OT Corrupt BBC at it again!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Scaremongering?

The first tipping point of 1.5% above industrial global temp is likely to be hit around the mid 2030s. Even with the big polluters slowing/reversing in the coming years, it is unlikely we can halt that, and that will cause more extreme, widespread and intense heatwaves, droughts, heavy rainfall, and storms will become more frequent and intense, increasing risks of wildfires, floods, and water shortages globally. . But if that continues to 2%, that is when we have to deal with all of the above plus:

-Greater sea level rise: Melting ice sheets and glaciers will accelerate, causing higher sea level rise with increased flooding, coastal erosion, and displacement of millions, especially in low-lying coastal and island regions.​

-Ecosystem collapse: Many ecosystems will face critical thresholds leading to widespread biodiversity loss, including dieback of forests, coral reef bleaching and mortality, and extinction of vulnerable species.​

-Food and water security threats: Crop yields in many tropical and subtropical areas will decline further due to heat stress and disrupted rainfall, while fresh water availability will worsen, heightening risks of hunger and conflict.​

-Increased health risks: Heat-related illnesses and deaths will rise substantially, with greater spread of vector-borne diseases and worsening air pollution impacts on respiratory health.​

-Amplified social and economic disruption: The costs of disaster recovery, migration, infrastructure repair, lost productivity, and health treatment will surge, straining governments and societies around the world.​

-Higher risk of crossing irreversible tipping points: 2°C warming greatly increases the likelihood of triggering large--scale, irreversible changes such as collapse of major ice sheets and permafrost thaw, which could further accelerate warming

And when is the 2% increase likely to be reached if we continue at the rates before the current gradual slowdown of the last two years?

Between 2040 and 2060.

Yet you say our kids and grandkids should live "in the here and now".

Good grief. You do know we're still in an ice age don't you?

A virus could wipe us out tomorrow. Yep, live in the 'here and now'. Best advice you could give anyone.

If we're that concerned put the brakes on the planets population explosion. In 1950 we had 2.5 billion people on the planet. It's a species Earth could do with a lot less of.

This could be very costly.Trump threatens legal action against BBC as chairman apologises for 'error of judgement' on speech edit.

He? has he already said that he will sue unless he gets an apology 😂

Some reports say that it could be as much as ?30 quid on the tv licence.

If they don?t and the BBC lose it is just another incompetent move by the government and another tax to protect lying idiots!

Don?t worry. They may reduce the donation to Ukraine and blackrock whose Ukrainian ski resort will be open for business soon!

The fact that we are in an ice age has got nothing to do with the current global warming which is demonstrably caused by man made emissions. We are distorting the temperature range within a natural ice age cycle and are moving towards tipping points which within 15-40 years are predicted to hit 2% and become accelorated and irriversible. You could stop all breeding tomorrow and if left unchecked, our current trajectories will hit 2%, It's just a case of how soon and whether we can build on (some promising) changes in the acceleration to avoid hitting this point. We certainly will have more chance of doing this if people stop denying it is happening despite having no evidence to prove these scientist reports and evidence to be incorrect.

But I do agree with living in the hear and now - but with a a regrettable but necessary investment in the future so that the kids don't have to endure what we have set them up for.

On a more positive note - Reuters have just published this update on China's emissions output:

Everyone!

Climate change happens. It has done since dai one of the existence of the planet earth.

It has been hot I mean really hot and cold. Cold enough that elephants changed their name to woolly mammoths.. imagine having to grow a jumper hey?

The temperature changes on a daily basis! Where I live it can warm up as much as 30 degrees in on day!

You know what? Absolutely **** all happens until winter! Then it gets really cold!

It is said that if a volcano explodes then regardless of what the human output is it isn?t compatible to 3 or 4 large volcanos! I hope that never happens again!

Apparently the amount of extra CO2 last year lead to an increase of plant life on earth! That is the lady thing we need!

Something that thrives on CO2 cannot be good for us especially if we are proposing a plant based diet!

I?ll stop there before I stop breathing!

This one is so shockingly misinformed.

Where to begin.

Well, first, ou don't appear to understand the difference between weather and climate. They are different things.

But what on earth are you trying to say about volcanoes? It doesnt appear to be grounded in any reason. Volcanoes emit nowhere near as much as humans.

[Spuddy Speight]

On the topic of changes to the Earth's climate the increase in atmospheric CO2 is expected to postpone the start of the next ice age by at least 50,000 years, possibly extending it to about 100,000 years from now.
Parts of the UK will be under water before then. Many inland areas will be beside the seaside.
Get the deck chairs ready!

Parts of Rotherham are just under 200 feet above sea level!
Parkgate Retail World is in that category.

To return to the thread topic, for those who don't believe the WEF are in control of those who would harm our country, here's Tim Davie...

I don?t understand why nobody has been sacked from the Panorama team

News just in - Trump will sue the BBC for $1 billion whether they apologise or not.
