Jet streams are fast flowing, narrow air currents. The main jet streams flow west to east around the globe.
Because of #climate collapse, the northern polar jet stream becomes more variable. A stratospheric polar vortex disruption is linked with extreme cold winter weather across parts of Asia and North America, including the Feb. 2021 North American cold wave.

Anyway, #AMOC (the main ocean current system in the Atlantic Ocean) currently offers 12°C to Ireland:

Global climate change has different regional impacts; its effects are already noticeable today. Mankind will need to adapt to those future changes. To investigate possible regional climate changes in Europe in the 21. Century and to develop adaption strategies, regional climate simulations are performed. The Climate Service Center Germany (GERICS) is involved in the development of various models and methods to provide local climate change information. The simulated model results are stored at the DKRZ and can be downloaded from there through the ESGF (esgf-data.dkrz.de). DKRZ and GERICS have jointly produced animated visualizations showing the projected key changes in temperature and precipitation for Europe during the 21. Century.
#Cattle husbandry emits #greenhouse gas.
For example:
* South America and the Indian subcontinent breed most bovines who emit most methane.
* China and the Middle East produce too much livestock methane in regard to their bovine headcounts.
Emissions of #methane from livestock digestion per world region:

It is a joy to discover remote paths with nobody on sight.
No data plan with @organicmaps
I download the regional map in advance over Wifi and then use no cell communication.

6/ Many people know about the linguistic situation in Catalonia. It’s one of the purest linguistic examples of diglossia (two dialects or languages are used simultaneously by one community), but there are actually three officially recognised languages in Catalonia.
Catalan, Spanish and Aranese.
Aranese is a dialect of Occitan spoken in the Val d’Aran. It has protected official status, and it is the only area of Occitania where the language is protected.
In tropical forests, the most vital function of protected areas is limiting roads and road-related environmental disruption.
