There is blame to be placed for all the inaction.

"Congress is still controlled by Koch puppets. Climate deniers."

The office of president is a bully pulpit - a place from which to change the dynamic, not bow to it. If Obama really thought it was important he would have campaigned for it while in office, at least in his second term.

And, while I 100% disagree with the Koch agenda, one thing I have to say is that the brothers put (a lot of) their money (over a long time) where their mouth is. They truly committed to realizing their plans. Compared to democrats who couldn't even be bothered to put their mouth where their mouth is.

Ludicrous.

Climate denial is 100% a Republican thing, and always has been.

The only party that ever tried to do anything was the Dems (and the Greens, of course, but like the Dems, they had no power or influence).

Pure climate denial propaganda, coupled with powerless, ineffectual, broke-ass opposition is what did this.

We should have been working on this since Exxon's own scientists told them what was going to happen 40 years ago. They instead decided that profit > survival of the planet's species.

Look at Republicans letting hunters kill whatever they want, today.

It's like they want everything to die. Maybe they're lizard people?

They don't seem to have a prefrontal cortex.

Seventy-one percent of Democrats polled said climate change was a "serious problem" that required action to be taken, while 15 percent of Republicans said the same, according to the report.

The so-called Independents? The article said: "Forty-seven percent of independent respondents said they would call climate change a serious problem and indicated that action needed to be taken." It is pretty typical of an Independent to say "Am I for? Am I against? I'll flip a coin because I don't want to be predictable." Therefore they came out almost 50/50. It would have been exactly 50% but there is always that 6% who pick: "I don't know".

Gore could step-up because he was not running for office in the 21st Century. Elected and serving Democratic politicians have to bend to the will of the voters and Democratic voters don't want to be inconvenienced by Gore's "An Inconvenient Truth". How about Republican voters? Truth has to bite their ass to get their attention. How do I know this? I can look at Europe to see it.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/An_Inconvenient_Truth

The United States has reduced per-capita carbon emissions slightly more than Europe, small thanks goes to the Democratic party and to me for being in the natural gas business instead of coal. In Europe, by contrast to the US, there is no equivalent to the Republican Party. Nobody denies that climate change is real, and there’s no monolithic political opposition to doing something about it.

In other words, it doesn’t seem as if either the Republican Party or America’s dysfunctional politics is really the whole problem. So what is? It must be something common to both Europe and the US, and the obvious answer is that we all live in democracies. Roughly speaking, our governments do what the public wants, and the public doesn’t have much interest in reducing carbon emissions. Oh, we say we do, and we’ll support minor things like ETS or CAFE that have a barely noticeable effect on us. We’ll support solar power — if it produces electricity nearly as cheaply as coal. We’ll all buy electric cars — but only when the price comes down and the batteries get better. We’ll check out the energy star rating the next time we buy a new refrigerator. And that’s about it.

As for the rest of the world, I won’t even show you the chart. It’s too depressing. Outside of Europe and the US, carbon emissions are just going steadily up, up, up. Even the Great Recession barely made a dent.

President Obama’s Renewable Energy Legacy
Tuesday, January 10, 2017
By Rob Sargent
Senior Director, Campaign for 100% Renewable Energy

"Tonight, President Obama will deliver a farewell address in his hometown of Chicago. His two terms in office offer many examples of progress for which he deserves thanks and praise. Chief among these examples is the game-changing gains we’ve seen in renewable energy since he took office. Thanks to his commitment to tackling global warming and his leadership, the United States and the world are finally on a path to a future powered entirely by clean, renewable energy.

When President Obama took office in 2009, the U.S. had only 1.2 gigawatts (GW) of solar capacity and 25 GW of wind capacity installed. Since then, there’s nearly three times as much wind power (75 GW), and solar power has increased by an astonishing 2500% clip to 31 GW.

