The author wrote that a new study had examined 20,736 scientific publications on climate tipping points and estimated that several could be crossed at around 1.5 degrees of warming. They named permafrost thaw, the Greenland Ice Sheet and the North Atlantic Subpolar Gyre, saying this could happen “any time soon.”
The author highlighted a Politico article about the linked tipping points of the subpolar gyre (SPG) and the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC), describing them as major climate risks. They wrote that the SPG could collapse within the next 20 years.
"This treaty has kept the world from going past the tipping points. It's delayed warming by up to 45 years." 🌍 Durwood Zaelke, President of @IGSD_DC, on how the Montreal Protocol phased out nearly 100 ozone-depleting chemicals and avoided as much warming as CO2 causes. https://t.co/nymoWr9PRf #
Periodaccio per Trump ... Uno spiraglio di sole per il mondo. Contenuto AI---I modelli predittivi e i sondaggi per le elezioni di metà mandato del 3 novembre 2026 confermano che i Democratici mantengono un netto vantaggio per il controllo della Camera dei Rappresentanti, mentre la contesa per il Senato rimane estremamente serrata, sebbene orientata a favore dei Democratici nelle ultime rilevazioni. I dati e le proiezioni variano a seconda delle diverse fonti di analisi: Proiezioni per la Camera dei Rappresentanti (U.S. House) I Democratici hanno bisogno di guadagnare solo 3 seggi per strappare la maggioranza ai Repubblicani. Attualmente, i principali previsori indicano uno scenario fortemente favorevole al ribaltamento della Camera: • Decision Desk HQ (28 settembre 2026): Assegna ai Democratici una probabilità del 75% di vincere la Camera, con una proiezione di 234 seggi totali. • Silver Bulletin / Nate Silver (28 settembre 2026): Mostra un forte incremento per i Democratici, che guidano la media dei sondaggi generici per il Congresso con un distacco di D+9,2 punti tra i probabili elettori. • Polymarket (Mercato di scommesse, 29 settembre 2026): Riflette il consenso degli scommettitori con una stima implicita molto alta a favore della conquista democratica della Camera. Il Cook Political Report ha recentemente spostato 15 sfide congressuali a favore dei Democratici. Proiezioni per il Senato (U.S. Senate) Il Senato è considerato il terreno di scontro più incerto, poiché i Repubblicani difendono una maggioranza di 53 a 47. Tuttavia, l'attuale indice di gradimento del Presidente Trump (attestato intorno al 33% secondo i sondaggi Reuters/Ipsos e al 37% per NBC News) sta complicando la difesa repubblicana in stati storicamente favorevoli: • Decision Desk HQ (28 settembre 2026): Indica una situazione in bilico ma favorevole ai Democratici, stimando al 54% la probabilità che questi ultimi ottengano il controllo del Senato (con un'ipotesi di 51 seggi). • Polymarket (29 settembre 2026): Gli scommettitori attribuiscono ai Democratici una probabilità implicita del 62,5% di conquistare il Senato. Il mercato sulla combinazione del bilanciamento del potere ("Balance of Power") quota l'ipotesi di un "Democratic Sweep" (vittoria democratica in entrambe le camere) al 62%, mentre la combinazione "Senato ai Repubblicani e Camera ai Democratici" si attesta al 31%. • Silver Bulletin (28 settembre 2026): Evidenzia che i candidati democratici registrano lievi vantaggi nei sondaggi in sei stati chiave considerati "tipping-point": Texas (D +3,4), Maine (D +2,5), Ohio (D +4,5), Iowa (D +2,0), Michigan (D +3,2) e Alaska (D +2,4). L'andamento di fine settembre delinea una situazione strutturalmente difficile per la coalizione repubblicana guidata da Trump, specialmente alla Camera, mentre per il Senato i margini nei singoli stati chiave rimangono ridotti e suscettibili di variazioni nell'ultimo mese di campagna elettorale
Early stages of Greenland disintegration. Soon, tipping point will be crossed (somewhere between 1.5-2.0 of global warming). #Greenland #ClimateCrisis #GlobalWarming #GL
Esta é a notícia mais importante dos últimos anos. O famoso Tipping point. Daqui em diante é escalada em cima de escalada e no fim um vai se foder. Não duvido que Mendonça meta na cadeia aliado do Alexandre ainda nesta semana. Não tem outra saída. Pegue sua 🍿 https://t.co/t8wK4tUrqc #Notícias #Política #Brasil
More warming simply means more tipping points crossed. Also, the more we know, the worse it gets. Keep in mind, "alarmists" are always at least 10 years ahead of the crowd.

