Intensification of extreme weather events fuels conflict in Africa
The World Meteorological Organization (WMO) pointed out the risk of massive population displacement due to the scarcity of water resources.

"High water stress is estimated to affect about 250 million people in Africa and is expected to displace up to 700 million people by 2030,"

Risk of multiple climate tipping points escalates above 1.5°C global warming

quote:

The Sixth Assessment Report of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), stated that risks of triggering climate tipping points become high by around 2°C above preindustrial temperatures and very high by 2.5–4°C.

This new analysis indicates that Earth may have already left a "safe" climate state when temperatures exceeded approximately 1°C warming. A conclusion of the research is therefore that even the United Nations' Paris Agreement goal to limit warming to well-below 2°C and preferably 1.5°C is not enough to fully avoid dangerous climate change. According to the assessment, tipping point likelihood increases markedly in the "Paris range" of 1.5–2°C warming, with even higher risks beyond 2°C.

The study provides strong scientific support for the Paris Agreement and associated efforts to limit global warming to 1.5°C, because it shows that the risk of tipping points escalates beyond this level. To have a 50% chance of achieving 1.5°C and thus limiting tipping point risks, global greenhouse gas emissions must be cut by half by 2030, reaching net-zero by 2050.

It's fun looking back at elementary school and remembering young kids didn't have grass or a field for recess. You had to stay on the asphalt if you were before grade 4, nominally because it was closer to the school building

at my elementary school we were allowed to go on the grass and it was far enough away from the minders that we started a fight club out there. then we got caught and couldnt go on the grass anymore

This is the "freedom" offered by the capitalist system. You can do as you wish, but as soon as a child begins to experience the thrill of real freedom the fascist elements of the system (teachers) take away their right to touch grass

Climate change is just the fascist capitalists attempting to end touching grass on a global scale. It's like a poem, it rhymes

cringe levels decreasing in Q4 2022 was just a temporary false reduction as the thread temporarily absorbed more cringe than expected in the short term

unfortunately this means that cringe levels will be increasing faster than expected going forward once cringe capacity has been reached

In his Friday speech, the new king did not mention the words "climate change," and that, in and of itself, spoke volumes.

that's the basis of this article

the whole basis

dude didn't say something in an unrelated speech

i mean, the king advocated for the most milquetoast do nothing net zero nonsense and has no more power to do anything about it than as prince so it doesn't matter anyway

but lol that the idea of any dissent on the subject still causes consternation
