From Prof. Eliot Jacobson:

Wow! Wow! Wow!

North Atlantic sea surface temperature anomalies are going vertical again. And yes, I needed to extend the y-axis.

Yesterday’s temperature of 24.49°C (76.08°F) was 4.2σ above the 1991-2020 mean. The previous high for July 17 was 23.71°C (74.68°F) in 2020.

Heavy particulate smog cools the planet. Horrible for people, but has masked how bad CO2 has increased global heating.

As many places have cleaned up diesel fuel emissions, the heating has increased.

The US East coast pollution of the 1970’s was a major contribution to the drought in Ethiopia in the 80’s. Dense smog blocks ocean evaporation. Chinese heavy smog has been causing a lot of the drought conditions in the western US due to the same factors.

I find it amazing how each Continent causes changes in other Continents.

Guess we should cover earth in a nice thick layer of dust for a few years until we solved the climate problem…

Isnt that what happened in the Matrix and why the world was left in desolation due to the crazy weather that that caused?

There are people that seriously propose that.

Essentially. We’d have to continue creating a masking effect, while stopping and reducing CO².

I think if humanity joined forces, a united effort, we could fix it, but I think we won’t, because of the greedy few.

We have moved to https://lemm.ee/c/collapse – please adjust your subscriptions

This is the place for discussing the potential collapse of modern civilization and the environment.

Collapse, in this context, refers to the significant loss of an established level or complexity towards a much simpler state. It can occur differently within many areas, orderly or chaotically, and be willing or unwilling. It does not necessarily imply human extinction or a singular, global event. Although, the longer the duration, the more it resembles a ‘decline’ instead of collapse.

RULES

1 - Remember the human

2 - Link posts should come from a reputable source

3 - All opinions are allowed but discussion must be in good faith.

4 - No low effort posts.
