One of the major drivers of the exceptional heat building within Earth’s atmosphere has reached levels beyond anything humans have ever experienced, officials announced on Thursday. Carbon dioxide, the gas that accounts for the majority of global warming caused by human activities, is accumulating “faster than ever,” scientists from NOAA, the Scripps Institution of Oceanography and the University of California San Diego found.
“Over the past year, we’ve experienced the hottest year on record, the hottest ocean temperatures on record, and a seemingly endless string of heat waves, droughts, floods, wildfires and storms,” NOAA Administrator Rick Spinrad said in a press release. “Now we are finding that atmospheric CO2 levels are increasing faster than ever.”
When do we eat the rich and begin sabotaging these assholes private jets?
Sorry best we can do is misunderstand the root causes and misdirect our rage to marginalized people and turn to full blown fascism
And they’re banning tracking private jets.
Which in turn leads to war, which destroys the environment tenfold, making sure even the slim chance of humanity coming through this as anything resembling civilisation even slimmer. We’re thoroughly fucked. But hey, we created sooo much value for shareholders!
And stop dredging the ocean
There’s gotta be people who have nothing to lose who are willing to start doing crazy fucked up shit, even if dying in the process.
I wonder how many there are, and what the spark would be for them to start going nuts.
But maybe also, there just aren’t that many willing or rock bottom yet. Maybe we’re mostly still comfortable, albeit unhappy. Might take a few more decades of business as usual.
Bread and circuses.
Most of those people are on the right fighting the valiant fight against 15 minute cities.
Wait… we aren’t supposed to eat them yet?
…uh oh
You can start now.
Fun fact: Teton County, Wyoming has the most billionaires per capita. Their jets are parked at the airport.
Do with this information what you will.
I like the cut of your jib.
