The global costs of extreme weather that are attributable to climate change - Nature Communications
Neman and Noy estimate the global climate change costs of extreme weather and find that US $$\$$$ $ 143 B/yr of the costs of extreme events is attributable to climatic change. The majority of this is due to human loss of life.Nature

While reading “The Ministry for the Future” by Kim Stanley Robinson, I find myself wondering if this book should be required reading at #COP28
The story is fiction, of course. But it’s also highly informed & quite believable (so far). And it’s set in the not too distant future. #books #ClimateChange

I know a lot of ppl at #COP28. But the thing is, the majority of them aren’t scientists or legislators. They’re also not working on #ClimateChange issues personally.
I can’t help but wonder if the UN #climate summits have become more of an annual festival than a productive dialogue.
According to The Washington Post, there are a record 84,000 attendees in Dubai this year due to “a large influx of business executives & lobbyists.”

When we think of #food, we often aren’t paying attention to soil, but it’s actually what sustains our global food system.
Unfortunately, #ClimateChange, unsustainable farming practices & more are degrading soil around the world.
I don’t get to see each episode of Serving Up Science until they are published, but I like this new video. And I’m so glad they let me talk about soil health. https://youtu.be/FnOHwq6iSpk?si=5umwoGQU7DFrdhCD

1/ What can you, a software engineer, do to fight #ClimateChange? My initial answer continues to be politics (https://codewithoutrules.com/2019/09/10/software-developers-climage-change/) but I now have a secondary answer.
There's a lot of software out there and it's ludicrously inefficient. Not because people don't care, but because no one bothered to look, or the cost is spread across millions of people, or because no one has time (open source! it's fun.)
Let me give you some examples—
What can a software developer do about climate change?
Pines and firs are dying across the Pacific Northwest, fires rage across the Amazon, it’s the hottest it’s ever been in Paris—climate change is impacting the whole planet, and things are not getting any better.Itamar Turner-Trauring (Code Without Rules)
