Climate change is forcing Kenya's wildlife officers to go on a crocodile hunt on the shores of Lake Baringo in a bid to curb growing human-wildlife conflict. Lakes in Kenya's Rift Valley have risen to levels not seen in at least half a century, pushing the reptiles towards human homes. Officers are tasked with trapping the animals and relocating them — an operation as tricky as it is dangerous.
How should we envision the African city of tomorrow? A city adapted to population growth and climate change, and freed from a colonial past that is still very much present in some places. Africa’s first pan-African architecture biennale, held this week in Kenya, is seeking to answer that question.

As trust in institutions wavers, experts say local, collective action is more effective in driving changeWildfires, excess deaths, hosepipe bans, school closures: this summer many British people have experienced the often devastating effects of the climate crisis in ways they had not before. In that sense, policymakers and climate experts have a unique opportunity to engage with the public about what needs to happen to better prepare the country for the years ahead. But as trust in institutions wavers – and yellowed, drought-stricken grass begins to recover – can the messaging cut through?This week, reflecting on a summer as “hot as hell”, the UN’s head of climate, Simon Stiell, said: “Climate is sometimes seen as a partisan issue, as territory in the culture wars. That is palpably false.” Continue reading...

Scientists have long warned of more intense extreme weather events in the decades to come due to our fast-warming climate. The question they are asking is how we are going to be better prepared as we become more prone to natural disasters.A group of researchers in Switzerland believe that artificial intelligence modeling could revolutionise forecasting systems.
Records from the past few decades show that, during this period, El Niño events have been frequent and often extreme. But is this normal, or is it the result of climate change? Corals can give us a clear indication.
Too many Democratic leaders are feeling comfortable waving off climate concerns, because of a feeling that it might be a political problem for them. That was exemplified this morning in the New York Times when center-right pundit Matt Yglesias issued a strident call for liberals to ‘support America’s oil and gas industry’.

How will they cope with the population boom and climate crisis? A question, the Kenya architecture biennale in Nairobi tried to answer.
"Sorry, but asking Jacob about AI extinction risk is like asking your AC guy about climate change," Hugging Face CEO Clement Delangue wrote on X.
These climate feedback loops, where climate change triggers more greenhouse gas emissions that in turn feed into even more climate change, could add 20 to 30 per cent more warming over current estimates for this century.

Nepal says nearly $7 billion is needed for it to recover from the deadly August 26 floods, arguing wealthier countries should treat the climate change-fuelled disaster as a "shared responsibility".
Historic data and predictions suggest cases will rise in East Africa and southern regions, while the threat may ease in West and Central Africa.

The Associated Press and, by extension, Fortune Magazine by republishing their piece, seem more interested in promoting the catastrophe narrative of climate change in any way they can, regardless of nuances. The climate comments in the article were completely unnecessary to tell the story of increased human-bear encounters, and only serve to advance the outlets’ political climate slant.

SMD is the moisture the soil must make up until it is at capacity, with very dry conditions over most of England and WalesWhen the ground is thoroughly wet, after excess rainwater has run off it is said to be at field capacity. Meteorologists describe drought in terms of soil moisture deficit (SMD) from field capacity. The SMD is a measure of how thirsty the soil is, expressed as how many millimetres of rain it would take to top it up to field capacity.In southern England, the SMD tends to hover around zero in winter when fields are wet. In summer it may be about 100mm, going up to 150mm or more in a dry year. The extreme of dryness, when soil has no water accessible to plants, is known as the permanent wilting point or PWP.
