*"Incremental progress isn’t going to provide us with the 
transformational shifts that we need."*

Talking to @AP, UN Climate Change Executive Secretary @simonstiell
highlighted the ambitious actions needed to get on track for halving 
emissions by 2030.

*Australian Broadcasting Debunks Latest Climate Denial "Study"*
Sep 26, 2022  Always multiple red flags when scientists with a track 
record of climate denial, who do not work in the climate field, publish 
a contrarian article in a little known journal.
The technique is then for the climate denial media machine to "stove 
pipe" the bogus "study" to the top of the media food chain.

*What Many Progressives Misunderstand About Fighting Climate Change*
Wishful thinking hampers the clean-energy revolution.
By Alec Stapp
SEPTEMBER 25, 2022
Since the 1960s, fighting for the environment has frequently meant 
fighting against corporations. To curb pollution, activists have worked 
to thwart new oil drilling, coal-fired power plants, fracking for 
natural gas, and fuel pipelines. But today, Americans face a climate 
challenge that can’t be solved by just saying no again and again.

Decarbonizing the economy will require an unprecedented amount of new 
energy investment. Fossil-fuel infrastructure built over centuries needs 
to be replaced within the next few decades by clean-energy alternatives. 
The United States will need to build hundreds of thousands of square 
miles of wind and solar farms; deploy enough battery storage to keep 
power flowing through the grid even on calm, cloudy days; and at least 
double the country’s transmission-line capacity. And the same laws that 
environmental groups leveraged in the past to block or delay fossil-fuel 
projects are now being exploited by NIMBYs in ways that, however well 
intended, will slow the country’s transition to clean energy. Windmills 
off Cape Cod, a geothermal facility in Nevada, and what could have been 
the largest solar farm in America have all been blocked by an endless 
series of environmental reviews and lawsuits...

Some forms of geoengineering, such as carbon-dioxide removal, would 
require massive reductions in cost to be viable as a climate solution. 
But the same was true of solar and wind decades ago, and the government 
was able to accelerate the learning curve in those fields by being an 
early source of demand and reducing the direct costs for consumers. Many 
progressive environmentalists feel uneasy with technologies that blunt 
the climate impact of fossil fuels rather than banish them entirely. And 
yet we need such options. Some major industries, such as aviation and 
cement and steel production, will be hard to decarbonize, and we’re 
already likely to overshoot the goal of limiting warming to 1.5 degrees 
Celsius greater than preindustrial levels. The only way to permanently 
reverse that warming will be to suck carbon directly out of the 
atmosphere. More traditional carbon capture and sequestration methods, 
designed to capture greenhouse gases as they’re generated at large 
pollution sources, are showing less promise than carbon-dioxide removal 
given that they typically leave some residual emissions, but they’re 
still certainly better than unmitigated fossil-fuel use.

*The roadmap of climate models*
Mojib Latif
Nature Computational Science volume 2

The 2021 Nobel Prize in Physics recognized the importance of climate 
modeling and its role in explaining anthropogenic effects on climate 
change and global warming. To further understand our Earth’s climates, 
computational models pose new challenges to account for various 
complexities.

*Collapse and Ecocide as Religious Failure - Dowd*
1,662 views  Sep 20, 2022  A follow-up to Rev. Michael Dowd's "Main 
Drivers of Collapse, Ecocide, and Likely NTHE" video, this 44-minute 
video makes the rather audacious claim that each of the four main 
drivers of collapse: (1) Civilization, (2) Science & Technology, (3) 
Progress & Development, and (4) Growth Economics arise from and remain 
grounded in anthropocentrism (human-centeredness), which is itself 
caused by being "G🌎D-blind and biosphere deaf". For those unfamiliar 
with such an "Eco-Theo" or "Religious Naturalism" perspective, please

/*September 27, 1988*/
September 27, 1988: In a speech to the Royal Society in London,
Margaret Thatcher addresses the environmental threats of global
warming, the ozone layer and acid rain, noting the risk of rising sea
levels to the Maldives.
