[@LemauriceL]

There is a basic conceptual misunderstanding in present politics, who consider the restoration of a climate sustaining life on this planet to be the antagonist of a successful economy. The economy - this term is an ideology-driven generalisation by its own right - will always be favoured by those in power, since their foremost interest is pumping money to the top 10 percent of the richest people on earth. We are effectively transforming the health capacities of this world into - in a purely materialistic sense - worthless digits on bank accounts. But in reality, the direct cause of inhabitable conditions and exponentially increasing damage done by catastrophes such as floodings etc. will automatically result in economic collapse, de-valuating all the digits in ther accounts and finally fully obliterating all the sacrifices the working people have made without equally profiting. If we do not change course, humanity will go extinct because stopping climate change was cost-inefficient and the richest could not make good profit from it. What a world we live in. Thinking reversely, rescuing this planet also means rescuing the economy, which in turn should be worth some effort, shouldn't it?

Alberta and Texas have differing approaches to "clean energy" because their politicians have different motives . When politicians are excluded from controlling other people's property, the most efficient usage will be quickly found. Why? It won't be based on short-term, destructive, hidden agendas of politicians/crony interests. But, less control does NOT mean freedom, rights. It only means less disruption, less corruption, less economic failure. A totally freed up market would generate extreme wealth, undreamed of by advocates of socialism. So, what do you want, perpetual broken political promises or Capitalist prosperity? It's your choice to "live & let live" or ask others to force everyone to obey their dictates. Think carefully. It's your life but you can give it to others and trust them not to sacrifice it for their own benefit.

What unadulterated tosh! For a start, what is the "perfect" climate that we need to restore the Earth to? All the observations that we have show that there is nothing, whatsoever, for us to be alarmed about, we are, unequivocally, *NOT* in any danger, at all, apart from persons like this, through either their own ignorance, or - worse - a wilful mis-presentation of the known facts.

[@HealingLifeKwikly]

"What unadulterated tosh! For a start, what is the "perfect" climate that we need to restore the Earth to?" That's easy: You want to maintain the climate conditions that all ecosystems NOW on Earth are well-adapted to. If you rapidly disrupt those conditions--as we are now doing--that causes the health of the ecosystems that all life on Earth depends on to deteriorate (as they are now doing). "All the observations that we have show that there is nothing, whatsoever, for us to be alarmed about, we are, unequivocally, NOT in any danger" Uhh, speaking as a senior university professor and researcher, the evidence is overwhelming that our emissions are hurting people and the planet in hundreds of destructive and expensive ways. For example, from the 6th IPCC report: "B.1.1 Widespread, pervasive impacts to ecosystems, people, settlements, and infrastructure have resulted from observed increases in the frequency and intensity of climate and weather extremes, including hot extremes on land and in the ocean, heavy precipitation events, drought and fire weather (high confidence). Increasingly since AR5, these observed impacts have been attributed28 to human-induced climate change particularly through increased frequency and severity of extreme events. These include increased heat-related human mortality (medium confidence), warm-water coral bleaching and mortality (high confidence), and increased drought-related tree mortality (high confidence). Observed increases in areas burned by wildfires have been attributed to human-induced climate change in some regions (medium to high confidence). Adverse impacts from tropical cyclones, with related losses and damages19, have increased due to sea level rise and the increase in heavy precipitation (medium confidence). Impacts in natural and human systems from slow-onset processes29 such as ocean acidification, sea level rise or regional decreases in precipitation have also been attributed to human induced climate change (high confidence). {1.3, 2.3, 2.4, 2.5, 3.2, 3.4, 3.5, 3.6, 4.2, 5.2, 5.4, 5.6, 5.12, 7.2, 9.6, 9.7, 9.8, 9.11, 11.3, Box 11.1, Box 11.2, Table 11.9, 12.3, 12.4, 13.3, 13.5, 13.10, 14.2, 14.5, 15.7, 15.8, 16.2, CCP1.2, CCP2.2, Box CCP5.1, CCP7.3, CCB DISASTER, CCB EXTREME, CCB ILLNESS, WGI AR6 SPM.3, WGI AR6 9, WGI AR6 11.3-11.8, SROCC Chapter 4}" Be well.

[@HealingLifeKwikly]

