A SCIENCE NOTE
The current state of climate change is deeply concerning, as multiple indicators show we are crossing critical tipping points. These tipping points represent thresholds beyond which certain parts of the Earth’s climate system undergo irreversible change. Some examples include the melting of ice sheets in Greenland and Antarctica, the collapse of the Amazon rainforest into a savannah, and the thawing of permafrost, which would release vast amounts of greenhouse gases, accelerating warming.

Compounding this are feedback loops where warming accelerates the processes that generate even more warming, such as the release of methane from thawing permafrost or reduced carbon absorption by oceans and forests. These interconnected and self-reinforcing processes make it increasingly difficult to reverse climate breakdown. Scientists are urging immediate action to mitigate these risks by promoting positive social and technological tipping points, such as shifts to renewable energy and sustainable practices.

In short, the Earth is on a dangerous trajectory, and time to act is running out. The consequences of inaction could become irreversible within a few decades, highlighting the urgent need for global coordination and decisive climate action.

All’s Quiet on the Western Front

[Verse 1]
All’s quiet on the western front,
(But the silence screams inside)
Battles we thought were won…
(Still haunt us through the night)

[Bridge]
To be blunt
(What resides inside)
Are we done
(Have we gained insight)

[Chorus]
All’s quiet on the western front
(We don’t and we won’t)
All’s quiet on the western front
(Affront our manhunt)

[Verse 2]
Holding onto a fragile peace,
While the storms brew below,
All’s quiet on the western front,
But the cracks begin to show.

[Bridge]
Can we cease
Do we know
Confront
The battle front

[Chorus]
All’s quiet on the western front
(We don’t and we won’t)
All’s quiet on the western front
(Affront our manhunt)

[Outro]
While the storms brew below…
(The cracks begin to show)
Oh, oh, oh

A SCIENCE NOTE
A September 2024 report published in the journal Science concluded that a 9-day seismic event in September 2023 was triggered by the collapse of a Greenland glacier and mountain, resulting in a 200-meter tsunami. The initial shockwaves traveled from the Arctic to Antarctica within an hour. Trapped in a fjord, the tsunami generated recurring 90-second seismic events as the wave repeatedly bounced between the fjord’s walls.

Tipped Tipping Points, Feedback Loops, and the Domino Effect
Tipping points are Critical Milestones that directly impact the rate of acceleration in climate change by multiplying the number and intensity of feedback loops. Identifying and understanding these tipping points is crucial for climate science and policymaking. Crossing multiple tipping points has led to the domino effect, resulting in a much more rapid and severe climate change than currently projected.

a glass toward the edge of a table and eventually it will fall off on its own. No matter how slowly or meticulously you push… no matter how you weight or fill the glass, it will reach a tipping point and fall off before being pushed completely off the table. No matter whether you believe the glass is half-empty or half-full, when the tipping point is reached it will plummet out-of-control to its end. This is science not fate, faith, nor belief. Human induced climate change has resulted in environmental tipping points being breached.

Tipping points, when crossed, trigger self-sustaining feedback loops that are no longer dependent on human activity. Similar to when a domino topples over hitting two more dominoes that in turn fall hitting more dominoes. Thus, the name The Domino Effect. It can also be visualized as The Snowball Effect. A tipping point is like a snowball rolling down a hill growing in mass and velocity (momentum). When a tipping point is crossed, it results in cumulative and reinforced global warming.

* Our climate model uses chaos theory in an attempt to adequately account for humans and forecasts a global average temperature increase of 9 degrees Celsius above pre-industrial levels. Everybody has the responsibility not to pollute. There are plenty of things you can do to help save the planet. Stop using fossil fuels. Consume less. Love more. Here is a list of additional actions you can take.

A SCIENCE NOTE
Our climate model employs chaos theory to assess human impacts. Global warming is driven by increased thermal energy within the climate system, a complex web of interconnected subsystems. Previous models often failed to account for “social-ecological systems,” where human activity significantly alters climate dynamics.

The U.S. is among the least prepared nations, with the highest percentage of climate deniers. Political inaction exacerbates the problem, particularly as the Republican Party often dismisses climate change as a fabricated issue while advocating for increased fossil fuel production. Ironically, human industrial activities are a primary cause of climate change. Despite some progress under President Biden, the U.S. remains the world’s largest producer of oil and gas, with both major political parties favoring emergency disaster funding over proactive climate prevention measures.

In 2023, the U.S. experienced 28 major weather and climate-related disasters, each costing over a billion dollars. These events included hurricanes, wildfires, severe storms, and flooding, some causing economic damages of hundreds of billions of dollars. Compounding these challenges, in June 2024, the Supreme Court significantly curtailed the Environmental Protection Agency’s authority, limiting its ability to regulate emissions and enforce environmental standards — a severe blow to decades of progress.

