Hey now we could have a nuclear winter, don’t rule out a meteor strike either

[–] passepartout@feddit.org 33 points 1 month ago (3 children)

We will probably do at least experimental forms of geoengineering the next years as well. Also those super volcanoes that should have blown up couple hundred years ago will hide the sun for some years once they pop. Also also, fucking with the climate (or trying to save it) could become some kind of climate warfare in the near future as well I guess. Good times ahead!

Such a shame we have to keep increasing emissions, or maybe this coukd have helped.

[–] Lemmyoutofhere@lemmy.ca 9 points 1 month ago

I too have seen Snowpiercer.

[–] LoreleiSankTheShip@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Don't forget the AMOC shutting down and sending most of Europe spiralling into the opposite problem as the rest of the world boils!

[–] passepartout@feddit.org 2 points 1 month ago

Great, another one to stress about!

[–] Tinks@lemmy.world 19 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Supervolcano is also an option!

[–] j4k3@lemmy.world 12 points 1 month ago

Hey don't forget flood basalts from all the shifting mass as ice melts. Those are real benders in both climactic directions depending on the composition. We have no idea how those actually start and the timelines involved, just theories and speculation.

[–] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 37 points 1 month ago (1 children)


in 1995, so they wrote it in 1994

[–] krunklom@lemmy.zip 7 points 1 month ago (2 children)

I think that was more a jab at the overall terrible state of the American public education system, but your point stands regardless.

[–] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 6 points 1 month ago

i''m still standing by "the simpsons predicted it"

[–] bobo1900@startrek.website 2 points 1 month ago

Where do you think today's problems come from? Bad education makes a generation of ignorant, functionally illiterate, warmongering subjects.

[–] Sanctus@lemmy.world 33 points 1 month ago (3 children)

Technically, we could all collectively decide we have had enough. We won't, but we could.

[–] lugal@lemmy.dbzer0.com 21 points 1 month ago (2 children)

I'm not even sure that's enough. Some tipping points are already reached and the CO2 that's already in the atmosphere won't magically disappear because we don't add more.

Keep that in mind when you hear that the emission is still rising exponential

[–] bss03@infosec.pub 15 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Yeah, we not only have to reach net-0, which is a pipe dream with the current leadership / collective will, but we'll need to figure out some method of carbon capture that can actually be net-negative AND deploy it on scales far beyond any sort of "carbon capture" that has been planned, whether their number were sane or just hype to get some of the "pork barrel spending".

I suggest making sure you have an "exit plan" for when it get worse than you'd like, which I expect to be in my lifetime. There are more violent, revolutionary, or both approaches, but I won't mention them explicitly.

Even if we replaced all energy production "magically" with solar/wind/tidal, we'll still have to keep extracting oil to make plastic!

[–] arrow74@lemmy.zip 2 points 1 month ago (1 children)

If you're going to take an "exit plan" there are a lotnof revolutionary ways to go about it

[–] bss03@infosec.pub 2 points 1 month ago

Sorry, maybe I was ambiguous. The violent/revolutionary approaches would be to achieve some sort of climate recovery, which might obviate needing an "exit plan".

[–] Sanctus@lemmy.world 7 points 1 month ago (2 children)

Yeah but most climate scientists say every little bit helps, so if we could just do a lot of bits maybe we won't all have to die.

[–] outhouseperilous@lemmy.dbzer0.com 10 points 1 month ago (1 children)

So, every little bit might help, if we are not already dead.

But if we aren't willing to end capitalism and exterminate the scum who did this, and can not will not stop, nothing matters for shit.

Like putting a hand aid on a bisection wound with intestines leaking out.

[–] Sanctus@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

People's initiative? We have the tools. Let's start.

[–] lugal@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 1 month ago

True, I didn't want to sound as a doomer. Every little bit helps in the sense of harm reduction. This isn't black or white. Actually white is long over. It's dark gray or black and I'm willing to fight for dark gray.

[–] Hupf@feddit.org 4 points 1 month ago

Return to monke

[–] stoy@lemmy.zip 18 points 1 month ago (6 children)

Nope, we are in summer here, I guarantee it will be colder in the winter

[–] lugal@lemmy.dbzer0.com 17 points 1 month ago (1 children)
[–] stoy@lemmy.zip 17 points 1 month ago (1 children)

No sir, that is clearly a comment, sir

[–] lugal@lemmy.dbzer0.com 8 points 1 month ago

What about winter? Checkmate libz

[–] plyth@feddit.org 11 points 1 month ago

Not if we are just preparing for nuclear winter.

[–] lovely_reader@lemmy.world 11 points 1 month ago

I mean all seriousness aside, that photo is pretty fucking cool

[–] DarkCloud@lemmy.world 10 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

I've lived before this when it was cooler, and that's still part of my lifetime.

Span maybe, that's a more future looking term.

[–] RockBottom@feddit.org 9 points 1 month ago

On average. 1.5 degrees hotter, every square inch of earth, every second of the day. But some areas will become cooler than we knew them up to now, when ocean currents break down.

[–] Deceptichum@quokk.au 8 points 1 month ago

It took my whole life, but I'm finally the coolest fucking person ever.

[–] untorquer@lemmy.world 4 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

Not having children is great for the environment.

Judging by how much they scream on the topic, it's great at fighting capitalists as well! Though to be fair, screaming kids are great at fighting those as well...

[–] Luouth@lemmy.world 4 points 1 month ago

Turn the goddamn AC on, Jerry!

[–] cyberpunk007@lemmy.ca 3 points 1 month ago

BC is the new California. California is the new hell.

[–] Proprietary_Blend@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago

So cool. Fuck yeah

[–] LodeMike@lemmy.today 2 points 1 month ago

From now going into the future, yes. 10 years ago it was colder.

[–] thatradomguy@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

So when do we unlock Mad Max biome?

[–] toynbee@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

I'm so torn on whether to upvote this.
