by Daniel Brouse Summer is getting longer. A study by researchers at the University of British Columbia found that, between 1990 and 2023, summer-like conditions across the regions between the tropics and the polar circles expanded by roughly six days per decade. That rate is substantially faster than earlier estimates. The researchers did not define […]

How Is Climate Energy Hitting You? Swiss Alps: Fare Thee Well?
by Daniel Brouse The loss of glacier ice therefore represents more than a change in scenery. It is a change in the physical infrastructure of the European water cycle. Swiss glaciers are disappearing at an extraordinary rate. The Glacier Monitoring in Switzerland (GLAMOS) network and the Swiss Academy of Sciences report that Swiss glaciers lost […]

How Is Climate Energy Hitting You? The $13 Billion Nor’easter
by Daniel Brouse Introduction How Is Climate Energy Hitting You? THE $13 BILLION NORTHEASTERN U.S. NOR’EASTER The late-September 2026 nor’easter turned atmospheric and oceanic energy into a massive economic event. $10–13 BILLION in estimated damage and economic losses. Flooding.Beach and dune erosion.Downed trees.Power outages.Infrastructure damage.Transportation disruption. The storm demonstrates a simple connection: STORM ENERGY → […]
The Future of Humanity: +4°-7°C
by Daniel Brouse Introdution 🌎 THE FUTURE OF HUMANITY +4°C → +7°C: From Civilization Crisis to Human Survival Crisis What happens to humanity if Earth doesn’t stop at +2°C or +3°C—but eventually reaches +4°C and then +7°C? There is no scientifically established population number for a +7°C Earth. But the physical constraints are becoming increasingly […]
From Climate Denial to Climate Authoritarianism: Fossil Fascism, Ecofascism, and Petro-Masculinity
by Daniel Brouse Introdution 🌎 FROM CLIMATE DENIAL TO CLIMATE AUTHORITARIANISM Climate politics is evolving. As outright denial becomes harder to sustain, the narrative can shift from: “Climate change isn’t happening.”→ “Fixing it will cost too much.”→ “Blame the outsiders.”→ “Protect our resources.” This article examines four related concepts: 🔹 Climate denial & climate delay🔹 […]
When Climate Change Hits the Wallet: Insurance, Interest Rates, and Taxes
by Daniel Brouse What will change consumer behavior when it comes to climate change? Money. Insurance, interest rates, and taxes. Most consumers do not substantially change their behavior until doing nothing becomes cost prohibitive. For years, we assumed that climate change was unlikely to change consumer behavior in the near term. Climate change seemed too […]
Where Did the Hurricane Energy Go? Jersey Shore to the Outer Banks
by Daniel Brouse El Niño, Atlantic Niña, Teleconnections, and a Real-Time Climate Experiment on the Jersey Shore Tonight’s “homework” is to observe one of the most fascinating manifestations of chaos theory in real time: climate teleconnections. And, of course, it has a lot to do with the Butterfly Effect. The question is simple: What happens […]
Climate Denialism, Obfuscation, Suppression and Normalization
By Daniel Brouse Simplified Introduction UK Climate Security: From Suppression to the Domino Effect Climate change is increasingly moving from the category of environmental problem into the category of systemic risk. A recently reported UK national-security assessment warned that climate and ecological disruption can cascade across borders—affecting food security, economies, migration, and political stability. The […]
Climate Denialism and the Domino Effect
by Daniel Brouse From Climate Shock to Food Disruption, Economic Shock, Migration, Political Instability, and Conflict Abstract Climate change is often discussed as a sequence of individual environmental impacts: higher temperatures, droughts, floods, crop failures, sea-level rise, wildfires, and ecosystem degradation. This framing can obscure a more consequential property of the climate system: climate shocks […]
