Your mother called and said to stop being so overly dramatic, it’s just a paper cut
Big Smile, No Teeth: Did you realise? We’re living in a disaster movie
The future is now. Unfortunately, when I say that I mean the disaster of a future we all feared would show up when we spoke about the need to curb climate change.
Cape Town, South Africa, was fast headed to Day Zero, the day the water would run out, which was staved off only by the residents learning to use substantially less water; now, winter rains are refilling their depleted reservoirs.
The summer’s global heatwave has seen hundreds of people killed by heatstroke across the globe as countries see new temperature records, with Japan hitting 41.1°C, a city in Algeria, Ouargla, recording the highest temperature in Africa at 51.3°C, and a town called Quriyat in Oman logging the hottest ever night in recorded history at 42.6°C.
This is not normal weather. (proof?)
Having a heatwave somewhere in the world isn’t surprising. Having a heatwave everywhere in the world at the same time is the start of a disaster movie starring Dwayne “The Rock†Johnson. This is not going anywhere good.
Well, that movie didn’t do so well, and Climatruthers do not want to change their behavior to match their talking points. Anyway, the author continues his tale of dooooom, ending with
And so too must the rest of the world. We can make changes to help decrease our carbon footprint. We have to. Just like the residents of Cape Town, all of us have to do what it takes to avoid global disaster.
Humans have a tendency to wait until the last moment to jump out of the way of disaster even though we can see it coming from a long way off.
We must demand decisive action on climate change from our governments because the third act of that disaster movie is coming up and we want a happy ending.
Funny, writer Jason Godfrey forgets to offer solutions. Nor did Andy Martin with his “Climate change has doomed us – now what on earth should we do about it?” essay. Just lots of gloom and doom and whining and stuff. I had a boss way back in the day who said “if you’re not offering solutions, you’re just whining.” You know what my solution would be: Warmists should walk the talk and make their lives carbon neutral.
Why do you care?
35%ers, if they understand that the Earth is warming at all, don’t understand that it’s caused by CO2 pollution. According to your tribe there is nothing to solve.
We Earthlings need to transition from CO2-generating energy sources to non-CO2 generating sources. But even Tony Wuwt admits that another degree or so of warming is “baked in” based on the current CO2 concentration, even if we stopped CO2 production now.
OK, give up antibiotics, sanitation, clean water, instant communication to the best medical care in the world.

“Nothing to solve..†Solve what? Alarmists have yet to make a case or offer proof that “warming†is detrimental to earth, except for the normal assertions, speculations, ect.
I don’t know about anybody else, but we’re having an incredibly mild summer. Temps low 80s, high 70s.
This warming thing must be the result of all that legal marijuana.
I just happen to be watching “Planet Of The Sharks” (2016). Earth is under water because CO2 melted the polar ice caps. People are living on raft communities. The water is heating up and the sharks are looking for food on the surface and are attacking the rafts. The hot scientist has built a CO2 scrubber and plans to launch it on their 60-foot rocket, high into the atmosphere where it will scrub the CO2 and save the planet before the sharks eat them all.
I’m pretty sure they could submit this screenplay to New Scientist and get it peer reviewed and published as a model.
… this is the scientist that is going to save the planet by forcing the CO2 atoms into a plasma state or something. Stephanie Beran:

I’m kinda feeling the plasma already
