Jeremy Lent: Ecocivilization"Lent’s goal is to synthesize dozens of proven and promising genres of existing projects and real-world activism. Some of these are daring and paradigm-breaking. Others operate well within the dominant market/state system but offer credible possibilities for post-capitalist transitions."

New over at climatetippingpoints.info: 'News Explainer: Is the AMOC closer to collapse than thought?'
The first of a new occassional 'News Explainer' series, briefly summarising recent news on climate tipping points (and checking how well the media reported it).
First up, a paper by Portmann et al. constraining future AMOC decline, but does it show that collapse is more likely than thought?

RE: https://mastodon.nl/@Blogfeedser/116426759073016504
🌎 AMOC likely to weaken 51% (±8%) by 2100 – far more than model ensemble mean (32±37%) according to new science paper. Observational constraints + ridge regression correct South Atlantic salinity bias, bringing tipping point closer.

"Continued global heating could trigger climate tipping points, leading to a cascade of further tipping points and feedback loops ... This would lock the world into a new and hellish “hothouse Earth” climate far worse than the 2-3C temperature rise the world is on track to reach. ...

Tim Lenton, Professor im Englischen Exeter schrieb ein Buch über positive Kipppunkte "Positive Tipping Points - How to fix the Climate Crisis". Der Spiegel berichtete darüber.
Der Kipppunkt für Solarenergie sei bereits überschritten und Deutschland hat hierbei eine Schlüsselrolle gespielt.
Inzwischen will China die Vorreiterschaft bei erneuerbaren Energien übernehmen - auch wenn sie aktuell auch noch Kohle nutzen. Susanne Götze und Annika Joeres schreiben in ihrem Buch "Die MilliardenLobby", dass China so massiv in Solarenergie investiert, weil sie von anderen (autokratischen) Ländern unabhängig werden will.@annikajoeres.bsky.social @susannegoetze

The billionaire #media stopped working for humanity a long time ago. If they truly cared about us they would be screaming from the rooftops about the how close we are to #ClimateTippingPoints, locking in a future where most of human civilisation will fail. The truth is that we are not on track to prevent collapse. Traditional #media has shown their true colours, and so me, you, we, are the #media now.

Brand new 52min documentary on #ClimateTippingPoints with
#Rockström, #Rahmstorf, @weatherwest #Swain and a few others.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U8pLrRkqbb0The scientists speak a little into the camera, then the filmmaker either illustrates the spoken words with aerial nature scenes or with clear, animated graphics.
English with English subtitles. I like it!Again, the 7%-water-rule comes up.
Eye opener: 7% at +1.5C is more water vapour than what 7% was at +1C. Same principle as in how the rich get richer faster.Not answered: most land mass has more than +1C, Germany in summer can be +3C, places in the Adriatic sea +5C this August.
So do we apply the 7%-rule to the local deviation from the normal in order to express or to guage the water hunger of the air in this particular parcel?
And also, what happens when the wind drives one parcel away after it drank its fill from soil, plants, water bodies, and a new parcel comes in, heats up to the local deviation, drinks its fill, and moves. I mean, shouldn't the inner continents be all dried up by now?
Or maybe the act of evaporation cools the place enough for a new parcel that moves in, to be sufficiently shocked into raining down what it had sucked up elsewhere...hm.
Anyway. Good documentary! -

CW: #climate tipping point?
Nice article tooted by @jhaue . But I have a qualm in this framing by the writer, Mr. Carrington, @dpcarrington , in which the door is left open right from the masthead* to discredit the building body of evidence that we face several #ClimateTippingPoints. Certainly "scientists" (all of them?) disagree with the findings of this one paper because science as a process is one big disagreement. This framing of "hero science" (where one magical paper is published by a genius and clears up all standing questions like a magic wand) has, in my opinion, held climate science back for decades. All of the scientists quoted within Mr. Carrington's article did splendidly at pointing out the nature of disagreements and the small importance of individual studies (relative to the convergence of the large body of literature). We must convey this better to the public - science is a giant argument with rules and formalities, but when it converges it is extremely powerful at finding truth. We have been finding truth about climate change for decades, but framing like this helps the even more powerful disinformation campaigns sponsored by our petroleum companies and other corporate interests.
*Perhaps it is unfair to pin the masthead on Mr. Carrington - this could have been an editorial decision.

Climate tipping points could lock in unstoppable changes to the planet – how close are they? Scientists have identified nine climate tipping points that could trigger cascades of feedback and lead to abrupt and irreversible shifts in the Earth system. Some of them may already have been passed, such as the collapse of the Greenland ice sheet3.
