This graphic from the WMO report is one of the best visuals I have seen that clearly illustrates the connection between increasing greenhouse gas concentrations, rising temperatures, and reinforcing feedback loops that lead to devastating high-impact events with consequent risks to populations around the world.
It's not a pretty picture.

If you do NOT want to be one of the many who remain blissfully uninformed — those who somehow can stay complacent amid increasing climate chaos — here is an excellent resource for learning what you need to know.
The World Meteorological Organization (WMO), an agency of the United Nations, provides an annual report on the state of the global climate. This year's effort includes a helpful explainer that covers all the basics with a few minutes reading.

I'm going to pick out several highlights and discuss them in a thread below. This post will serve as an introduction. 🧵 1/5

Amazon rainforest cut down to build highway for COP climate summit

Amazon forest felled to build road for climate summit
"A new four-lane highway cutting through tens of thousands of acres of protected Amazon rainforest is being built for the COP30 climate summit in the Brazilian city of Belém.
It aims to ease traffic to the city, which will host more than 50,000 people - including world leaders - at the conference in November.
The state government touts the highway's "sustainable" credentials, but some locals and conservationists are outraged at the environmental impact.
The Amazon plays a vital role in absorbing carbon for the world and providing biodiversity, and many say this deforestation contradicts the very purpose of a climate summit."

since bird-killing wind turbines seem to be in the news again it's time to share this graph about the things that kills birds
Spolier alert - turbines are so far down this list that this new cycle is clearly not motivated by a love of birds.
