Discussion of climate, how it is changing, activism around that, the politics, and the energy systems change we need in order to stabilize things.

As a starting point, the burning of fossil fuels, and to a lesser extent deforestation and release of methane are responsible for the warming in recent decades: Graph of temperature as observed with significant warming, and simulated without added greenhouse gases and other anthropogentic changes, which shows no significant warming

How much each change to the atmosphere has warmed the world: IPCC AR6 Figure 2 - Thee bar charts: first chart: how much each gas has warmed the world. About 1C of total warming. Second chart: about 1.5C of total warming from well-mixed greenhouse gases, offset by 0.4C of cooling from aerosols and negligible influence from changes to solar output, volcanoes, and internal variability. Third chart: about 1.25C of warming from CO2, 0.5C from methane, and a bunch more in small quantities from other gases. About 0.5C of cooling with large error bars from SO2.

Recommended actions to cut greenhouse gas emissions in the near future:

Anti-science, inactivism, and unsupported conspiracy theories are not ok here.

I dated this chick that was way into holistic all natural whatever. I swear you could put anything in a cardboard box or other plain packaging with "organic" on the side and she should buy that shit and than post about it changing her life..

Anyway, she had some mixed nuts or some such completely unopened. Left that shit in my cupboard and I swear not even a week later my place was full of moths!

It took days to even figure out where they were all coming from. Just suddenly it was end of days in my house. She came back over at some point and was like wtf is going on with these bugs!?

I forget which one of us found it but dude, that container was jam packed with life. Like a whole ass ecosystem in there one by one squeezing it's way out through a tiny crack in the container! Fuckin Nasty!

With the source removed it still took a week or two for the place to be free of the damn things.

She sure could suck a dick tho!

Yeah that's a known problem with less treated food. For this kind of food (nuts, rice, granola, etc...) a good way to avoid the "packet bursting with life" situation is to keep it a few days in the freezer as soon as you get it.

It kills a good chunk of the pests.

And also keep it in a sealed container like a glass jar. That way bugs don't find a way IN through the crack in the packaging. I have to do both freezer and container with my flour otherwise I get bonus weevil protein in my cakes. The joys of living in warm humid climates! Edit: a word