These dramatic increases are, in part, a product of forward-thinking policies by the Obama administration that drove down costs. In early 2009, nearly $90 billion went to renewable energy from the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act. In 2015, Congress extended renewable tax credits for solar and wind. Throughout the past eight years, the Obama administration actively supported the offshore wind energy industry, and ultimately oversaw the first offshore wind farm coming online in 2016. And they aggressively pushed energy savings by finalizing fifty efficiency standards -- more than any previous administration -- saving consumers $550 billion on their utility bills.

As a result of these actions, the cost of solar and wind has decreased in stunning fashion -- exceeding even the more optimistic projections. Land-based wind costs have dropped 41 percent since 2008, and wind now powers over 17 million U.S. households. The cost of rooftop solar has declined by 54 percent, and as of the beginning of 2016, one million households had solar panels. Finally, utility-scale solar costs have been cut by 64 percent, powering two million homes.

There is no denying that solar and wind are booming like never before under President Obama’s leadership. What’s more, a growing body of research indicates that the transition to a low-carbon economy is happening alongside a growing economy. Since the president took office, carbon emissions from electricity fell by 9.5 percent, while the economy grew by more than 10 percent -- and we’re seeing the same pattern on a global scale for the first time.

Of course, we need to go even farther and set even more ambitious renewable energy goals if we want to avoid the worst impacts of global warming. We echo the President’s optimism in a recently-published piece in Science Magazine that despite the uncertain energy policy of the incoming administration, the momentum of clean energy is “irreversible.”

So thank you, President Obama, for laying the foundation for the renewable energy boom. While much work is left to be done, you have helped chart a course for a 100 percent renewable energy future -- and it is crucial that the next administration embrace this path, for the sake of our kids and our grandkids."

So there's that.

It's inscrutable. The US has the 'capacity' to generate a rate of 75 gw wind power and 31 gw of solar. But how much power is actually generated? For that we'd need to know the total gigawatt HOURS generated in (for the sake of argument) a year.

In 2018, the US generated 275 billion kwh of wind power and 63 billion kwh of solar electricity. https://www.eia.gov/tools/faqs/faq.php?id=427&t=3 But in 2017 the US used a total of 97.7 QUADRILLION BTUs. Or, converting that to billion kwh https://www.rapidtables.com/convert/energy/BTU_to_kWh.html 28,600 billion kwh.

The US generated about 338 billion kwh in solar and wind energy, but used 28,600 billion kwh total. In other words, solar and wind electricity generation accounted for appx 1.7% of total energy use.

Wow. (I'm being ironic.)

Just OOC I looked into the "deep adaptation" paper mentioned earlier (You can find a link to the paper itself here, I haven't been able to find a direct link yet)

http://www.scientistswarning.org/deep-adaptation-a-map-for-navigating-
climate-tragedy
/

Curiously, it takes the same approach that I do: There will have to be a fundamental change in what we think is important, new set of ethics, and a whole new restructuring of our economies and societies if we are to adapt and survive.

Of course, REAVERBOT believes that survival isn't possible, and SECOND believes that change isn't posible, so these links aren't for them.

In that same vein, this is the "hopium" we're being sold by NPR.

This is dangerous, because it makes people think all their problems will be solved. They will not. Not only would acting fast enough and finding all the solutions needed to get to net 0 by 2050 be nearly impossible, it simply won't happen.

We have a president and an EPA that don't acknowledge that climate change is even a real thing. They say it's a hoax, along with about 1/4 of our population.

We've got a war to wage in Venezuela to keep control of the oil so we can stay the world's sole military empire. Priorities.

Trump is simply an idiot. He denies climate science, and appointed a bunch of people from the fossil fuel industries who do too, and they're laying waste to what regulation there had been for it.

Even Bush admitted it was a problem, but did nothing to address it.

Bernie Sanders is all on board with a GND, but even if he gets elected, he's got staunch opposition on the other side.

If we had listened to him 30 years ago, we might have had time to stop it, but it's too late now.

Which Bush was that?

That aside - it doesn't matter. Don't let yourself get bamboozled by mere talk. Neither political 'side' has done anything to change our course, because that would defy their masters.


