Some on this site have stated wrongly that extinctions are actually declining since 1900. This is not true. It can easily be fact-checked. Here is a quote from the Royal Society as one example: One of the largest effects of humans on the natural world has been to raise the rate of extinction of species far above natural levels. This began many thousands of years ago, and as a result the human-caused loss of global biodiversity was already significant before the modern era. Now, the extinction rate is accelerating, biodiversity is in rapid decline, and many ecosystem processes are being degraded or lost.

The likelihood of the entire human population having this paradigm shift is perhaps very close to zero, at least in the time left to do it. With this in mind, why are we not talking about what would happen if we don’t shift our ways in time? What are the real world scenarios of climate refugees, sea level rise, food production interruptions through climate stresses, what food will our children be eating and will they be fighting each other for it? Will the countries with the biggest sticks take control of global food production by force, will nut jobs try and reduce the population through bio-weaponry, or will others push nuke buttons? We need to be honest here, everyone alive today has only known Goldilocks living conditions and if these shift substantially, as I believe tipping points may effect, then we need to have plans and skills taught to the young to manage it (how to fix things, grow things, repurpose things, communicate new ideas without fear, self defence, regional defence, health knowledge, working as small communities in contact with each other sharing new knowledge.

It is common to believe that the last two hundred years of relative climate stability is something normal, but if we extend our gaze the climate looks far from stable, and we can trace human history through climate variability. Nations and empires have risen and fallen as rains have moved, lakes and rivers dried up, and agriculture failed, what is happening is not a new phenomenon. The current increase in rainfall across Africa, could be an anomaly, or it could be the return of a former pattern ? After all Africa once had a thriving river transport system connecting the oceans with great lakes, food production was high, and great empires existed, ancient maps describe this as do ancient texts. The world wasn't connected in the instantaneous way it is now, so when climate shifts happened it was viewed as localised phenomena, and there were winners and losers, but we adapted, and will adapt again to climate variability. In the past societies would blame their gods, or neighbours, or in more advanced civilizations, the variabilities of the cosmos and the solar activity. But now because as Nietzsche said " we have killed God " , we blame human activity and Co2, ignoring that our own science tells us that the global average temperature was 20°c during the Carboniferous, and Co2 was 1500 ppm, where as now it's 12°C and 407 ppm Co2, life was abundant during the Carboniferous, so much so that the remnants of that life formed the carbon that fuelled the industrial Revolution, and lifted the majority of us out of poverty, so that we instead of subsisting, could try to understand the weather 😊

"It is common to believe that the last two hundred years of relative climate stability is something normal, but if we extend our gaze the climate looks far from stable," Well, average global temps had been quite stable for the last 6,000 years and were supposed to be quite stable for the next 50,000 years, and that stability is what allowed civilizations to emerge. Here's some data to illustrate how incredibly unusual what humans have done is. Due to man-made global warming, the Earth is now the warmest on average that it has been in ~125,000 years, and we are warming the planet around 38 times faster than it usually warms when coming out of an ice age. That rapid rate of warming is very harmful/deadly for species and the ecosystems that all life on Earth--including us--depends on. Due to our emissions, CO2 levels are now the highest they have been in ~14 million years and we are increasing CO2 levels 10. times faster than they increased before the worst mass extinction event in Earth's history. Large changes in CO2 levels have been the main "kill mechanism" for extinction events in Earth's past. " But now because as Nietzsche said " we have killed God " , we blame human activity and Co2," I hate to burst your bubble, but none of this has anything to do with religion or superstitious thinking. Thousands of research studies and 40+ years of quite accurate climate models prove that our emissions caused ~98% of global warming since 1900. "our own science tells us that the global average temperature was 20°c during the Carboniferous, and Co2 was 1500 ppm" That's totally irrelevant. The sun was dimmer then than it is now, partially offsetting the effects of higher CO2. Also, Earth had different species and ecosystems then, and the ecosystems that all life on Earth NOW are dependent on are adapted to CO2 levels of 300 ppm or lower. Change those levels rapidly and substantially and most life on Earth will die off. That's just how the laws of nature work. P.S. The average global temp now is actually around 15 degrees C.

