@johnzaozirny Ageee, but I'll throw Blade Runner in the mix.
Hated the period when all one could rent was the director's cut. One good thing streaming did, bringing back the original.
@ponderer Good luck, but I never every answer quizzes or do these "provide info" gags. What's the point? With AI coming and deep fakes, there are many ways to use this - like they call your mom with your voice and know enough to get her to send them money. Think on it. Big data is 4ever.
@eutics41140@EliotJacobson Now you want to get granular - bait and switch.
I could give a rat's ass about China.
The country with the cheapest energy wins manufacturing. Energy affect the cost of both production and materials. We win green energy, and the world will have no choice but to follow.

For the first time in recorded history, the 365-day running mean reached the Paris limit of 1.50°C in ERA5 data.
The graph below shows the 365-day running mean, noting a few benchmarks we've hit along the way.

@JeffersonCraigg@EliotJacobson Very good question. But the likely answer is quite a lot.
Which only proves that SRM will work.
I predicted a couple of years ago that we'd be doing it in 5 to 10 years. I stand by that prediction, for the simple reason that we have no other choice.
@rrrocean@richardabetts@WWAttribution You gotta quit using the word "drought"
That water, as a whole, isn't coming back.
It's not a drought, it's a new normal. Hopefully the floor of the new normal, but even that is not guaranteed.
Words matter - a lot.
This, folks, is why we already have no choice, but to implement multiple forms of solar reflection to tamp down heat for about a century.
We need 30 years to get off of fossil fuels, and then we need at least another 100 to get carbon levels back under 350ppm.
SRM or bust!
Here is a polynomial curve fit for the monthly surface temperature anomaly scatter plot from 1940 to 2023. Each dot shows one month's anomaly.
Using this curve to forecast forward 36 months shows us breaking 1.5°C for good in 2025 and 1.6°C in 2026/27.
Accelerated warming.
30.7°C in southern Spain today.
The highest temperature ever recorded in Europe in January.
That’s around the average maximum temperature here in July & August.
@TrumpAF2024 You left out the part where professionally trained soldiers with unlimited ammo and supply line logistics are firing back.
But keep fantasizing.
Got a notion you never served a day.
New data from the U.S. Bureau of Labor:
The number of people with a disability dramatically increased & hit a new record of 34 million in June 2023.
#LongCovid is a mass disabling event.
@TXsharon@JackWolf57@Janefonda That's okay. You are putting up the good fight on Methane and that's very important at the moment.
It's a part of the puzzle - just know there will be things you find unpalatable required to get us out of this mess.
That's just where we are. PS - degreed +20 years Env. Eng.
@LeonSimons8 That inch or two of sea level rise they weren't so worried about -- well, allow us to introduce you.
Maybe this will finally be the year that the rich assholes who think they are insulated from a planet in early death throes finally wake the F up!
