More than 17,000 people were under evacuation orders in southern California on Tuesday as a wildfirethreatened suburban homes.
The wind-driven #Sandy fire was reported Monday in the hills above Simi Valley, about 30 miles (48km) north-west of Los Angeles.
By Tuesday morning, it had consumed more than 2 sq miles of dry brush and destroyed at least one home, according to the Ventura county fire dep…

I spent last week on Kangaroo Island, South Australia, and it really exceeded my expectations. Winter is supposed to be a good time to see wildlife and I was not disappointed. Among the many highlights was visiting a sea lion colony that is thought to house about 8% of the entire population of this endangered species. And since this is the Fediverse I should say that their reputation for making bad faith arguments in comment threads is totally undeserved.
"For the left, it’s an obvious example of public ownership and access. Italy’s large rump of former socialists and communists say that the perversity of capitalism is revealed by even shade being commercialised. For the activists of Mare Libero, freeing beaches isn’t a frivolous campaign, but a civil rights one informed by ecology and inclusion."
My second #ClimateDiary post:
Water butts all empty, as of last night. We carried dozens of watering cans full of water, both for the containers, and for the first time, for plants growing in our sandy soil, which were beginning to suffer. And of course, all the washing up water goes on the garden too.

Dunes absorb wave energy, reduce flooding, and help shield coastal communities from storms and rising seas.
They also provide habitat for plants, insects, birds, and small mammals, including federally protected species such as the least tern and the western snowy plover.
But dunes are also easy to erase.
They often sit on flat, sandy, highly desirable land near the ocean
— exactly the kind of land people like to build on.

Subsoil acidity causes long delays in inorganic carbon sequestration by Enhanced Weathering

https://arxiv.org/abs/2607.01835 https://arxiv.org/pdf/2607.01835 https://arxiv.org/html/2607.01835
arXiv:2607.01835v1 Announce Type: new
Abstract: While a looming atmospheric CO$_2$ overshoot calls for immediate carbon sequestration, delays associated to Enhanced Weathering (EW) carbon dioxide removal are being investigated. Topsoil acidity is already known to delay EW carbon sequestration, but subsoil acidity remains underexplored. Using century-long agricultural liming of formerly acidic heathland as a proxy for EW, this study provides empirical evidence of subsoil-imposed delays. Below such limed terrain, we observed a downward-progressing front of topsoil-produced alkalinity that still requires 30-100 years to penetrate the approximately 5 m thick acidic sandy unsaturated zone and reach the groundwater table. Subsoil acidity thus may cause beyond-reasonable delays, prohibiting EW as a viable short-term carbon capture strategy even on topsoils made non-acidic by preceding liming. When planning EW schemes, the amounts of stored acidic cations in top- and subsoil, as well as the rate and composition of infiltrating water, controlling the duration of the delay, require careful assessment.
