It is unfortunate that global warming is accelerating faster than scientists had anticipated, that the climate models relied upon by world governments have a built-in flaw that is underestimating warming, and that the Paris Accord’s ambition of holding warming to 1.5 degrees has already failed. Under the terms Paris Accord, the 1.5 degree target is not considered broken unless average temperatures remain above it for years. The agreement takes into account the possibility that even if the world manages to reduce emissions adequately it might experience temperatures above that mark for years before they stabilise and begin to fall later in the century. #climatechange #climateurgency #globalwarming #parisagreement #flawed #degrowth #sustainability #possibility #temperartures #ipcc

Since 1988, scientists have been alerting the public about the urgency of global warming and its devastating effects on the world if imminent action isn’t taken. This talk hasn’t slowed down, and in 2023, the time to take action has never been more dire. In this year’s 2023 IPCC Climate Change Report, the world’s most authoritative scientists summarize five years of findings on global temperature rises, fossil fuel emissions and climate impacts while outlining cost-effective actions we can take now to secure a sustainable future for all. Discover 4 optimistic takeaways from this year’s report: http://go.3ds.com/7x9 #CitiesPublicServices #SustainableCities #VirtualTwins

There's been a massive disconnect between what's communicated widely about the science of global warming by organizations like the IPCC and the IEA, and that leading scientists actually believe. Remaining below 1.5 degrees is a fantasy. The reality is now far past that. Companies and governments have been making decisions on faulty projections and a false belief that we have more time and carbon budget than we actually do. We need to up the urgency now to avert the worst humanitarian and economic crises ahead. https://lnkd.in/g4ynuQYc

I think at one point you need to tell your children the truth (in the right way), try to find ways with them how they can act on it and inspire them to want to make a difference. What’s your take on this important question?
Serial entrepreneur (telecoms) turned green * Using technology to prevent wildfires * CEO Dryad Networks
Is it the time now to tell everybody (and our kids) that the goal to keep global warming below 1.5 degrees is dead and we are almost certainly going to smash it, heading to 2.0 degrees or higher, even under optimistic scenarios? The argument that describing the dystopian consequences of what seems now inevitable will cause despair is sound, but hiding the truth is not helping, either. I have 3 kids myself, not sure what to do. What's your take on this? Tell the truth or continue to pretend there is hope? Failure is not an option. https://lnkd.in/emBYxZa2
Many scientists don’t want to tell the truth about climate change. Here’s why

See below for a concise overview on how critical it is to keep 1.5 alive. The outcome of #cop28 means that 1.5 still has a lifeline, but with the lack of legally binding language, it means we all have our work cut out for us. #climatefinance will be key in achieving the just and urgent energy transition needed to get us there.
Every trade off is a choice. Let's also bear in mind the consequences of choices. For example between +1.5°C and +2.0°C of global warming.
What happens if the 1.5C target for global heating is missed?

To quote: “The successive reports and their updated predictions can be seen as recalibrating the narrative of risk to lower temperatures. The implication is that as real-world warming has not met the more alarming early predictions, the scientific response has been to lower the temperature benchmarks at which significant climate disruptions are anticipated to occur. This re-calibration ensures that the narrative of a looming and immediate climate crisis remains at the forefront of public discussion and policy-making.”

Video below is 80 mins long but totally absorbing. It challenges the scientific consensus that global warming is man-made. This sounds utterly foolhardy but there is apparently a powerful scientific Orthodoxy whereby sceptical scientists find it very hard to get funded or published, are bullied and forced to leave their jobs. Hence, it's easy to achieve consensus by exclusion and the blind-trusting mainstream media will always fall in line. The Orthodoxy is aware that the colossal research money pipeline will stop flowing if global warming is disproved. The video presents evidence that: (1) Earth's current warming is within natural cycles even just considering recent history back to the 1930s; (2) Land temperature records heavily contaminated by urban heat island effect are dishonestly presented as proof of escalating global warming;(3) Over the Earth's geologic past, CO2 has been unimportant in driving global temperatures changes;(4) A better explanation for global warming is sun activity and its effect on cloud formation; (5) There is no evidence in the climatic records for extreme events becoming more frequent. Watch the first two sections if you haven't got time.
