Summary
The global goal to limit temperature rise to 1.5°C is now deemed “deader than a doornail,” with 2024 likely to surpass this threshold, marking the hottest year on record.
Despite agreements under the Paris accord, emissions continue to climb, pushing the world toward 2.7°C warming and increasing risks of catastrophic climate impacts.
Experts warn of nearing irreversible climate tipping points, such as ice sheet collapse and Amazon dieback.
While progress in clean energy offers hope, scientists emphasize urgent emission reductions, as every fraction of a degree matters to limit damage.
Ok, so our species is doomed, but can we just take the time to appreciate that for an insignificant amount of time during existence of the human race, some people got very, very rich? Doesnt that make this all worthwhile?
What irks me more is how people get banned for organizing what will save us, killing the fuck out of the rich. We need open rebellion from admins/mods to allow and encourage that kind of talk, so that we can get some seriously large groups of people organized and marching to that drum beat. Anacyclosis NEEDS to happen, read Polybius, violence is actually the cure from a historical standpoint. Nothing else has worked.
