[One important event]
*With the world on the line, scientists outline the paths to survival 
<https://grist.org/article/with-the-world-on-the-line-scientists-outline-the-paths-to-survival/>*
By Eric Holthaus - Oct 4, 2018
This week, scientists and representatives from every country on Earth 
are gathering in South Korea to put the finishing touches on a report 
that, if followed, would change the course of history.
The report is a roadmap for possible ways to keep climate change to 1.5 
degrees C above pre-industrial levels. Anything beyond that amount of 
warming, and the planet starts to really go haywire. So the 
Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change -- a U.N.-sponsored, Nobel 
Peace Prize-winning 
<https://www.nobelprize.org/prizes/peace/2007/summary/>assemblage of 
scientists -- wants to show how we can avoid that. To be clear, hitting 
that goal would require a radical rethink in almost every aspect of 
society. But the report finds that not meeting the goal would upend life 
as we know it, too.
"This will be one of the most important meetings in the IPCC's history," 
said Hoesung Lee, the group's chair, inhis opening address 
<http://www.ipcc.ch/pdf/session48/180930_Chair_opening_P48.pdf>on Monday.
The report will be released on October 8. Fromleaked drafts 
<http://www.climatechangenews.com/2018/06/27/new-leaked-draft-of-un-1-5c-climate-report-in-full-and-annotated/>, 
we knowthe basics of scientists' findings 
<https://phys.org/news/2018-10-mission-impossible-climate-key.html>: 
World greenhouse gas emissions must peak by 2020 -- just 15 months from 
now. The scientists also show the difference in impacts between 1.5 and 
2 degrees would not beminor 
<https://www.bbc.com/news/science-environment-45678338>-- it could be 
make-or-break for the West Antarctic Ice Sheet, for example, which would 
flood every coastal city on Earth should it collapse.
"The decisions we make now about whether we let 1.5 or 2 degrees or more 
happen will change the world enormously," said Heleen de Coninck, a 
Dutch climate scientist and one of the report's lead authors, inan 
interview with the BBC 
<https://www.bbc.com/news/science-environment-45720740>. "The lives of 
people will never be the same again either way, but we can influence 
which future we end up with."
The report has been in the works since the 2015 Paris climate agreement. 
Three years ago, during the climate talks, leaders of a few dozen small 
island nations andother highly vulnerable nations 
<https://thecvf.org/historic-1-5c-agreement-marks-new-era-of-climate-justice/>, 
like Ethiopia, Bangladesh, and Vietnam, demanded the bolder 1.5 degrees 
C temperature target be included in the first-ever global climate pact. 
The group represents 1 billion people, and for some of the involved 
countries, like the Marshall Islands,their entire existence is at stake 
<http://www.climatenetwork.org/event/climate-vulnerable-forum-virtual-summit>.
At the time, the lead negotiator from that tiny Pacific island 
nationused the word 
<http://www.climatechangenews.com/2015/10/05/climate-change-migration-is-genocide-says-marshall-islands-minister/>"genocide" 
to describe the inevitable process of forced abandonment of his country 
due to sea-level rise, should global temperature breach the 1.5 degree 
target.
Even taking into account the policies and pledges enacted globally since 
the Paris Agreement,the world is on course 
<https://climateactiontracker.org/global/temperatures/>to warm between 
2.6 to 3.2 degrees C by the end of the century, according to independent 
analysis by Climate Action Tracker.
According toa U.N. preview of the report 
<https://library.wmo.int/doc_num.php?explnum_id=5188>, meeting the 1.5 
goal would "require very fast changes in electricity production, 
transport, construction, agriculture and industry" worldwide, in a 
globally coordinated effort to bring about a zero-carbon economy as 
quickly as possible. It would also very likely require 
eventuallyremoving huge amounts of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere 
<https://twitter.com/hausfath/status/1047610652586467328>using 
technology that is not currently available at the scale that would be 
necessary. And there's no time to waste: "The longer CO2 is emitted at 
today's rate, the faster this decarbonization will need to be."
The worldhas already warmed by about 1.1 degrees C 
<https://twitter.com/ed_hawkins/status/1047067560745811970>, and the 
implications of that are increasingly obvious. In just the three years 
since the Paris Agreement was signed, we've seenthousand-year rainstorms 
by the dozens <http://www.nws.noaa.gov/oh/hdsc/aep_storm_analysis/>, the 
most destructive hurricane season in U.S. history, disastrous fireson 
almost every continent 
<https://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/fire-fire-everywhere-the-2018-global-wildfire-season-is-already-disastrous_us_5b5a1271e4b0de86f494ed28>, 
and an unprecedented coral bleaching episode that affected70 percent of 
the world's reefs 
<https://coralreefwatch.noaa.gov/satellite/analyses_guidance/global_coral_bleaching_2014-17_status.php>.
In this age of rapid warming, the IPCC report is inherently political -- 
there are obvious winners and losers if the world fails to meet the 
1.5-degree goal. If the world's governments are to take the implications 
of IPCC's findings seriously, it would be nothing less than 
revolutionary -- a radical restructuring of human society on our planet.
Right now, scientists are trying to find the precise words to describe 
an impending catastrophe and the utterly heroic efforts it would take to 
avert it.
"We're talking about the kind of crisis that forces us to rethink 
everything we've known so far on how to build a secure future," 
Greenpeace'sKaisa Kosonen told AFP 
<https://phys.org/news/2018-10-mission-impossible-climate-key.html>in 
response to a draft of the report. "We have to try to make the 
impossible possible."

