Climate Change

The recent end of La Niña and the transition to neutral ENSO conditions suggest a shift in global weather patterns, which can lead to unpredictable and extreme weather events. This transition, coupled with an active tornado season, indicates potential near-term impacts on weather-related disasters. While ENSO models have improved, their predictions still carry uncertainty, which complicates planning and mitigation efforts. The influence of climate on ecosystems, as seen in regions like the Galapagos, underscores the broader implications of these shifts, potentially affecting biodiversity and human livelihoods.
