There's a slight misconception here, there's a longer lag time between CO2 release and its effect on warming.
What I'm saying is that we've not even begun to see the worst effects of what we've already put into the atmosphere.
Next year is already forecast to be much worse. Mostly due to El Niño making things even worse.
Yup, CO2 stays in the athmosphere for centuries. We only feel the start of the warming right now and it is not about to level off even if we stopped with all emissions tomorrow.
Agreed. This year's spike is due to the banning of sulfur-based emissions from shipping vessels in the pacific. Sulfur emissions only last about 2 weeks in the atmosphere before being rained out, but they contribute significantly to the aerosol cooling effect.
So far *
Nah I just read on Fox News that the 1930s were hotter, the 1970s were colder than normal and were now just returning to normal.
So… Uncle Rupert says we’re good. Nothing to see here, folks.
Look on the bright side right?
bright from the heat radiation?
It's time people from the north start giving climate immigration visas.
That would be a pretty bad idea for those countries
Come on up, the rain is pouring!
But that cant be true! I'm currently dealing with one of the mildest summers ever in my region, it's all a hoax! /s just in case
Climate change is showing the effects a lot more now.
God help us, and may the people responsible for this be tried
If there was a God, this trend would be evidence of his ambivalence (i.e., lack of benevolence).
It was a figure of speech, I'm agnostic
They won’t. In fact most of them are already dead. Now we’re just dealing with their bratty kids.
Pretty sure companies like Shell still exist. There's still a lot of big polluters who don't want to be held responsible.
Can't wait!!
A community for discussing events around the World
Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. The key points in 1-2 paragraphs is allowed (even encouraged!), but large segments of articles posted in the body will result in the post being removed. If you have to stop and think "Is this fair use?", it probably isn't. Archive links, especially the ones created on link submission, are absolutely allowed but those that avoid paywalls are not.
Rule 3: Opinions articles, or Articles based on misinformation/propaganda may be removed. Sources that have a Low or Very Low factual reporting rating or MBFC Credibility Rating may be removed.
Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, anti-religious, or ableist will be removed. “Ironic” prejudice is just prejudiced.
Posts and comments must abide by the lemmy.world terms of service UPDATED AS OF 10/19
Rule 5: Keep it civil. It's OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It's NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.
Rule 7: We didn't USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you're posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
