Imbalance in the amount of heat absorbed by the Earth With eleven consecutive years of global average temperatures hitting record highs (which cannot be considered an anomalous causality) the planet would have absorbed greenhouse gas emissions and trapped excessive amounts of heat, resulting in a so-called energy imbalance and there is concern about a further increase in temperatures with the arrival of a phase driven by the global current "El Nino". For example in 2025 record levels of heat were reached, impacting global temperatures in ways that could last for thousands of years, then according to international organizations the planet is essentially pushed beyond its limits with every climate indicator showing red alert putting it in a state of emergency. For the first time reference is made to the climate report, the percentage at which energy enters the climate system and then leaves it. e-mail: info@salutary.eu Tel: +39 338 1809310 Date: 24/03/2026

Record heat in California on average for the period With over forty-four degrees Celsius recorded in a desert area near the city of Yuma on the border between California and Arizona experts speak of a record for the month of March, for what is an event that occurs once in half a millennium and in reality can be linked to climate changes caused by humans. Twenty-nine degrees in the city of San Francisco which at this time of year is usually chilly and a bit foggy is a record figure for the month of March and these abnormal temperatures extend from the southern coast of California to Las Vegas in the desert. There is little doubt that these extreme events are caused by global warming resulting from the indiscriminate use of fossil fuels, then the plants and trees were already in bloom (in winter), the vegetation had been growing lushly for some time fed by the copious rains in December and January. e-mail: info@salutary.eu Tel: +39 338 1809310 Date: 21/03/2026 n: 6210 Wave of bad weather over the United States A climate characterized by rather chaotic extreme events could affect over one hundred million people from coast to coast in the United States with gusts of wind (with the danger that if particular conditions occur they could fuel potential tornadoes) on the East Coast and unusual summer-like heat in California. A storm has caused power outages for over two hundred sixty thousand utilities and businesses in the Midwest, then there are reports of thousands of canceled flights and announcements of delays, a possible blizzard in Wisconsin and Michigan, disruptions in several states due to wind chills. Changing the topic but staying on natural phenomena at least fifty victims and over one hundred twenty missing people have recently been reported in southern Ethiopia due to a landslide caused by heavy rainfall that is common in the rainy season. e-mail: info@salutary.eu Tel: +39 338 1809310 Date: 17/03/2026 n: 6206 Considerations on the use of more polluting fuels With a potential crisis in the transport of fossil fuels due to conflicts some argue that there is a risk of using more polluting fuels to cope with shortages or because prices are rising and it seems that there are already countries where this environmentally unfriendly situation is occurring. moreover it should be considered that it can also have repercussions in the agricultural production sector and on food security; for example cooking with fuels not suitable for the purpose releases toxic chemical components besides polluting the environment. To report changing topic but remaining on nature-related issues that in Queensland in Australia there are complaints from residents who cannot return to their homes in areas recently evacuated due to floods caused by heavy rainfall, during a period that has been very rainy with damage and inconvenience. e-mail: info@salutary.eu Tel: +39 338 1809310 Date: 13/03/2026 n: 6203 Difficulties in Peru due to recent floods Due to torrential rainfall that recently affected large areas in the south of the country there are reports of difficulties for the population dealing with repeated floods and landslides, for example the Arequipa region was particularly affected with thousands of houses swept away by rivers of mud and debris due to an extreme phenomenon called "Coastal El Nino" which also causes sea level rise along the coasts. To report moving the attention to other scenarios yet another eruption of the Kilauea volcano in Hawaii with volcanic material projected over long distances onto some inhabited areas forcing the partial closure of a section of highway; then in Italy a magnitude 5.9 tremor with an epicenter at great depth near Anacapri in the Gulf of Naples did not cause damage, but the earthquake did not go unnoticed due to the peculiarity of this rare phenomenon. e-mail: info@salutary.eu Tel: +39 338 1809310 Date: 11/03/2026 n: 6201 Landslide in a mine in the Democratic Republic of Congo There