When it comes to who's done more to represent their interests - I have to give it to conservatives, the petroleum industry, and the Koch brothers specifically. Many many decades ago conservatives created a bunch of well-funded think tanks to determine the debate. The petroleum industry has been waging this war over many decades. And the Kochs have put a substantial amount of money where their mouths are.

If you compare that to the democratic party, the liberal organizations like the Sierra Club, and uber-wealthy individual democrats ... well, it's clear why the action went one way. There just wasn't any fight in the environmental side. And the people you presume are the good guys - the democrats - failed like tissue paper in a storm.

So, this is a complete aide. But jack wondered how the anti-war party became the war hawk party. One could also wonder how the party that claims to represent the good of the people came to represent the multi-nationalist free-traders. Or how that same party went from protecting the environment to quietly joining the other side. Or from protecting people's bank accounts to giving away their assets to the bankers.

And I think that it's because most people really don't care if we start wars or remain peaceable. Or make goods in the US or buy things 'Made in China'. Or preserve the environment or do business as usual. Or care if many get poor while a few get far richer.

As a result, the democratic party doesn't stand for any vital thing, and doesn't hold itself accountable to fight for any vital thing, like peace, productive capacity, preserving the environment, or creating a fair society. Nope. What it stands for is 'we are the side opposed the republicans'. It's tribal. Republicans bad, democrats good.


And those poor democrats who actually mistook their party for one of principle, like McGovern or Gore, were left hanging around all by their lonesome, while the party retreated from those positions.

Probably the most interesting post I've read here in a while.

Not far off from what I've thought about things for the last 20 years or something. There was a point in time where they were taking down quite a lot of high profile Mafia types, and I found myself thinking that this wasn't a good thing in general. Not that I support any Mafia types or anything, but I thought "great... it's like one huge and super-powered, and infinitely funded macro-gang is systematically wiping out all the little established micro-gangs"

We're well into the era of homogenized culture in the US, spurred on quite quickly by the internet and social media. When I grew up in the world pre-internet, there wasn't much inter-connectivity with much of the world as a rule. Everyone behaved much different because they had to live with the people they regularly conversed with, and all of their actions required to either be face to face with people, or at the very least over the phone. Those days are long gone, and you can see the decay of civility that has come along with social media becoming the public square.

I think that the internet, at least the way we use it under our multi-national corpo-capitalist masters today, will ultimately be the destruction of society that we've spent all of human history putting together.









As for the article, that was an interesting read.


I had just watched an interesting video on YouTube the other day that came to mind when I read this part of the article:

Quote:

“I was surprised by how unsurprising it all was,” he says. “I expected there would be lots of ‘be brave,’ ‘don’t steal from others,’ and ‘return favors,’ but I also expected a lot of strange, bizarre moral rules.” They did find the occasional departure from the norm. For example, among the Chuuk, the largest ethnic group in the Federated States of Micronesia, “to steal openly from others is admirable in that it shows a person’s dominance and demonstrates that he is not intimidated by the aggressive powers of others.” That said, researchers who studied the group concluded that the seven universal moral rules still apply to this behavior: “it appears to be a case in which one form of cooperation (respect for property) has been trumped by another (respect for a hawkish trait, although not explicitly bravery),” they wrote.

An extremely powerful cyclonic storm will plow through the Plains and Midwest tomorrow. May see major flooding across parts of Nebraska, Iowa and Minnesota as all the snowpack melts abruptly on top of up to 2-3 inches of rainfall in 48 hrs...all while the ground is still cold and below freezing, not allowing for faster infiltration of high precipitation rates. Meanwhile, the High Plains, which have actually missed on a lot of snow will face snowfall amount of 2 feet+ over 48 hrs and gusts of 60-70 mph! The southern Plains will have those gusts without the snow and some severe weather is possible over parts of Texas today and then into Arkansas and Louisiana tomorrow.

