In 2010, New York City's carbon footprint was 54 million metric tons of CO2, equating to 1.72 tons per second. This immense scale of atmospheric pollution is often difficult for most people to comprehend.

Carbon Visuals and the Environmental Defense Fund aim to make these emissions more tangible. They help visualize both the total output and the rate of emission, making the city's environmental impact more understandable.

Paul Hawken's "Regeneration: Ending the Climate Crisis in One Generation" proposes a holistic approach to solving the climate crisis. This framework suggests that regeneration—restoring ecosystems, communities, and planetary health—can heal a "broken world."

The book advocates for placing life and human connection at the center of decision-making to achieve this goal, aiming to resolve the climate crisis within one generation.

Syukuro Manabe delivered his Nobel Prize lecture, "Physical modelling of Earth’s climate," on Wednesday, December 8, 2021. Professor Thors Hans Hansson introduced him.

Manabe shared the 2021 Nobel Prize in Physics with Klaus Hasselmann. Their work was recognized for "physical modelling of Earth's climate, quantifying variability and reliably predicting global warming."

The prize, awarded for "groundbreaking contributions to our understanding of complex systems," also saw Giorgio Parisi receive the other half for his discoveries on disorder and fluctuations in physical systems.

From June 14-16, 2023, Portugal hosted the Global Exploration Summit (GLEX Summit) in the Azores. Co-organized by The Explorers Club and Expanding World, the summit brought together leading explorers to showcase discoveries, innovative solutions, and technology for exploring our planet, oceans, and space.

Among the presenters was Andrew Revkin, a lauded journalist with 40 years dedicated to the sustainability beat. Known for his innovative reporting from the Amazon to the Arctic, Revkin presented on "The Scariest Climate Science."

At the COP15 Biodiversity Conference in Montreal, John D. Liu, Paul Beckwith, Raya Salter, and Dale Walkonen provided an update. They discussed the #30by30 proposal, which aims to conserve 30% of the world's lands and oceans for nature by 2030. Key questions regarding implementation, governance, indigenous involvement, and funding remain unresolved.

Addressing the Climate Crisis requires restoring natural systems. The final agreement, crucial for this effort, is being finalized and expected by Friday, December 19th.

Al Gore criticized leaders at the January 2023 Davos forum for climate inaction, emphasizing how fossil fuel-based economies are pushing us toward the IPCC's worst scenarios. Daily, 16 million tons of greenhouse gases enter the troposphere, a number that continues to climb.

While we appreciate Gore's vital passion, it's also crucial to address animal agriculture alongside fossil fuel reduction.
