Tastes Like Chicken

[Intro]
Now that Man has cooked man,
Can you tell me then…
Does it taste like chicken?

[Verse 1]
What’s the scoop
On chicken soup?
Does the plan
Include man?

[Bridge]
Watching civilization bake
While humans are at ‘steak’

[Chorus]
Now that Man has cooked man,
Can you tell me then…
Does it taste like chicken?
(Once again)
Does it taste like chicken?

[Verse 2]
Are they serving
The ‘less deserving’?
What is the quality
Of your humanity?

[Bridge]
Watching civilization bake
While humans are at ‘steak’

[Chorus]
Now that Man has cooked man,
Can you tell me then…
Does it taste like chicken?
(Once again)
Does it taste like chicken?

[Bridge]
Pavement
125 degrees (Fahrenheit)
Movement
Man flees (Just ain’t right)
Having some sole food
And, being rude

[Chorus]
Now that Man has cooked man,
Can you tell me then…
Does it taste like chicken?
(Once again)
Does it taste like chicken?

[Outro]
Watching civilization bake
While humans are at ‘steak’

A SCIENCE NOTE

Climate breakdown, the most alarming development, occurs when feedback loops are triggered, and tipping points are crossed. This leads to the extinction of plants, the disappearance of carbon sinks, and an exponential acceleration of Earth’s temperature. The consequences are dire, with the potential disappearance of vital resources like food, fresh water, and breathable air, likely followed by catastrophic impacts on human survival.

In October 2023, the European Space Agency’s Copernicus Climate Change Service reported that the average temperature for September hit 16.38 degrees Celsius, surpassing the previous record set in September 2020 by 0.5 degrees Celsius. Copernicus Director Carlo Buontempo described it as “mind-blowing” and emphasized the devastating impacts on people and ecosystems, citing destruction of assets, infrastructure, and harvests. “What we are observing, are not only new extremes but the persistence of these record-breaking conditions, and the impacts these have on both people and planet, are a clear consequence of the warming of the climate system,” Director Buontempo said.

By January 2024, the Earth had experienced an alarming annual average temperature increase of over 1.5 degrees Celsius. This temperature rise continued in February 2024, with a monthly average reaching 1.77 degrees above pre-industrial levels, occurring centuries earlier than previously predicted. The urgency to address and combat climate change has never been more critical.

In a significant update from May 2024, scientists determined through tree ring analysis that the average temperature increase in 2023 reached 2.07 degrees Celsius, further underscoring the escalating pace of climate change and its profound impact on global ecosystems.

June 6, 2024 — Carbon dioxide is accumulating in the atmosphere faster than ever — accelerating on a steep rise to levels far above any experienced during human existence, scientists from NOAA and the Scripps Institution of Oceanography at the University of California San Diego announced today. “Over the past year, we’ve experienced the hottest year on record, the hottest ocean temperatures on record and a seemingly endless string of heat waves, droughts, floods, wildfires and storms,” said NOAA Administrator Rick Spinrad, Ph.D. “Now we are finding that atmospheric CO2 levels are increasing faster than ever. We must recognize that these are clear signals of the damage carbon dioxide pollution is doing to the climate system, and take rapid action to cut fossil fuel use as quickly as we can.”