[who will they face on the Supreme Court?]
*Trump Administration's Desperation Grows as ​Juliana v. United States 
​Trial Approaches 
<https://static1.squarespace.com/static/571d109b04426270152febe0/t/5bb7eb26f9619aaea3023030/1538779943136/2018.10.05+Press+Release+-+DOJ+motion+to+stay+%281%29.pdf>*
Eugene, Oregon - Today, in an unprecedented move, the Trump 
administration filed another motion with
the U.S. District Court for the District of Oregon to stay discovery and 
trial in the landmark constitutional
climate lawsuit Juliana v. United States, pending review from the U.S. 
Supreme Court.

This lawsuit was filed by 21 young people in August 2015 with support 
from Our Children's Trust. The
United States government has fought the youth plaintiffs for more than 
three years to get this case
dismissed, all while knowingly perpetuating the nation's fossil fuel 
energy system and the climate crisis.
Judges at the U.S. District Court, the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals, 
and most recently, the United States
Supreme Court have repeatedly ruled in favor of the youth plaintiffs and 
their right to go to trial. Their
trial is set to begin on Monday, October 29.

During a telephonic status conference yesterday between the parties and 
U.S. Magistrate Judge Thomas
Coffin to discuss the government's intention to file the motion for 
stay, Judge Coffin said:

    "...it doesn't seem to me, looking at the landscape here, that very
    much has changed since the last
    motion to stay was filed...and the only 'change' is that the Court
    hasn't ruled on the dispositive
    motions that have been filed…I would just urge everybody to keep on
    track for trial."

The youth plaintiffs and the Court noted that the only other change in 
circumstance is that the parties have
expended significant time and resources in conducting discovery in 
preparation for trial, and are nearing
the end of conducting 50 depositions of experts and plaintiffs in about 
60 days...
- - - -
*Juliana v. United States is not about the government's failure to act 
on climate. Instead, these 21 young**
**plaintiffs between the ages of 11 and 22, assert that the U.S. 
government, through its affirmative actions**
**in creating a national energy system that causes climate change, is 
depriving them of their constitutional**
**rights to life, liberty, and property, and has failed to protect 
essential public trust resources. The case is**
**one of many related legal actions brought by youth in several states 
and countries, all supported by Our**
**Children's Trust, and all seeking science-based action by governments 
to stabilize the climate system.*..

