Ok, this global warming shit is getting out of hand...
Dr Rob Davies of Utah State gave an incredible presentation at Montana State University this past week, talking about the scale of the climate crisis and the scale of the response we need to mitigate it.
He stressed our risk management is not aggressive - keeping global warming to 1.5-2C only gives us a 66% chance of avoiding tipping points to runaway climate disaster. "That's playing Russian Roulette with 2 bullets in a 6 shooter. None of us would pull the trigger with those odds."
Yet we aren't even doing enough to keep warming that low. We are currently on a path to 13degrees F of warming in North America by 2100. That would be catastrophic.
