“The prevailing assumption is that the world has closed off pathways above 3°C warming – but in fact we could be derailed by vicious cycles in societies & nature. Catastrophic environmental change is still very much on the table“ - @jamesgdyke.info Assistant Director of @gsiexeter.bsky.social
A year ago, Spain was hit by deadly floods
They were supercharged by climate change
Yet in their wake, climate-denying politicians gained influence - which risks undermining climate action, making people less safe
Today we publish new research on this troubling dynamic🧵
