Drought in the Netherlands: precipitation deficit for the season reached above 300 mm, a rare value, 150% above peak in a mediaan year.
Now forecasted to stabilise thanks to a bit of rain.
Worst in the west of the country.

The water flow in the Rhine keeps plummeting. It had never been below 780 m³/s in summer. When we were at 650, an expert told us it couldn't go much lower. Now we're at 572 m³/s, the lowest on record, even below the ice blocked flow in the winter of 1929.

I remember discussions about US subsidies for CCS as far back as 2003 - accompanied by promises that this was THE SOLUTION. The technology for carbon capture is much older. And it still is not "mature" as a means of addressing #ClimateChange. Why do governments keep wasting money on this? None of the projects have delivered as promised.

Seeing the beautiful and still impressive Norwegian glaciers, it's sad to know they're rapidly retreating. One sign said "If we manage to keep global warming below 1.5°C, around 25-30% of the glaciers can be preserved."
