    ๐ŸšจAlert!๐Ÿšจ As anticipated last week the forecast #Greenland melt event has occurred โ€“ just look at that spike! Unusually warm temperatures causing significant melt and #Arctic change means global risks for everyone. Find out more - arcticrisk.org/alerts #ClimateChange

    WARNING. NEXT WEEK. A significant heatwave is expected throughout #Canada next week bringing temperatures 10+ยฐC above normal. This #heatwave is notable for several reasonsโ€”notably that it is occurring so early in the season and during a year in which we are expecting #ElNino. 1/

    Why cold weather doesnโ€™t mean climate change is fake: โ€˜A record-breaking cold snap is relentlessly descending on parts of the U.S. this month. It spawned from a split polar vortex that sent cold, #Arctic air across the continent.

    1. NEWS JUST IN! The #Arctic IS warming faster than we thought. In fact FOUR times as fast as the global average. A report published today in @Nature, states that bet' 1979 and 2021, the Arctic has warmed an average of 4x times the global average... MORE

    ๐Ÿšจ Arctic Alarm ๐Ÿšจ Early warning of the 1st heatwave forecast for #Greenland around Jun 1. Temps could reach +15ยฐC (+59ยฐF) above average in some regions of the ice sheet. Possibly signalling the start of the 2023 #Arctic melt season or a repeat of the extreme heatwave resulting

    We were very privileged to show HRH Princess Eugenie and friend of Arctic Basecamp @elliegoulding our #Greenland iceberg today at our camp at #COP26. Highlighting #ArcticMelt
    Princess Eugenie has quietly spent the past three days at #COP26 meeting with activists, researchers and environmental orgs. She shared some highlights on IG, including her time with @BlueMarineF, @ArcticBasecamp (with pal @elliegoulding), @EIB and marine biologist @SylviaEarle.
