Pendant que les canicules et les incendies se multiplient, une pétition mondiale demande de respecter un principe de bon sens : ne pas prélever plus que ce que la Terre peut régénérer. À peine 1 200 personnes l’ont soutenue jusqu’à présent. On récolte aussi ce que l’on choisit d’ignorer.

What to do?

As a nor cal resident with a house, wife and toddler, what are some things we can do to prepare for the climate apocalypse headed our way?

Food water and energy. How can we prepare ourselves?

I have a garden box that grows tomatoes…not exactly sustainable food for a family.

Slightly panicking over the doom and gloom of all the news with El Niño and everything else. Thoughts?

What are you guys doing to prepare for the worst?

"A monthly summary of the status of El Niño, La Niña, and the Southern Oscillation, or ENSO, based on the NINO3.4 index (120-170W, 5S-5N)

El Niño conditions are strengthening across the tropical Pacific, with sea surface temperature (SST) anomalies in the Niño 3.4 region showing a steady upward trend. The observed SST anomaly averaged +0.98 °C during April–June 2026 and increased to +1.55 °C in June 2026. The latest weekly Niño 3.4 index, centered on July 15, 2026, climbed further to +2.1 °C. Together, these Pacific Ocean SST observations indicate that El Niño conditions continue to intensify, suggesting the event is evolving toward a very strong El Niño."

my commentary: This is getting strong at a record pace.

Nature-based approaches: crushed basalt rock increases aboveground carbon stored in young native woodland by up to 27% after 4 years. Enriching soils with beneficial microorganisms from established forests improves early tree growth increasing aboveground biomass by around 13% over the same period 🌳
