"Climate Endgame: Exploring catastrophic climate change scenarios" - Kemp et al, 2022.

"....the likelihood of extreme climate change, discuss why understanding bad-to-worst cases is vital, articulate reasons for concern about catastrophic outcomes........ "

Experts in international security predicted that climate change would produce extreme nationalist governments using force against vast migrations of climate refugees.

This is the "Armed Lifeboat Scenario", individual richer countries being the armed lifeboats.

We are already drifting into this.

From FB. Climate models, getting it right, despite people saying they never got anything right.

Trump is a bad actor.

Trump is an algorithm.

The President is a fake account. He is pretending to be America First, but his true mission is to do the bidding of other countries. To destroy us from the inside.

Still reeling from the Stanford report on Brexit. Reduced GDP by up to 8% and investment by as much as 18%. The UK Treasury would have £40 billion more each year if Britain had remained in the EU. Devastating self-immolation.

I’d have thought nothing cuts more against our precious British values than selling out your country for Russian bribes…

And yet Reform, the right‑wing press, and all those self‑styled guardians of these values have nothing to say

…funny that.

Burning fossil fuels causes the climate to change and many extreme weather events to become more severe. #fact

People don't want to know that the future cannot include eg fossil fuels or livestock farming or mass aviation.

So they blank it out, or say it can be solved by planting more trees. It can't.

Not too long ao, cancer was not mentioned - it was too awful.

Climate chaos is in a similar place now.

‘Within the climate movement itself it is largely ignored’ 🥩🥛🍗 🙈🙉🙊

This failure is why the #ClimateMovement is itself a failure of the highest magnitude & why nonVegan climate activism is not only a joke, but an active part of the problem. Either walk the walk or stfu.
‘We’ve passed 7 of 9 planetary boundaries and forests are vanishing, yet the climate movement refuses to name the number one driver of deforestation.’

Heat pumps are the most efficiency heating technology ever invented.

That's because they harvest, compress and transport pre-existing heat from the air, the ground or the water.

Compared to a gas boiler heat pumps deliver ~4x more heat for each unit of energy inout.
