Raine posted:the idea of "doing something" is rooted in the assumption that there is something you can do on a personal level to mitigate the effects of climate change We can do what the Lakota did to survive the last ice age, live underground for thousands of years. or for white people to understand, on David Lynches dune, the Fremen built large underground water supplies. We need to do the same thing, and farm underground, time to get used to algae cakes for everything

Cloks posted:if you have any more information about this, I'd be interested in learning about it I grew up on the lakota reservation and its only word of mouth, just like the secret local delacacy, Puppy Soup. Also the xbox 360 Turok game is loosely based on the same story, basically the Lakota survived underground and came out, because mankind hosed up, and if we colonize the moon, we will fuckup super bad and unless we make earth a garden planet we will SUFFER They dont like talking about it because my 1st cousins who is my adopted brothers grandpa accidently started a cult because he talked about it to white people, and thats why greenpeace names their boats "rainbow warrior". Basically its not talked about because it goes on the extremes of -people beleiving it too hard and making a cult -the other people thinking its all bullshit and for attention and NOBODY LIVED UNDERGROUND DURING THE ICE AGE, its not in the history books! Basically its lose lose telling people cool native legends. Its terrible

in ancient hindu text the rig veda, serpent vritra has blocked all the rivers holding up earth's water on a mountain until god indra drinks soma and defeats it with a thunderbolt, freeing the waters. indra also splits open the cave vala to release a bunch of cows and the morning dawn. the book The Arctic Home in the Vedas argues that the stories are so old that they took place at the north pole and are about the glaciers melting at the end of the last ice age.

turns out everything was going great until someone thought "583 years ago" was a literary device and kept using that number when they were retelling the story on an unrelated note: https://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2015/07/20/the-really-big-one

The last glacial period had already been underway since ~100,000 BC and lasted until ~10,000 BC. There was no pre-glacial Arctic humanity. That book was written in 1903 and was mistakenly assuming that the last ice age had been short-lived, and happened around that time.

Rauros posted:when i was in undergrad in the early 2000's, we had a coral biologist in our environmental studies 201 class said if you wanted to see coral in florida, you better go right now before it turned into algae flats. he was right, and it's all gone now and forgotten. I tried to find some source to learn more about it, and the first article from 2020 has this to say: quote:The United States’ coral reefs are in fair condition, according to a recent reef condition status report, but vulnerable to decline. Scientists estimate that along the coast of Florida, where degradation is most severe, perhaps as little as 2% of original coral cover remains. Did i forget the definition of "fair"?

White Rock posted:Did i forget the definition of "fair"? Well you see, we compare year over year, and it seems that from the previous year we went from 3% to 2% of the initial coverage, with is only a 33% decline in total size, so more than half, 66%, is still good from last year. It's not ideal, but quite fair!

people who say we can still avert 1.5C are funny as hell https://www.bbc.com/news/science-environment-60815547 "Scientists believe that keeping the rise in global temperatures under 1.5C this century is crucial to limiting the scale of damage from global warming. To keep that threshold alive, carbon output needs to be cut in half by the end of this decade. Instead, as Mr Guterres points out, emissions are set to rise by 14%." pretty sure if all carbon output magically stopped tomorrow we would still hit 1.5C anyway

I really enjoyed it last summer when I went to the mountains of where I was born, And its hundreds of miles away from any major city, and there was this horizon of beautiful yellow smog. Beautiful, when I was younger I could see clarity on the horizon, now its tinged in a yellow smog layer of diffusion.
