July Was World's Hottest Month on Record, Climate Scientists Say 132

Posted by msmash from the going-getting-worse dept.
July has been confirmed as the hottest month on record globally after several heatwaves in parts of Europe, according to the Copernicus Climate Change Service (C3S). From a report: The global average temperature was 16.95C last month, surpassing the previous record set in 2019 by a substantial 0.33C. Temperatures exceeded 40C last week in several countries across Europe including Greece, France, Italy and Spain. Wildfires forced the evacuation of thousands of residents and tourists from several Greek islands including Rhodes. There were also high temperatures in South American countries, despite it being winter there.

July is estimated to have been about 1.5C warmer than the average for 1850-1900, according to C3S, and 0.72C warmer than the 1991-2020 average. Dr Samantha Burgess, deputy director of C3S, said: "We just witnessed global air temperatures and global ocean surface temperatures set new all-time records in July. These records have dire consequences for both people and the planet exposed to ever more frequent and intense extreme events. Antarctic sea ice has also been at record lows this July, freezing less than in any other winter since satellites began observations in 1979.

      Honestly, you cant blame millennials. You can for sure blame boomer generation (1930s-1950s) and all those after. GenX had a chance to make changes and blew it.

      But if you really want to blame anyone specific, blame oligarchs. They make money on keeping things status quo. Change costs money, and they chose to instead spend that money on politicians, publications, and scientists. Give someone enough money, they will say whatever you want.

      And, can you blame them? The oligarchs continue to squeeze people so that they become desperate, making them sell their voice for access to food, homes, and anything out of reach of even middle class people.

      The laws supporting people putting their retirements into the stock market, for easier manipulation, has further corrupted people to desire status quo over long lasting improvements, because retired people dont give a shit. They want their money, to live like they deserve everything, and screw everyone else.

      But nice try there. Boomers are the ones that created a political and economic system that requires endless rapacious growth. Their parents were trying to move away from it and then they put the Reagan/Thatcher double combo in charge and have kept them and other's like them in charge since.

      One of two things is going to happen in the next 6-8 years. One way or another the boomers will stop voting. There's an age, around 72 or so, where you "age out" of voting. Nursing home age basically. Boomers are 6-8 years away from that.

      When that happens if we're still a democracy we'll get a new new deal. Go look up the car free community in Arizona. That'll spread everywhere. Culture War issues will go away. Gen M&Z see right through them. Declining birth rates will continue and make young people into valuable and well treated commodities. We'll start moving to that Star Trek Socialist Utopia we were promised 50 years ago before the boomers decided "Greed is Good".

      Or not. Look up "Project 2025". It's a plan from the Republican backed Heritage Foundation for the next GOP president to seize control of the Department of Justice & State Legislatures. The GOP is currently blocking all military appointments in the Senate, this forced the Senate to abdicate it's oversight of the Army moving that power into the executive branch. That is not an accident.

      So there's a good chance we won't be a Democracy in 8 years. Biden will probably win in 2024, but American voters are fickle and they might put a Republican in charge in 2028 for no other reason than "it's time for a change". If that happens Project 2025 goes into effect and we become like Russia & China, a Kleptocratic dictatorship.

      Nobody wants to hear this. Especially boomers and older Gen Xers who are planning to vote for it because they enjoy getting their buttons pushed by Fox News. I've lost track of the number of boomers who've told me they watch that crap because it's entertaining. Some of the start out as Democrats, but after 6 months to a year of Fox News it worms their way into their brains and before I know it they're sucking on Qanon. Look up "The Brainwashing of My Dad". That shit works.

      So it's 50/50. We're at a crossroads, where we'll decide if we become a dystopian fascist hellscape serving the needs of George Carlin's "Owners" or a nice little Democratic Socialist Utopia. And boomers want the fascism. They're old, confused, angry, bitter and in pain all the time no matter how many pills medicare give them. They're gonna try taking that out on their kids and grand kids. The little shits never visit anyway.

      • I don't think it's strictly a boomer problem. From the dawn of civilization, humanity has sought to expand, expand, expand - and if you doubt that, just ask Julius Caesar and Genghis Khan. It just so happens that we're very, very good at it now because we have advanced technology. If the industrial revolution happened in the days of the Roman Empire they would have been screwing up the planet, too. Always wanting more is a human nature problem, not specific to any particular generation.

    We cannot definitely identify a specific month being hot due to climate change, but it looks likely, and the general trend of many temperature records being broken around the globe should be concerning. At this point, pretty much no matter what happens we're going to have some pretty serious climate related issues. However, every little bit of CO2 we avoid putting out lessons the size of those problems while also giving us more time to make adjustments and take steps to either mitigate damage or to do more research into geoengineering if that proves necessary. So what can you do to help?

    There are three major categories you can help out with, personal, political and charitable.

    In terms of personal activity, you can take steps to reduce one's own carbon footprint. Eating less meat is an example, but there are many other things also. Installing solar panels on a home, reducing how much air conditioning was uses in the summer or reducing the heating in the winter help. Adding insulation to houses helps with that also. One can also drive less or even better not have a car, and try to use public transit and the like. Of course, many people do not have that as an option simply because where they live or other life obligations. So if one does need a car, then when one gets a new one, trying to get an electric car can help a lot. Only a small fraction of grid power needs to be from non-fossil fuel options for EVs to produce much less CO2 than conventional cars, and right now in the US, that applies almost everywhere with Wyoming and West Virginia being the only obvious major exceptions. https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2020/10/28/climate/how-electricity-generation-changed-in-your-state-election.html [nytimes.com]. If one is installing new heating or upgrading, consider strongly getting a heat pump system. They are not that expensive now in many places, and the modern ones work well even in pretty cold climates. All of these things do not just reduce CO2 but they save you money.

    Political activity means supporting parties and candidates who will help push for policies which will help deal with climate change, both by reducing CO2 and by taking steps to mitigate climate impact. Who this means varies a lot from country to country, but right now in the US, this generally means supporting Democrats and their candidates. The Democrats are not great on many aspects of climate change, and there is a subset of the party especially on the extreme left end which is unfortunately against nuclear power, but by and large the party is has many politicians taking major steps. The recent Inflation Reduction Act https://finance.yahoo.com/news/bidens-green-energy-law-is-turning-out-to-be-huge-201035230.html [yahoo.com] is succeeding both in helping the economy while adding a lot of green power. There used to be Republicans one could point to who were concerned about climate, and some of them like Christie Todd Whitman were really good about nuclear power. But by and large people like Whitman and others with similar concerns like Arnold Schwarzenegger have been largely pushed out of the party as it currently stands. This does *not* mean voting for any Democratic candidate. Some of them, especially some local ones can be actively counterproductive on climate related issues, especially if they support NIMBYish approaches to housing, since denser housing is an important way of reducing CO2 from car commuting. But this by and large is the direction that support needs to go in.

    The third category is charitable. There are multiple different charities which can help here. Everybody Solar https://everybodysolar.org/ [everybodysolar.org] buys solar panels for nonprofits like homeless shelters and science museums. The Solar Electric Light Fund https://www.self.or [self.org]