@@patrickball2493 "The climate crisis is due to 1/ natural and cyclical events occurring on the SUN and in the OCEANS .2/ The current pole migration/ weakening of magnetic field which protects the earth from cosmic radiation from space." Sorry pal, but thousands of research studies and 40+ years of quite accurate climate models prove that human activity--mostly our emissions but also deforestation that also causes loss of biodiversity--caused ~98% of all global warming since 1900. The false ideas that this has anything to do with natural cycles or the Earth's magnetic field was de-bunked decades ago. "The earth's atmosphere is absolutely massive. Nitrogen makes up the biggest portion." As the world's leading climate scientists would tell you, it makes zero difference how much oxygen and nitrogen there are because they don't react with IR. "CO2 is a trace gas which makes up about a quarter" No, CO2 only represents 423 ppm, but despite being a trace gas, it is THE main atmospheric control knob of global temps--in large part because it also influences levels of water vapor and methane. Without CO2, the Earth would be over 50 degrees F colder, mostly frozen, and probably lifeless.. "Majority C02 is due to natural processes in the ecosystem and man's contribution through emissions by continuing to use fossil fuels is tiny." You are confusing two different data points. The Earth's total annual carbon cycle is MUCH larger than our annual emissions, but before we started burning fossil fuels, that cycle was perfectly balanced. Thus, all our emissions are EXCESS emissions that disrupt the carbon cycle, and although they are only 3-4% of the size of the total carbon cycle, since 1776, those EXCESS emissions have raised global CO2 levels by 52%. Put differently, 34% of all CO2 in the air came from our emissions. Take care.

we do the same , 1000 vessels constructed over 15 years as well as 1200 land based transmission sites and 1000 tuned resonance climate monitoring and or transmission sats after all this is a global climate defence ,SRM , Global weather control system , That could be replicated and updated in 60 years , I say 60 years because that is the lifetime expectancy of the nuclear climate battle ships and the land based transmission sites boats/ Vessels to fight climate change via ocean iron fertilisation and atmospheric electrochemical reactions 200 mt long 60 mtr wide super liner s 1000 of them the battleship s of the war against climate change nuclear powered 500 MW each of mobile tuned resonance frequency modulation , The variation and combinations are endless Oceans Starting with large sets anodes and cathodes mounted to the bottom of the boats generating iron sulphate via electrochemical RF reaction ,stimulating and generating the phytoplankton to feed on co2 Sequestering up to 10 GT

biosphere/Troposphere clouds for SRM , Charging the dimethyl sulphates and cloud nuclei from the ocean to form clouds Stratosphere Next on our tool list is project Lucy , ship mounted microwave transmitter to target methane adaptation by targeting the covalent bond and un couple the c H bonds and converting the methane to co2 and diamonds , The demands also generate a SRM deflection type reaction in the stratosphere www.scribd.com/document/136405901/Project-Lucy- Extended-Version-4 This takes care of the biosphere and the stratosphere now for the ionosphere Ionosphere Ship deck mounted Haap type radio transmitters 160 aerials to target the ionosphere for artificial plasma cloud generation to deflect in coming solar radiation we would also use the RF and plasma generation to convert the covalent bond of co2 and break into c witch falls to the earth and feed s the soil and 02 witch rises from the to form ozone,, While also stimulating phytoplankton in the ocean generating more oxygen that will eventually converted to 03 ozone to plug the gaps in the ozone layer , This could rectorate /adptate up 40 GT of co2 per year , this would be a real game changer with such a scenario allowing us to return to pre in industrial co2 levels of 280 PPM and a safe and stable climate WE could also use the haap array to charge existing particles in the atmosphere to vibrate and deflect solar radiation , No need to add any more forego particulate we already have put enough up there , I would suggest we target the methane and co2 molecules to begin with WE could also turn the system up and down almost instantly to accommodate the solar flare scenario or polar flip , during these time the magnetosphere is extremely depleted The combination of these four RF/ plasma generation technologies could also be used for the weather generation and control network, I would suggest a global weather control network , Utilising the 1000 boats and 1200 land based transmitters , ,5 scalar wave ion transmitters per country 200 countries to generate low level cloud SRM and generate the transpiration hydrological process water movement in the atmospheric rivers can be easily directed to places of most needs . drought /forest fires deserts , dry third world countries/food production areas , as well as each country having 5 scalor emitters they would also have a haap transmitter each forget about charging syress clouds were going to redesign aircraft fuel so we don't have the sulphur the soot and the pollutants being emitted , this will save lives , a bio fuel would have to be developed and manufactured to clean up the air ways , we could also take this opportunity to redesign the vapour trails to better serve the control network and the planets bio system A satellite monitoring and atmospheric adaptation scenario with 1000 ft x ft cube type sats or even up to 1 x 1 mtr cube sats emitting tuned resonance frequencies that can be tuned and programmed from

