it's a good article and even better is that at least for me this is the one right below it https://www.gawker.com/politics/meet-australias-batshit-insane-mining-billionaires quote:Rinehart’s conviction that all the world’s wisdom can be found in right-wing Boomer memes came up again a few weeks ago, when she gave a video presentation to students from her old boarding school. The version that the kids actually ended up watching was heavily edited by the teachers, but in the full 15-minute version, Rinehart fondly reminisces about the school and her childhood for a few minutes before abruptly launching into a spiel about Al Gore, An Inconvenient Truth, and underwater volcanoes.

CGI Stardust posted:a system that cannot think long-term or outside its model of how the world works; cooperation cannot exist, rivalry is the natural state of human society, one weird trick to assure dominance in a dying world means Regrettably, this is a decent argument for a kind of accelerationism as a path to degrowth. Capitalism always eats itself -- so why prolong it and let it continue blindly wrecking the planet? Why not identify the contradictions least harmful to the biosphere and find ways to heighten them? I struggle to accpet how much blood would end up on the hands of the people attempting something like this (any kind of economic sabotage especially), though. On a gut level, I can't accept the contempt for humanity that would be necessary to even try. I think that's where I depart with DGR and similar types, it's just not a realistic way of thinking about the problem from an "individual human" standpoint. Very few people have the moral compass of some oh-so-clever Sci-Fi villain who's actually trying to save us all.

Cloks posted:"as Sharknado 5: global swarming's subtitle suggests, we do not have to look far to see climate change and other anthropogenic crises folded into the movies' constantly self-unpicking fabric" “In the Sharknado movies, the contrasts between stock footage, narrative footage, and the maladroit CGI with which they intercut and are often adorned are excessively evident. Such disjunctures underscore the actuality of the stock footage. Real catastrophe lurks beneath the surface.it emerges as verité fragments, but is quickly swept away by remorseless torrents of distraction.”

It is +10 degrees in the sun in SW Alberta today. There is no snow on the ground. The ground is dry and hard as granite. There is not a lick of wind today, the turbines are dead calm, and as a result there is a deafening silence around me such as I have only experienced at the very apex of mountain peaks shortly before dawn. A lack of sound so oppressive, you can feel it on your ears as a physical force. No birds, no insects, this is not the season. Nothing to sense except barren brown earth under an unseasonably hot sun, from horizon to horizon, and my new turbine farm. poo poo is fuuuuuuucked.

Rime posted:It is +10 degrees in the sun in SW Alberta today. Yeah I've been noticing it for years but there's no bugs anywhere here in central Florida. I remember them being thick especially in the summer, and at first I kind of enjoyed not having them attacking me all the time and otherwise being nuisances but now I miss them like I do old friends. There's no turning back. Global warming is a problem but so is biosphere destruction and that's going to kill us even faster I think. T-Paine has issued a correction as of 00:16 on Nov 12, 2021 |

It's been so mild that that all the bulbs planted in early October that are supposed to overwinter are starting to pop up now. It's November and not only have I not switched on the heating yet but I have the windows wide open.

roger hallam yelling for 20 minutes, but it's nice at the start to hear that the paris agreement scientists all knew 1.5 wasn't possible, but they didn't want to risk losing their prestigious academic positions. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t7oNQgDC4Hw

what are the roots that clutch, what branches grow out of this stony rubbish? Son of man, you cannot say, or guess, for you know only a heap of broken images, where the sun beats and the dead tree gives no shelter, the cricket no relief, and the dry stone no sound of water. Only there is shadow under this red rock (come in under the shadow of this red rock), and I will show you something different from either your shadow at morning striding behind you or your shadow at evening rising to meet you; I will show you fear in a handful of dust.

Instead, those countries—and others throughout the world—have focused on nebulous emissions cuts and promises of net zero. The latter offers wiggle room for countries to keep producing and using fossil fuels based on plans to capture carbon dioxide from the atmosphere at some point down the road. Those technologies currently exist, but at nowhere remotely near the scale needed. The U.S. is still leasing oil and gas permits while Russia’s state-owned gas company is planning a ginormous gas terminal in the Arctic. And counties in the Middle East like Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates... well, their economies are built on oil. bury that lede, baby

This planet could be like a fun haunted house for alien visitors. Just get a giant orbiting sign up that says "Now entering: BiosFEAR". Obviously it would be like a cool horror themed font.
