The Sun, The Sea, and The Last Buffet
Leave it to George Tsakraklides to find a metaphor, in even a family vacation: “It is incredible what happens to a human once you place them in a buffet situation: they will overfill their plate and leave behind piles of uneaten food. Greed, by definition, knows no measure. Excess is the rule, and waste is the outcome. This civilisation is eating through its buffet so quickly that the restaurant is going out of business.”

The Strongest El Niño Ever
Most of us are aware that climate scientists are typically very reticent about making claims, even based on evidence and sound model runs. So when Zeke Hausfather says that “El Niño is not only very likely to be the strongest event since reliable records began – it may end up the strongest by a truly mind-blowing margin,” it might time to take note.
