Warming will ‘wipe out billions’
Anderson’s warning comes just eight days before global leaders meet in Copenhagen for the most crucial talks on climate change reversal since the Rio summit in 1992. Current Met Office projections reveal that the lack of action in the intervening 17 years – in which emissions of climate changing gases such as carbon dioxide have soared – has set the world on a path towards potential 4C rises as early as 2060, and 6C rises by the end of the century.
Anderson, who advises the government on climate change, said the consequences were “terrifying”.
“For humanity it’s a matter of life or death,” he said. “We will not make all human beings extinct as a few people with the right sort of resources may put themselves in the right parts of the world and survive.
“But I think it’s extremely unlikely that we wouldn’t have mass death at 4C. If you have got a population of nine billion by 2050 and you hit 4C, 5C or 6C, you might have half a billion people surviving.
Send the man some incontinence pads, this is the worlds greatest bed wetter. Why is climate science so full of extremely weak men? It is like science rejects found each other in the pseudo climate science club. He who fears the most gets promoted the most.
More shite! Did 90% of the world’s population die during the Minoan Warm Period or the Roman Warm Period?
Everyone who moves from South Carolina to Florida dies a horrible death. People can’t adapt to four degrees of warming.
We flux 10 degrees between day and night….
….and it’s a living hell
It’s the tropics where people will die. 4.C warming can create deadly (wet bulb -> 35.C) heat-waves. If infrastructure (air conditioning or water supply) fails, then many die.
What is the “perfect” temperature that would make everyone happy?
About 30 degrees warmer than it is here today.
The perfect temperature is about $120 Billion per year given to the corrupt, immoral, crooked, nepotistic beurocrats of the UN.
Once you hand over the money, everything will be fine and dandy.
But what are the greenies wining about. That is what they want to save the earth … kill of the people … as long as it isn’t their main squeeze and with nice temperatures they will be able to grow great dope. Mission accomplished.
Actually, living kills 100% of the population. Just not all at once.
Life is Lethal!
I read the other day that global warming will kill 10 billion in the next 50 years, now it is just 6.5 billion. Wow I like this trend. In a few more years they will be predicting, “Global Warming causes Population Explosion”…
These people have been reading too many comic books. Will Superman save the plantet from global warming? What a joke!
Of course global warming is continuing unabated, it is LIA rebound, 0.57 degrees C per century for the last 200 years!. All very natural mind you. This is according to NOAA/NCDC data set titled NOAA Confirms Recent Global Temperature Change is Historically Small & Warming is Decelerating. The graph that is most interesting shows the annual global temperature (AGT) change 1880-2010 vs. ppm CO2. It becomes obvious that rising levels of CO2 have had little or no impact on AGT’s during this time. Also, the temperature changes appear to be well within normal variability. Since 2001, AGTs are increasing 0.14 degree C per century. So, earth is cooling down. Unprecedented global warming is not occurring.
Man is the most adaptive creature on the planet… why would we not adapt to this. Money and greed are the two reasons we’re still burning fossil fuels. We’ve had other sources of more energy than we can consume and it’s maintenance free, for decades.
I’m old enough to remember when we were going to have mass death by 2000. Ah, the good old days.
