One system is already bringing storms to the Leeward Islands and could impact Puerto Rico with flooding, while the second wave has the potential to strike the U.S. within the next…

Douglas McIntyre, Editor-in-Chief at Climate Crisis 24/7, reported that AI’s rapid growth threatens to undermine climate progress achieved in the past decade. While tech giants like Microsoft and OpenAI pledged to achieve net zero by 2035, McIntyre noted that these commitments were made before the massive energy needs of AI data centers became clear. With…

Douglas McIntyre, Editor-in-Chief at Climate Crisis 24/7, reported that Michigan’s Howell Township may soon host the state’s largest data center, backed by $1 billion in investment. While cheap land makes the project attractive, McIntyre highlighted major uncertainties—such as where the massive energy, water, and workforce needs will be met in a county of only 10,000…

Douglas McIntyre, Editor-in-Chief at Climate Crisis 24/7, reported that Buffalo is positioning itself as a climate refuge, attracting people leaving areas like Florida and New Orleans. The city’s temperate weather, freshwater from Lake Erie, and relative safety from violent storms make it appealing. Harvard refers to this trend as “climate migration.” However, McIntyre noted that…

Douglas McIntyre, Editor-in-Chief at Climate Crisis 24/7, reported that a federal judge granted Ørsted permission to resume construction on the Revolution Wind project off Rhode Island after it was halted by the Trump administration. While the injunction allows work to continue for now, the administration has been aggressively targeting wind energy projects nationwide. McIntyre emphasized…

Douglas McIntyre, Editor-in-Chief at Climate Crisis 24/7, reported that governments worldwide are expanding fossil fuel production despite pledges to reduce reliance on coal, gas, and oil. A review of global plans shows that by 2030, fossil fuel output could more than double the safe levels needed to limit warming to 1.5°C. McIntyre warns this expansion…

Douglas McIntyre, Editor-in-Chief at Climate Crisis 24/7, reported that Hurricane Gabriel has intensified into a Category 3 storm near Bermuda, marking the second major hurricane of the season.

Douglas McIntyre, Editor-in-Chief at Climate Crisis 24/7, reported that America’s rivers are heating up rapidly, with heat waves in streams becoming more frequent, intense, and long-lasting. Based on a new study published in PNAS, these rising temperatures threaten species reliant on cooler waters. Researchers attribute the trend largely to human-driven climate change, dwindling snowpacks, and…

Douglas McIntyre, Editor-in-Chief at Climate Crisis 24/7, reported that the U.N. believes artificial intelligence could help fight climate change by improving energy efficiency, supporting carbon reduction, and aiding in climate diplomacy. However, U.N. leaders warn that AI’s massive energy demands pose new risks and must be carefully regulated. The challenge is to minimize AI’s dangers…