The government’s actions reveal a troubling mix of ignorance and indifference, turning what were once “worst-case” climate predictions into our current “best-case” scenarios. Updated climate models, now incorporating social-ecological factors, project that global temperatures could rise by as much as 9°C within this century — a drastic increase compared to previous estimates of a 4°C rise over the next millennium. Such extreme warming could push the planet toward a critical “wet-bulb” temperature threshold, where heat and humidity exceed the human body’s capacity to cool itself, posing severe and potentially lethal health risks. The need for decisive and immediate action has never been more urgent as climate change continues to spiral beyond control.

Unfortunately, that’s the reality. The root of the problem lies with us — the people. Government officials simply reflect our choices. Until consumer demands become more socially responsible, we’ll continue to get exactly what we want — and deserve. Each person bears the responsibility to minimize pollution, discontinue the use of fossil fuels, reduce consumption, and foster a culture of love and care. Only then can we drive the collective action needed to address the climate crisis and build a sustainable future.

A SCIENCE NOTE
Climate change is affecting the oceans’ saline solution, or salinity, in complex ways due to changes in temperature, precipitation, and freshwater input from melting ice. The following are some key impacts:

1. Regional Changes in Salinity

  • Increased Salinity in Some Areas: In regions with more evaporation due to rising temperatures (such as the subtropics), ocean salinity increases. Warmer air can hold more moisture, which leads to higher evaporation rates, leaving behind saltier waters.
  • Decreased Salinity in Other Areas: Conversely, regions experiencing more precipitation or freshwater influx from melting glaciers and ice caps (such as the polar regions and coastal areas) will see a dilution of salt content, reducing salinity. This is particularly noticeable in areas like the North Atlantic, where freshwater from Greenland’s ice sheet is flowing into the ocean.

2. Disruption of Ocean Circulation

Ocean salinity is a key factor in driving thermohaline circulation, also known as the “global conveyor belt,” which helps regulate global climate by moving heat around the planet. Changes in salinity can disrupt this circulation. For example, a significant reduction in salinity in the North Atlantic could weaken or even shut down the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC), which helps transport warm water from the tropics to the North Atlantic. This could lead to drastic climate shifts, including cooling in Europe and changes in monsoon patterns.

3. Impact on Marine Ecosystems

Changes in salinity affect marine life, as many species are adapted to specific salinity ranges. Fluctuations in ocean salinity can disrupt the habitats of organisms such as fish, corals, and plankton, impacting biodiversity and food chains. In areas where salinity is increasing, some species may struggle to survive, while others may thrive in the altered conditions, leading to shifts in ecosystem dynamics.

4. Ocean Acidification

While salinity changes are a direct consequence of climate change, rising atmospheric carbon dioxide levels also lead to ocean acidification, which interacts with salinity. Acidification alters the chemical composition of seawater, affecting the ability of organisms like shellfish and corals to build their calcium carbonate structures, which can further stress marine ecosystems already dealing with salinity changes.

5. Sea Level Rise and Coastal Impacts

Freshwater from melting ice sheets and glaciers contributes to sea level rise, and when this fresh water mixes with ocean water, it dilutes the saline solution. In coastal areas, changes in salinity can affect estuarine and brackish water ecosystems, leading to the displacement of species and altering local fisheries.

In summary, climate change is causing uneven salinity shifts across the world’s oceans, which can disrupt ocean circulation, marine ecosystems, and global climate patterns. The regional nature of these changes highlights the interconnectedness of the climate system, with potential feedback loops that could further accelerate both salinity changes and broader environmental impacts.

A SCIENCE NOTE

The Age of Loss and Damage
Humans will experience greater loss and damage to life and quality of life from air pollution, decreasing supply of potable water, extreme weather events, disease, and other adverse health outcomes. The greatest short term climate change risk to human health is deadly humid heat (wet-bulb temperature). The greatest damage to the your habitat is violent rain. In September of 2024, I asked Sidd, “Are you starting to think wildfires are the most significant threat, or is violent rain still reigning at #1?” Sidd replied, “Well, I never thought I’d see Canada burn. The smoke in the eastern U.S. is currently coming from the Amazon, and Ohio is in severe drought.”

A warmer world will present widespread challenges across many aspects of food-energy-water security and economic development. Infrastructure including roads, bridges, sewer and water plants will become unsustainable. Personal property will suffer loss and damage as homeowners’ insurance and flood insurance become increasingly difficult to obtain. Storm surges in Florida are an example. Parts of the coastline have seen sea levels rise over 14-20 feet in the last decade. Although the storm surge was only for hours, you wouldn’t want to live there during those hours. Not to mention, the frequency of these extreme weather events is rising exponentially. Thus, our recommendation to evacuate Florida now (i.e. Managed Retreat). The billions of dollars spent to rebuild after Hurricane Ida will all be for naught. Allowing building there will needlessly endanger property and lives. Parts of the world have already seen storm surges of 40 feet. We expect most North American coastlines will see sea levels rise, if only temporarily, by 20-40 feet this century. All real estate is at risk from climate change.

