1.5C is broken according to Dr Hansen 2.0C is unstoppable: The oceans are outgassing CO2/CH4 as they warmer, the warmer they get the more they outgas, the higher the CO2/CH4, The higher the temps.. we have passed a tipping point..only time can stop this cycle. https://insideclimatenews.org/news/26052023/james-hansen-climate-change-2-degrees-2050/

We’re at the precarious edge of the most dangerous tipping point, and both time and the maths are against us, but some things are possible to reverse part of this. See comments above and below 🫤

ogredragon.bsky.social•15 days ago

unfortunately we are beyond precarious: https://bsky.app/profile/ogredragon.bsky.social/post/3lnwbgmbswk23

Yep, and this country is not prepared in any way for that. But breaking the bubble of comfort and entitlement will happen somehow. 🫤

ogredragon.bsky.social•15 days ago

thank you for recognizing that... most people now alive in the US have had a very comfortable life with them becoming feeling that will be entitled to them forever... That is not how it will work... in 2 -3 months the store shelves could be worse than during COVID... And Mother Nature Will get even

Some things are inevitable in human history -this may be one. Our thankless task is to transform the trajectory of human civilization while keeping our hand steady on the tiller. Can we learn from the failures of reactive revolution and consider the best strategy for proactive evolution?

Don’t worry - TRump and Musk have a plan 🤣

You’re right. It was a formerly suggested goal.

bowtoy.bsky.social•15 days ago

That's what I keep saying our goal should be. Oh wait, we don't have one at all

Not quite Steve. https://www.theclimaterestorers.com/. But do the maths add up? Sometimes yes, often no. Time’s not on our side. But the game of life and evolution aren’t over yet. https://www.sbs.com.au/ondemand/tv-series/the-climate-restorers

thank you phoebe for your work and perseverance

phoebebarnard.bsky.social•13 days ago

Hopefully not in vain or fatally naive. We need to pull out all the stops 💥

postcarbonsteve.bsky.social•13 days ago

agree and im grateful for you and folks like you

Yet again it is… HOTTEST YEAR EVER!!
..for a bit.

Humans are already doomed, we just don’t realise it yet.

davidgoesplaces.bsky.social•15 days ago

The species is quite robust. That said, I do think there's a pretty good chance modernity as we know it is toast.

akashicweaver.bsky.social•15 days ago

I'd be interested to hear about this robustness and how it addresses the wet bulb temperature issue.

sonofirving.bsky.social•15 days ago

It's already past time to try to find some place to hide, ya'll.

phoebebarnard.bsky.social•15 days ago

Hiding is, alas, no solution. Staying the course and pulling 8.2 billion people in the right direction is part of the solution and yet there’s little time for that anymore. I need people and funds to help do this. If you know of anyone. https://earthxmedia.com/show/the-climate-restorers/

It’s a goal in the sense that goalposts are a goal even if everyone stopped playing and went home.

Don’t know what that actually means tbf. Don’t really want to think about it too much.

Any one that has kids, grand kids, nephews and nieces has to be alarmed for their sake

My goal: to become the first trillionaire lottery winner.

I don’t play the lottery, but I have a goal!

China is doing something about it. First CO2 emission drop in China despite rapid power demand growth. Trump is set to kill the US economy, so he might actually do the world a favor and reduce US CO2 emission by mistake, who knows.

phoebebarnard.bsky.social•15 days ago

#China has the benefit of a large-scale, long-game approach. In episode 4 of #TheClimateRestorers #documentary series, we follow the vast-scale restoration of the Loess Plateau after a millennium of degradation. https://earthxmedia.com/show/the-climate-restorers/

It's ok, because the 1000 richest families have a plan to live well.
