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. 👍

Typical maga right winger.

Why do you target them? They do fucking nothing but feeling superior to you

[-] breecher@sh.itjust.works 10 points 17 hours ago

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?

[-] vivalapivo@lemmy.today 1 points 17 hours ago

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...

[-] breecher@sh.itjust.works 5 points 17 hours ago* (last edited 17 hours ago)

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".

[-] Buffalox@lemmy.world 6 points 1 day ago

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?

[-] breecher@sh.itjust.works 2 points 17 hours ago

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.

[-] Buffalox@lemmy.world 1 points 21 hours ago

The earth core is hot too, if the surface gets hot everything in between gets hot too.

[-] Joncash2@lemmy.ml 7 points 1 day ago

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.

[-] TransplantedSconie@lemm.ee 5 points 1 day ago

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.
