“Scientists tell us we have a 10-year window — if even that — before catastrophic climate change becomes inevitable and irreversible. The threat is real, and time is not on our side.Facts, as John Adams said, are stubborn things. Here are a few you need to know: Atmospheric carbon-dioxide levels have risen 38% in the industrial era, from 280 to 385 parts per million (ppm). Scientists have warned that anything above 450 ppm — a warming of 2 degrees Celsius — will result in an unacceptable risk of catastrophic climate change.

The truth is that the threat we face is not an abstract concern for the future. It is already upon us and its effects are being felt worldwide, right now. Scientists project that the Arctic will be ice-free in the summer of 2013. Not in 2050, but four years from now.”

DENVER (AP) — The Midwest is buried under unusually heavy snows.

California goes through two winters of extreme drought, then is inundated by rain. The South shivers with unaccustomed cold.

Recurrent drought brings famine and death to areas of West Africa. India is soaked by floods; northern Europe battered by severe storms.

What’s happening to our climate” Do such increasingly frequent extremes portend a new pattern? Are we headed for another ice age? Or trouble from a gradual heating of the Earth by mankind’s industrial and agricultural activities?

One thing is indisputable: the world has been cooling off since World War II, something like one degree Fahrenheit.”

“A victory for Donald Trump in November’s presidential election could lead to an additional 4bn tonnes of US emissions by 2030 compared with Joe Biden’s plans, Carbon Brief analysis reveals.

This extra 4bn tonnes of carbon dioxide equivalent (GtCO2e) by 2030 would cause global climate damages worth more than $900bn, based on the latest US government valuations.”

“Shifts In World Climate Since 1945 Help Explain Severe Food Crisis

By PETER J. BERNSTEIN

WASHINGTON — The devastating food shortage that has millions of the world’s poor people in its grip is directly related to what climatologists increasingly suspect is a gradual global cooling process that is causing erratic weather changes from one year to the next,”
