Donald Trump has won re-election in the USA. But what does it mean for climate change worldwide? I discuss climate science, climate policy, and Trump's anti-science agenda with the fabulous @ClimateAdam.

DJ, Dr. Gilbz in my view is very conservative/on the safe side on climate change/collapse. Still the elected führer of the American people trump-the lunatic "knows best"...as long as there is snow there can not be climate collapse....
DJ-Like in pandemics-learning the hard way...may cost a few billion human lives " but who cares"....

Why don't we discuss the fact that Elon Musk, Jeff Bezos & Larry Ellison own more wealth than the bottom HALF of Americans?
Part of the answer is that the people who own the media are doing phenomenally well. They aren't interested in highlighting massive levels of inequality.

A new study finds that up to 91% of planetary boundary breaching can be attributed to the top 20% of global consumers.
There is no such thing as sustainability without expropriating the rich.
DJ, so the rich "fight climate change" by buying the "best politicians, media, science-for sale"...
In 2023, the global mean temperature soared to 1.48K above the pre-industrial level, surpassing the previous record by 0.17K. Previous best-guess estimates of known drivers including anthropogenic warming and the El Nino onset fall short by about 0.2K in explaining the temperature rise. Utilizing satellite and reanalysis data, we identify a record-low planetary albedo as the primary factor bridging this gap.
The decline is caused largely by a reduced low-cloud cover in the northern mid-latitudes and tropics, in continuation of a multi-annual trend. Understanding how much of the low-cloud trend is due to internal variability, reduced aerosol concentrations, or a possibly emerging low-cloud feedback will be crucial for assessing the current and expected future warming.
DJ, "in a democracy we vote on problems...if the majority does not see a problem as a problem the problem is solved"...trump, wilders, most (western) politicians are for sale/bought...Climate collapse=pandemics...
Maybe people vote for idiots because they know we are very deep in lots of problems ?
