Excerpt from this story from EcoWatch:
A new report from a team of international scientists has revealed harsh realities on Earth, with 25 of 35 planetary vital signs reaching record extremes. Without immediate action, scientists warn that these extremes could threaten life on Earth.
In the new study, published in the journal BioScience, scientists presented a stark look at the state of the climate crisis.
“We are on the brink of an irreversible climate disaster. This is a global emergency beyond any doubt. Much of the very fabric of life on Earth is imperiled. We are stepping into a critical and unpredictable new phase of the climate crisis,” the scientists wrote.
Scientists use 35 different planetary vital signs to track the effects of climate change, including human population, global tree cover loss, meat production per capita, energy consumption, carbon dioxide emissions, ice mass changes, glacier thickness and more.
Twenty-five of these vital signs are already breaking records, including human population, coal and oil consumption, ruminant livestock populations, U.S. heat-related deaths, carbon emissions, methane levels, fossil fuel subsidies, ocean heat content changes, ocean acidification, glacier thickness and tree cover loss, among others.
According to the scientists, the human population is increasing by around 200,000 people per day, while ruminant livestock populations are increasing by around 170,000 animals per day. They also found that fossil fuel consumption increased 1.5% in 2023.
A separate report, the 2024 Forest Declaration Assessment, recently confirmed a decrease in tree cover, with 6.3 million hectares of land deforested in 2023.
Although the scientists did find that renewable energy consumption increased in 2023, renewables are still not overtaking fossil fuel demand enough to limit severe impacts of climate change.
Further, scientists warned that atmospheric carbon dioxide and methane concentrations have reached record highs, the average surface temperature of the Earth is at a record high, ocean acidity has broken records, ocean heating is at an all-time high, and global sea levels are at the highest amounts ever recorded.
On the other hand, Greenland and Antarctic ice masses have reached record lows, and the average global glacier thickness is at an all-time low.
We are already seeing the devastating impacts of these vital signs hitting extremes, with a 117% increase in heat deaths in the U.S. from 1999 to 2023. Last year, areas across Asia experienced deadly heat waves that killed thousands of people, the report authors warned.
Now, the U.S. is facing two back-to-back hurricanes amid rising ocean temperatures, which have nearly doubled in the past two decades, a recent report from EU Copernicus found.

Permaculture Instructor Andrew millison explains how trees are connected to water in the atmosphere as well as water flowing through the landscape. This video articulates the amazing role that trees play to ecosystem and climate health, and how their removal causes the drought-flood cycle.
There may be some questions about the scientific validity of the concept that forests attract rain. Here are a number of peer reviewed scientific articles to support the hypothesis which suggests that forest cover plays a much greater role in determining rainfall than previously recognized. They explain how forested regions generate large-scale flows in atmospheric water vapor.

Another important concept from the video is that condensation and evaporation in large areas of forest causes moist air to flow to land
From the abstract of the article below: “ Intense condensation associated with high evaporation from natural forest cover maintains regions of low atmospheric pressure on land. This causes moist air to flow from ocean to land, which compensates the river runoff….High evaporation and large extent of natural forests guarantee both a stable and high throughput hydrological cycle. Forests protect a continent against devastating floods, droughts, hurricanes, and tornadoes. Sustaining natural forests is a sound strategy for water security and climate stabilization.”

Bringing Wetlands to the Carbon Market
Recently, there has been a lot of attention directed towards the role of wetlands in climate change mitigation, perhaps to make up for the fact that generally speaking they have largely been ignored by mainstream carbon offsetting programmes. For example, wetlands hardly get a mention in the UN collaborative initiative on Reducing Emissions from Deforestation and Forest Degradation in Developing Countries (REDD). To the present time, a degree of progress has been made in developing methodologies for wetlands carbon offsetting projects of potential use in generating carbon credits. One of the most recent developments in the field is a unique study reported in the March issue of BioScience, the journal of the American Institute of Biological Sciences (AIBS). The study looks into the environmental benefits of created wetlands and it may prove to be useful downstream as a model for wetland reclamation or replacement projects.
The study was conducted as a 15-year experiment aimed at developing two one-hectare wetlands in the state of Ohio, to be created by pumping water from the nearby Olentangy River. One of the wetlands was planted manually, with vegetation in the other being left to develop naturally. Bioscience reported the study as suggesting that wetlands created to replace losses due to environmental degradation or land development can also take carbon from the atmosphere and thus assist in mitigating the greenhouse effect. The study indicated that while the manually planted wetland showed more variety, the naturally generated one took more carbon from the atmosphere. In any event, the study provides a basis for future wetland restoration projects and may be particularly useful in determining the degree of human intervention necessary for such projects to be successful.
As noted at the outset, wetlands in general have largely been overlooked by climate policy impact decision-makers, especially with regards to compliance markets for carbon credits. Yet wetland areas provide valuable ecosystem services, notably biodiversity maintenance, flood support and storm mitigation and, in the case of freshwater wetlands such as peatlands, they even supply drinking water. And to the extent that wetland areas act as carbon sinks, their loss can have serious environmental consequences. Happily however, the ability of wetlands to sequester carbon might provide the very incentive for their restoration inasmuch as projects aimed at preserving and restoring wetlands are a potential source of carbon credits.
Pertinently, the American Carbon Registry (ACR), a voluntary offset programme, announced in January 2012 that it was planning to approve a modular methodology for deltaic wetland restoration. According to the ACR press release, the new methodology, which is to be applied to restoration activities for degraded wetlands of the Mississippi delta, might in the future be expanded to wetland restoration in other regions.
The option for earning carbon credits through wetland restoration and conservation (WRC) projects is also being explored by the Verified Carbon Standard (VSC). Its website indicates that new requirements for crediting the climate benefits of WRC activities are currently under development and will be released in mid-2012. The purpose of those requirements is to create a broad new category for carbon credit projects from all wetland areas, including freshwater tidal coastal wetlands, mangroves, salt marshes and peatlands.
Peatlands in particular are already covered by the existing VCS requirements for peatland rewetting and conservation (PRC), a classification which has been an important step in bringing this wetland subcategory to the carbon credit market. In the UK, for instance, peatlands are the focus of significant environmental concerns, with a report prepared by the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) in November 2011 warning that the loss of as little as five percent of the 2.7 million hectares of peatland in Britain would equal the UK's annual carbon emissions and thus imperil achievement of the country's emission reduction targets. The IUCN report, entitled "Cinderella habitat: overlooked and undervalued", asserts that there is potential for peatland funding through private financing initiatives under carbon markets and urges focused action and investment in peatland restoration as a cost-effective approach to carbon emissions reduction.

