PRESSURE SYSTEMS — LATEST EDITION

El Niño Heat Storms Meet Oil Windfalls

November 9, 2026

US oil firms are banking $130bn from the Iran war as household energy bills climb, while the 2026-27 El Niño pushes Bolivia into drought, Indonesia into peat-fire haze, and Europe and Canada into record heat. The physical feedbacks—dry soils and high pressure amplifying heatwaves, weakening Atlantic currents, rising greenhouse gases—are outpacing the institutions meant to respond: Canada has repealed its consumer carbon tax, national climate plans omit AMOC risk, and health systems face heat, smoke, and kidney disease without emergency-scale mobilization.