How Feminism Turned Government Into a Daycare For decades, we heard “the future is female.” That future is here—if not in the way people expected. The slogan surfaced in the 1970s among feminist and lesbian activists, resurfaced in 2015 after designer Rachel Burks rediscovered a 1975 photo, and then spread through merchandise and mainstream politics. By 2016 it was used by Hillary Clinton supporters; after her loss, Clinton embraced it. But the real story isn’t the phrase—it’s the institutional shift. Helen Andrews, in “The Great Feminization,” notes that feminism is often framed as progress through votes, universities, or jobs. Yet the decisive tipping point came later, especially from 2015 to 2020, when whole institutions began turning female. The numbers show it: in 1974, women were 10% of New York Times reporters; now they’re about 55%. The Atlantic’s editorial staff shifted from 53% male in 2013 to 36% male in 2024. This reaches beyond journalism: medical schools became majority-female in 2019; women formed the majority of the college-educated workforce that year, became a majority of college instructors by 2023, and now make up about 46% of managers. This isn’t just individuals moving into male-coded fields. It’s institutions changing with their demographics—shifting preferences, priorities, and norms. In many ways, feminism has already won access; now the question is what happens when institutions are increasingly shaped by women. We haven’t studied this before. We’re the experiment.
Tipping was awkward enough in UK when the general rule was 10% at a restaurant, plus anxiety about tipping the hairdresser, babysitter or food-delivery driver. Now, with tipping suggested ever more frequently, US-style, it has become a minefield to Britons https://t.co/4CzSQ1kCcd #Tipping #UKDining #CulturalDifferences #UK #US
Btw. I'm not aware of any models suggesting a "sudden collapse" of the #AMOC. The very serious real risk is that it soon passes a point of no return (tipping point) where it shutting down over the next 50-100 years becomes practically unstoppable. https://t.co/ZQPWz01gmf #AMOC #ClimateChange #TippingPoint #Thetweetdoesnotmentionanyspecificcountries.Therefore #therearenocountrycodestoreturn.

We moeten het weer over de tippingpoint hebben
In zijn nieuwste boek We moeten het weer over de tippingpoint hebben onderzoekt Malcolm Gladwell opnieuw het fenomeen van het omslagpunt, maar met een focus op lokale 'asociale epidemieën' zoals de opiatencrisis en zelfmoorden, en legt hij de nadruk op de rol van de omgeving in het ontstaan van deze grote sociale veranderingen. #TippingPoint #MalcolmGladwell #SocialeEpidemieën

The article explores the growing influence of American tipping culture on countries like Iceland and Mexico, where it traditionally hasn't been customary, and highlights the rising expectation for higher tips in the US amidst changing economic conditions and the increasing use of digital payment systems that prompt gratuity. #TippingCulture #HospitalityIndustry #GlobalTrends
This BBC documentary by Jonathan Renouf on abrupt climate change due to ocean circulation tipping is one of the best. From 1999, with top experts like Overpeck, Alley & the late Wally Broecker, it's chillingly current: that risk looks much higher now. https://t.co/ATcIdnZuWT #ClimateChange #OceanCirculation #Documentary #Nospecificcountrycodesarementionedinthetweet.