New threat to privacy? Scientists sound alarm about DNA tool
PARIS
The traces of genetic material that humans constantly shed wherever they go could soon be used to track individual people, or even whole ethnic groups, scientists say, warning of a looming "ethical quagmire".
A recently developed technique can glean a huge amount of information from tiny samples of genetic material called environmental DNA, or eDNA, that humans and animals leave behind everywhere -- including in the air.
The tool could lead to a range of medical and scientific advances, and could even help track down criminals, according to the authors of a new study published in the journal Nature Ecology & Evolution.
But it also poses a vast range of concerns around consent, privacy and surveillance, they added.
Humans spread their DNA -- which carries genetic information specific to each person -- everywhere, by shedding skin or hair cells, coughing out droplets, or in wastewater flushed down toilets.
In recent years, scientists have been increasingly collecting the eDNA of wild animals, in the hopes of helping threatened species.
For the new research, scientists at the University of Florida's Whitney Laboratory for Marine Bioscience had been focused on collecting the eDNA of endangered sea turtles.
But the international team of researchers inadvertently collected a massive amount of human eDNA, which they called "human genetic bycatch".
David Duffy, a wildlife disease genomic professor at the Whitney Laboratory who led the project, said they were "consistently surprised" by the amount and quality of the human eDNA they collected.
"In most cases the quality is almost equivalent to if you took a sample from a person," he said.
The scientists collected human eDNA from nearby oceans, rivers and towns, as well as from areas far from human settlements.
Struggling to find a sample not tainted by humans, they went to a section of a remote Florida island inaccessible to the public.
It was free of human DNA -- at least until a member of the team walked barefoot along the beach. They were then able to detect eDNA from a single footprint in the sand.
In Duffy's native Ireland, the team found human DNA all along a river, with the exception of the remote mountain stream at its source.
Taking samples from the air of a veterinary hospital, the team captured eDNA that matched the staff, their animal patient and viruses common in animals.
One of the study's authors, Mark McCauley of the Whitney Laboratory, said that by sequencing the DNA samples, the team was able to identify if a person had a greater risk of diseases such as autism and diabetes.
"All of this very personal, ancestral and health-related data is freely available in the environment, and it's simply floating around us in the air right now," McCauley told an online press conference. "We specifically did not examine our sequences in a way that we would be able to pick out specific individuals because of the ethical issues," he said.
But that would "definitely" be possible in the future, he added.
"The question is how long it takes until we're at that stage."
The researchers emphasised the potential benefits of collecting human eDNA, such as tracking cancer mutations in wastewater, discovering long-hidden archaeological sites or revealing the true culprit of a crime using only the DNA they left in a room.
Natalie Ram, a law professor at the University of Maryland not involved in the research, said the findings "should raise serious concern about genetic privacy and the appropriate limits of policing".
"Exploiting involuntarily shed genetic information for investigative aims risks putting all of us under perpetual genetic surveillance," she wrote in a commentary on the study.
The authors of the study shared her concerns.
McCauley warned harvesting human eDNA without consent could be used to track individual people or even target "vulnerable populations or ethnic minorities".
It is why the team decided to sound the alarm, they said in a statement, calling for policymakers and scientists to start working on regulation that could address the "ethical quagmire".

