Even if we cease all emissions today, some changes, such as sea level rise, will worsen for centuries.

Qui se souvient du 13 novembre 2017 ? Ce jour-là, dans la revue Bioscience, plus de 15 000 scientifiques venant de 184 pays sonnent l’alarme : « Il sera bientôt trop tard. » Les premières lignes de leur manifeste font écho à un autre appel, plus ancien : « En 1992, plus de 1 700 scientifiques indépendants, dont la majorité des lauréats de prix Nobe

The deep-sea cores and ice cores have revealed that climate change could indeed be incredibly rapid – just as Russell Coope had predicted – with big swings happening in just decades. As we look deep into the past, over vast stretches of time, the apparent stability of geography and climate that we perceive as individuals melts away, and we see inst

As the foremost spokesperson for the view that abrupt climate change will result in near-term human extinction (NTHE), he was the Dark Prince of Climate.

It stands as evidence that climate change is no longer a technological problem, but rather an ideological one, rooted in culture and politics.

we will consider the impacts of CE in three different emission controls environments: no controls (a lack of emissions controls), optimal controls, and limiting temperature change to 2°C.

I take to heart Tim Garrett’s excellent work,7 indicating that only the collapse of industrial civilization will prevent runaway climate change. And there are many, many other good reasons to terminate this set of living arrangements. According to a United Nations report from August 2010, we’re driving to extinction 150 to 200 species every day. Th

The missing truth, deliberately avoided in enemy narratives, is that in high-carbon societies, everyone contributes to the emissions that cause the problem … the real battle for mass action will be won not through enemy narratives [but through] narratives based on cooperation, mutual interests, and our common humanity. Marshall’s point isn’t that w
