The most disgusting consequences of Hurricane Florence for the Carolinas (Inside Climate News). This story is about what the flood waters have done to overcome inadequate controls on hog, chicken and turkey farms, coal ash deposits, sewage treatment facilities, superfund pollution sites and so on. On top of all that, a number of drinking water systems were put out of service.

Scientists worry that the role fungi play in regulating climate is being weakened. (This fascinating educational piece was provided by WBUR radio in Boston.) The critical part reveals the story of the enormous amount of carbon that is stored in soil’s fungal life and how these species are disrupted in several ways because of fossil fuel emission effects. Significant CO2 losses are being studied and quantified. “Preliminary results from Templer’s experimental plot in a New Hampshire forest suggest that if scaled up for the entire New England region, the amount of carbon stored by fungi in forest soil would be reduced by 20 percent, further accelerating the climate change feedback loop and increasing the possibility of runaway global warming.” (This is a phenomenon that could rival the importance of permafrost thawing and will need to be added to climate models as information grows.)

Original research has discovered an entirely new process by which large quantities of CO2 are released as a feedback from thawing permafrost. “The amount of carbon dioxide released from thawing permafrost might be greater than previously thought because of a process called mineral weathering, according to a new study by University of Alberta ecologists.” It appears that this process varies from place to place. When it occurs it can add to the CO2 released by the well-studied microbial breakdown of organic matter. As in the previous story, the numbers still have to be worked out more fully.

More good stuff from Jennifer Francis. Yesterday I posted an interview which I hope you read because her explanations of atmospheric science are top quality and so easy to understand. Later yesterday a video came in from Peter Sinclair’s site which again features Dr. Francis along with some excellent illustrated material and extra breadth respecting the Pacific side, “How Climate and Ice Melt Intensify Hurricanes.”

Writing for Vox, David Roberts provides evidence that electric utility customers are waking up to the advantages of renewable power sources and are starting to put pressure on companies to hurry up and make a 100-percent switch. This is very good news and will have to find a place in political platforms fairly soon, especially serving as an opportunity for Democratic (or Independent) candidates to gain favor in the current situation.
