when are we seizing the means of production? we waiting until the food shortages or what?
We’re just waiting for the environment to correct that problem.
Probably, the world is roughly three meals away from total chaos
They must be really good meals, it might be worth it.
Yes, that’s how it works. People will not move for ideas, they will move when their daily life becomes unbearable. Though they may not move in the direction you want, it seems far right is rising faster than far left.
In Germany, we have a word for that: “Leidensdruck” and I think that’s beautiful.
In Germany, we have a word for that
That goes without saying ;)
I’m following your lead. Which means of production will you seize first?
energy production seem like s good place to start
I actually largely agree with you, I’m just being an ass. I’ll meet you at the energy production facility shortly!
This is a nothing headline. Yes, they’re all going up and it ain’t great, but this will be happening for a while. Until we move off of fossil fuels, we can expect as such .
The headline is like, “Global population is at an all time high”. No shit. It will again be tomorrow too.
Nice, rare display of preparedness to stock up on the most-important ones.
Gotta get those feedback loops spinning 🔁
This is the best summary I could come up with:
The levels of the three most important heat-trapping gases in the atmosphere reached new record highs again last year, US scientists have confirmed, underlining the escalating challenge posed by the climate crisis.
Methane, which comes from sources including oil and gas drilling and livestock, has surged even more dramatically in recent years, Noaa said, and now has atmospheric concentrations 160% larger than in pre-industrial times.
Noaa said the onward march of greenhouse gas levels was due to the continued use of fossil fuels, as well as the impact of wildfires, which spew carbon-laden smoke into the air.
“As these numbers show, we still have a lot of work to do to make meaningful progress in reducing the amount of greenhouse gases accumulating in the atmosphere,” said Vanda Grubišić, director of Noaa’s global monitoring laboratory.
The increasing presence of greenhouse gases is spurring a rise in global temperature – last year was the hottest ever measured worldwide – and well as associated impacts such as floods, droughts, heatwaves and wildfires.
Scientists have warned that governments need to rapidly slash emissions to net zero, and then start removing carbon from the atmosphere to bring down future temperature increases.
The original article contains 443 words, the summary contains 196 words. Saved 56%. I’m a bot and I’m open source!
Methane is both stronger than co2 and has the shorter half-life. We COULD swap to plant based diets on a mass scale to eliminate a huge portion of that.
It would also reduce land used for food farming (animals eat more than we get from eating them, and most are factory farmed and mass-produced fed monocrops to meet consumer demand), allowing us to rewild a lot of space.
That is in our power. Completely in OUR power. But nope. Blame corporations exclusively, take no personal action, bacon tho.
We’re going to suffer the effects of global warming, and it’s going to be everyone’s fault.
