Climate Change and Extreme Weather

[@allysandrailagan327]

Hi guys! Go check out Ecosia. It is a search engine that plants a tree for every 45 searches u make. These trees are planted in places that are extremely vulnerable to climate change. If you think this is fake, u can always check out their KZbin channel. Stay safe guys :) bai bai

It's 53 degree's in parts of India and Pakistan, its been above 45oC since April. If the above slides are based on model runs where RCP 8.5 is the worst case scenario then your slides are under cooking reality as we are tracking above that model run. The jet stream has already been altered, we can't slow down the AMOC by 15% and not expect it to have a dramatic effect. Additionally Siberia has had forest fires and Greenlands coastlines are sweltering by avg comparisons. Oh and you may want to tell the people of Ellicott City they need to move the most vulnerable parts of the city, as the once in a hundred year flood events in their neck of the woods will shake down to an average of one every 3 to 5 years going forward. A river wants to run through it, and not even God can stop it. But take heart, they are far from alone globally speaking.

Provarication the American disease, took this guy 10 minutes to cut to the chase, and even then he hedges every statement, and by the way the jet stream HAS ALREADY ALTERED, this is the cause of weather patterns sticking around for longer. i appreciate there are lots of factors involved that influence weather and climate but this approach to lecturing will not open this subject up to the general public who need to know this stuff and help put pressure on politicians and decision makers. Money motivates people (unfortunatly) so, talk about how the terrible state the climate is in, will hit people in their pockets. raising insurance costs, energy costs, food costs etc.

You seem an excitable person, not to mention an anti-capitalist. Unfortunately it's capitalists you need to persuade of your very clear and well made points about the state of the climate. You have to get through to the people who disagree with you if you want things to change. Snide comments never made a debate and do little to persuade. Or perhaps you are happy with ranting and hating. That sound a lot like capitalist behaviour to me.
