So I guess I'm spending my 30's training to battle for expired cans of Dinki Di's dog food I wouldn't bank on this at all, it's unlikely we won't get another depression (or "recession") before 2030 (should be half a decade sooner than that at the latest and it's probably tomorrow) that when compounded by climate change will early-release Mad Max (in select cities) (don't think only Global South either). I'm still not at all convinced that one degree warming is as bad as IPCC and relevant bodies think, it's much worse and we're starting to notice it this year (stay tuned!). Should I buy an RV? Strap some solar panels on it? Or war boys?

If you plan to raid then the thing you should first acquire is armor that is going to protect you while not being super heavy. I am being half facetious. Moridin920 has issued a correction as of 22:38 on Jun 3, 2019 |

and don't forget - some types of forests aren't actually carbon sinks and may fact be carbon sources! good luck with those trees though

Wakko posted:crosspost from tromipp for The actual paper is loving terrifying and probably least sugarcoated thing I've ever read. Holy gently caress. "The IPCC has been criticized for being "too alarmist. If anything, it is the opposite. With their latest report, they have been overly conservative." “planetary and human systems [are] reaching a ‘point of no return’ by mid-century, in which the prospect of a largely uninhabitable Earth leads to the breakdown of nations and the international order.” “Even for 2°C of warming, more than a billion people may need to be relocated and in high-end scenarios, the scale of destruction is beyond our capacity to model with a high likelihood of human civilization coming to an end,” "By 2050 Thirty-five percent of the global land area, and 55 percent of the global population, are subject to more than 20 days a year of lethal heat conditions, beyond the threshold ofhuman survivability." "threatens the premature extinction of Earth- originating intelligent life or the permanent and drastic destruction of its potential for desirable future development”. Copying and pasting from it is a bitch because the formatting allows all the words to run into each other and they have to be manually re-spaced after pasting, so holy poo poo, just go read it in full.

I imagine the common understanding of modern civilization by way of its fixtures: global telecommunication, global just-in-time logistics networks, constant economic growth, and nation-states structured around the concept of Westphalian sovereignty.
