And via Google we received: Any advice on building a new Pangea? The setting I’m working on takes place on a Pangea-esque mega-continent, and a lot of the advice about building the natural aspects of a world (biomes, weather, etc) since a lot of the advice I’ve been finding has been based on more earth-like worlds.

Tex: Supercontinents like Pangaea are not unique, and Earth is suspected to have undergone several periods of supercontinent formation and dissolution (Wikipedia), but the one you describe is currently the best-modelled one from reconstructions. Like any other large continent, weather patterns will follow basic patterns of distance from an ocean or sea, wind directions, and the ratio of deserts to temperate and tropical areas.

Life on Pangaea would have been diverse and with a wide geographic spread (Wikipedia), due to the lack of oceanic barriers. One consequence of this is that when there is an extinction event, it is comparatively much worse because there are many more members of a species to die off, which would affect the climate via destabilization of the trophic levels.

ICPAC to Provide Climate Services and Multi-hazard Early Warnings to E.A

The IGAD Climate Prediction and Applications Centre (ICPAC) was officially opened by Kenyan President Uhuru Kenyatta in Ngong’, near the Kenyan capital Nairobi on Wednesday.

Speaking during the launch, President Kenyatta said global warming is a threat to climate change in Africa. He said there has been an increase in temperature and precipitation patterns.

“We live in uncertain times, increasing temperatures and sea levels, changing precipitation patterns and more extreme weather are threatening human health and safety, food and water security and socio-economic development in Africa. Africa, while currently responsible for a negligible amount of total global greenhouse gas emissions, is under significant threat from climate change.” said Kenyan President Uhuru Kenyatta.

His could be hazardous if there is an increase in intensity and frequency. It is always advised to provide a quality climate service and early warning. This can only be done through intergovernmental institutions.

CS Omamo and Tobiko who were present during the event, said the opening is a milestone not only for the IGAD region but the whole of Africa Continent. They promised to move together in ensuring a success in making a sure there is plenty of water, food and resources.

“The opening of the IGAD Climate Predictions and Application Center is a milestone, not only for the IGAD region but the continent of Africa. I was struck as I was taken around the offices of this impressive center, about the idea of connection. I thought about how visionary the IGAD member states came together in the name of development and understanding that we are a climate challenged region, a water-stressed zone, a zone of food insecurity and resource-based conflicts.” said CS Raychelle Omamo.

“I was here about two months ago and we planted about 200 trees in the corner there. We are in this together. There is either we survive and succeed, or perish together. That is the choice we have to make” added CS Keriako Tobiko

They emphasized the need of ensuring safety and no destruction of the environment through the activities that they per take into.

“Rejection of the existence and impact of climate change will cost us not just our health, but our home as the human race. And I would like to emphasize that we do not have a spare planet in which we will seek refuge once we have succeeded in destroying this one.” said Workneh Gebeyehu, IGAD’s Executive Secretary.

As part of the center’s launch, a Disaster Operations Center was established, with a situation room that will monitor major hazards and provide regional early warnings for drought, floods, extreme rainfall, food insecurity, or pests like the desert locust.

‘We Must Stop Our War Against Nature,’ Says UN Chief On Climate #DestroyDickDecember #StyleByZenith2019 #December4Tacha #NORARS #SundayThoughts #JuveSassuolo #December1st

“We must stop our war against nature,” UN chief Antonio Guterres said Sunday in Madrid ahead of a key climate conference, warning against the devastating impacts of global warming.

“For many decades the human species has been at war with the planet, and now the planet is fighting back,” he said, decrying the “utterly inadequate” efforts of the world’s major economies to curb carbon pollution.

Earlier today, I spent an hour in a densely packed and airless bus, from the Bibliothèque Nationale, where the beautiful reading room is always cool, almost cold even in early July, to the overexposed and scorched Porte de Gentilly. I was looking forward to visiting the Maison du Brésil at Cité Universitaire. I haven't seen it since it was renovated.
