“There’s no ambiguity about the data,” said Gavin Schmidt, a climatologist and the director of the NASA Goddard Institute for Space Studies. “So really, it’s a question of attribution.”
Understanding what specific physical processes are behind these temperature records will help scientists improve their climate models and better predict temperatures in the future.
Woohoo! The beginning of the end!!
It doesn’t have to be. That’s entirely a human decision.
That’s up to us. Get involved. Join an activist group, or a political campaign. Change policy. Show your neighbors how it’s possible to cut fossil fuels out of your life.
It’s entirely a billionaire decision.
Most of us humans have no power over this.
“I alone can’t change anything” is a hastily spoken excuse to shift responsibility onto others. But you are responsible for your life and your actions.
8 billion people on the planet understanding our future and changing the way we live is possible. Be a good example, because you can.
My wife told me I was a doomer gloomer for not wanting to have kids due to climate uncertainty. I wanted to adopt instead.
I’m terrified of how the world will look over the next century for my 6 month old son.
Assuming you’re asking in good faith, the difference would be helping someone through this hell-hole that’s already here, and was disadvantaged at the start. As opposed to bringing someone in.
The user is interpreting it as the OP wanted to not have kids because of climate uncertainty - did not want to raise a kid that would have to deal with the climate. So instead they adopted a kid to raise someone else’s kid in a world where they would have to deal with the climate.
I think OP is implying reduction of population but the comment kinda reads weird.
what’s happening?
If you read the article, climate change + El Nino + reduced aerosols in the atmosphere + a volcano eruption + a yet unknown factor, which the article is about.
Instead of the bathwater cooling off after the tubs been filled, its heating up. We don’t understand why.
We will be a footnote in Earth’s history, a dead branch on the tree of evolution
Narrator: The world became uninhabitable. But for a short time, it created tremendous value for our shareholders.
