Big Banks Quietly Prepare for Catastrophic Climate Change
#MorganStanley, #JPMorgan and an international banking group have quietly concluded that #ClimateChange will likely exceed the #ParisAgreement's 2 degree goal and are examining how to maintain profits.
The big banks' acknowledgment that the world is likely to fail at preventing warming of more than 2 degrees Celsius above preindustrial levels is spelled out in obscure reports for clients, investors and trade association members. Most were published after the reelection of President Donald Trump, who is seeking to repeal federal policies that support clean energy while turbocharging the production of oil, gas and coal — the main sources of #GlobalWarming.
"We now expect a 3°C world," Morgan Stanley analysts wrote earlier this month, citing "recent setbacks to global decarbonization efforts."
Morgan Stanley’s #climate forecast was tucked into a mundane research report on the future of air conditioning stocks, which it provided to clients on March 17. A 3 degree warming scenario, the analysts determined, could more than double the growth rate of the $235 billion cooling market every year, from 3 percent to 7 percent until 2030.
What climate crisis? I don't see any climate crisis. Do you see a climate crisis?

More than 17,000 people in Canada’s western Manitoba province were being evacuated on Wednesday as the region experienced its worst start to the wildfire season in years.
“The Manitoba government has declared a province-wide state of emergency due to the wildfire situation,” Manitoba’s premier, Wab Kinew, told a news conference. “This is the largest evacuation Manitoba will have seen in most people’s living memory.”
The climate crisis has made wildfires in Canada more frequent and intense. The country has been hit with devastating fires in recent years, including in 2023, the most destructive on record.
There are now 134 active fires across Canada, including in British Columbia, Alberta, Saskatchewan, Manitoba, and Ontario. Half are considered out of control.

#Trump: …I’ve been meeting w/heads of… #forest countries, call themselves forest, Austria & others... they say we're a forest nation.

I continue to be utterly appalled at the ignorance, uneducated opinions and disgusting bigoted comments on the information posts that are giving out details about the terrible wildfires in Saskatchewan and Manitoba. No you utter morons, “they” are not starting fires to burn out “everyone” and move immigrants in, no the magnitude of these fires is not due to “arson”, the cause is climate change. It does not matter at all HOW they start, there are hundreds of little fires started for dozens of difference reasons all the time all over the place. The difference is that in horrific drought conditions coupled with high winds, the fires cannot be quickly put out as is usually the case. The fires grow into the monster that feeds itself and changes the local weather right at the fire and become impossible to stop. This used to happen occasionally in smaller areas. Now it is half the damn country and all around the planet facing these conditions. This is CLIMATE CHANGE. Climate change is caused by burning fossil fuels, not by lizard people, the homeless, immigrants, leftists or any other scapegoat spouted about. Now if y'all had listened to us decades ago when we were telling you that developing other ways of making energy might be a damn good idea, we might be pumping a fraction of the greenhouse gases into the atmosphere right now instead of this absolutely hellscape we have.
The absolutely BEST prep you can do is not let your family, friends or neighbours get away with saying this crap and spreading this nonsense. Tell people what is happening and why. I don't know if it's possible to stop this insanity now but if there is going to be a future on this planet, we have to encourage and support the engineers, the scientists, the inventors to keep finding and improving on better and cleaner sources of power. Meanwhile the rest of us need to use less energy, any way and every way we can.
Urge your Congressmember to stand firm against the assaults on our #democracy, the #judiciary & the rule of #law by rejecting the #JUDGES Act, the #PEPPER Act, the #NORRA Act & The #NIAP Act today.

Holy crap
The #Trump's admin has fired ALL of the authors of the US govt's signature study that informs federal & local govts on how to prepare for #ClimateChange impacts, acc/to an email sent to them on Monday.
The dismissal of nearly 400 contributors to the 6th National #Climate Assessment, which is #mandated by #Congress, leaves the future of the report in doubt since the multi-year, peer-reviewed analysis is due for publication in 2028.

Trump’s EPA Plans to Stop Collecting Greenhouse Gas Emissions Data From Most Polluters
—
Climate experts expressed shock and dismay at the move. “It would be a bit like unplugging the equipment that monitors the vital signs of a patient that is critically ill,” one said.

We were too cautious. It's happening faster than we anticipated and the impacts are going to be worse.

Governments are willing to do anything to protect citizens from the impacts of #ClimateChange. Except stop climate change.
Window dressing doesn't protect people. Stopping fossil fuels will.

💣 💥 How the #Military_Industrial_Complex Affects OUR #POLLUTION_CRISIS | #ROOT_CAUSE OF MAJOR #POLLUTION IS #MILITARY_EMISSIONS [aka #MAN_MADE POLLUTION ??]
THE WEF (NAZI) FEAR MONGERS CONVENIENTLY LEFT OUT THE ROOT CAUSE 99.99% OF CLIMATE CHANGE = #USA AND #PROXY_WAR = #MILITARY_EMISSIONS!!
1. VIDEO: https://youtu.be/9id-a1Zm_0I
One of the Largest #EMITTERS of #POLLUTION (aka Climate Change) is the #Military and therefore the NEXT STEP is that we NEED TRANSPARENCY of Military Emissions AND THOSE EMISSIONS (POLLUTION) NEED TO BE #REDUCED ...2 decades ago!
What is a real threat is climate change’ — This U.S. Army vet is calling out the military for being one of the ‘largest emitters’ of carbon emissions.
The potential climate impact of the War on Terror is staggering, according to U.S. Army veteran Erik Edstrom. Edstrom is a West Point graduate, author, and former U.S. Army infantry officer who got out of the military after serving Afghanistan to study climate change and finance at Oxford University. Edstrom says the 20-year-long Afghanistan War contributed enough carbon emissions to kill multitudes of people. His assessment is based on studies such as one published in Nature Communications, which estimated that approx 4,400 metric tons of CO2 emissions is enough to kill one person.
The U.S. Department of Defense is required to report its energy use to the Department of Energy’s Federal Energy Management Program. In FY2020, total estimated DoD greenhouse gas emissions based solely on fuel usage data were more than 51 million metric tons of CO2. That figure includes emissions from standard day-to-day operations as well as emissions from non-standard operations such as combat support, law enforcement, emergency response, and spaceflight. Edstrom says there’s more to be concerned with than just operating emissions.
Edstrom says the U.S. Department of Defense budget, which in fiscal year 2021 was more than $703 billion, is bolstered by fear. He thinks Americans’ fears are misguided. Edstrom thinks the future military will be more electric, but says requiring the military-industrial complex to report the full scope of its emissions, beyond just fuel usage, is a crucial step in getting there.

I've finished: A Half-Built Garden by Ruthanna Emrys
A Half-Built Garden is the most Fediversial novel I've read.
The anarchists have won. The corporations and nation states have been sidelined. Most of the world is under the control of egalitarian communities that use an alternative network to achieve consensus and work to rehabilitate the climate change ravaged earth.
This is very much a slice of life novel in the vain of Becky Chambers, centered around a communal lgbtqia+ household. But as opposed to most slice of life novels there is a major crisis, and it falls upon this community to save the day.
Aliens have made first contact and they insist that the only way for technological species to survive is to leave their biospheres behind and build Dyson Swarms.
As their way of life comes under threat from without and within, Will the dandelion network survive? Will the power of decisions through discussion and consensus overcome manipulation and coercion.
A special aspect of the aliens is the importance they place on the place of children in society.
PS:
I didn't expect this novel to be so Jewish, what a delight.
