands are the same (mostly transportation fuels), producing a barrel of synthetic crude oil from the tar sands releases up to three times more greenhouse gas pollution than conventional oil.
This is a result of the huge amount of energy (primarily from burning natural gas) required to generate the heat needed to extract bitumen from the tar sands and upgrade it into synthetic crude.
The energy equivalent of one barrel of oil is required to produce just three barrels of oil from the tar sands.
Any article that calls the oilsands tar sands I dismiss as stupidity. We could shutdown the oilsands completely and all fossil fuel vehicles in Canada and it will not alter the climate one bit, but it would cost Canadians a fuck of a lot of money to do so. Those who preach this should not use any fossil fuels and live off the grid completely, see how that life is for you.

Speaking of lithium mines, it takes 2 million liters of water to produce one ton of lithium.

Environmental damage is not just oil, too bad some are blinded by the media.
For those that are media challenged and do no research.
Mining and processing of lithium, however, turns out to be far more environmentally harmful than what turned out to be the unfounded issues with fracking. ... The lithium ion battery industry is expected to grow from 100 gigawatt hours of annual production in 2017 to almost 800 in 2027.

Research shows Canadians worried about Liberal climate plans
“Some noted the higher cost of electric vehicles and renewable energy technologies such as solar and questioned the affordability, reliability or return on investment of these technologies,” wrote researchers.
Coastal areas of India's southern Kerala state faced ravaging pre-storm winds and heavy rains on Saturday.
The meteorological department issued a red alert in five districts of the state in the wake of cyclone Tauktae, including Alappuzha district.
Roofs of houses collapsed in the Pathirapally region of Alappuzha, leaving many people homeless, while some regions faced incessant rains and subsequent flooding in villages, prompting authorities to move villagers to higher terrain.
The storm is expected to intensify into a "severe cyclonic storm" by evening, the India Meteorological Department (IMD), and is likely to make landfall on the western coast of India on May 17.
That's exactly what India needed right now, as if covid wasn't enough of a disaster. Best of luck to everyone there.
Heavy rains in Texas, Louisiana add to misery in flood zones

The National Weather Service is warning that more rain is expected in Louisiana, Texas, Oklahoma and Arkansas through at least Thursday, adding to this week's flooding woes.
Downpours earlier this week swamped vehicles and closed a major interstate highway in southwest Louisiana, including the Lake Charles area.
It's an area still recovering from back-to-back hurricanes last fall and a deep freeze in February.
Twelve to 15 inches of rain fell in parts of Lake Charles in a 12-hour period Monday, the weather service said.
Everything is fine, it's not because the climate is changing
Record-shattering 2020 Atlantic hurricane season officially comes to an end
After six long months and 30 storms from Arthur to Iota, the record-shattering 2020 Atlantic hurricane season officially ends Monday.
www.usatoday.com
Of the 30 storms, 12 hit U.S. shores, also a record number. The previous record was 9. The previous record was nine, set way back in 1916.
October and November were extremely active with seven storms and a whopping 4 major hurricanes.
In the U.S., Hanna, Laura and Zeta all rapidly intensified in the 24 hours prior to landfall.
A typical season sees only 12 storms.
The numbers cannot lie.
