If you want to convince me Geoengineering is a bad idea, you must first convince me that AMOC collapse, permarfost thaw, wetland methane feedbacks, collapsing carbon sinks, Amazon dieback, Twaithes collapse etc. can be solved by emissions reductions alone.

Second hottest year on record. Average temperature for the past 3 years more than 1.5C above pre-industrial levels. 10 hottest years on record the last 10 years. It remains truly mind-blowing this is not the biggest story in the world every day. www.businessgreen.com/news/4522952...

'As scientists, we are increasingly being asked to tell the public the truth about the crises we face in simple and direct terms.

The truth is that we are shocked by the ferocity of the extreme weather events in 2023.

We are afraid of the uncharted territory that we have now entered.'

They're using the confinement box, one of the most horrific methods of CIA torture in the post-9/11 black sites, against migrants now. This is the direct result of the lack of consequences for the architects of the torture program. Either there will be criminal penalties for this or it will expand.

Amnesty International, interviewing migrant detainees, identifies use of the confinement box. There can be no denying it is a torture prison

If you're one of those who's swallowed the lie that "plants and trees are having a party with all the increased CO2 in the atmosphere and flourishing, it's all good", please read this.

Natural ecosystems ARE vital allies in the fight against climate breakdown, but that can only go so far.
When global temperatures shot up by ~6°C about 56 million years ago, plants were unable to thrive

The reduced ability of vegetation & soils to capture & store carbon may have kept temperatures elevated for >100,000 years

Today Earth is warming ~10 times faster than it did 56 million years ago
56 million years ago, the Earth suddenly heated up – and many plants stopped working properly
It could be a sign of what’s to come.

The US is saying the quiet parts out loud..

'We reject the disastrous “climate change” and “Net Zero” ideologies'

'Expanding our net energy exports will also deepen relationships with allies [..] and enables us to project power.'

Is this the 'ally' Europe wants to depend on for its energy supply?