4 Reasons You Should Try Pregnancy Yoga
During these physically demanding months, pregnant women and their unborn children benefit from pregnancy yoga which aids in a healthy pregnancy and delivery. Another name for pregnancy yoga is prenatal yoga, and it involves light stretching into poses that improve flexibility, ease tension, and alleviate pain. Additionally, it may help you get a better night's sleep and strengthen the muscles involved in the delivery. Prenatal yoga is a safe, low-impact form of exercise that you can do in the comfort of your own home.
If the mother ensures that her metabolism and circulation are in good condition, the fetus’s development will improve. Pregnancy yoga, which keeps the mother physically fit and active during a time when her body naturally needs to be flexible, is one such method. Yoga additionally assists ladies to cope better during the course of labor. A pregnant woman will stay healthy and active throughout her pregnancy if she diligently practices yoga at home under the direction of an expert. Additionally, yoga helps a woman maintain her strength throughout childbirth.
Stress Reliever: Stress can be harmful to a developing fetus’s health. The body produces chemicals because of stress. A fetus’s brain may be affected by these hormones, such as cortisol, which alter the activity of neurotransmitters. This may raise the risk of attention deficit disorder, personality issues, and depression, according to researchers.
The practice has been displayed to assist with decreasing stress, both during and after pregnancy. The additional benefit of prenatal yoga classes is the ability to focus on the breath and quiet the mind while practicing it as exercise during pregnancy. It has been demonstrated that this reduces blood pressure effectively and promotes relaxation as well as stress relief.
Sleep Enhancer: A California investigation discovered that ladies in their second trimester who start a care-based yoga program- – one that consolidates contemplation with yoga presents – experience fewer sleep disorders. Pregnant women in India also have higher melatonin levels after practicing prenatal yoga for three months. Melatonin is a hormone that regulates sleep patterns and enhances well-being.
Baby Builder: It has been demonstrated that Baby Builder Prenatal Yoga helps to maintain a healthy birth weight. It may also help prevent fetal growth delays, as The Journal of Alternative and Complementary Medicine reports. A Kansas City University of Medicine and Biosciences study found that a baby’s heart health can be improved through regular yoga practice.
Because exercise increases circulation, more oxygen is delivered to internal organs. This means that a woman who is pregnant is also getting more oxygen for her baby.
Reduces Pain: In a study that was published in the Midwifery Journal, women who took part in a prenatal yoga program reported having fewer aches and pains than those who did not. They also seemed to be better able to deal with the pains of labor and delivery thanks to yoga.
In preparation for giving birth, many of the poses in prenatal yoga gently stretch the pelvic muscles. Additionally, this helps alleviate the tension and soreness brought on by increased pelvic pressure and weight gain.
Above were the benefits of yoga after getting pregnant but sometimes conceiving a child can be challenging at times. Experts attribute infertility to high levels of stress. Careers, relationships, homes, and a myriad of other commitments all contribute to high levels of stress in the modern world. Yoga also helps in conceiving people who have been dealing with PCOS/PCOD.
PCOS can contribute to infertility in women because it can disrupt ovulation, the process by which a woman’s ovaries release an egg each month for fertilization. In PCOS, the ovaries may not regularly release eggs or may release them infrequently, which can make it difficult to conceive. Additionally, high levels of androgens (male hormones) in women with PCOS can interfere with the development and release of mature eggs.
Fertility Yoga can be a helpful tool for managing the symptoms of PCOS and potentially improving fertility. Certain yoga poses and practices can help reduce stress, improve insulin sensitivity, and promote overall health and well-being, all of which can help manage PCOS symptoms and potentially improve fertility.

Gratitude
I am grateful that I was able to initiate a helpful and useful task with my mom. The interaction wasn't a perfect flow of calm discussion of the issues, but it was a touchy and difficult subject, so I should expect some heated energy from my mom. Bottomline: I am helping out my mom and I am taking this opportunity to develop better adaptability towards her. She's already a senior citizen, so we all know changing her habits now would be impossible.
I am grateful for my niece for being the one responsible for setting up my pillbox of nightly mental health medicines every week. She's in the last year of Senior high school ( The government here just mandated 2 additional years to the old 4 year high school, and called the additional 2 years as senior high and the 4 years prior as junior high, so that age-wise and education-wise, graduates are competent for work and can keep up with international standards. The subjects they teach for the new senior high are actually college level subjects, and they are designed like a 2 year prep course for specific courses in college. e.g. There's STEM, Entrepreneurship, General Academic Studies, Arts, Bioscience and Healthcare, and whatever else the senior high administrators can adequately teach and offer students. ) . I know she's stressing out at school, doing her best to do well at the subjects, as well as doing the rounds of College/University Applications and Admissions, but I am grateful and proud of the fact that she has consistently been in the honors group of students, all the while being a responsible person to us, the family that adopted and are taking care of her.
I am grateful that I have found a lot of mental health and wellness techniques that I now incorporate in my day. I think the capacity to reflect on my reaction towards my mom today, and being able to realize, observe, and reflect on the negative emotions that I had is something I have developed through the practice of Mindfulness, Journalling and Meditation. Yeah, I had lost my cool, but I was able to look inward and towards how others would react, and gained an insight. So yeah, I am learning to adapt and be better at handling my and mothers reactions. Yay growth mindset!👊🤓
