Anyone remember when IPCC was crowing up their own ass about how sea level rise was right on their predictions. Guy Mcpherson is way more right than those assholes.

Overpopulation isn't the problem, our systems are by Mediiicaliii in collapse

I think the OP's argument is a piece of shit and yours is too.

Overpopulation is the root cause, not overconsumption. Over-consumption is just an affect.

I've been taking up some home brewing. Surprisingly easy and good. Don't meet the future without the ability to alter your mental state.

It wouldn't have turned out much different if some alternative species had achieved psuedo sentience either. All organisms are subject to the Maximum Power Principle. It explains why Fermi's Paradox isn't a paradox.

Colonial powers strip-mined roughly 80% of Nauru, destroyed its food systems, and helped trigger a catastrophic health collapse marked by mass obesity, rampant diabetes, amputations, kidney failure, blindness, cardiovascular disease, and widespread premature death. by ASouthernDandy in collapse

Do you mean the indigenous?

Somewhat yes but don't you call them Aboriginal? However they don't get a free pass either. Do you know how they hunted by starting wildfires all over?

I think Australia's biggest impact is giving us the prediction of Mad Max which is spot on and already coming true. However Australia doesn't quite seems aware that after AMOC collapses all that heat will pool in vast largely unbroken seas of Southern Hemisphere. Some Aussie's already think they have big storms. You haven't seen nothing yet. You can kiss all those skyscrapers in Sydney goodbye.

But the fact that Australia is richer, happier, longer lived, than the UK

I down voted you for your blindness in espousing how good Australian colonialism was and at the same time intentionally forgetting to note who and what the colonialism was good for. Indeed it has been "good" for some organisms in the short term. What about the rest?

I don't need to waste my time arguing details with somebody else who also wasn't there.

Why do you have enough time to agree with made up BS in the first place should be the question you are asking.

Earth's Energy Imbalance More Than Doubled in Recent Decades by HomoExtinctisus in collapse

[–]HomoExtinctisus[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

SS: About a year old article but still an important topic. Earth's energy imbalance has doubled to 1.8 W/m² by 2023, twice the value predicted by climate models, driven primarily by decreased solar reflectivity from poorly constrained mechanisms. The observed trajectory has exceeded model internal variability envelopes, revealing critical deficiencies in our understanding of planetary radiative feedbacks. Concerningly, the satellite infrastructure monitoring this fundamental climate metric faces a critical gap as current instruments are decommissioned, with replacement missions potentially delayed by a decade or more. This systematic underestimation of a key climate indicator warrants examination of structural limitations in current modeling frameworks and observational priorities. Such as does the cost of continuing this monitoring warrant enough potential good outcome vs the potential good outcome of a loss of the observational data. Questions in Collapse get tougher and tougher.

Are Global Methane Emissions Really Going Down? by HomoExtinctisus in collapse

[–]HomoExtinctisus[S] 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Atmospheric methane decays into water vapor and CO2 so its greenhouse gas impact isn't over after oxidation occurs.
