Imagine how cheap a burger made of legumes could be if it received 580 times more subsidies, like beef does. Imagine how cheap nut milk could be if it received 554 time more subsidies, like dairy. Imagine how cheap fruits could be...

"...lasting into near-term human extinction".

#EU spends hundreds of times more subsidies on high-emissions beef and dairy than legumes and nuts

We could end half of all climate heating (W/m2) overnight. That we don't even discuss it, shows that we are not serious about wanting to live on.

“Population growth and rising incomes remain the strongest drivers of increases in CO2 emissions."
- IPCC, 2022

I follow #climate aware and liberal people and they don't talk about reducing the population or ending meat and private cars. Well, except maybe for a few vegans. The End.

#BAU is #NTHE

I think this graph below was made up by "social scientists" who think they are "Earth scientists". I think this graph here captures our growth predicament better than anything else that I've seen. No bell curves. A cliff.

There is net zero difference between left liberals and right nazis today. No difference between believers and atheists, between cultures and languages and colors.

All want to make babies, eat animals, drive cars, fly on holiday, keep pets. Nobody wants to give this up.

Expect A LOT of talk about extreme weather catastrophes.
We will claim it’s due to El Nino (which has NO agency).

Expect NO talk, net zero, about growing human populations and growing consumption (of animals and cars) per person.

Racing to near-term human extinction.

What happens over the next 8-10 years? Here I translate °C into food, water, $ and time.

Money is a made up social contract. Currency is backed by sentiment and not sediment. The realisation that one cannot eat money or gold will happen sooner than expected.

We don’t like it when something is irreversible because we fear regrets… We don’t want to stop doing bad things because it reminds us that we do bad things. We want to do good things like solar, EVs, carbon removal and solar radiation management... We want to do more, not less.

#hothouse #NTHE

The ☯️ of near-term human extinction:

Expect more talk about solar, EVs, carbon removal and solar radiation management.

Do NOT expect any discussions about population reduction or nonhuman animal slavery.

The wings of Icarus look intact. Only a few wax feathers are melting. Icarus is still ascending.

The cup is still mostly whole and still holds most of the liquid but it's still falling.

Indeed. Here Eichmann’s words.

Note: It’s not about human beings. It’s about all beings.

🪫 We talk about gas, oil or wheat reserves. We can go into debt when it comes to money but what if there is no energy or food reserves?

What are nature’s reserves? What are the ‘risks’ of low nature reserves?

"Humans could become extinct by the year 2100"

Subjunctive mood strikes, again. Wars have empirically increased our chances of survival as they lead to less populations and consumption growth. Like pandemics or AI gone bad. Population growth and increasing meat consumptions is locking in #NTHE.

Scientists like Zeke Hausfather have known that growth is growing and yet... Again, growth is growing for CO2 and climate forcing (W/m2). Where do we go from here?

Would it help if we grew the human population and eating meat in the meantime too?

#NTHE

2022 was the last time I discussed symptoms like extreme weather events. How much “documenting the obvious” do we need?

Like the guy at the party who has to explain to people what is happening at the party instead of partying..

Show me babies, meat or cars and I show you extreme weather and #NTHE

I live right next to the Danube. Back in 2022, the low levels “motivated” me to help co-launch a civil disobedience movement. The Last Movement.

It ended in 2024 for obvious reasons:
“Gesellschaft und Regierung wollten keinen Klimaschutz.”

Today, we can still do acceptance activism.
