The fact that #Pakistan is not to blame for #GlobalWarming is known to everyone. NAP is a framework, but I have my doubts about our leadership's capacity to effectively implement and monitor it.

Can we expect you to develop adaptive capacity in Pakistan given that there's lack of awareness about #climate-related issues?

A scorching heatwave now intensifies across the southern half of Europe; with +45°C coming for #Spain, #Italy, and #Greece as we head into next week

The southern half of Europe was experiencing scorching heat this week, but a strengthening heat dome over the #Mediterranean will soon worsen the situation. It will induce more extreme heat across the southern half of Europe in the following days. The strongest heatwave of the summer of 2023 continues and will bring even higher temperatures, reaching nearly +45 °C in Spain, Italy, and Greece.

Over the weekend, some relief came with the temporarily mixed air mass from the recent severe weather outbreaks across south-central #Europe. However, it won’t last long. The Mediterranean is overheating again. The following days will bring extremely high temperatures for many countries in the south, Spain, Italy, and later on Greece as well.

US: AAA pulls back from offering insurance in Florida, following Farmers

AAA will not renew the auto and home insurance policies for some customers in #Florida, joining a growing list of insurers dialing back their presence in the Sunshine State amid a growing risk of natural disasters.

"Unfortunately, Florida's insurance market has become challenging in recent years," the company said in a statement emailed to CBS MoneyWatch. "Last year's catastrophic hurricane season contributed to an unprecedented rise in reinsurance rates, making it more costly for insurance companies to operate."

As the Earth gets hotter, we don't seem to be doing much to slow it down. Electing science-denying idiots to public office is looking more and more like insane behavior on the part of voters.

Things are going to get far worse in the coming years.
With current leadership and stupidity of the masses, I don't see any positive ahead of us.

Will focus on getting the best I can from the years I have left and apologize to my kids for not doing much to give them a better future.

Humanity faces ‘collective suicide’ over #ClimateCrisis, warns UN chief

"#AntónioGuterres tells governments ‘half of humanity is in danger zone’, as countries battle extreme heat"

He added: “We have a choice. Collective action or collective suicide. It is in our hands.”

Wildfires raged at the weekend across Europe and north America. In south America, the Macchu Picchu archaeological site was threatened by fire. Extreme heat has broken records around the world in recent months, as heatwaves have struck India and south Asia, droughts have devastated parts of Africa, and unprecedented heatwaves at both poles simultaneously astonished scientists in March.

In the UK, an extreme heat warning was issued with the hottest temperatures ever recorded in the UK expected on Monday and highs above 40C forecast in some places.
