The BS idea of ‘climate overshoot’

Climate overshoot is the idea that we can exceed 1.5C and still return to a safe and stable climate. This BS is peddled by the IPCC and climate influencers. Exceeding 1.5C means irreversible climate change with new science demonstrating that, “from a climate justice perspective, overshoot entails socioeconomic impacts and climate-related loss and damage thatContinue reading “The BS idea of ‘climate overshoot’”

Who’s worse on climate?

Who’s worse on climate? In 2023, Biden-Harris oversaw record oil and gas production. The USA is the largest oil producer in the world and Trump won’t deviate from this course. Why? Because power depends on power. Without energy, governments, nation states, and empires collapse. With energy, climate change and ecocide accelerate. Catch-22. #TalkCollapse because thisContinue reading “Who’s worse on climate?”

The evil that is ‘hope’

“Pandora’s ‘hope’ leads to a paradox. Hope means understanding our powerlessness in a situation. It means trusting that some other individual, group or spiritual entity will take an action that we are unequipped or unprepared to take ourselves. If we knew what to do and could do it, we wouldn’t need hope.” As Prof EliotContinue reading “The evil that is ‘hope’”

A ‘just’ phone???

We appreciate Extinction Rebellion co-founder Gail Bradbrook’s passion for justice. However, she misunderstands the nature and severity of our predicament. Hi-tech phones can never be ‘just’ or ‘sustainable’. They are ecocidal greenwashed business-as-usual, dressed up as ‘degrowth’ or a ‘just transition’. Tell the truth, the real truth. This is #collapse. 

Fresh water demand to outstrip supply by 40% by 2030

THIS IS COLLAPSE: “More than half the world’s food production will be at risk of failure within the next 25 years as a rapidly accelerating water crisis grips the planet… Half the world’s population already faces water scarcity, and that number is set to rise as the climate crisis worsens… Demand for fresh water willContinue reading “Fresh water demand to outstrip supply by 40% by 2030”

An honest assessment?

“We’re already in the midst of abrupt climate upheaval, which jeopardises life on Earth like nothing humans have ever seen,” said Prof William Ripple, of Oregon State University (OSU), who co-led the group. “Ecological overshoot – taking more than the Earth can safely give – has pushed the planet into climatic conditions more threatening thanContinue reading “An honest assessment?”