[Looking to the courts]
*This Landmark Trial of Climate Activists Puts the Political System 
Itself on Trial 
<https://www.thenation.com/article/this-landmark-trial-of-climate-activists-puts-the-political-system-itself-on-trial/>*
In a Minnesota courtroom, the Valve Turners are using the "necessity 
defense" in their shutdown of the tar-sands pipeline.
By Wen Stephenson
Most dramatic of all, 21 youth plaintiffs are suing the federal 
government for its failure, under public-trust doctrine and the US 
Constitution, to protect a livable climate. That case, Juliana v. United 
States, has survived multiple appeals to dismiss, and this summer the 
Supreme Court allowed it to proceed. The trial date is set for October 
29 in federal court in Oregon.
Much like the youth plaintiffs' case, the arguments underpinning the 
climate-necessity defense resonate powerfully in this political 
moment--and not only as a response to our climate emergency, but equally 
and inseparably, as a response to our political emergency, the crisis of 
our democracy, which long predates Donald Trump and is, in fact, among 
the root causes of the climate crisis itself. Far from being the 
inevitable result of "human nature" (as an entire issue of The New York 
Times Magazine was recently devoted to arguing, conveniently letting the 
fossil-fuel industry and its political accomplices, including liberal 
elites, off the hook), our current predicament is in large part the 
result of deception, obstruction, and the antidemocratic rigging of our 
political and economic system by corporations and private wealth. The 
climate-necessity defense addresses these root causes head-on, offering 
an indictment of a political system in which ordinary citizens have no 
viable option but to take direct action--and inspire others to do the 
same. As we're about to see in Minnesota, the best defense may actually 
be a strong offense...
- - - -
"The necessity defense offers a powerful framing of why people do civil 
disobedience," Skaggs told me in a recent interview. "It's a powerful 
way of explaining to other people why they would take a risk like 
this--as reasonable human beings. I believe that's what we need to 
change political consciousness."
In other words, one might say, putting the question of climate necessity 
before a jury is an exercise in democracy--at a time when democracy 
itself is failing...
- - - -
And this is not an exhaustive list. "There's progress being made, some 
exciting developments," Skaggs told me. "And frankly, as the climate 
situation becomes more and more dire, the argument gets stronger and 
stronger."

That argument goes more or less as follows. While the legal criteria for 
presenting a necessity defense vary slightly from state to state, in 
Minnesota the defendants must show, first, that there is an imminent 
physical harm. Definitions of what counts as imminent may differ, but in 
pretrial briefs the defense showed that courts have taken it to mean not 
only immediate but inevitable or certain to occur. Expert witnesses on 
climate science, including Hansen and scientists from the University of 
Minnesota, are prepared to testify not only to the catastrophic global 
threat of climate change but also local environmental and public-health 
impacts in northern Minnesota that are already occurring and will only 
grow worse.

Next, the defendants need to show that the harm caused by breaking the 
law was significantly less than the harm caused by obeying it. In other 
words, they'll argue that the harm of trespassing and minor property 
damage pales in comparison to the harm of climate change caused by 
transporting and burning millions of barrels of tar-sands crude, the 
most carbon-intensive form of oil, each day.

The defense must also show that there was no viable legal alternative to 
breaking the law; that is, no alternative that one could reasonably 
expect to be effective. And then they must show a direct causal 
connection between breaking the law and preventing the harm; in other 
words, that the defendants had reason to believe that their direct 
action would be effective--not necessarily all by itself, but that it 
would effectively contribute to preventing the harm.

*Food security under changing climate 
<https://www.eurekalert.org/pub_releases/2018-10/uod-fsu100418.php>*
UD part of $3.5 million NSF-funded study to improve key crop resilience
UNIVERSITY OF DELAWARE
An interdisciplinary team of researchers from the University of 
Delaware, the Donald Danforth Plant Science Center and Stanford 
University have been awarded a four-year, $3.5 million National Science 
Foundation grant to address concerns about reduced harvests of corn and 
other cereal grasses.

