A Super El Niño is coming.

Record El Niño to bake Australia

Well.

I'll update you on the incineration down under.

FUCK.

The sad part is, I did a minor in meteorology at uni (maths was my major). We studied ice core samples from the Arctic in 2005/2006 looking at how the climate changes. Looking at the projected path we were on back then triggered 3/4 months of really bad depression for me.

Watch out for wet bulb temperature, evade places that are too humid. With the increase of temperature, you might reach the upper limit even if the humidity isn't at a 100%, which results in pernament vacation out of life

Goddamnit. I kinda hoped this wouldn’t be the case but here we are. I hope anyone in the southern hemisphere has good access to air conditioning, this summer is gonna be ass

Sorry guys. Things are not looking good. 
 

We are in a climate emergency. But, no one will stop burning fossil fuels. The carbon in the atmosphere is ALREADY tramping more heat than it releases. More energy. So. We are in a positive feedback loop for planetary heating currently. There is no way to remove the Carbon. Earth will get hotter and it’s already causing global wild fires, heat waves, etc. These heat domes too are scary.

We need to create systems to support this, and incentivise markets to work with these systems to profit in some way. I can't think of any other way for people to hop onto problem solving faster.

There has been a lot of research and development into ways to extract carbon out and leverage the carbon cycle. Carbon farming. Bioenergy with carbon capture and storage, DAC or direct air capture. Even ocean absorption based strategies.

If only stupid cu*** like Musk weren't insisting on abandoning Earth for Mars. TF even happened to that narrative?

Someone needs to engineer a HUGE plant to move carbon into places we want it to support the existing cycle.
