They note that in addition to advances in climate fingerprinting, global warming has also advanced: The post-2009 period included the 10 warmest years in instrumental surface temperature records, enhancing the signal of human-caused warming relative to the "noise" of natural variability.

Global prices for rice, sugar, cotton, and pulses are surging due to severe climate shocks, reduced production forecasts in major growing regions, and soaring shipping costs, adding to worldwide inflationary pressures
Rice prices have hit two-year highs, pressured by tight supplies and rising logistical expenses, with container costs surging from $5,000 to nearly $55,000

Even if it needs repeating, again and again: the answer isn’t in the soil. It lies in how we organise our economy. The real issue is climate change. If we don’t stop it, anything else we do alongside it will be pointless

Hundreds Of Data Centers Blocked, Good For Environment
Local and state officials across the nation have blocked data centers that would have cost $260 billion to build. Residents do not want buildings that compete with them for electricity & use millions of gallons of water. The formula is simple. Less energy means less use of the fossil fuels that power them
