Greenland's Qaanaaq Ice Cap has lost enough ice to produce a layer of water about 8 meters deep
The more ice that disappears the less chance Earth will remain habitable

You are looking at the strongest El Niño event on record.
On Sept. 19, the key monitoring region in the Pacific Ocean reached 3.05°C above average, breaking the record from November 2015.
There are still three months of strengthening to go.
@lwoodhouse also it’s funny as hell that Bernie, Obama, and Ezra Klein, which span the left to middle left, are all recently loudly advocating for AI restraint, and still the brain dead twitter discourse about The Left continues to roll on
get offline and talk to ppl and you’ll see
@lwoodhouse The Left as far as i can see on twitter is a convenient boogie man for Very Online Ppl to take out their imagined frustrations.
it’s just not like this in the real world
@rustneversleepz@kevinroose also you’re missing the forest through the trees: EXXON is FORECASTING this.
it’d be like a drug maker forecasting the amount of cancer their product is going to bring to the population, and we’re all like whatever
@rustneversleepz@kevinroose you guys love moving the goalposts; you love pretending to have sacred knowledge over fairly commonsense science.
“Joshi, Exxon’s director of economics and energy…(said continued trajectory of emissions) implied global temps…between 2.5 and 3C”
like just take the L
@rustneversleepz@kevinroose just use google dude you have the internet at your fingertips
i don’t wanna play the dumb guy game but for anyone else reading

@RonfortMartin@tristanharris lol this is the greatest boing-fwip, just absolute reversal of the true cognitive virus MIT researches described a couple weeks back
@kevinroose meanwhile, exxon (!) says 3 degrees celsius by 2050.
there’s real current harms of this tech and imaginary future harms. but it’s all subservient to the mass suffering and death coming from global warming.
if you can’t see that, i think i know who’s head is in the sand