The environmental changes and uncertainties associated with climate change can contribute to mental health issues, including anxiety, depression, and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Almost all survivors of climate-related disasters suffer from mental distress and experience PTSD. Of those who have not experienced climate disasters, over two-thirds of U.S. adults (68%) report having climate change anxiety.

Loss and damage litigation against oil companies and governments is set to transform global economics and become a key driving force in tackling the climate crisis.

Elevate uprising of the fall
Doesn’t make much sense at all
Can you hear
(the fear of fear)
Draw near

[Bridge]
[Instrumental, Guitar Solo, Organ, Bass, Drum Fills]
All fall down (is going ’round)
All fall down (is coming ’round)

[Breakdown]
[Instrumental]
All fall down (is going ’round)
All fall down (is coming ’round)
Round n’ round
(and round)
Coming (going)
Down

[Chorus]
Elevate uprising of the fall
Doesn’t make much sense at all
Can you hear
(the fear of fear)
Draw near

[Outro]
[Instrumental, Saxophone Solo]
All fall down (is going ’round)
All fall down (is coming ’round)

A SCIENCE NOTE
Current Status: Climate Breakdown
Climate breakdown, the most alarming phase of climate change, occurs when feedback loops are triggered and critical tipping points are crossed, leading to irreversible environmental damage. This cascade effect accelerates the extinction of plant species, the collapse of carbon sinks, and an exponential rise in global temperatures. The consequences are dire, threatening the availability of essential resources like food, fresh water, and breathable air — ultimately putting human survival at risk.

In October 2023, the European Space Agency’s Copernicus Climate Change Service reported that September’s average global temperature soared to 16.38°C, breaking the previous record set in 2020 by 0.5°C. Copernicus Director Carlo Buontempo described these findings as “mind-blowing,” highlighting the severe impacts on ecosystems and human life, including the destruction of infrastructure, agriculture, and critical natural assets. “What we are observing are not just new extremes but a sustained pattern of record-breaking conditions, clearly demonstrating the worsening climate crisis,” Buontempo stated.

By January 2024, the Earth had already experienced an alarming annual average temperature increase of over 1.5°C above pre-industrial levels. This rise continued into February, with temperatures soaring to 1.77°C above pre-industrial averages — centuries ahead of previous projections. The urgency to mitigate climate change has never been more evident.

In May 2024, a significant update revealed through tree ring analysis that the average temperature in 2023 had increased by 2.07°C, further emphasizing the rapid and dangerous acceleration of climate change and its profound impacts on ecosystems worldwide.

A report by the USDA and the U.S. Forest Service found that the risk of wildfires has been drastically underestimated. The updated model concluded that wildfires pose a high risk to one-third of all U.S. residents and buildings. “We’re more accurately reflecting climate changes that we’ve seen in the last few years,” said Kelly Pohl, associate director at the nonprofit Headwaters Economics, which released the findings with the Forest Service.

On June 6, 2024, NOAA and the Scripps Institution of Oceanography announced that carbon dioxide levels are now accumulating in the atmosphere at an unprecedented rate. “Over the past year, we’ve seen record-breaking heat, ocean temperatures, and a relentless onslaught of extreme weather events, from heatwaves to wildfires,” stated NOAA Administrator Rick Spinrad, Ph.D. “Now, atmospheric CO2 levels are climbing faster than at any point in human history. These are clear warnings of the catastrophic impact of carbon pollution, and immediate, drastic cuts to fossil fuel use are essential.”

In July 2024, the Copernicus Climate Change Service confirmed that Earth had experienced its hottest day ever recorded, breaking the record set just a year earlier in July 2023. ‘The most striking aspect is the persistent and increasing gap between the temperatures since July 2023 and all prior years,’ noted Copernicus scientists. This pattern indicates that the rapid acceleration of climate change is no longer an anomaly but has become the new, dangerous norm. The need for immediate global action to curb emissions and protect future generations is more urgent than ever.

A September 2024 report published in the journal Science concluded that a 9-day seismic event in September 2023 was triggered by the collapse of a Greenland glacier and mountain, resulting in a 200-meter tsunami. The initial shockwaves traveled from the Arctic to Antarctica within an hour. Trapped in a fjord, the tsunami generated recurring 90-second seismic events as the wave repeatedly bounced between the fjord’s walls.

* Our climate model employs chaos theory to comprehensively consider human impacts and projects a potential global average temperature increase of 9℃ above pre-industrial levels.