This is what you get with a destabilizing jet stream as a result of abrupt climate change...very prominent lobes of cold air blasting south at the expense of the Arctic, interacting with very abnormally warm air, generating these extremely intense storms capable of destroying infrastructure. The Plains and Midwest get intense storms like this, but we are seeing more and more of them now, causing more damage to roads, bridges and livestock which will be in danger tomorrow.

This is the direct result of rapidly-increasing global warming. It will never get better.

The response from twitter user WTFGOP was my favorite: "I seriously could shit a more intelligent President"

"Patrick Moore often misrepresents himself in the media as an environmental “expert” or even an “environmentalist,” while offering anti-environmental opinions on a wide range of issues and taking a distinctly anti-environmental stance. He also exploits long-gone ties with Greenpeace to sell himself as a speaker and pro-corporate spokesperson, usually taking positions that Greenpeace opposes.

Patrick Moore Does Not Represent Greenpeace

Patrick Moore has been a paid spokesman for a variety of polluting industries for more than 30 years, including the timber, mining, chemical and the aquaculture industries. Most of these industries hired Mr. Moore only after becoming the focus of a Greenpeace campaign to improve their environmental performance. Mr. Moore has now worked for polluters for far longer than he ever worked for Greenpeace. Greenpeace opposes the use of nuclear energy because it is a dangerous and expensive distraction from real solutions to climate change.

Greenpeace and the Green New Deal

In 2019, Mr. Moore has been misrepresented as a Greenpeace spokesperson on the Green New Deal resolution, sponsored by Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) and Sen. Ed Markey (D-MA). In contrast to Mr. Moore’s comment, please see Greenpeace’s response to the Green New Deal.

Patrick Moore Did Not Found Greenpeace

Patrick Moore frequently portrays himself as a founder or co-founder of Greenpeace, and many news outlets have repeated this characterization. Although Mr. Moore played a significant role in Greenpeace Canada for several years, he did not found Greenpeace. Phil Cotes, Irving Stowe, and Jim Bohlen founded Greenpeace in 1970. Patrick Moore applied for a berth on the Phyllis Cormack in March, 1971 after the organization had already been in existence for a year. A copy of his application letter and Greenpeace’s response are available here (PDF).

Patrick Moore is a Paid Spokesperson for the Nuclear Industry

In April 2006, the Nuclear Energy Institute, the principal lobby for the nuclear industry, launched the Clean And Safe Energy Coalition and installed former Bush Administration EPA Administrator Christine Todd Whitman and Mr. Moore as its co-chairs. The Clean and Safe Energy Coalition was part of a public relations project spearheaded by the public relations giant Hill & Knowlton as part of its estimated $8 million contract with the nuclear industry.(1)

Patrick Moore Has Provided Inaccurate Information on Nuclear Power

In 2004, Mr. Moore published an article in the International Atomic Energy Agency’s (IAEA) journal entitled “Nuclear Re-think.” According to Mr. Moore, “Three Mile Island was a success story. The concrete containment structure did as it was designed to do: it prevented radiation from escaping into the environment.”(2)

Contrary to Mr. Moore’s claim, the damaged reactor spewed radiation into the environment for days. It appears that Mr. Moore didn’t even bother to check his facts. The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission’s fact sheet on Three Mile Island (TMI) acknowledges that the meltdown resulted in “a significant release of radiation…”(3)

Even the International Atomic Energy Agency, which published Mr. Moore’s article, acknowledges that the TMI meltdown released radiation into the surrounding community. As a result, the IAEA ranks the accident as a Level 5 on a scale of 7, an Accident With Wider Consequences. (Only Chernobyl & the Soviet nuclear waste tank explosion in 1957 rank worse than the Three Mile Island meltdown.)(4)

According to the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission, 10 million curies of radiation escaped the damaged reactor core. However, nuclear engineers who reexamined the accident estimate that as much as 150 million curies of radiation may have escaped from the reactor.(5) The meltdown at Three Mile Island turned a multimillion dollar asset into a multibillion dollar liability overnight and helped seal the fate of nuclear power in the United States. To claim otherwise is nothing but public relations spin.

