How a Warming Arctic Could Disrupt Everything from Weather to Food Security

A split-image representation of globalization and its impact on climate change. The left side depicts a smoky industrial scene with factories emitting pollution into a hazy sky. The right side features a clear blue ocean with small islands and coastal infrastructure, symbolizing vulnerable communities at risk from rising sea levels. At the center, a vibrant Earth emphasizes the global interconnectedness of these issues. The contrasting imagery highlights the dual nature of globalization—both its environmental challenges and its potential for fostering solutions

An animated collage of humorous climate change protest signs and memes. The images feature creative and witty slogans such as ‘Humans destroy climate, climate destroys humans,’ ‘Me and the Earth having a meltdown,’ and ‘I’m sure the dinosaurs thought they had time too.’ Overlaying the collage is a cartoon Earth with a thermometer in its mouth, symbolizing global warming. The visuals highlight the use of humor to address serious environmental issues

A digitally edited image of a massive Antarctic iceberg floating in the ocean, with stormy clouds and distant mountains in the background. Superimposed on the iceberg is a cartoon-style pipe system, symbolizing the concept of “Antarctic plumbing”—possibly referring to the movement of meltwater beneath ice sheets or human-engineered solutions related to polar melt. The image blends natural elements with industrial symbolism

The Antarctic Plumbing Problem That’s Speeding Up Ice Melt
A digitally edited image of a kelp forest underwater scene, with several sharks swimming in the background. In the foreground, two distinct sets of jaws are overlaid: on the left, a traditional shark jaw with sharp triangular teeth, and on the right, a unique jaw with flat, plate-like structures resembling those of a durophagous (hard-prey-eating) species. The image contrasts different feeding adaptations in marine predators.

Antarctica has a hidden plumbing problem. And it’s speeding up ice melt faster than expected. Here’s what scientists just found: • Subglacial rivers shift over time → Ice flow accelerates. • Water exits in the worst spots → Melts glaciers from below. • Most models ignore this → Sea level rise is underestimated. Sometimes it’s what’s under the ice that matters most. Read the story in the Link in the bio
Forgotten shark jaws just changed ocean science. Forgotten shark jaws just changed ocean science. Decades-old specimens are now revealing shark diets. Here’s why this matters: • Chemicals didn’t ruin the data → Isotopes still readable. • Museum jaws = hidden archives → Rare insights unlocked. • We can study the past → And plan better for the future. Old jaws. New science. Big impact. https://open.substack.com/pub/climateages/p/forgotten-shark-jaws-are-now-a-goldmine?r=2hlav&utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=web&showWelcomeOnShare=true
Can overfishing help save an ecosystem? Australia Can overfishing help save an ecosystem? Australia is using it to fight invasive sea urchins. Here’s why it works: • Urchins destroy kelp forests → Marine life vanishes. • No natural predators → Populations explode unchecked. • Fishing keeps numbers below the tipping point → Kelp can recover. A surprising conservation strategy—backed by science. Full story in the link in bio.
