Global temperatures are now expected to rise as much as 4 degrees Celsius, or more than 7 degrees Fahrenheit, by the end of the century.
That has given new weight to what some people call geoengineering, though that term has become so contentious its proponents now prefer the term “climate interventions.”

The power of billions of nuclear bombs did not kill the dinosaurs.Major extinction events:
1. Ordovician-Silurian Extinction:
Estimated Loss: Roughly 85% of marine species.
2. Late Devonian Extinction:
Estimated Loss: Around 70% of marine species.
3. End-Permian Extinction (The Great Dying):
Estimated Loss: About 96% of marine species and 70% of terrestrial vertebrate species.
4. Triassic-Jurassic Extinction:
Estimated Loss: Around 70% of terrestrial and marine species.
5. Cretaceous-Paleogene (K-Pg) Extinction:
Estimated Loss: About 75% of all species.It is not the end of THE world, it's the end of A world.
- As a particularly self-involved species, the end of us IS the end of the world. To us, at least. I'm sure the birds will continue dinosauring around...Nairn

Thought i'd give this 10 minutes to see what the rub was. I've not be so alarmed since I was a young teen in the mid-eighties. The reality of Nuclear war is utterly terrifying.
6 Minutes for one man to decide if the world ends or not. Who would you trust to make that decision?
If N Korea decided to go rogue and fire an ICBM there's no way the US can respond without Russia thinking it's an attack on them.
The Russian early warning satellite system often confuses sunlight for ICBMs...
...and there's so much more hideousness.

"You're being targeted by disinformation networks that are vastly more effective than you realize. And they're making you more hateful and depressed."
https://www.reddit.com/r/GenZ/co…
"TL;DR: You know that Russia and other governments try to manipulate people online. But you almost certainly don't know just how effectively orchestrated influence networks are using social media platforms to make you -- individually-- angry, depressed, and hateful toward each other. Those networks' goal is simple: to cause Americans and other Westerners -- especially young ones -- to give up on social cohesion and to give up on learning the truth, so that Western countries lack the will to stand up to authoritarians and extremists."

Yes. And I think Western countries have already lost precious time to counter this, are they even doing something against it? Seems like no. Now add AI in the mix : we're fucked big time.

Critical Atlantic Ocean current system is showing early signs of collapse.
A crucial system of ocean currents may already be on course to collapse, according to a new report, with alarming implications for sea level rise and global weather — leading temperatures to plunge dramatically in some regions and rise in others.
Using exceptionally complex and expensive computing systems, scientists found a new way to detect an early warning signal for the collapse of these currents, according to the study published Friday in the journal Science Advances. And as the planet warms, there are already indications it is heading in this direction.
The Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (the AMOC) — of which the Gulf Stream is part — works like a giant global conveyor belt, taking warm water from the tropics toward the far North Atlantic, where the water cools, becomes saltier and sinks deep into the ocean, before spreading southward.
The currents carry heat and nutrients to different areas of the globe and play a vital role in keeping the climate of large parts of the Northern Hemisphere relatively mild.
For decades, scientists have been sounding the alarm on the circulation’s stability as climate change warms the ocean and melts ice, disrupting the balance of heat and salt that determines the currents’ strength.
While many scientists believe the AMOC will slow under climate change, and could even grind to a halt, there remains huge uncertainty over when and how fast this could happen. The AMOC has only been monitored continuously since 2004.

UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres warned on Wednesday that the world is entering an era of chaos due to multiple crises, including the wars in Gaza and Ukraine, and the climate crisis.
He also decried the unprecedented divisions in the Security Council, which is paralyzed due to geo-political fissures.
Guterres called for major reforms to the Security Council, the international financial system, and the global response to complex global shocks.
He also stressed the need to address the climate crisis and to develop ethical norms for the development of artificial intelligence.
Here are some of the key points from the article:
Guterres said that the world is facing a "perfect storm" of crises, including the wars in Gaza and Ukraine, the climate crisis, and the COVID-19 pandemic.
He warned that these crises are leading to a "new era of chaos" and that the world is "sleepwalking towards disaster."
Guterres decried the unprecedented divisions in the Security Council, which is unable to take action on major crises due to the veto power of its permanent members.
He called for major reforms to the Security Council, including expanding its membership and making it more representative of the global community.
Guterres also stressed the need to address the climate crisis, which he called "the defining challenge of our time."
He called for urgent action to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and to help developing countries adapt to the effects of climate change.
Guterres also called for the development of ethical norms for the development of artificial intelligence, which he said has the potential to be both a powerful tool for good and a major threat to humanity.
The article concludes by saying that Guterres's speech is a "stark warning" about the state of the world and the need for urgent action to address the multiple crises that we face.
