Stay informed and inspired by cutting-edge research!
Many children & teenagers have questions about our changing climate.
That’s why #MPI_scientist Mia Specht is taking part in #SkypeAScientist. Through live online Q&A sessions, Mia connects with school classes around the world, answers their questions about #ClimateScience + the ocean, & shares insights into her life as a climate scientist.
It's an easy & rewarding way to make science accessible & inspire future generations.

Climate Extremes: Extreme Weather (Full Documentary) OoS Pictures
The European Central Bank modelled the economic risks of a series of climate disasters in a row.
If we’re unlucky in the next few years:
“a series of extreme climate events could cause euro area GDP to fall by up to 5% – a downturn similar in magnitude to the economic impact of the Global Financial Crisis.”

#FYI #PaulBeckwith video lecture and literature review
Paul on the #JamesHansen blogpost advocating for his Institute and for independent research, as well as David Suzuki's work, in contrast to the dangerous disinformation rightwing denialists are spreading.
“Climate change tripled death toll of latest European heatwave, first ever rapid study finds”
- 1500 excess deaths in 12 cities
- possibly tens of thousands across Europe
- 88% of deaths over 65 yrs old
- but young should not think they’re invulnerable!
Melting glaciers can lead to more volcanism, as ice pressure on magma chambers reduces, claims study.
If true, that’s a pretty surprising climate-geology link, at least to me!

June 2025 highlights:
June 2025 was the third-warmest June globally, with an average ERA5 surface air temperature of 16.46°C, 0.47°C above the 1991-2020 average for June.
June 2025 was 1.30°C above the estimated 1850-1900 average used to define the pre-industrial level. It was only the third month in the last 24 with a global temperature less than 1.5°C above the pre-industrial level.
The average temperature over European land for June 2025 was 18.46°C, 1.10°C above the 1991-2020 average for June, making the month the fifth-warmest June in the record.
The average sea surface temperature (SST) for June 2025 over 60°S–60°N was 20.72°C, the third-highest value on record for the month, 0.13°C below the June 2024 record.
Arctic sea ice extent was 6% below average, the second lowest monthly extent for June in the 47-year satellite record. During the latter part of the month, the daily extent was consistently the lowest for the time of year.
In June 2025, it was drier than average in western and southern Europe, as well as much of the UK and regions of southern Scandinavia, and parts of western Russia.
How do clouds influence global warming?
How does the sea surface temperature pattern influence climate sensitivity?
How can km-scale models improve our understanding of clouds in the climate system?
We’re excited to share our work on these questions at this year’s #CFMIP (Cloud Feedback Model Intercomparison Project) conference in Exeter! Looking forward to engaging discussions& to gaining new perspectives on how clouds affect the climate system.

They are Steven E. Koonin, a #physicist & author of a best-selling book that calls #ClimateScience “unsettled”; John Christy, an #atmospheric scientist who doubts the extent to which #human activity has caused #GlobalWarming; & Roy Spencer, a #meteorologist who believes that #clouds have had a greater influence on warming than #humans have [okay that last one is just bonkers].

Trump removed all #climatescience websites and is trying to remove all scientists, it’s fascist insanity. Why? because he’s owned by oil. The tax and spend bill removes all renewable incentives too.

NEVER underestimate the forces of nature
Comment in Nature by JRC researchers on setting medium term climate targets:
“The modelling community can contribute realistic sectoral and economy-wide pathways, avoiding inconsistencies between intermediate and mid-century targets”
—> this is very important as fear of non-achievability drives political resistance. We need convincing techno-economic modelling, preferably by your own national institutes.
