Thank you, Comrade Trump | The Strait of Epstein crisis is going to do more to accelerate permanent, unidirectional migration away from fossil fuels to cleantech than decades of environmental activism

    Blows my fuckin mind that fuckin Orange Palpatine is accidentally making the whole world switch to renewable energy while he turns the US into a dictatorship. Honestly, it kind of gives me some hope? Like how do you fuck up being H*tler so badly that you make the rest of the world a better place

      “Orange Palpatine” gives El Cheeto far too much credit. At least Darth Sidious was clever and could keep his pants up and mouth shut when he benefits from it.

        um… did I say something wrong? I didn’t mean to be offensive, it seems like you’re having a really strong reaction to something I said

            Does adding unnecessary expletives not convey a strong emotion/reaction?

              It just seemed like they took it personal, rather than it just being me disagreeing with something specific that they said.

                Sure. That’s exactly how you come off as well.

                  I just disagreed strongly. Don’t know what to tell you if you decide to take that personally.

                D’you wanna explain what you meant initially? I did assume that I’d offended you somehow because you cursed while disagreeing with me, so I wanted to know what I said wrong. I’m interested in hearing your thoughts. It’s a really scary time in the world right now, and I know that we’re just randos on the internet but it is important to me to listen when you speak - we’re all hanging out on slrpnk so ultimately we share a base ideology.

                  I was literally just strongly disagreeing with what you had said, it has nothing to do with you personally. You’re overthinking it.

      I get accused of being an accelerationist that I hope when everything is said and done, something good comes out of this fucking mess. I didn’t vote for Trump, hate republicans, but trying to hope for a shiny little sliver is apparently accelerationist.

        Hope is the first step on the road towards disappointment.

          An open mind is like a fortress with its gates unbarred and unguarded?

Discussion of climate, how it is changing, activism around that, the politics, and the energy systems change we need in order to stabilize things.

As a starting point, the burning of fossil fuels, and to a lesser extent deforestation and release of methane are responsible for the warming in recent decades: Graph of temperature as observed with significant warming, and simulated without added greenhouse gases and other anthropogentic changes, which shows no significant warming

How much each change to the atmosphere has warmed the world: IPCC AR6 Figure 2 - Thee bar charts: first chart: how much each gas has warmed the world.  About 1C of total warming.  Second chart:  about 1.5C of total warming from well-mixed greenhouse gases, offset by 0.4C of cooling from aerosols and negligible influence from changes to solar output, volcanoes, and internal variability.  Third chart: about 1.25C of warming from CO2, 0.5C from methane, and a bunch more in small quantities from other gases.  About 0.5C of cooling with large error bars from SO2.

Recommended actions to cut greenhouse gas emissions in the near future:

Anti-science, inactivism, and unsupported conspiracy theories are not ok here.