The project will focus on understanding the small ribonucleic acid (RNA) 
pathways involved in anther development and crop development when plants 
are challenged by adverse environmental conditions. Small RNAs are tiny 
messengers that carry genetic information inside living cells, in this 
case anthers--the site of pollen development in plants.

According to the Environmental Protection Agency, grains such as wheat, 
corn and rice grown in the United States account for roughly 25 percent 
of all grains worldwide. Changes to climate, including the frequency and 
intensity of extreme weather, are expected to impact crop yields at a 
time when the planet's population -- and the demand for food -- is rising...
- - - -
Caplan and his collaborators will investigate the life cycle and 
functions of a class of RNAs that support anther development in grass 
flowers, which are flowers that are pollinated by wind, eliminating the 
need for eye-catching petals to attract insects. Anthers are critical in 
the reproduction of flowering plants because they are the site of pollen 
development and contain the sperm cells necessary for reproduction. In 
corn, also known as maize, anthers are located on the whispy tassels 
found at the top of the cornstalk. Prior research has demonstrated that 
anther development will often stall or fail under high temperatures, 
leaving the plants sterile or with reduced fertility, thus decreasing 
the harvest.
- - - - -
The research project will also include training of students in plant and 
computational biology via continued integration with long-running and 
successful undergraduate and high school internship programs.

[How is post-collapse possible?]
*Apocalypse? Now? How to face up to climate reality 
<https://www.culture-crisis.net/blog-denial.html>*
School of Philosophy and Art History, University of Essex
28th November 2018
Midwives of Imagination: on the other side of collapse
The real terror of the social and cultural collapse of our civilisation 
brings with it anxiety that is very hard to bear, hence the silence of 
denial around climate change. Even some climate scientists have colluded 
in a 'socially constructed silence'. Psychological defences such as 
denial and disavowal play a huge part in this socially constructed 
silence. Precedence for such social denial includes the holocaust and 
sexual abuse.

Much of the psychology of climate has focused on what can be seen as a 
hospice approach that attends to the horror and grief of what is being 
lost in the sixth great extinction on our planet and in terms of human 
culture such as traditions, rituals, languages and skills that are being 
lost, possibly forever. That the commodifying beast of neoliberal 
capitalism bears a huge responsibility for this extinction brings it 
back home to us who are complicit in it. Attempting to face into it can 
lead to depression, despair and suicide.

A necessary complement to this harrowing work is to become a midwife of 
the unknown. What is on the other side of collapse? Rather like in 
midlife when the ego takes its immanent demise literally and fears 
extinction, we need to de-literalise our fantasies of collapse. This is 
not a matter of escapist hope or positive thinking that act as another 
means of disavowal. It is a matter of freeing ourselves from the tame 
domestication of our thinking and catching the sparks of imagination.

This short talk will focus on one aspect of this midwifery - developing 
a playful, carnival attitude. David Fleming in Surviving the Future 
(2016) has pointed out that carnival has traditionally provided 
communities with a radical break from what we could call malignant 
normality - a collective catharsis of satire and feral challenge that 
fires up the imagination.

