' #Climatechange includes both #global #warming driven by #human-induced #emissions of #greenhouse #gases and the resulting large-scale #shifts in #weather #patterns.'
According to the new #IntergovernmentalPanelOnClimateChange #IPCC #climatereport, the #carbon #budget that gives us the best odds of staying below 1,5°C runs out in less than 5 and a half years at our current #emissions rate. The new report contains no real surprises. It confirms what we already know from thousands of previous studies and reports - that we are in an #emergency. It’s a solid (but cautious) #summary of the current best available science. It doesn't tell us what to do. It is up to us to be brave and take decisions based on the #scientific #evidence provided in these reports. We can still avoid the worst #consequences, but not if we continue like today, and not without treating the #crisis like a crisis.

2021 Allergy Forecast: A Bad Year for Everyone?

Like taxes, allergy season is one of those things you just can’t avoid. In fact, due to climate change, it may be getting worse. Warmer temperatures lead to more pollen production, so 2021 may be the most intense allergy season yet. And due to COVID-19 quarantine, children may especially have a rough year.

Gedanken | Wespensommer

Irgendwie haben wir dieses Jahr einen richtigen Wespensommer. Ich schmeide jeden Morgen wenn ich Nachts das Fenster offen hatte Wespen raus, heute morgen allein in meinem Arbeitszimmer fünf Stück. Vielleicht fliehen sie aber auch vor der nicht geringen nächtlichen Abkühlung dorthin. Am Holzschober habe ich diese Jahr schon drei Mal ein Wespennest entfernt und in einen unserer Komposthaufen sage und schreibe acht Mal. Verrückte Welt.
