Lee Duna@lemmy.nzOPto Climate Crisis, Biosphere & Societal Collapse@sopuli.xyz•Queensland Faces Housing Crisis Due to Climate Change, with 185,000 Homes Identified as High Risk to Climate ChangeEnglish1·5 days agoThat’s interesting, first time I’ve heard of that.
There seems to be some risks due to climate change in Tasmania. But I’m curious, will northern Australia really become that hot? 🤔

Lee Duna@lemmy.nzOPto Climate Crisis, Biosphere & Societal Collapse@sopuli.xyz•‘I couldn’t look’: European farmers on losing crops as the industry collides with worsening droughtEnglish2·6 days agoWell, Northern India is located within the ITCZ, which increases the risk factor for heavy rainfall.
The ITCZ is a belt of low pressure near the equator where trade winds from the Northern and Southern hemispheres converge. Its movement northwards towards India during summer brings moist winds and triggers the monsoon. The position and intensity of the ITCZ significantly influence the amount and distribution of rainfall across the country.

Lee Duna@lemmy.nzto Fuck AI@lemmy.world•The AI bubble is the only thing keeping the US economy together, Deutsche Bank warnsEnglish2·8 days agoWell, there is AI capex from big tech such as Google and Microsoft. And that’s why they’re pushing AI into their products also eyeing government contracts to ensure a steady flow of moneys into their pockets.
If people stop using their AI, it will be bad for them and the US economy…
Lee Duna@lemmy.nzto Europe@feddit.org•Drone sightings disrupt flights at Copenhagen, Oslo airportsEnglish1·11 days agoflown by professionals with battery power for 4 hours? feels similar to drones sigthing at US airbases in the UK. And no one was arrested.

Lee Duna@lemmy.nzOPto Climate Crisis, Biosphere & Societal Collapse@sopuli.xyz•Global water cycle is more erratic and harder to predict, UN scientists warnEnglish1·16 days agoA few days ago, while on public transportation. I heard the driver and the passenger next to him complaining about the drainage work being done during the rainy season.
The funny thing is that they don’t realize that even though it rained heavily yesterday, the peak of the rainy season should occur around January to March. Without climate change, it should still be the dry season.
This makes me think that so many people are unaware of climate change.
Lee Duna@lemmy.nzto Aotearoa / New Zealand@lemmy.nz•Aotearoa Weekly Kōrero 12/9/2025English2·19 days agoIt’s very difficult to convince my friends not to use AI tools (especially Copilot). I’ve tried to explain the reasons why, but to no avail; they refuse to listen.
When the CEO of M$ signed a contract with the government to use Azure. I’m sure M$ is also eyeing the use of Copilot in the government sector.

Lee Duna@lemmy.nzto Climate Crisis, Biosphere & Societal Collapse@sopuli.xyz•For the First Time in 40 Years, Panama’s Ocean Lifeline Has VanishedEnglish3·21 days agoWell this could help the Sahel countries, as they do not have the funds to continue the project. Of course, we do not know for sure whether the Sahara Desert or the Arabian Desert will become greener in the long term.

With increasing anthropomorphization of “climate”, few know that just 5,000 years ago, the massive desert extending from North Africa, through the Middle East and across Asia to the Gobi Desert in China was lush and a highly hydrated landscape. Even fewer know that the average temperature of the Earth in this era was significantly warmer than today.

I was just curious to find out about this after watching the NHK program “Silk Road” and it turns out there is also a Great Green Wall project in China.
and in Figure 2, the Gobi Desert is located within the ITCZ.

Just like me, the first time I heard about the ITCZ was when the Sahara Desert was flooded last year. And that was because of the ITCZ shift.

Lee Duna@lemmy.nzto Climate Crisis, Biosphere & Societal Collapse@sopuli.xyz•For the First Time in 40 Years, Panama’s Ocean Lifeline Has VanishedEnglish71·21 days agoThe article refers to a journal within the article, but this is not mentioned in the article.
However, we need further research.
Data suggest that the cause was a reduction in Panama wind-jet frequency, duration, and strength, possibly related to the Intertropical Convergence Zone (ITCZ) position during the 2024–2025 La Niña, though the mechanisms remain unclear. Nevertheless, the consequences are likely significant, including decreases in fisheries productivity and exacerbated thermal stress on corals that typically benefit from upwelling’s cooling.
Lee Duna@lemmy.nzto Climate Crisis, Biosphere & Societal Collapse@sopuli.xyz•For the First Time in 40 Years, Panama’s Ocean Lifeline Has VanishedEnglish3·22 days agoIt is likely due to climate change reducing the strength of the trade winds. This is indicative of much larger, global impacts from weakened trade winds.
Well, Panama is located within the Intertropical Convergence Zone (ITCZ), and wind speeds within the ITCZ are relatively weak.
Lee Duna@lemmy.nzto Climate Crisis, Biosphere & Societal Collapse@sopuli.xyz•For the First Time in 40 Years, Panama’s Ocean Lifeline Has VanishedEnglish94·22 days agoThere are many factors involved here, one of them is that Panama is located within the Intertropical Convergence Zone (ITCZ), and wind speeds within the ITCZ are relatively weak.
And I agree with what others have said, we don’t have enough data.
His speech at UN Assembly was too soft on Israel. And Israel used his words as if he had agreed to Israel’s plans and would recognize Israel. We have no diplomatic relations with Israel.
