{DOOMED} July 2021 was Earth’s hottest month ever recorded, NOAA finds

ladies...take heed...dress appropriately...

 

Be careful what you ask for skippy

 

Yea, but freedom.

 

Bobby Shmurda must be about to drop a new single.

 

when do we start the new normal nude civilization?

 

Climate Change is something the World has always had. Y'all b****ing about how much is man-made is confusing, and NOAA has literally no idea.

BTW, They've been saying this for 100+ years...

 

I choose to believe in Hollow Earth because it's the most interesting conspiracy. My hope is that the beings within the Hollow Earth detect my faithfulness and allow me inside before the surface-dwellers all bake.

 

Jul 28, 2021

 

Can confirm. It was hotter than donut grease. Especially the 28th.

 

Ribbit

 

China and India don't care. It's truly futile without them fully on board.

 

China is massively investing in green technology.

The research by Rhodium Group says China emitted 27% of the world's greenhouse gases in 2019.

The US was the second-largest emitter at 11% while India was third with 6.6% of emissions, the think tank said.

Scientists warn that without an agreement between the US and China it will be hard to avert dangerous climate change.

China's emissions more than tripled over the previous three decades, the report from the US-based Rhodium Group added.

China’s carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions have grown at their fastest pace in more than a decade, increasing by 15% year-on-year in the first quarter of 2021, new analysis for Carbon Brief shows.

The post-pandemic surge means China’s emissions reached a new record high of nearly 12bn tonnes (GtCO2) in the year ending March 2021. This is some 600m tonnes (5%) above the total for 2019.

The analysis is based on official figures for the domestic production, import and export of fossil fuels and cement, as well as commercial data on changes in stocks of stored fuel.

The CO2 surge reflects a rebound from coronavirus lockdowns in early 2020, but also a post-Covid economic recovery that has so far been dominated by growth in construction, steel and cement.

China is responsible for roughly a quarter of global greenhouse gas emissions, and is likely to increase its carbon output this year. Without strong action from China, the world will be unable to hold back climate breakdown.

The country has a long-term target of reaching net zero emissions by 2060 but has yet to produce a national plan for its emissions this decade, as required under the 2015 Paris climate agreement......

Just how far China needs to go on coal was underlined this week in a paper in the journal Science. Researchers from the Chinese Academy of Sciences, and Germany’s Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research, found that China would need to reduce its carbon emissions by more than 90% and its energy consumption by nearly 40% by 2050, to do its share in reaching the Paris climate target of holding global heating within 1.5C of pre-industrial levels.

Separate research found that China would have to close half of its 1,100 coal-fired power plants this decade to stay within the 1.5C limit, but could reap $1.6tn in economic benefits from doing so.........

China also continues to fund coal development overseas, through its belt and road initiative of economic relationships around the world. Though Xi said in his White House speech that green issues were “key” to the belt and road, he offered no assurances on China’s policy of expanding coal development in other developing countries.......

Ending reliance on coal across the world will be difficult, as coal is embedded in the infrastructure, economy and even the culture of many countries, according to Birol.

Just like my son, we are being asked to ‘pay’ with the hope that we can win the prize of a cooler planet. But we may get nothing but lost jobs if we continue to blind ourselves to China’s continuing use of coal.

Some are waking up. Another schoolchild, Greta Thunberg, tweeted last month that “In 2020, China brought 38.4 gigawatts of new coal-fired power into operation, more than three times what was brought on line everywhere else”. To put that in context, 38 gigawatts is double the output of all of Australia’s coal fired power stations.

Greta is right. A recent report by the Global Energy Monitor and the Centre for Research on Energy and Clean Air found that construction approvals for coal fired power stations in China have tripled to 36.9 gigawatts, five times more than what is planned outside of China.

But a lot is planned elsewhere too. A report earlier this year found that Africa is likely to double the amount of coal and gas power it generates over the next decade. Around 700 million people in Africa lack access to electricity.

China last year committed to achieve net zero emissions by 2060 but you should always watch what people do, not what they say.

As Galina Alova, researcher at the Oxford Smith School of Enterprise and the Environment puts it: “There is a prominent narrative in the energy planning community that (Africa) will be able to take advantage of its vast renewable energy resources and rapidly decreasing clean technology prices to leapfrog to renewables by 2030 - but our analysis shows that overall it is not currently positioned to do so.”

At least India is honest. India’s climate negotiator, Chandrashekhar Dasgupta, recently told the Hindustan Times that committing to net zero emissions would impose “astronomical costs at a time when the economy is already reeling from the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic”.

He stated that any net zero emissions pledge should “not bind us to it individually”.
