Once the public finds out about it they will demand that action be taken and the politicians will respond. This will galvanise us into one unified world and we will face the challenges this century has placed before us together.

Quoting myself here from a couple of days ago, because...mcbexx posted:Maybe the toxic algae could flip a switch and produce CO instead of O2 for some primo lols and lmaos. Ah well, close enough. The time frame is a bit worrisome, I'll admit. I was hoping I would be able to sneak out before everything goes to poo poo, but it looks like I will have ample opportunity to scream "I told you so" in my friends' faces. Just kidding, I just can't talk to them about all this, this is too dire, holy gently caress. At this point I can only assume some governments are aware and this is kept from broader public knowledge to avoid mass panic until it's undeniably starting to go to poo poo. Just imagine someone putting up that graph at the next UN council meeting... mcbexx has issued a correction as of 10:26 on Oct 15, 2021 |

What mass panic? Our brains don't work 25 years into the future. I'm going to get cancer, or heart disease, or suicide, or covid, or car accident , or any number of horrible ways to die at some point between and 50 years from now. I'm not panicked. People might get depressed or cynical but nobody is panicking over some poo poo that's not even happening this year.

I'd like to think that some people still might have enough empathy left in them to actually think about the children, if not as a concept of future generations in general, then maybe their very own. But on the other hand, denial and repression are the only things we can take comfort in, so buckle in and duck your head. Maybe, maybe this is just another of those crazy tinfoil hat conspiracies. Or Elon will save us by inventing nanotech plankton.

Cup Runneth Over posted:Frankly the most amazing thing on that graph is the assertion that all marine life and fish will be dead before 2050. Our oceans will be barren, acidic graveyards. That's just an incredible premise. The potential for content is literally unbelievable, I'm not jokerfied enough to truly envision it. Can we drink acid water? Yeah, I was ranting about this one a few years ago in this thread's predecessor before Trump got elected and my mind went. The dead spots will start growing and spreading in the oceans. It's going to smell bad too, BTW. Mola Yam posted:ocean dies, belches up 200 years of excess carbon it's been sucking down I know, right?

Give money to technology and it's only a matter of time until we solve the problem of the global ocean's final withering after we have already killed it. Sure our best shot now is barely identifying the problem right before it fucks us up after it's already decades too late but once everyone understands the severity of the problem there will be

I’ve been listening to a lot of the Fall Of Civilisations podcast and there’s so many striking parallels between every society he talks about and our own, and there’s very often a climate shift as a key stressor that topples the whole thing. Really makes you grateful to have been born at the end of history under the caring embrace of capitalism so we don’t have to worry about stuff like that

If you arent working around cancer inducing chemicals to ensure that you check out early without having to actually do the deed, then I think youre going to be around for some not fun stuff.

honestly that GOES paper shows that if anything, this thread needs to get off its lazy rear end, and get some doomerism published in a predatory open access journal somewhere. like thing of the feather in the cap of "the CSPAM climate thread is actually publishing science, what are you doing?" i'll be corresponding and last author if someone else writes the paper. if we pick the right pay-to-play journal, they'll probably even let us publish under our forum usernames.