Unfortunately, Mr. Moore’s pro nuclear spin is not confined to the Three Mile Island meltdown. While praising the Bush Administration for rejecting the Kyoto Protocol(6), Moore promotes nuclear power as a solution to global warming because,”(i)t produces no harmful greenhouse gases…”(7)

However, the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) already determined in 1999 that the Nuclear Energy Institute’s claims touting nuclear power’s supposed environmental benefits were misleading because it did not disclose the fact that the production of nuclear fuel produced greenhouse gases. The FTC concluded that NEI’s claims could not be substantiated, “(s)ince there is not yet any permanent disposal system for radioactive waste and since the process of uranium enrichment that fuels nuclear reactors emits greenhouse gases…”(8)

Patrick Moore’s Own Words

Consider Patrick Moore’s own words when considering his claims and those of the nuclear industry: “It should be remembered that there are employed in the nuclear industry some very high-powered public relations organizations. One can no more trust them to tell the truth about nuclear power than about which brand of toothpaste will result in the sexiest smile,”(9) he wrote before becoming a spokesman for polluters."

When you quote someone as tainted as that as an expert... 'nuff said. Patrick Moore is just another one of these freaks that seem weirdly attracted to Dump. Birds of a feather.

Conclusion: Trump is still a lying sack of sh*t.

10 million years needed to recover from mass extinction
https://phys.org/news/2012-05-million-years-recover-mass-extinction.ht
ml


Life was nearly wiped out 250 million years ago, with only 10 per cent of plants and animals surviving. It is currently much debated how life recovered from this cataclysm, whether quickly or slowly.

These recovery intervals average about 10 million years.

Whether extraterrestrial impacts or drastic climate changes are to blame, mass extinctions are evolutionary events that alter the history of life. Which species or groups survive a mass extinction, while not entirely random, often has little to do with the factors that promote survival during normal times.

Mass extinctions are ecological disasters. Yet they also create evolutionary opportunities by removing once-dominant groups.

Arctic now locked into devastating temperature rise, UN report says
https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/north/arctic-warming-locked-in-1.505654
8?fbclid=IwAR0Ls2AigDq19efig8jHdJ_2jl5kAFira3Oa6V6kRwo2ylvBofBbJdsJizA


The Arctic is now locked into a destructive degree of climate change regardless of what measures are taken to halt global greenhouse gas emissions.

This conclusion comes out of a new UN environment report on the Arctic, which describes scenarios where Arctic winter temperatures increase by three to five degrees by 2050 compared to 1986-2005 levels, and by five to nine degrees by 2080. This temperature rise is expected to happen regardless of the success or failure of the Paris Agreement on climate change.

This would, according to the report, devastate the region while "unleashing sea level rises worldwide."

They leave out what this is going to do to plants and animals.

The climate strike is a source for hope – but new research shows it might be too late
In the short to medium term, there are dark questions about the political future. In the long term, the chances for human survival are very slim
https://www.independent.co.uk/voices/climate-strike-protests-arctic-me
lting-a8825936.html?utm_source=reddit.com


The end of the world is no longer a fanciful hypothesis. It is the most plausible scenario.

The loss of ice-cover reduces albedo, wherein solar radiation is reflected back into space. More dark water surface absorbs heat rather than deflecting it. Thawing permafrost releases warming methane into the atmosphere. The warming of the oceans, coupled with their ongoing carbonic acidification due to carbon emissions, will kill off a lot of marine life. The last of the remaining coral will be bleached, thus destroying one of the most biologically productive areas of the planet. It will also kill much of the phytoplankton that produce about half of the oxygen we breathe. The simple act of breathing will most likely become far more effortful, far more of a struggle, in the future.

fire in Houston
http://www.fireflyfans.net/mthread.aspx?bid=18&tid=62997

I was musing on the regulatory approach to mitigating our planet's destruction.