Chris Robertson has been a psychotherapist and trainer since 1978. He 
studied meditation in India, humanistic group work, child psychotherapy, 
psychosynthesis and family therapy. He co-founded Re-Vision in 1988 from 
which he is now retired. Since 2108, he is the chair of the Climate 
Psychology Alliance. He is co-editor of the anthology Transformation in

*At Season of Creation's end, know this: Climate change is here 
<https://www.ncronline.org/news/environment/eco-catholic/season-creations-end-know-climate-change-here-now>*
<https://www.ncronline.org/news/environment/eco-catholic/season-creations-end-know-climate-change-here-now>Oct 
4, 2018
by James Hug
- - - - -
As the liturgical Season of Creation for 2018 draws to a close, the 
serious need for prayer, study and widespread action in response to the 
destructive threats of climate change has never before seemed so urgent.
- - - -
This year, for the first time I can recall, scientists are warning 
explicitly that climate change is not a future danger we need to try to 
prevent. Climate change is here now and will continue to worsen. It is 
the new normal.
- - - -
Climate change is here, now, and is still worsening. Its threats to life 
as we know it are coming into clearer and more frightening view.

Is Earth trying to teach us in its own way what Jesus tried to teach his 
apostles when he told them: "I will be handed over to people who will 
kill me"?

This prediction of his Passion was central in the Gospels of both the 
third and fourth Sundays of the Season of Creation this year. Jesus 
promised to rise three days after his death. Still, the Twelve, led by 
Peter, assumed that as God's special anointed one, Jesus would be 
protected and would emerge from conflicts with the Jewish leaders and 
the Roman occupiers as victor and savior. They couldn't understand what 
he was trying to tell them, but they were afraid to ask.

Is the message from Earth to us this year a warning about its suffering 
and dying? Is it a message we don't understand and are afraid to really 
believe possible? Scientists are warning that we are already into the 
sixth great mass extinction of life on Earth, the biggest since the 
dinosaurs 66 million years ago, and the first one caused principally by 
humans. From the evidence of the previous five extinctions etched in our 
planetary archaeology, Earth's resurrection could surely take place, but 
it would most likely take hundreds of thousands, if not millions, of years.

In his encyclical "Laudato Si, on Care for Our Common Home," Pope 
Francis identified the global economy -- structured on competition that 
drives consumption and requires constant economic growth on a planet 
with limited resources -- as obviously destructive for the planet's 
ecology, including the human community. The human community must stop 
assuming that we live on a planet with limitless resources.

On Aug. 1, less than two months ago, I wrote about Earth Overshoot Day, 
highlighting the fact that the human community had consumed in just 
seven months the renewable resources that it will take the planet a full 
year to replenish. And Earth Overshoot Day is coming earlier every year. 
It is impossible for this dynamic to continue.

Those economic patterns are also the drivers of growing inequality 
around the planet that promises increasing social crises and conflict. 
When the average worker for a major U.S. corporation makes about $28,000 
a year while its CEO makes $28,000 every nine seconds, social crisis 
seems inevitable. While that is an extreme example, the competitive 
structures of the global economy are driving global inequality, leaving 
more and more people in desperate need of resources on this limited 
planet and aggravating what Pope Francis has described as one complex 
and interrelated global economic, ecological and social crisis.

It is abundantly clear: Climate change is here.

Its devastating threats are more and more apparent. It is being driven 
by some of the most basic social and economic systems by which we are 
living on Earth today. And it is perhaps progressing much more quickly 
than our analytic models have predicted.

Though the 2018 liturgical Season of Creation comes to a close Oct, 4, 
it is urgent that communities of faith around the planet carry forward 
the revelation, inspiration, growth in spiritual energies and global 
collaboration that the season has nurtured in a renewed commitment. It 
is essential that the human family reverse the dynamics driving climate 
change, ecological depletion, injustice and violent conflict as people 
struggle to survive. We must move into our immediate future deepened and 
transformed.

What might that look like? Reflecting on the Sunday liturgical texts 
from this year's Season of Creation, I might sum it up in this way:

Ongoing contemplation of the beauty and wonder of creation must continue 
to feed our appreciation, gratitude, love of and passion to take care of 
the planet on which we are blessed to live. We take care of what we come 
to appreciate, are grateful for and love.

