  • Courts Against Positive Measures on Climate Change?

    Americas - USA

    "Within days, the conservative majority on the Supreme Court is expected to hand down a decision that could severely limit the federal government’s authority to reduce carbon dioxide from power plants — pollution that is dangerously heating the planet."

    • Ah, so we have the constitutional right to destroy the planet.

        Greenhouse Gases to Increase

        Here's the decision mentioned in post # 481 above

        "Supreme Court Strips Federal Government of Crucial Tool to Control Pollution

        President Biden vowed to press forward with his climate agenda after a decision that “risks damaging our nation’s ability to keep our air clean.” "

          No. Bureaucrats don't get to make decisions that are not backed by laws that give them that authority. The tyrants are not pleased.

            It would seem now that environmental protection is some crazy idea from the radical radical left.

            • CT Anthropogenic Negative Climate Change Thread

              Week # 27 (22/6/29 – 22/7/5)

              Weekly Stats:

              ........................................................2022 Average......................................................................... 2022 Average

              .............................Last Week's.....Views/Day.......................................Last Week's.............Responses/Day.

              ......25...........................9...................46............................1..............................1/3 ..........................2

              Stats Analysis

              Activity jumped in the thread last week ....... there was over 1 response posted per day...... activity is proportionate to the number of responses posted.

              It is also expected that the current weekly period stats will remain substantially behind the 2022 Average for a long time. There were many more posts per week in the beginning than now, as everyone had their say. So, as the number of viewers decreases, and then stabilizes, the yearly average comes down only very slowly, given the high initial activity.

              There is lots of climate change information out there. I am shooting to post a new response every 2nd day, but am sometimes falling short on this, depending on the amount of time I have to be on-line. But I only run across a small percentage of the information available. I encourage other CT'ers to also post responses here, when they see climate change posts of interest elsewhere.

              The Pressing Climate Change Issue

              The core issue: Building a sense of urgency on this issue in society. We must realize that we cannot kick it down the road any longer.

              The public is aware of the climate change issue.......

              BUT..... climate activists must find strategies to “AWAKEN” the public to the “URGENCY”.

              Nature's Tipping point is estimated to be, on current trajectory, only 9 years away (Around Jan. 1, 2031). Capping the temperature rise at only 1.5 degrees Celsius is now impossible (UN Climate Change Panel's most recent report). UNCCP noted that current government deadlines were totally insufficient to solve the problem. CO 2 must be capped by 2025! And for the first time, CO 2 “removal” has now become a necessary part of the solution, along with eliminating spewing of greenhouse gases into our atmosphere.

              Our window of opportunity is fast closing.

              The Large Picture Solutions

              Can we come up with at least one or two viable suggestions of impressive, radical things that might wake up the public, that we could then put out there to other concerned client activists?

                    Global energy-related carbon dioxide emissions rose by 6% in 2021 to 36.3 billion tonnes, their highest ever level, as the world economy rebounded strongly from the Covid-19 crisis and relied heavily on coal to power that growth, according to new IEA analysis released today."

                        One Consequence: Weather Extremes

                        "It is only early July, but once again the heat has come in early. Already this year some nations in Europe and North Africa have seen the highest June temperatures on record. In the US, 100 million Americans were urged to “stay indoors” last month due to the extreme heat and 65 million are experiencing “severe to exceptional” drought; the nation’s two largest reservoirs, Lake Mead and Lake Powell, are at their lowest ever levels.

                        None of this feels normal. At the very least it is unsettling; for those experiencing the worst effects, it is harrowingly grim. Yet such heat is only becoming more predictable as climate change increases its grip. The past seven years have been the hottest since records began. In India and Pakistan, this year’s early extreme heat was made 30 times more likely because of humanity’s influence on the global climate, scientists agree."

                              Moderate activity continued apace in the thread last week ....... this was because response posting also continued at the same pace (On average, one response per day)..... activity is clearly proportionate to the number of responses posted over the course of the week. It would appear that this thread does have 25-30 regular CT'ers who check in whenever there is a new response.

                              Note: It is expected that the current weekly period stats will remain substantially behind the 2022 Average for a long time. There were many more posts per week in the beginning than now, as everyone had their say. So, as the number of viewers decreases, and then stabilizes, the yearly average comes down only very slowly, given the high initial activity.

                              This thread encourages CT'ers to re-post responses here when they see climate change posts of interest elsewhere. Help bring other CT'ers right up-to-date.

                              I personally, as the thread originator, am shooting to post a new response at least every 2nd day, but am sometimes even falling short on this, depending on the amount of time I have to be on-line, which is limited.
