This one is alarming, but the sea ice volume graph at https://polarportal.dk/en/sea-ice-and-icebergs/sea-ice-thickness-and-volume/ is straight up terrifying.

I think that's part of why the overall ocean temp is not breaking the previous 2 years' records. All the energy going into the oceans is melting more ice than before, and it takes more energy for ice to melt than become hotter water.

It’s supposed to be an above average hurricane season. Hope people near the gulf are ready.

NOAA's budget has been slashed, and so has that of the NWS. FEMA's capabilities have been degraded... Climate change-fighting and research initiatives have been shut down, since the Musk-monkeys and the administration at large don't believe in it (or any science that doesn't make them money, for that matter). What could possibly go wrong?

I'm not wishing ill on anyone but, I wonder what the administration's supporters in Florida and Louisiana will think about their circumstances if they get hammered by storms... and don't get the assistance that they need.

Jeff Landry has been trying to buddy up with Trump. But I do not believe it will get him far.

We have people here in LA who believe the weather is a conspiracy and that FEMA does absolutely nothing…so they celebrated this news. Local and state news pages are proof.

Pretty weird... I guess we'll find out soon enough how this is all going to work out... or not. It seems insane to me that people disregard little things like climate and the health of the biosphere in favor of a completely artificial construct like "the market"... as if expecting the planet to accommodate our economic whims. On a political level, what is the use of a government that does everything in its power to NOT provide services for its people? One of the many reasons why you DON'T run a country as if it were a corporation... why the Constitution calls for a "president" who is a servant of the people and NOT a CEO who is their boss. Again... what could possibly go wrong?