with gem set back up on 2 x 2 KM sites the haaps to be at least the equivalent to Burbank's Alaska site while the boats will be nuclear or oxygen powered generating 500 MW of tuned resonance frequency transmission capability This is the way of the future especially if we can conj our oxygen power generation The planet will be around for billion of future years but the atmosphere wont be , so we generate artificial atmosphere now NO refuelling of vessels with dirty bunker fuels [nuclear]no emissions no mining or manufacturing of iron sulphate s for ocean iron fertilisation and no mining or manufacturing of iron chloride for enhanced methane oxidisation ,No dumping of lime stone for enhance ocean alkalinity , no spraying of sea water for marine cloud bighting and no spraying of particle into the atmosphere to be charged vis RF / micro eave /next rad , All can be achieved today via electro chemical reactions aboard our climate battle ships with all but no carbon emissions ,and no dumping of substances into the ocean with the associated mining/transportation and distribution costs , and no breaking of the London protocol on dumping substances at sea , These boats and land based installation will be at the wars front door fighting climate change on the front line , This is only one in many tools that will be required to defeat climate change This scenario can reduce the global average temperature by up to 5 DG , by simply turning it up or down , like a thermostat , able to react instantly to space weather events and volcanoe eruptions and events, Storms cyclone s all

Extinction rates (1500-2009) peaked around 1900 at 50 per decade. Extinction rates have declined dramatically to around 4 to per decade in the 2000s. So the extinction rate is very low: 900 known lost species for 2.1 million known species in 500 years (IUCN), so from observations there are an average of slightly less than 2 species lost every year. Out of a known species total of over 2 million. That gives an annual percentage loss of less than 0.0001%. That's background extinction. At that frequency it will take over 930,000 years to reach 80% extinction of species experienced at the K-T boundary that saw the extinction of the dinosaurs. Of course, extinction is a natural part of the evolution of life on this planet with the average lifespan of a species thought to be about 1 million years (cf 930,000). It is estimated that 99.9% of all plant and animal species that have existed have gone extinct. It should also be noted that no taxonomic families have become extinct in the last 500 years. In fact marine diversity at the taxonomic level of families is the highest it has ever been in the Earth's long history (see Sepkoski Curve). In a review of 16,009 species, most populations (85%) did not show significant trends in abundance, and those that did were balanced between winners (8%) and losers (7%) (Dornelas et al, 2019). There have been only 9 species of continental birds and mammals confirmed extinct since 1500 (Loehle, 2011). No global marine animals have become extinct in the past 50 years (McCauley et, 2015 using IUCN data). There is no climate crisis.

“Terrible” is the way capitalism/consumerism treats the planet as a whole. “Horrible” is war and its effects on the planet and all its inhabitants. “Monotonic blabber that is impossible to comprehend” is what comes out of most politician’s mouths NOT this man. Show some respect.
