Greenhouse gases reach a new record as nations fall behind on climate pledges

22. We are soooooooo fucked

Two tipping points we’ll see with in the next 5-10 years: 1) coral reefs dead due to acidification of the oceans 2) massive glacial melts in the Antarctic and in greenland

The result? Massive ocean rise and a giant chunk of our food vanished (seafood)

On top of that, due to rising temps, more evaporation, which means more water moisture in the atmosphere which means the likelihood of wet bulb temps increasing world wide.

Anyone paying the very least amount of attention should be hair on fire fucking terrified.

And this is just at 2.5. I can guaran-god-damn-tee you that’s the conservative estimate

The statements by climate scientists who don’t hold anything back and study this for a living, say that we will be lucky if we can hold it under 3.5

But they dumb down the studies so not to “freak” people out.

On the surface, 2.5 degrees should freak the people out, but it doesn’t. They should just tell the unvarnished truth and say we are completely fucked.
