El Niño Ready turns a climate forecast into a two-minute public warning
A volunteer campaign asks Climate Week organizers to spend two minutes warning audiences about the projected 2026 El Niño and preparing for its effects.
Field notes
The campaign’s proposed mechanism is deliberately small: ask Climate Week hosts to give a two-minute warning from the main microphone, then distribute five talking points by email. The page says the forecast peak is expected in December 2026, roughly three months after Climate Week, and organizes its preparation case around power, water, and livelihoods. Its projections are attributed to sources including NOAA-related modeling, WFP/FAO reporting, PIIE, Mongabay, and The Climate Brink.
