David Attenborough on climate change: 'The world will be transformed'

[@vikitheviki]

"Trump: I don't believe in man made climate change". You don't have to believe anything, that's not your job. Your job is to listen to the facts presented by scientists and act accordingly upon those. That's what would happen in a sane world not driven by corporate profit and personal wishes.

Trump is unfortunately right. If you were smart like Trump, you would know, that there is no scientific evidence for a direct correlation between human influence and nature. So, do not worry and be happy about Trump saying no, when they want to charge us for breathing air.

When humanity faces a future that sounds like a Hollywood disaster movie, people switch off.. people stick their heads in the sand, and they keep it there. That almost universal trait will bring about the precise events that people are too afraid to contemplate. What we need is the intellectual and emotional bravery to face all the destructive complexity of what we are causing on the planet. Unfortunately, capitalism itself sits as a huge obstacle on that long road.

[@imsidetracted]

[@williamwillaims]

Depending on how high the greenhouse gasses go, we could tip the planet's atmosphere in to a Venus like situation. Where it's ability to self regulate is not possible. The idea that the planet will "be ok" is not founded on any thing tangible. It's uncharted territory in terms of the speed and rise in changes to the atmosphere.

[@gangatsa1577]

@@beepbopboop7727 sadly, you are correct we evolved but in that evolution we have become weak

[@danielbrooks5683]

My understanding of this issue is that it takes decades for the full impact of greenhouse gases to be realized, from the date they are released into the atmosphere, so as bad as things are now (for humans) much worse conditions are "baked in" so to speak. It is tempting to just say "we're screwed" and leave it at that, but as long as we are presently existing, we are obliged to accept and cope with the world as it is day to day. My intuition is guiding me to a more nomadic, and minimalistic lifestyle, ie. summer of 2017 wildfire and high temps in the Northeast, and B.C. so I moved to the southwest, now in 2018 perhaps the Oregon coast will be my refuge. In 2015 I made the wrong call and was driven out of Lake co. Cal, by wildfire, from which I found comfort and safety at Mt. Shasta. The days of staying in one place have come to an end, just ask the folks in Bellair or Houston, etc. It simply makes no sense to put down roots in any apparently stable community, when we know that if the climate is unstable then any place you choose is subject to sudden widespread devastation.

It is a complex problem, not easy to wrap my head around. I am suspicious of the motives of some supporters of climate change initiatives, like Noam Chompsky, who is left of Bernie Sanders and hates Capitalism. But I hear there is about a 95% consensus among climate change scientists that not only is climate change real, but is mostly caused by people. The climate has always changed during earth's history, but we have been told that today's rate of change is unprecedented, and I think I believe it. We have already passed peak oil production in the world, that is, no matter how much we drill, we will not receive over more oil than we do now. We will have to turn to renewable energy sources as oil runs out anyway, I think we need to expedite the process as much as possible. The problem cannot be solved without public support, big business, and government involvement. But individuals can help. Put solar on your roof. Buy smaller cars, or electric if you can afford it. Take less jet trips. Let your representatives know you support the rapid development of renewable energy. Even BP and Chevron are looking into developing renewable energy sources. They have been part of the problem, but they can be part of the solution. If we transition to renewable energy as a national priority, maybe we can turn this around in time.

@Andrew. We really need a major effort comparsble to preparing for WWII however many people still do not or will not recognise the existential threat to all of us.

Nuclear physics and geology are my fields, so I am not a super "climate scientist" like Cher and Noam, but apparently I know a couple of things they do not. The sun is the main driver of climate on earth, period. The sun has been in a Grand Solar Maximum for about one hundred years. The earth warmed during this period, but now the Grand Solar Maximum has ended. We are now are in a period of solar minimum, Cycle 24 was 50% weaker than cycle 23 and NASA says cycle 25 will be about 50% weaker than cycle 24. That means the earth will now cool, as we all seen over the last winters as we slid to the bottom of cycle 24, and since we are just bouncing along the bottom of cycle 24 this winter is going to be worse, it is unavoidable. Cycle 25 will be bad, cold weather crop losses, flooding, shortened growing seasons and amazing hail will no doubt lead to famines. The scary part is no one is giving a forecast for cycle 26 except Zharkova and a couple in that camp, and if cycle 26 is not a rebound our civilization may be in grave danger.

why is cher being treated as a professional opinion here?

[@mindfield7]

Cher and the Hulk can turn back time and smash this problem. So I am not concerned. Seriously, how stupid do you think we are...

[@concong4183]

Who cares what Cher thinks? When they start bringing in the famous actors, you know it's a hoax.

When I hear Trump say that, I wanna cry. How can he have an opinion on FACTS?

[@monsieurfortuna9952]

Rich should pay more, like Cher?! What she has done in her life? Last time I checked her net worth is huge.

But still everybody throws plastic waste in the streets and parks!

Climate change happened before and it will happen again and is now being experienced...I'm living on a climate changed area formerly ice sheet and , more recently forest. There were bears and giant ungulates...all now long gone. Climate changed before without any rapid increase in population or industrial output.

Climate change has previously occurred due to orbital tilt, extensive volcanism, and slow changes in solar output and continental position which affected ocean circulation. The current rapid climate change is due to greenhouse gas emissions from human activity.
