#climatefutures — Public Fediverse posts

We're grateful today to Andrew Dana Hudson for these generous words about T. K. Rex's THE WILDCRAFT DRONES. “Thoughtful and funny, tender and bracing ... An essential text for any solarpunk’s bookshelf!”

What are you grateful for this first Monday of spring?

Still a bit spendy, but I could see something like this being the basic workboat for people working and living near the estuaries of drowning cities.

Here's a clear write-up by @hausfath on the current state of global CO2 emissions. The good news is that the world is clearly emitting less than the "worst cases" scenario of a decade ago.

"Flattening the curve of global emissions is only the first step in a long road to get it all the way down to zero."

Purpose of this 2nd #Hamburg #ClimateFutures #Outlook https://www.cliccs.uni-hamburg.de/results/hamburg-climate-futures-outlook/fact-sheets.html is to systematically analyze & assess plausibility of certain well-defined climate futures based on present knowledge of social drivers & physical processes. In particular, we assess the plausibility of those climate futures that are envisioned by 2015 Paris Agreement, namely holding global warming to well below 2°C & if possible, to 1.5°C, relative to pre-industrial levels. Not going to happen. Action needed now.

Cannot repeat often enough, these data keep getting back-benched. Society isn’t changing fast enough to stop the #ClimateCrisis = earth, each & every human, species on land, air, in the oceans. 1-10 yrs from now it will remain #1 global issue - #hunger #poverty #migration #war #health #drought #wildfires #hurricanes #water #agriculture #food Hamburg #ClimateFutures Outlook: The plausibility of a 1.5°C limit to #globalwarming warming - social drivers & physical processes https://www.fdr.uni-hamburg.de/record/11230#.Y9qMh-zMJO8

Part of the KLIMAKARTEN team (@aeschi @johanna_hahaha @framoriniii and @lalonsander) will present the project From Shock to Shift at #NIAM23 today at 3PM CET.

Reminder that I'm looking for people involved in #climate and #climatechange research and policy, as well as #climatejustice activism and advocacy for better #climatefutures, for a focus group to influence the development of a videogame / digital theatre experience: https://zoyastreet.wordpress.com/2022/12/06/climate-playmakers-focus-group/