​@@robertpayne4033 Thanks for your reply. I mentioned my experience to signal that after spending thousands of hours studying these issues, I might know a wee bit more about these issues than does the average poster. "Are we? Define "rapid disruption", then identify ecosystems that have had their health deteriorated." Sure, I'll explain what I can fit into a couple of posts. Humans are currently warming the planet ~20 times faster than it usually warms when coming out of a glaciation event and increasing global CO2 levels 10 times faster than they increased before the worst mass extinction in Earth's history. If we keep this up, we'll wipe out most life on Earth, including most humans because big changes in CO2 levels have been THE main "kill mechanism" for most major and minor extinction events in Earth's history. All ecosystems on Earth have been disrupted, and researchers have identified hundreds of ways that our emissions are hurting not just ecosystems and other species, but also people and societies, including disrupted shipping, rising prices, lower incomes, and even the really-tough-to-fight fires that just hit LA (before man-made global warming, fire season in California didn't overlap with the Santa Ana winds). I previously inserted a chunk from the 6th IPCC report that addressed some of the disruptions caused by rapid man-made global heating and climate disruption (including . Here's another chunk from that report: B.1.2 Climate change has caused substantial damages, and increasingly irreversible losses, in terrestrial, freshwater and coastal and open ocean marine ecosystems (high confidence). The extent and magnitude of climate change impacts are larger than estimated in previous assessments (high confidence). Widespread deterioration of ecosystem structure and function, resilience and natural adaptive capacity, as well as shifts in seasonal timing have occurred due to climate change (high confidence), with adverse socioeconomic consequences (high confidence). Approximately half of the species assessed globally have shifted polewards or, on land, also to higher elevations (very high confidence). Hundreds of local losses of species have been driven by increases in the magnitude of heat extremes (high confidence), as well as mass mortality events on land and in the ocean (very high confidence) and loss of kelp forests (high confidence). Some losses are already irreversible, such as the first species extinctions driven by climate change (medium confidence). Other impacts are approaching irreversibility such as the impacts of hydrological changes resulting from the retreat of glaciers, or the changes in some mountain (medium confidence) and Arctic ecosystems driven by permafrost thaw (high confidence). (Figure SPM.2a). { TS B.1, Figure TS.5, 2.3, 2.4, 3.4, 3.5, 4.2, 4.3, 4.5, 9.6, 10.4, 11.3, 12.3, 12.8, 13.3, 13.4, 13.10, 14.4, 14.5, 14.6, 15.3, 16.2, CCP1.2, CCP3.2, CCP4.1, CCP5.2, Figure CCP5.4, CCP6.1, CCP6.2, CCP7.2, CCP7.3, CCB EXTREMES, CCB ILLNESS, CCB MOVING PLATE, CCB NATURAL, CCB PALEO, CCB SLR, SROCC 2.3} As for the GBR, I've replied to perhaps a hundred people who didn't understand that "coral cover" alone doesn't prove the GBR is doing fine, and globally, coral reefs are in seriously-deteriorating size and health. More on that later.

@@HealingLifeKwikly - what is the "normal" rate of warming after glaciation? I ask this as palaeontologists have determined that the average rate of warming, or cooling, is about 1°C per century, not, as you imply, 0.05°C per century. We have observed a rise since the coldest period of the last 10,000 years to be about 1°C, over about 150 years; i.e. less than 1°C per century. After the last full glaciation (often erroneously referred to as the last ice age, ignoring that we are still in an ice age), temperatures rose at between 5-8° per century. There are also the Dansgaard-Oeschger events which saw 5-8° warming in 40 years, which have happened many times in paleo-history. Please provide some evidence that the small rise in CO2 that we are witnessing is caused entirely by humans; also, please provide some evidence that this rise in CO2 is going to lead to a mass-extinction event. Nothing we are witnessing is anywhere outside normal natural variations; nothing we are witnessing about climates is going to have any significant effect on the planetary eco-systems. If you can provide some evidence that I might be wrong, I will gladly consider it; however, so far, all you have managed to do is reference a political organisation that is abusing science to drive their particular political agenda.

[@HealingLifeKwikly]

@@robertpayne4033 Thanks for your reply. "I ask this as paleontologists have determined that the average rate of warming, or cooling, is about 1°C per century" No, it's more like 0.06°- 0.14° per century. For example, a recent climate reconstruction of the last 24,000 shows the sharpest warming coming out of the last glaciation was from -7.5° C 17,000 years ago to -1.0° C 11,000 years ago (compared to 1850-1900 baseline). That comes out to 0.093° C warming per century. Meanwhile, we are currently warming the planet at a rate around 2.0° C per century, or roughly 20X the usual rate of warming when coming out of a glaciation, as I originally stated. “We have observed a rise since the coldest period of the last 10,000 years to be about 1°C, over about 150 years; i.e. less than 1°C per century.” I have no idea what that sentence was supposed to mean, but average global temps were quite stable for the 6,000 years leading up to the early 1900s, have increased about 1.3° C since then, and the current decadal rate of warming is around 0.2° C warming per decade. “After the last full glaciation (often erroneously referred to as the last ice age, ignoring that we are still in an ice age), temperatures rose at between 5-8° per century.” NO, they didn’t even rise 5-8 degrees per millennium, as I already pointed out: It took the Earth 6,000 years to warm 6.5 degrees C after the last glaciation. Facts and decimal points matter. “There are also the Dansgaard-Oeschger events which saw 5-8° warming in 40 years, which have happened many times in paleo-history.” Uhhh, Greenland and the North Atlantic experience that amount of warming during D-O events, apparently because it involves a restoration/strengthening of the AMOC, which transfers heat from the tropics to the North Atlantic. However, the North Atlantic is just a small part of the Earth, and while it’s getting warmer, the tropics are getting cooler (because that’s where the heat warming the North Atlantic is being transferred from). Global temps change, but not nearly as fast as we are changing them now. “Please provide some evidence that the small rise in CO2 that we are witnessing is caused entirely by humans.” Uhh, that has been provided by the 6th IPCC Report, which is probably the most exhaustively-researched and carefully vetted scientific report in human history. Look for the report of Working Group I, available free online: It’s over 2000 pages long and backed by over 6,000 research citations, but the Summary Report for Policymakers will get your started. What the science reveals is that humans have increased global CO2 levels by 52% since 1776, and we are currently increasing CO2 levels ~10 times faster than they increased before the worst mass extinction in Earth’s history. Excellent carbon accounting research proves we’re the source, and by the way, CO2 that comes from burning fossil fuels has a different isotopic ratio, so it’s like the proportion of CO2 that we put up there has our “fingerprint” on it. I’ll address the rest later.