Some places seem to have done it quite successfully, at least in some areas. For example, with the US as a per capita benchmark 15.7 tons CO2 per year, the EU average is 7, Denmark is 5.9, France is 5.2, Sweden is 5.1, and Switzerland is 4.7.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_carbon_dioxide_emis
sions

But these places I believe have not only specifically focused on reductions, but also have particular factors that make this possible, like smaller size and a lack of heavy industry (or even a lack of fossil fuels like France, that led it to focus on nuclear energy).

When I look at the US, I think that most regulatory efforts have gone to merely curbing extreme excesses. The Cuyahoga River had to burn for at least the 13th time in 1969 before people began to think 'maybe rivers shouldn't burn' and the government was pushed into action.
So for example, looking at the naphtha fire in Houston - the EPA monitors ambient toxics. The DOT regulates transport by common carrier. OSHA regulates workplace safety. There are state and local regulations in place to try and prevent the very worst problems, but only the very worst.

And the petroleum/ petrochemical industry is a global behemoth. Petrochemicals alone are an annual 300million tons of product industry Global oil demand is 100million barrels per day.
And every well, every pipeline, every tanker, every storage tank, every underground fuel tank, every physical transfer from one to the next - leaks - in immeasurable ways.
There is simply no way to maintain the global industry at that size without leaving a huge global footprint. There's simply no way to regulate away the damage on a global scale. It's simply too entrenched in the nature and scale of the business.
And the same case could be made about the plastics industry, the agro-chemicals industry, the fishing industry, and so on.
As long as industries can profit by strip-mining the planet - and if their profit-motive has any say it will be indefinitely - we'll continue to destroy the planet.

Salvini supporters are publicly calling for Greta Thunberg to be assassinated
https://infinite-coincidence.com/2019/03/18/salvini-supporters-are-cal
ling-for-greta-thunberg-to-be-assassinated
/

This article (in Italian) details the comments made by several pro-Salvini personaggi, some of them prominent in the Italian media, over the last few days. The writer and TV personality Maria Giovanna Maglie called for the Swedish teenage activist to be “mown down by a car”, while the former pop star Rita Pavone called her “a character from a horror movie”. Diego Fusaro, a political philosopher whose self-definition as a “Marxist” should be taken with un grandissimo pezzo di sale, accused the 16-year-old of being part of a plot by the “cosmopolitan elite” (hem hem). The well-known climate liar and founder of the daily newspaper ‘Il Foglio’, Giuliano Ferrara, tweeted “I don’t want to be accused of pedophobia, but I detest this idolatrous figure Greta and her disgusting braids, and the false world of lies she weaves round herself”. The hashtag #nogreta was trending among supporters of Salvini’s neofascist Lega party and its fellow travellers/coalition partners in the Five Star Movement, some of whom still, bizarrely, style themselves as environmentalists and even, in some outlandish cases, anti-racists. Salvini himself joined in with a typically puerile Trump-style tweet welcoming global warming as it will mean more “herbs”, a comment which will delight those among the Five Star Movement who aren’t in outright denial about Salvini’s being in power. A Five Star supporter I spoke to on Friday confirmed what I’d heard elsewhere, in that he felt that Salvini and the Lega “weren’t really” in control of the Government and that the self-confessed fan of Mussolini should be given “more time” to implement his agenda, which includes forcibly evicting and deporting hundreds of thousands of neri, protecting the Mafia by removing police protection from journalists who investigate them and building a global far-right alliance with Putin, Trump, Le Pen, and all the other names far too depressing to mention.

Did you read about these at all, or just grab some quick stats? Did you notice how many had been influenced (helped) by the United Nations, or "western liberal influences?"
"Africa has been able to reduce its greenhouse gas emissions by an astounding 78% by working with the United Nations Environment Program." I would bet if you looked further you might find that is pretty common for these small nations. I would bet as well, that since these are such small nations with small industrial footprint, that it doesn't take much to reduce their GH output. Yet another example where citing percentages can be misleading.

One of your charts (the other is the same):