are reportedly at least three hundred victims due to heavy rainfall in the Democratic Republic of Congo resulting in a landslide that affected the Rubaya area where there are mines extracting for example coltan used in the manufacture of smartphones, tablets, and computers. This is the third time in less than two months that a landslide has occurred with a total toll of about seven hundred victims, then there is also talk of the danger of further landslides because the ground is still unstable in an area where other serious incidents of this kind have occurred, with precarious working conditions and in theory with artisanal extraction. To report on a different topic but still related to natural events eight victims were reported in southern Michigan in USA due to a tornado that recently affected Branch county near the Union city. e-mail: info@salutary.eu Tel: +39 338 1809310 Date: 09/03/2026 n: 6199 Probably underestimated sea level rise Many studies (apparently about ninety percent) regarding sea level rise are based on static models without taking into account waves, currents, wind, tides, temperature changes, so according to researchers the actual level of rise is probably underestimated. We are talking about tens of millions more people who could be threatened by sea level rise, moreover in many cases it does not concern a hypothetical future but the current reality and it does not only change the retreating coastline but also the real lives of people forced to abandon their homes. The authorities planning actions to counteract damages related to sea level rise might have an incomplete picture of the situation; in fact, the flooded areas will be much wider than previously thought and the real impact on the population should already be considered. e-mail: info@salutary.eu Tel: +39 338 1809310 Date: 05/03/2026 n: 6196 Record rainfall in February in France According to monitored data February in France was on average the rainiest month since 1959, with reports of forty days of continuous rainfall surpassing the record of thirty-two in 2023, particularly affecting the southwest of the country due to consequent flooding. There were a series of storms and severe weather along the Atlantic axis favored by two anticyclones centered over Africa and Northern Europe. As usual climate change plays a role with a warmer atmosphere containing more water vapor thereby increasing the potential for intense rainfall (in some areas since January 1 the equivalent of an entire winter's worth of rain or even more). To report on another note but still related to natural events that there were thirty-two victims and dozens missing in Brazil's Minas Gerais state in the southwest of the country due to a landslide caused by heavy rainfall. e-mail: info@salutary.eu Tel: +39 338 1809310 Date: 26/02/2026 n: 6190 Disruptions due to snowstorm in the northeastern U.S. Millions of people have been forced to stay home due to hazardous weather conditions with icy wind gusts and snowfall that have covered vast areas of the northeastern United States with a thick layer, emergency declarations from Delaware to Massachusetts and hundreds of thousands of people left without power due to fallen power lines. Visibility is often extremely low due to the blizzard conditions, thousands of flights have been canceled; there are reports of a very strong cyclone due to a drastic drop in atmospheric pressure of at least twenty-four millibars in one day along the Northeast coast, then weather forecasts for the southeastern part of the Boston-Providence corridor also warn of a potentially very intense storm. Disruptions for the population are inevitable forcing people to move on foot on sometimes impassable roads. e-mail: info@salutary.eu Tel: +39 338 1809310 Date: 24/02/2026 n: 6188 Questions about a tragic avalanche in California The investigative inquiries launched in the Sierra Nevada following a recent avalanche that caused the deaths of eight skiers and left one missing regarding possible negligence by the company organizing the ski trip despite the arrival of a severe storm, raise in general the questions about other tragic events that have occurred in various mountainous regions of the world; in fact, usually a simple avalanche warning is enough to deter skiers from what could be a dangerous descent, then with climate change the snow cover is often less compact and unstable. To report changing the topic but remaining with natural themes the understandable complaints of the survivors of the disastrous floods in Sumatra three months ago who had to undertake "religious fasts" while living in makeshift shelters with high daytime temperatures that then become freezing at night. e-mail: info@salutary.eu Tel: +39 338 1809310 Date: 21/02/2026 n: 6186 Ambience and Nature * The author doesn't assume some kind of responsibility for the bad use of the articles councils (all rights are reserved) |
