Taima posted:Man this sure looks bleak! It's crazy how clear the science is on this that we've reached a positive feedback loop that has triggered a new mode of global temperatures, and on top of that, the vast majorty of our climate models have severely underestimated how fast it is all happening. This new mode will be very rough for humans, how sad for us Please take the climate doom antinatalism to the parenting thread

I'm proposing that we make the manpower to beat this thing e: the people power. The non-gendered power, of people's choosing.

i'm sure burning millions of years of solar energy in a hundred odd years has a simple solution no one has thought of yet!

To be fair at current rates of energy consumption it will take a few centuries for the heat released purely from burning stored energy to make a difference. It will, that's why Nuclear, for example, can't be the "we've switched and now we're good for eternity" solution. Fission or fusion. But that's not causing our current problems.

didn't think the actual heat would make a difference but good to know. i was obliquely referring to the photosynthesis energy used to link carbon together that we've now dissipated back into CO2.

I may have doomed 1+ people to living on a dying planet but at least my friends don’t think I’m weird and know that I gently caress

When does everyone think it will be at the point where the rest of the globe freaks the gently caress out? When things are so totally bent out of shape and falling apart, that it's evident it's not a couple of wild summers or winters that led to bizarre effects like crop loss or mass migration from firestorms.

‘rest of the globe’ I dunno, that needs definition. we have already been seeing for years people fleeing drought and failed crops, fleeing flooding and storm damage. it’s just mostly the global south, who are invisible until they present themselves on the doorstep of wealthy countries and the press wails about a ‘migrant crisis’ with no origin as with ‘collapse’ or ‘doomsday’ or whatever, it’s happening now it’s just not that bad yet

Mass chaos doesn't happen until the supermarket goes empty. People's fear of COVID ended when the toilet paper came back in stock.

Countries that don't have strong governments will go the way of Haiti with groups attempting to fill power voids. I don't see it playing out like Ministry for the Future where there's some cataclysmic event that leads to a reckoning. It will just put pressure on everything like that quote from vyelkin in the OP.

lol, y'all right. I'm going to just enjoy crack pingin' in the Children of Men re-enactment while everyone else goes mental over banal gossip poo poo as the world literally burns around them. I loved the BBC Six O'clock News the other day having a segment 15 minutes in that lasted all of 30 seconds about record high global temperatures. That was fifth billing after some cop investigation, the hosed up budget this week, something about the Royals probably, and something about Gaza. Living the best timeline here, folks. We be blessed.

i watched a documentary about Gobekli-Tepe that went into how people were hunter-gatherers for tens of thousands of years. then tried (and likely failed) to develop proper agriculture for awhile but once it stuck lived like that for thousands of years, along with re-ordering social structures, time use, resource allocation etc. accordingly. and all i could think of was how we industrialized in less than two centuries and permanently hosed up the planet. like gently caress what a thing to be here to see it o7. also i could almost buy ssome kind of higher intelligence here because the whole thing kind of screams failed experiment lol lmao.
