<b>How the Rich REALLY Cause Climate Change</b><br>
Sep 23, 2022 <br>
In this Our Changing Climate climate change video essay, I look at
how the rich really cause climate change. Specifically, I look at
how the focus on the richest people in the world's consumption
habits (i.e. our obsession with Taylor Swift's jet emissions)
distracts us from how they make their money in the first place. It
is through their control and power over production that the rich
drive emissions through the roof in pursuit of profits. In order to
understand the climate crisis, in order to understand what's driving
the climate crisis, we need to look beyond individual footprints and
toward the point of production. It is here where the rampant
emissions stem from. At the point of production, a handful of
individuals make choices that have dire ramifications for billions
and dark consequences for the environment.<br>

<b>Carbon neutral concrete. Can new technologies get us there

2,306 views Oct 2, 2022 Concrete accounts for 8% of global CO2
emissions and it's usage is set to skyrocket in the coming decades
as the world's population grows and moves towards more urban
environments. So removing carbon from the process is a crucial part
of the climate mitigation challenge. And now, several start-up
companies have stepped up to meet that challenge.<br>

it into a manageable form it either has to be highly compressed or
cryogenically chilled, both of which are expensive and energy hungry
processes. Now two separate and completely unconnected teams claim
to have worked out how to store hydrogen in powder form. So is this
a genuine breakthrough or yet more wishful thinking?<br>

<i>[ So does Global Warming -- explained in audio ]</i><br>
<b>Climate change makes storms like Ian more common</b><br>
September 29, 2022<br>
Heat is the fuel that makes hurricanes big, powerful and rainy. As
humans burn fossil fuels and release huge amounts of carbon dioxide
and other greenhouse gasses, the amount of heat trapped on Earth
rises steadily. The air gets hotter, and the ocean water gets
hotter. When a baby hurricane forms in the Atlantic, all that heat
is available to help the storm grow.<br>
<br>
That's what happened to Ian. When the storm first formed, it was
relatively weak. But as it moved over very hot water in the
Caribbean and Gulf of Mexico, it grew very quickly...<br>
- -<br>
<b>Climate change makes catastrophic flooding from hurricanes more
likely</b><br>
A warmer planet also drives more flooding from hurricanes and
tropical storms. A warmer atmosphere can hold more moisture. When a
storm gains power and gets very large, like Ian, it holds a gigantic
amount of water vapor, which falls as rain — often hundreds or even
thousands of miles from where the storm initially hits land.<br>
<br>
Research has already shown that past storms, such as Hurricane
Harvey, dropped more rain because of climate change.<br>
<br>
And the bigger the storm, the bigger the storm surge. Ian pushed a
wall of water ashore in Florida. And sea level rise means that ocean
water is closer to buildings and roads than it used to be. Many
Florida cities experience ocean flooding even on sunny days.<br>
<br>
Together, sea level rise and powerful, rainy storms like Ian
conspire to cause catastrophic flooding across huge areas of the
U.S. when a hurricane hits land.<br>

<i>[ More history of global warming reporting ]</i><br>
<b>The climate crisis? We’ve been investigating it for more than 100
years</b><br>
Climate warnings have been around for decades. Guardian reporting on
the issue dates back as far as 1890<br>

<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://img.newspapers.com/img/img?clippingId=109994491&width=700&height=1492&ts=1607535806">https://img.newspapers.com/img/img?clippingId=109994491&width=700&height=1492&ts=1607535806</a><br>
The standard terminology has been around longer than you might
think. The first mention of the “greenhouse effect” came in 1935,
when the Observer published a short piece under the heading ‘Three
year period of warmth’. Two decades later, the phrase “global
warming” was first deployed in a 1957 Guardian article titled
“Possible melting of polar ice-caps,” though in subsequent years,
the chief concern was of the weather turning colder, not warmer.<br>
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://img.newspapers.com/img/img?clippingId=109640853&width=700&height=724&ts=1607535806">https://img.newspapers.com/img/img?clippingId=109640853&width=700&height=724&ts=1607535806</a><br>
By the early 1980s, the idea that human-made greenh ouse gas
emissions were creating a heat-trapping effect in the atmosphere,
slowly warming the planet, was still an embryonic scientific theory.
But the Guardian was starting to publish regular explorations of the
science and the stakes.<br>

