(Some) Costs of not mitigating our pollution in one graph: Insurable losses in Canada due to extreme weather events, 1983 to 2024, in billions of dollars. Imagine the costs in human and other species suffering which is not insured. PS No such thing as “decarbonized” bitumen, oil, gas or coal.

@JackieSeidel1:

Wow.

@newscientist:

A sudden and dramatic decline in the amount of carbon being soaked up by European forests is causing alarm among scientists, with fears that the sharp downturn could undermine efforts to curb global warming.

Human pollution (and over breeding) is taking the breath of trees away: “Trees in warmer, drier climates are essentially coughing instead of breathing,” sending CO2 right back into the atmosphere so they no longer serve as solution to our carbon pollution while earth continues heating and humans continue making more carbon pollution. Stupidest species on earth.

John Vaillant calling Mark Carney: “The steady increase in fossil fuel-enhanced weather disasters: these floods, fires, heat waves, and intensifying storms are the Bank of Nature’s repo men coming to collect on that debt — ‘repossessing’ our homes, our cars, our towns, even our very lives.”

2024 Wildfires, fossil fuels, (war and genocides?) cause biggest rise in CO2 pollution ever recorded at Mauna Loa Observatory. Human response so far? A pail of water tossed, missing the fire.

Overlooked feedback loop: As fossil fools frac Alberta to dried up hell, drought causes soils to crack, releasing more CO2 and other greenhouse gases, escalating climate chaos.

New review: What’s destroying life on earth? Human overpopulation. Having 1 less child is 50 times more effective in reducing individual carbon footprints than other actions. “With human numbers doubling on Earth between 1970 and 2020, demand for freshwater resources for domestic use increased globally by 600%” while frac’ers permanently remove from the hydrogeological cycle 25-100% of the water they inject. “Re-fracturing may take place up to four times” on individual wells.

Humanity vs Life: Are humans destroying natural carbon sinks?

Humans increasing CO2 is driving increase in worldwide severity and frequency of wildfires; “The best way to decrease wildfires is to mitigate our carbon dioxide emissions. We need more emission control now.”

Silent Crisis: Climate change causing 80% decline in insect populations in Costa Rica’s Área de Conservación Guanacaste; 50% of insect species worldwide face rapid decline. No worries, humans can eat plastic when food is no more.

Scientists’ Warning: The 2023 state of the climate report: Entering uncharted territory. Welcome to hell by humanity.
