1% of people control 75% of farmland -- 80% of food grows on small farms 4.5% of vehicles are electric, 2% of energy is solar & wind 20% of energy is electricity, 100% renewable electricity = 20% of energy * Direct Impacts of Climate Heating* ▷ Heat stress is reducing crop yields. ▷ Heat stress toll on farmers (sometimes fatal). ▷ Heat stress tolls on livestock (often fatal). ▷ Altered precipitation: not enough rain; drought. ▷ Altered precipitation: too much rain; flooding. ▷ Weather whiplashing between drought and flooding (or heat and cold) ruining crops. ▷ Extreme weather physically damaging crops: hail storms, late Spring frosts, early Fall frosts, early warmth confusing plants to bud prematurely, followed by killing frosts. ▷ Wildfires physically destroying crops and livestock and polluting water supplies. ▷ Smoke and other wildfire pollutants damage crops hundreds of km from the burn areas. ▷ Extreme weather damaging food storage infrastructure, disrupting food transportation systems, breaking down “cold chain” systems. All of these above effects are already cascading into a variety of secondary effects. Secondary Impacts ▷ Crop and farm failures, financing challenges, farmer migration and suicides, general strikes. ▷ Loss of agricultural labour and resource conflicts. ▷ Crop stress causes stress on seeds and seed viability damage, causing poor crop yields in subsequent years. ▷ Drought and sea-level rise causes salinization contamination is soils and farmland, reducing crop yields for years. ▷ Heat, drought, and overuse of pesticides wipes out good beetles, butterflies, bees, and other pollinators. ▷ Changing precipitation patterns leads to increased breeding of locusts and other crop harming pests. ▷ Drought dries out soils leading to wind blown soil loss and desertification. ▷ Drought and decreases glacial water storage and groundwater infiltration, drying up rivers and amplifying water stress in subsequent years. ▷ Torrential rain leading to flooding caused soil erosion, destroys crops and infrastructure, and carries over to subsequent growing seasons. ▷ Crop losses impact feed prices and supply for the following year. -- Beckwith et al 2020 YT Oceans took 89% of the heat and they're going to blow, see Loki's Revenge Green Energy Fraud I don't how to say that in academic gibberish, so I'll just let the gibberish do the talking...

you seem very sure about what you are saying but the thing is that you got exactally the formation system wants you to have,, try to do some real search on our activity before you speak on that you don´t know at all. A Global Conference lasting more than 11 hours translated in 72 languages, having guests as best experts in their fields and all of this done by vollunteers from more than 180 countries around the world, just for the sake of Humanity. Your point is that just because there´s no money involved or any kind of leaders ditating orders on what to do next, Only free will on working together in order to change the paradigm of our defunct consumeristic society into a Creative and Peaceful One with living condictions for everyone, , Doesn´t matter race, color, religion, or any personal afilliation, you just can´t understand You are Smart enought to even try to give a better World for your children and generations after that. CReative Society is the only way out towards Future or there will be no future because we as civilization are at point of no return to destruction. Or you can´t see that as well...

That's the deception in the world. You will not change what is foretold to happen. Global changes are upon us all. The bible says in the latter days there will be wars and rumors of wars. Nation rises against nation and kingdom against kingdom and there will be famines and plagues and pestilences. This will be spawned off by what we see happening already. In the latter days, the Jews will regather in the Holy land. That happened in 1948. Other things prophesied is technology and the world connectivity ability. People fail to acknowledge any of it because they are born into it. They never even see the facts. As we move forward in time, the succession of events will be closer and closer together much like a woman in labor. The world was exterminated by flood one time. God says He will never destroy man by a flood again. This time it will be by fire.

Climate "experts" are in denial of their failure to accurately forecast the climate: Since we've seen climate forecasts from the IPCC proven to be wrong - year after year after year - since we've seen Al Gore''s climate "experts" were wrong, since climate forecasts from "professor emeritus" Guy McPherson have proven wrong - and he admits it, since Harvard's Michael Mann was exposed as a "fraud" in court, since the insanity of the "climate experts" goes on and on and on ... since their detachment from reality and their denial of their ignorance and pompous "programming" is conspicuous to anyone with a functioning brain. Since forecasts for the meltdown of the Antarctic ice - from glaciologists - went from "thousands of years into the future" to "a hundred years from now" to "in our lifetime" to "within a decade" all in under four years of forecasts, and since the timeline for CO2 in ice cores is conspicuous disinfo because the true timeline for the Greenland and Antarctic ice is documented in historic records - and corroborated by numerous sources - since the paradigm of chemistry that is taught to the "scientists" is also intentional disinfo, since the timeline for our Earth that is taught to "scientists" is another psy-op of epic proportions, based on ludicrous theories about pangaea, continental drift, continental collision, the stratified layers of the Grand Canyon, the horror of the Siberian Traps, the cataclysms known as Eltanin and Nuuanu, etc., their nonsense about the Yucatan Peninsula and the extinction of the dinosaurs ... since the timeline for ALL of this is documented in historic records, including the timeline - and the forces responsible - for the broken and subducted tectonic plates, the timeline for the formation of our ocean trenches and archipelago islands, the timeline for the massive water erosion across our continents and islands, the timeline for the formation of the Grand Canyon, the timeline for the Siberian and Deccan Traps, the timeline for Eltanin and Nuuanu ... all of this is documented in historic records ... Theories about the history of our Earth are unnecessary because the timeline for our continents, oceans, mountains, cataclysms, Earth's expansion, Earth's climate and Earth's origins are all documented in hundreds of independent historic records, written in over a dozen languages from all across our Earth and corroborated by reports from the Indigenous and Aborigines - and since their timeline is corroborated by thousands of other independent sources while "scientists" prefer theories, their failure to develop a conscience, their love of pontificating their insanity on their very wobbly pedestals - with their head in the clouds - is horrifying - because the unintelligent fake science gods that graduated with their C average from low level institutions with minimal entrance requirements are not fooling anyone but the ignorant.