<i>[ quite distressing to consider the global certainty of
widespread collapse ]</i><br>
<b>Professor Jem Bendell Strategist & educator on social change,
focused on Deep Adaptation to societal breakdown</b><br>
Clips from the Deep Adaptation paper<br>
<blockquote><b>Abstract</b><br>
The purpose of this conceptual paper is to provide readers with an
opportunity to reassess<br>
their work and life in the face of what I believe to be an
inevitable near-term societal collapse<br>
due to climate change.<br>
<br>
The approach of the paper is to analyse recent studies on climate
change and its implications<br>
for our ecosystems, economies and societies, as provided by
academic journals and<br>
publications direct from research institutes.<br>
<br>
That synthesis leads to my conclusion there will be a near-term
collapse in society with serious<br>
ramifications for the lives of readers. The paper does not prove
the inevitability of such<br>
collapse, which would involve further discussion of social,
economic, political and cultural<br>
factors, but it proves that such a topic is of urgent importance.
The paper reviews some of the<br>
reasons why collapse-denial may exist, in particular, in the
professions of sustainability<br>
research and practice, therefore leading to these arguments having
been absent from these<br>
fields until now.<br>
<br>
The paper offers a new meta-framing of the implications for
research, organisational practice,<br>
personal development and public policy, called the Deep Adaptation
Agenda. Its key aspects<br>
of resilience, relinquishment, restoration and reconciliation are
explained. This agenda does<br>
not seek to build on existing scholarship on “climate adaptation”
as it is premised on the view <br>
that societal collapse is now likely, inevitable or already
unfolding.<br>
<br>
The author believes this is one of the first papers in the
sustainability management field to<br>
conclude that climate-induced near-term societal collapse should
now be a central concern for<br>
everyone, and therefore to invite scholars to explore the
implications. <br>
- -<br>
<b>Conclusions</b><br>
Since records began in 1850, seventeen of the eighteen hottest
years have occurred since<br>
2000. Important steps on climate mitigation and adaptation have
been taken over the past<br>
decade. However, these steps could now be regarded as equivalent
to walking up a landslide.<br>
If the landslide had not already begun, then quicker and bigger
steps would get us to the top<br>
of where we want to be. Sadly, the latest climate data, emissions
data and data on the spread<br>
of carbon-intensive lifestyles show that the landslide has already
begun. As the point of no<br>
return can’t be fully known until after the event, ambitious work
on reducing carbon<br>
emissions and extracting more from the air (naturally and
synthetically) is more critical than<br>
ever. That must involve a new front of action on methane.<br>
Disruptive impacts from climate change are now inevitable.
Geoengineering is likely to be<br>
ineffective or counter-productive. Therefore, the mainstream
climate policy community now <br>
recognises the need to work much more on adaptation to the effects
of climate change. That<br>
must now rapidly permeate the broader field of people engaged in
sustainable development<br>
as practitioners, researchers and educators. In assessing how our
approaches could evolve, we<br>
need to appreciate what kind of adaptation is possible. Recent
research suggests that human<br>
societies will experience disruptions to their basic functioning
within less than ten years due to<br>
climate stress. Such disruptions include increased levels of
malnutrition, starvation, disease,<br>
civil conflict and war – and will not avoid affluent nations. This
situation makes redundant the<br>
reformist approach to sustainable development and related fields
of corporate sustainability<br>
that has underpinned the approach of many professionals (Bendell
et al, 2017). Instead, a new<br>
approach which explores how to reduce harm and not make matters
worse is important to<br>
develop. In support of that challenging, and ultimately personal
process, understanding a deep<br>
adaptation agenda may be useful.<br>
