(EMISSIONS DON'T GROWTH)
"the new van Vuuren et al 2026 paper on the emissions scenarios will be used in the upcoming IPCC 7th Assessment Report"
The opposite is true! They're growing as big oil interest inside the IPCC

'#DataColonialism': Native Communities Fight #AI #DataCenters on #IndigenousLand
#DemocracyNow, April 22, 2026
"The artificial intelligence industry’s #DataCenter boom is the latest chapter in a long history of #EnvironmentalRacism and resource exploitation in vulnerable Native communities, says Oglala Lakota and Northern Cheyenne activist #KrystalTwoBulls, the executive director of #HonorTheEarth, an Indigenous-led #EnvironmentalJustice organization that is tracking over 100 proposed data center projects on tribal and rural lands. We speak to Two Bulls about the myriad impacts of what she calls a 'modern-day iteration' of '#SettlerColonialism,' including #NoisePollution, #cancers and respiratory illnesses, water depletion, #EnergyGrid overload and even '#EcologicalCollapse.' As tech companies set their sights on Indigenous lands, Two Bulls says, 'We’re always the one that ends up having to sacrifice our relationship to land, air, water, our communities and our nonhuman relatives.' "

RE: https://mastodon.uno/@____/116424279026393312
The opposite is true, they're limits that we often recognize and understand only after we have crossed them—as we are unfortunately learning the hard way—transgressions that trigger a chain of serious and irreversible consequences.

"Last month was the second warmest March in Europe since weather records began, according to the European Earth observation service Copernicus . The average temperature of 5.88°C was significantly higher – by 2.27°C – than the reference value for the years 1991 to 2020.While large parts of the continent were drier than average, regions such as the Mediterranean and Scandinavia experienced flooding due to heavy rainfall"

It’s kind of disappointing that gas prices seem to be the only thing that people care about when it comes to global politics. 🫤
I mean, there’s your #Genocide, #IllegalOccupation, #WarCrimes, #Fascism, #ClimateCrisis, #EcologicalCollapse, etc. but sure, the fact that it costs more to drive your ridiculous clown-car to the drive-through is the big issue here.

There are even greater limitations on modelling the behaviour of human beings and state entities. The improbable outcome of the IPCC models was due to political mediation with fossil fuel companies, whose behaviour we unfortunately know all too well.

Serious water pollution incidents up 60% in #England, Environment Agency says
Esme Stallard, July 18, 2025
Excerpt: "Every year the Environment Agency records the number of times pollution such as untreated sewage is released from water company sites such as treatment works into the country's waterways.
Just three companies were responsible for the vast majority of the most serious incidents - #ThamesWater (33), #SouthernWater (15) and #YorkshireWater (13).
" 'These figures expose a brutal truth. Serious #pollution incidents are rising, #sewage discharges remain rampant, and our rivers are spiralling toward #EcologicalCollapse. This is not just regulatory failure; it is a national disgrace,' said #RiverAction CEO James Wallace."

‘Half the tree of life’: #ecologists’ horror as #nature reserves are emptied of #insects
A new point in history has been reached, #entomologists say, as #climate-led species’ collapse moves up the food chain even in supposedly protected regions free of #pesticides
The declines witnessed by Janzen and others around world – are part of what some ecologists call “new era” of #ecologicalcollapse, rapid #extinctions occur in regions that have little direct contact with people.

Season Two Episode Ten: Ecofascism and Rewilding: A Conversation With Ariel Kroon and Christina De La Rocha
There’s no question that the biosphere is in crisis right now thanks to human-driven global warming, our hostile takeover of most of Earth’s land area, and our pollution and overfishing of the seas. Slowing down—never mind outright stopping—the collapse of the Earth’s ecosystems and the mass extinction currently gaining pace calls for aggressively protecting the environment, or possibly even giving half of the Earth’s land surface back to nature in a process known as rewilding.
But how will we manage to share the Earth with the rest of the biosphere when history shows that we’re pretty terrible at sharing it with each other, with some states even going so far as to have used the preservation of wilderness as a tool of genocide and white supremacy? There are still those who would use environmental protection as an excuse to block immigrants, reject refugees, and expel “undesirable” people from the land. What will it take to value human and non-human life and the land all equally, without using one as an excuse to persecute the other?
Getting urgently-needed environmental protection and rewilding right requires facing the evils that have been historically committed in the name of conservation, so that we don’t repeat those grave mistakes, even with the best of intentions. As solarpunks, we need to learn from the past in order to shape futures that are intentionally better than our pasts and presents.

'He cited a WFP project in Niger in which local women had created micro-dams in arid land to slow the movement of water, then used dung and straw to create a basin in which trees could be planted. The trees created shade from the sun, allowing the women to grow fruit and vegetables. “Suddenly, within the space of three to five years, the place that was really a desert comes back as agricultural production land without artificial irrigation,” he said.'
Technology will not save us from #ClimateChange and #EcologicalCollapse. Literally slowing things down can save us, though. #Degrowth

This #EarthDay, here's a reminder that environmentalism without class struggle is just gardening*.
*Nothing against gardening, but we're currently facing global ecological collapse within our lifetimes.

“When we think of extinction, we think of individual species. But nature doesn’t operate like that. Entire communities and even whole ecosystems are now so compromised they could be lost entirely. Australia now has about 100 ecological communities at risk.
“One of those is the iconic Mountain Ash (Eucalyptus regnans) community in Victoria’s Central Highlands…decades of logging, repeated wildfires, and fragmentation of these forests means they and the species which rely on them like Leadbeater’s possum and gliders now face existential threats.”

As far as I can see, there are only three positive things we've seen in regards to avoiding #EcologicalCollapse:
1. The price of photovoltaics and renewable energy is dropping faster than anyone thought possible.
2. The beginning of the pandemic showed our society can function surprisingly well with remote communication instead of carbon intensive travel.
3. The current phase of the pandemic is showing capitalism might sabotage itself by killing or disabling most of its workers and consumers.