Remembering that God did not spare Jesus from the terrible rejection, 
suffering and death that the religious leaders of his people condemned 
him to, we need to take with utmost seriousness the threats from the 
ecological and social crisis we are caught up in. In the words of Jesus, 
it is "thinking not as God does but as humans do" (Mark 8:33, the Gospel 
reading for the third Sunday of the Season of Creation 2018) to expect 
that God would somehow come in to save creation from the natural effects 
of our destructive activities.

We need to pray for ever-deepening trust that the awesome God behind and 
throughout the cosmos is accompanying us with love through all that may 
lie ahead -- as God was faithful to Jesus through his suffering and 
death -- holding before us the promise of resurrection.

Then we need to take up with renewed energy the call to be prophets to 
our time, calling everyone we can touch through word and living example 
into new ways of living together as one human family within the Earth 
community, working to evolve together the next emerging stage of the New 
Creation.

*Leadership Beyond Denial of Our Climate Tragedy 
<http://iflas.blogspot.com/2018/10/leadership-beyond-denial-of-our-climate.html>*
Transcript of a talk given at the Poetics of Leadership conference, 
University of Cumbria, Ambleside Campus, 7th September 2018, by 
Professor Jem Bendell, co-chair of the conference. Based on the 
conference paper "From Denial to Deep Adaptation: Seeking Leadership 
Amidst Climate Tragedy."

"The topic that we will explore in this session is in the ether of our 
conference. Which may reflect how the topic is increasingly in the minds 
of some people in recent years, particularly in the environmental 
movement. It doesn't feel right to me given the serious nature of the 
topic to just present a summary of my paper. We can't avoid the 
emotional impact of this topic. And shouldn't try to. Although my 
attempt to develop a "deep adaptation" concept was partly to take some 
of the sting out of things by inviting reflection within a framework, 
perhaps a life-raft for despair, I don't see there is any way to just 
jump into this as a technical or philosophical discussion.
Because it is such an important topic, connected to the most important 
questions of existence, and an emotional journey for me, I want to be 
more precise than I am usually. Therefore, I will abandon a habit of a 
few years, and actually read my talk.

What I want to do in this session is to invite you to consider simply: 
"What If?"

"What if it is too late to avert a catastrophe in our own societies 
within our lifetimes, due to the impacts of climate change, particularly 
on agriculture. What might that mean for my life and work?" ...

[Jem Bendell paper that started this conversation]
*New Paper on Deep Adaptation to Climate Chaos 
<http://iflas.blogspot.com/2018/07/new-paper-on-deep-adaptation-to-climate.html>*
July 25, 2018
Today IFLAS releases its 2nd Occasional Paper on themes of leadership 
and sustainability. "Deep Adaptation: A map for navigating the climate 
tragedy" addresses in depth some implications of the most recent climate 
measurements and science.

Sadly, the analysis leads the author to conclude that climate-induced 
collapse is now inevitable. Professor Bendell studied climate science as 
part of his degree at the University of Cambridge in the 1990s, and only 
returned to the primary studies this year after seeing the increasingly 
worrying news about current changes to our atmosphere and its impacts on 
our ecosystems at sea and on land. "For the past decades I had relied on 
the assessments and guidance from the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate 
Change - which was worrying enough" said Bendell, a full Professor of 
Sustainability Leadership. "But the measured changes in our current 
environment have outpaced even the worst predictions of the IPCC over 
the past decades. The leading climate scientists are reporting a much 
worse situation than the IPCC." The paper looks at peer reviewed 
journals and supplements that with the latest data direct from research 
institutes on climate. "The whole field of sustainable development 
research, policy and education, and sustainable business in particular, 
is based on the view that we can halt climate change and avert 
catastrophe" explains Bendell. "By returning to the science, I 
discovered that view is no longer tenable. I then explored why people 
who work in this field, whether as researcher, activists or policy 
makers, may have been ignoring this difficult truth. It is 
understandable - none of us want to suffer, none of us want to think 
years of work has been futile, and none of us want to be admonished by 
colleagues or ridiculed online."...
