Indeed - and too much emphasis on 'proving' things using methods they know cannot keep up, when it would be far more honest/simple to state it's obviously all bl**dy climate change now.

It might help if climate coverage 'leaders' like the Guardian - not to mention most leading scientists and especially the IPCC (present company excepted), told the truth about how bad they know things really are. open.substack.com/pub/jacksond...

Scientists and especially the IPCC massively underestimate speed of climate change and related risks - shock. Because their methods very obviously can't keep up. Will these people ever learn? open.substack.com/pub/jacksond...

Because global net-zero - an impossible target (without radical, massive reductions in activity no-one is planning) supposed to prevent us breaching a temp limit by 2100 we've already smashed through - is so meaningful. Farcical.

More proof - as if it were needed - of how far off the models are, especially those relied on by the IPCC. Not sure, however, about the 'optimistic' (complacent?) suggestion acceleration may be short-lived...

Thanks but I thought we were not in a La Niña? Climate Prediction Center: ENSO Diagnostic Discussion share.google/Z6sESLaseI5q...

Wow - this guy is deluded af. First dismisses Suzuki as 'a scientist'. Then lists a bunch of BS non-solutions we're not even doing any more. But then claims we are winning and losing simultaneously. In denial like so many in the green 'industry'.

Have you seen any suggested explanations for the June downturn please - even if this remains high compared to most previous years?

Regional acceleration of warming is much more apparent even:

Acceleration of global warming is more apparent when looking at the oceans:

This is hilarious. A rise of 4.3'C by 2070 'could' result in no further need for actuaries - or anything else, you numpties.

Yes it is. Still the Guardian can't stop itself finishing the article with an absurd 'hopeful' message about breeding resistant new strains or whatever, not remotely applicable on a planetary scale, if at all. Idiots.

Unbelievably complacent. Unbelievably misleading. The vast majority of global energy use is from fossil fuels. 'Renewables' are additional not alternative to these. Only drastic cuts in consumption/destruction could do anything now. But the green 'industry' can't tell you that.

That will make all the difference of course. Scientists - especially climate scientists and the IPCC - urgently need to find effective ways of communicating how bad, they know, things really are. open.substack.com/pub/jacksond...

Thanks but with genuine respect - who do the authors think will pay the slightest attention to this warning in this form? All the evidence shows the answer is no-one. Way more radical action/comms are urgently needed (as per suggestions in article posted) but starting with calling out the IPCC.

If only there was a conference where climate scientists asked themselves why everything gets worse so much faster than they predict - or the IPCC will tell anyone - with dire consequences for meaningful action jacksondamian.substack.com/p/madder-tha...

Zeke catches up only 2 years after the uber-conservative WMO declared the evidence for acceleration was unequivocal. 'Is global warming accelerating?' He muses. Really ffs.
