Two people would be killed, dozens injured and over four hundred thousand people evacuated to the island of Hainan in southern China (where there are popular tourist destinations) due to the super typhoon "Yagi", also called Enteng by the locals, which with wind gusts that exceeded two hundred and forty kilometers per hour was classified as the second most powerful tropical cyclone of the year. There is also talk of torrential rainfall with damage and inconvenience for the population, also affected by the strong vortex the Guangdong; the authorities who had already given instructions for evacuations have also sent rescue. It should be noted changing the subject but remaining on naturalistic issues that a study in Canada would have shown that the industry related to the cutting of trees to obtain timber is the third for CO2 emissions for the country's economy.

The temperatures monitored in the summer months from June to August would be the highest ever (the month of July is practically on par with last year and therefore record-breaking), the great energy accumulated can only cause extensive damage all over the planet and disastrous extreme phenomena, then for example in Europe even rather rare climatic events could become more frequent such as a kind of sudden tornadoes (masses of air that descend rapidly from top to bottom with an effect typical of a strong vortex such as a tornado). To be noted changing the subject the wave of bad weather that affected Italy with a missing person in Piedmont region, two collapsed bridges, flooding with inconvenience in Milan (Lombardy), then a whirlwind in Tuscany and a cloudburst with hail in Bari (Puglia); there is also talk of red alert in Veneto and various less intense alerts in other regions.

The tropical storm "Yagi", after lashing the Philippines causing casualties, damage and leaving mounds of mud and debris in the affected areas that the population is still shoveling is heading towards China and has gained strength off Vietnam; now the strong vortex is classified as a typhoon and according to weather forecasts it is heading towards the Chinese island of Hainan (with winds of over one hundred and sixty kilometers per hour and wind gusts that could reach two hundred and twenty) and then enter the Gulf of Tonkin, where it will perhaps weaken slightly. To be noted changing the subject but remaining on naturalistic themes the recent cloudburst that affected Rome, there is talk of damage to the Arch of Constantine with two blocks of travertine collapsed due to a lightning strike that would have hit the metal scaffolding used for the restoration of the well-known valuable monument.

An eighteen-day maiden transatlantic voyage from the port of Le Havre in France to Newark in the United States would have been carried out by a cargo ship propelled by sails and apparently the classic navigation with wind thrust and therefore free propulsion is of interest again which allows not to pollute and save on the purchase of hydrocarbons which, for example in the event of a shipwreck, can also become a serious environmental threat. In this case the eighty-one-metre-long thousand-tonne sailing cargo ship was initially propelled by engines before the two gigantic double sails could provide the appropriate thrust. It is estimated that almost three percent of greenhouse gas emissions into the atmosphere (about one billion tons of carbon dioxide each year) are due to motor navigation.

At least fourteen people have died in areas north of the Philippines due to a tropical storm called "Yagi" characterized by intense rainfall with consequent flooding and landslides, sometimes suspended classes at school and activities in the affected areas; then there is talk of inconvenience for the population as often happens in these cases with many people forced to move partially immersed in water. Warnings of beware of the storm have been issued for much of the more populated Louzon region, including the large city of Manila where all schools and government activities have been suspended. Rescuers intervened with rubber dinghies to help people in distress and numerous evacuations were carried out, maritime navigation was temporarily suspended in some ports, then ship collisions occurred.

The resources made available to developing countries in order to enable them to cope with climate change for which they are minimally responsible and sometimes severely affected by extreme events that were unthinkable until a few years ago are scarce, at least according to a document that should be presented in Baku next month which shows different positions taken by rich countries three months after the COP29 meeting in Azerbaijan (a country with large economic interests linked to the exploitation of fossil fuels) in which an agreement will have to be found. There is talk of trying to bridge the various demands, for example the European Union requires that China, being the world's largest polluter and the second largest economy, contribute to increase the available resources despite being classified among the developing countries.

A typhoon called "Shenshen" weakened to a tropical storm would have caused damage and inconvenience, there is talk of at least six victims, two missing and hundreds of thousands of homes left without electricity supply; the island of Kyushu is particularly affected by the strong vortex with violent gusts of wind, heavy rainfall, warnings for possible landslides and high-speed train runs have been suspended (in some cases also between Tokyo and Osaka in other areas of the country). Is try to identify two other people who are believed to have lost their lives, while as always the researchers focus attention on climate change and its consequences due to a warmer planet that fuels these phenomena. To be noted changing the subject but remaining on naturalistic issues twenty-four victims in western Yemen due to floods.

Only India, China and the United States would have released more carbon dioxide into the atmosphere than the amount of climate-changing gas released by the fires of the boreal forests in Canada last year, at least according to a study that shows that these fires to the detriment of vegetation have reached records well above those monitored in previous years due especially to an increasingly hot and dry climate that favors the advance of fires, with not very comforting forecasts for the coming decades from this point of view; then this type of emissions had not been taken into account by the Paris agreements to prevent global temperatures from rising above one and a half degrees Celsius. Emissions from human activities should be balanced with the ability of forests (and seas) to absorb them, but this goal now does not seem achievable.

There would be three victims and one missing in southwest Japan due to the typhoon called "Shanshan" characterized by winds of almost two hundred kilometers per hour with wind gusts that can reach two hundred and fifty. There is also talk of damage with the strong vortex that is still affecting the country after having lashed the coasts, then canceled flights and considerable inconvenience for the population. To be noted changing the subject but remaining on naturalistic issues the danger of spillage of hydrocarbons into the sea in the roadstead of Porticello in the province of Palermo in Italy from the tanks of the sailing ship sunk in recent days, the failure to activate the ship's safety systems (in theory unsinkable) is being investigated; in fact, a large amount of water could have entered from hatches left open despite the presence of a fairly rare extreme phenomenon.

After affecting the northern regions and in particular Lombardy where there have been for example hailstorms with large grains, the wave of bad weather has moved to the south, there is talk of two missing in the province of Caserta with roads transformed into torrents due to cloudbursts, then cars dragged by mud and some houses evacuated, inconveniences also in several areas of the Campania region. To be noted changing the subject but remaining on naturalistic issues the umpteenth alarm given at a conference in the Tonga islands by international authorities regarding the rise in the level of the Oceans with disastrous consequences for all the islands of the Pacific and with increasing rates of rise that can only bring a strong imbalance to all the ecosystems of the planet, a global disaster as is well known caused by the uncontrolled and uncontrolled use of fossil fuels to power human activities.
