Only a quarter of the way through the new year and already Globally we have had the hottest January on record, wildfires in the Northern and Southern Hemispheres, floods, heatwaves and droughts and Cyclones further south than we can expect affecting Australia so extreme weather is our new reality.
Global average temperatures are already 1.75C above the pre-industrial average which is a reality check given that leaders are still declaring that they want to limit global temperature rises to 1.5C.
The changing Climate comes with serious implications which are manifesting and slowly unfolding now and as bad as it seems, this is just the trailer for the devastating main feature, it is no longer a future possibility that can be avoided, people are dying and having their lives destroyed now.
In 2022 Pakistan was hit by unbearable heat just shy of 50°C and drought before violently destructive flash floods displaced 33 million people in a week, only to be followed by landslides that destroyed key infrastructure.
In this era, we can expect more severe and frequent extreme events and disasters which will affect everyone regardless of where you live so Society has to change to survive the upcoming disasters because Climate change is now beyond our ability to reverse, all we can do is learn to manage it but we can't say we were not warned, I am amongst many who have been banging this drum for decades but have been mostly ignored by the Governments who could actually make the changes, now it's here and getting worse.
The further bad news is that even if emissions are reduced to zero immediately, the impacts of existing emissions are 'locked in' and we face temperatures rising to 2.7 degrees which means in your grandchildren's lifetime, climatic temperatures will be higher than anything any human would have faced over the past 11,300 since modern human civilization developed years according to The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration who analysed data from sediment cores drilled in lake bottoms and sea floors and from ice cores.
Humans tweaked the nose of Mother Nature by unbalancing her Earth but the planet ultimately will be fine, we probably won't be and quite frankly, the Earth would be better off without all those strange little humans messing things up for her.
As for people like me who are told to pipe down as we are scaring the children with all our doom and gloom, I say good, hope we do but blaming us is a classic case of shooting the messenger, the blame is squarely on the shoulders of the people who could have done something decades ago and instead did nothing, and still don't.
