  • For the first time the world was 1.5 degrees warmer compared to pre-industrial times. It was actually anticipated that this important threshold would only be reached in the next few years or the next decade. Recently, scientists expressed "alarm" over the latest findings that the so-called AMOC, a system of ocean currents in the Atlantic, is about to shift due to rapid ice melt. If it were to fail, Europe would see a dramatic drop in temperatures of up to 10 degrees on average. In southern hemisphere countries, warming could intensify, and in the Amazon region, the rainy and dry seasons could be reversed. Sea levels would rise at a speed that would make it impossible for humans to adapt in time. Have we already exceeded the key 1.5-degree limit agreed in the Paris Climate Accord for good?

      That still wouldn't solve the problem because we're activating positive feedback loops. The energy sectors much change their source of energy.
      Chevron/Exon/BP-Mobil, and the Chinese and Russian state energy agencies are the top contributors to anthropogenic 12C emissions, so it's the energy sector that has to change. Next largest contributor to anthropogenic 12C emissions is US Department of Defense, and 75% of that are aircraft operations, predominantly Air Force.

      As you point out, however, the only way to fix this is if everyone makes the effort to change. There's more to the problem than just that though; the change everyone needs to make is to willingly burden themselves with a drastic quality of life reduction. Everyone needs to completely change the way they live their lives i.e. growing your own food, making your own clothes, never travelling away from where you live. No more computers, no more cellphones, no more going to the movies, no more convenience stores, etc.

      Not all change is the same and not all is adaptable. Just imagine if the temperature rose 100 degrees in an hour. Would you be saying the same thing? If not, then you understand the principle. The actual change may seem slow to us, but from a geological and an ecological perspective it’s incredibly fast. We must try to adapt but we must also mitigate, because if it gets bad enough, we won’t be able to adapt.
      And that leads me to the second part of your comment. Yes, in that situation the doctor could do nothing, but we can mitigate. So perhaps change the analogy to someone with diabetes who could lose their foot if they don’t change their diet. If the doctor said, “So what if you lose your foot, your body’s always changing, you can adapt,” you’d probably find a new doctor.

      Chill out.
      The GHG mitigation that we have been doing over the last fifty years will not be experienced by your grandchildren’s children, by a long shot! Science tells us so!!
      The significant costs to affect the green energy transition is paid for by us as part of our taxes, levies and energy charges. There is a massive lead time before our efforts will show up in climate data.
      First there is the GHG’s associated with building the new infrastructure. As we accelerate the process of building new green energy infrastructure anthropogenic CO2 emissions will accelerate …. sciences tells us this.
      So chill, the climate data will become worse before there will be any drop in anthropogenic CO2 emissions. Many people who are currently living in energy poverty will gain improvements to their lives while the rest of us will continue to pay more in taxes to accelerate the green transition.
      Our measure of success in addressing this “existential threat” is more likely to be measured in a rapid short and medium term increase in atmospheric CO2 than a drop in atmospheric CO2.
      Please note, 1.5 degrees was never a tipping point, it was always a target. A target that reflects very badly on the so called science of consensus, don’t you think?

    No one really understands this 1.5 degree measurement. It’s meaningless in the everyday world where the temperature range that is experienced daily varies constantly by more than this. Most automatically think “oh it’s going to be 1.5 degrees warmer” and don’t really comprehend it. So the poles are going to be -23.5c instead of -25c, USA average will be 13.5c instead of 12c.

      ridiculous. The air is much cleaner than the 60s and 70s. And CO2 is NOT a pollutant. IT's necessary for plant life. And produced oxygen. Only climate nuts call CO2 a pollutant. There's no real evidence that CO levels cause climate change. Climate change ( I remember when they were predicting another ice age, then it was global warming, then when the Earth refused to warm to their predictions climate change) is just a ruse to control people and for businesses and government to tax ordinary people and the WEF to create a global serfdom by destroying the middle class with their "Great Reset" and climate restrictions. Those against fertilizer and fossil fuels have already created a "heating vs eating" crisis and destroying the middle class - even two wage earning families are struggling. Without modern fertilizers the world will starve. But that's okay, because they want to cull the population and just leave a "serfdom" class to serve the elite. Who will get richer while everyone starves. And the sheep bleat "climate change will destroy us". Look to the UN/WEF to do that.

      Ambassador Matlock talks about testifying before the Senate Foreign Relations Committee a quarter of a century ago (1997) about the possible expansion of NATO. He told the Senate, quote:
      “I consider the administration’s recommendation to take new members into NATO at this time misguided. If it should be approved by the United States Senate, it may well go down in history as the most profound strategic blunder made since the end of the Cold War. Far from improving the security of the United States, its Allies, and the nations that wish to enter the Alliance, it could well encourage a chain of events that could produce the most serious security threat to this nation since the Soviet Union collapsed.”
