🌎 TIPPING POINT SEASON What if climate change isn’t simply about a planet getting warmer? What if we are entering a period when multiple climate tipping points begin activating, interacting, and amplifying one another? That is the argument behind the paper, “Tipping Point Season.” The first tipping point season emerged in 2023–2024, when global temperatures […]

Tipping Point Season
by Daniel Brouse Introduction: What Is Tipping Point Season? The first tipping point season was 2023–2024, when global temperatures exceeded +1.5°C for an extended period. During that season, nine tipping points became observable: This phenomenon occurred simultaneously with El Niño. ENSO is not a cause of climate change; rather, it is a manifestation of the […]
Tipping Points That Toppled
When Climate Feedbacks Stop Looking Theoretical By Daniel Brouse The 2023–2024 El Niño event made observable what had previously been discussed largely as theoretical: multiple climate-system tipping processes were being pushed simultaneously. At least nine potential tipping points were being knocked or pushed toward critical thresholds during the 2023–2024 period. Two of the clearest examples […]