I hope all of you are listening and pass on to all what I have to say. Sadly we humans have damaged the Earth environmentally in such a way that we have set in motion an environmental catastrophe that will lead to the end of most if not all human life on Earth. We have destroyed Earth’s delicate balance that is needed to produce rain. The Earth needs two things to survive. It needs trees and clouds big enough to produce rain. Clouds that do not produce rain are just water sponges in the sky that disappear after not producing rain but instead sooner or later turn into water-less molecules, disappearing water molecules! Unfortunately right now the Earth is in a stage that has water evaporating and sometimes making clouds. But all the Earth’s evaporated water doesn’t produce enough rain right now in many areas. The Earth will produce record rainfall in certain ares but that is part of the process in Nature’s way of reacting to what we have dealth it! Cold molecules bunch together just as hot molecules bunch together. With global warming these molecules attraction happen more severely and concentrated. As time goes on the heat overtakes the cold molecules and the Earth gets warmer and in worse shape. As time goes on many of the Earth’s areas go into a permanent dry period that will result in it becoming like a desert. In time the rest of the Earth also follows as there is less and less rain due to the fact that there is less and less cold air which is caused by the melting of the glaciers and ice caps and all the pollution we humans created! The Earth will start to have really bad weather worldwide in about 20 years. Even though the Earth is beyond the beginning of the end we are now approaching the point of no return. Once the North and South poles have lost most of their ice the Earth’s ability to produce clouds will be so severe that the sun will heat up the Earth and start the evaporation of all water on Earth. In ten to twenty years after that the Earth’s plant life will have all died as well as most of the human race due to starvation and disease. WE CAN STOP GLOBAL WARMING IMMEDIATELY BY NOT FLYING ANYMORE TURBO JET ENGINE AIRPLANES!!! TURBO JET ENGINE AIRPLANES ARE THE ONLY AND I REPEAT ONLY THING THAT WE HUMANS PUT UP INTO THE UPPER ATMOSPHERE WHERE RAIN IS PRODUCED THAT DESTROYS DIRECTLY THE EARTH’S ABILITY TO CREATE RAIN. HEAR ME OUT!!! A TURBO JET ENGINE AIRPLANE’S EXHAUST IS FROM 800 DEGREES FOR COMMERCIAL TURBO JET ENGINE AIRPLANES AND 1500 TO 2500 DEGREES FOR MILITARY TURBO JET ENGINE AIRPLANES. tHE JETS HEATED EXHAUST AND ALL IT’S POLLUTANTS ARE RELEASED INTO THE RAIN PRODUCING UPPER ATMOSPHERE WHERE THE TEMPERATURE USED TO BE 32 DEGREES BELOW ZERO!!! THESE TURBO JET ENGINE AIRPLANES ARE LEAVING STREAMS OF HOT AIR AROUND THE GLOBE ON SUCH A MASSIVE SCALE THAT THE NATURE CANNOT OVERCOME THE ROBBING OF RAIN PRODUCING MOLECULES BY THESE TURBO JET ENGINE AIRPLANES. ONE TURBO JET ENGINE AIRPLANE WILL IN TWO MINUTES BURN UP AND FOREVER DESTROY ENOUGH RAIN PRODUCING MOLECULES TO FILL AN ENCLOSED SUPER SIZE FOOTBALL STADIUM. ROCKETS AND BOMBS ARE EVEN WORSE!!! WE CAN END GLOBAL WARMING NOW BY NOT FLYING ANY MORE TURBO JET ENGINE AIRPLANES AND INSTEAD GO BACK TO FLYING PROPELLER AIRPLANES WHICH DO NOT BURN UP RAIN PRODUCING MOLECULES!!! TO PROVE THAT I AM RIGHT ALL YOU HAVE TO DO IS LOOK AT THE WEATHER MAPS FROM 1950 ON. YOU WILL SEE THAT WE HAVE HAD A STEADY DECLINE OF CLOUDS AND RAIN SINCE THE INTRODUCTION OF THE TURBO JET ENGINE AIRPLANES IN 1958 OR SO. THESE TURBO JET ENGINE AIRPLANES WEREN’T WIDELY USED UNTIL THE LATE 1960’S. IN THE EARLY 70’S GLOBAL WARMING STARTED TO BE NOTICED AND EVER SINCE IT HAS BEEN GETTING WORSE. LOOK AT THE WEATHER MAPS BEFORE AND AFTER 9/11. WE DIDN’T HAVE ANY AIRPLANE TRAFFIC WORLD WIDE. YOU WILL SEE ON THE WEATHER MAPS THAT THE CLOUDS AROUND THE WORLD AMASSED A LOT MORE FOR ABOUT A WEEK AFTER 9/11 BECAUSE OF HARDLY ANY AIRPLANE TRAFFIC!!! IF WE CAN NOW GET THE EARTH TO PRODUCE MORE CLOUDS THEN THAT ALONE WILL HELP COOL THE EARTH BECAUSE EVERYONE KNOWS THAT IT’S ALWAYS COOLER IN THE SHADE! IT’S UP TO YOU FOLKS, EITHER SAVE THE EARTH NOW OR OUR CHILDREN AND THEIR CHILDREN WILL BE FACING THE END OF HUMAN CIVILIZATION AS WE KNOW IT BECAUSE THE ONLY ONES LEFT TO LIVE WILL BE THOSE THAT FIND UNDERGROUND WATER AND FIGURE OUT A WAY TO CREATE EATABLE PLANT LIFE WITH THAT WATER!! GOOD LUCK EVERYONE BECAUSE BEING THAT I HAVE ONLY A SHORT TIME TO LIVE I WON’T HAVE TO FACE THIS MESS WE CREATED!!! .
Actually, jet engines produce more clouds, and thus more rain. It’s their greenhouse gas emissions that contribute to global warming.
As advanced as our science and knowledge is today, it is tragic that we cannot yet figure out how to make climate change kill off only the GOP.
