It really feels like this so much! There were quite some sad climate news this year already, but except the heatwave in Europe, they all got buried by Hormuz strait news, like:

• collapse of AMOC now likely
• collapse of Thwaites now likely
• acceleration of warming almost doubled in the past decade to about 0.3 °C/decade
