This is how feedback loops behave. Climate scientists have been ignoring them in their models for decades, now it is becoming too obvious to ignore. They still don't want to acknowledge the endpoint.
Thanks for the heads up again. Nothing has changed since last time. 👍

Why do you target them? They do fucking nothing but feeling superior to you
Because, at the behest of their oligarch masters, they are among the most vocal climate change deniers in existence. Is this really news to you?
So? Why attack those who oligarchy wants you to attack
The graph shows "only" 0,5° C increase over the past decade, but it feels like way more IMO.
I live in Denmark, and we used to have winters with constant frost for about a month around January/February.
The past few years it's been very few days with frost, and not even a month of consistent frost during nights!
I absolutely agree with the graph in that it's become way more noticeable this past decade.
That's the real problem in the end. We're really only able to survive In a fairly tight band of weather. So even small movements out of our band feels terrible to us. The unnerving truth is the planet is fine. Life on the planet is fine. It's survived much colder and much hotter. The humans on earth on the other hand...
Life on the planet is not fine. We are in a mass extinction event after all. It is "fine" as in life will continue to exist without us and the millions of other species which are going to perish, but that is hardly the definition of "fine".
If we get runaway climate change it's the end of ALL life on earth, not just humans. Humans will probably survive the longest, because we can create artificial means to sustain us.
Humans are already surviving from Sahara to beyond the arctic circles, I don't think other species are capable of that, except maybe bacteria.
Of course the planet doesn't give a shit, it's just a big rock. But to say the earth is fine is wrong unless you don't consider life a factor at all.
The Holocene extinction event is just going to be the sixth one so far, and it certainly won't be the last. As the saying goes, "life finds a way".
We just won't be around to see it.
When the seas are boiling and everything else is hotter than that, I don't think so.
If that was the case, why isn't there life on Venus?
Definitely not the end of all life on Earth. Most of it sure, but there are certainly living organism which are going to survive, just like they did the other times this had happened on Earth.
All that life living on chemical soup from the geothermal vents at the bottom of the ocean ain't gonna give a fuck about temperature fluctuations far above.
The earth core is hot too, if the surface gets hot everything in between gets hot too.
Naw, look at the dinosaurs and the ice age. Life evolves, life survives. The life forms we know of today are dead and who knows what life will look like in the future. Never forget water bears exist. Even if life needs to crawl back up from the ocean it will. The humans are definitely fucked.
The sun has 7 to 8 billion years left. That's a long time for life to return after we've fucked ourselves out of existence.
Well part of this is because Europe is in fact heating up faster than the world average
Global mean temperature between 2015 and 2024 was 1.24 to 1.28°C warmer than the pre-industrial level, which makes it the warmest decade on record. European land temperatures have increased even faster over the same period by 2.19 to 2.26°C, depending on the dataset used. European environment agency
Yeah the original plan to keep it below 2°C is toast.

It’s just a natural immune reaction. Trying to burn us off with fever
World News
A community for discussing events around the World
Rules:
-
Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
- Post news articles only
- Video links are NOT articles and will be removed.
- Title must match the article headline
- Not United States Internal News
- Recent (Past 30 Days)
- Screenshots/links to other social media sites (Twitter/X/Facebook/Youtube/reddit, etc.) are explicitly forbidden, as are link shorteners.
-
Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. The key points in 1-2 paragraphs is allowed (even encouraged!), but large segments of articles posted in the body will result in the post being removed. If you have to stop and think "Is this fair use?", it probably isn't. Archive links, especially the ones created on link submission, are absolutely allowed but those that avoid paywalls are not.
-
Rule 3: Opinions articles, or Articles based on misinformation/propaganda may be removed. Sources that have a Low or Very Low factual reporting rating or MBFC Credibility Rating may be removed.
-
Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, anti-religious, or ableist will be removed. “Ironic” prejudice is just prejudiced.
-
Posts and comments must abide by the lemmy.world terms of service UPDATED AS OF 10/19
-
Rule 5: Keep it civil. It's OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It's NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
-
Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.
-
Rule 7: We didn't USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you're posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
