#QuestPit
What if a rogue U.S. military unit fought global warming?

You can't drone strike the climate, but you can blackmail the senators, sabotage the pipelines, and assassinate the executives in the way of systemic change.

Welcome to the INVERSION LAYER.

“If warming exceeds 2C this century, mainly richer humans will be responsible for killing roughly 1 billion mainly poorer humans.”

We are on track for 2C in a decade.

Saving our children means rapidly dismantling this system fueled by obscene inequality.

The piece of shit US president says environmentalists are terrorists.

The US is the greatest threat to our children’s futures.

Washington needs urgent regime change & the world needs radical system change if we want our kids to survive what’s heading their way.

If you’re from Appalachia, you already know this color.

That orange creek under a backroad bridge. The one that looks like rust bleeding through the water.

Most people chalk it up to runoff. Clay. Just how the land looks… but grandfather told me it’s not.

A lot of that traces back to old coal seams… places where the ground was cut open and rock that had been sealed for millions of years got exposed.

That rock carries pyrite. Iron and sulfur locked together.

Once it hits air and rain, it starts a chain reaction. Forms acid. That acid pulls iron out of the surrounding stone and carries it into the water. When it meets oxygen, it drops out and coats everything that deep orange.

That color isn’t sitting on top.
It’s forming in real time.

You’ll see it across parts of Pennsylvania, West Virginia, and Ohio… in cuts along the road, in small tributaries, in creeks that don’t look like much until you slow down.

Some of those mines shut down generations ago. But water still moves through them. So the reaction never really stops.

In the worst stretches, the water turns acidic enough to strip out most fish and insects. Other places hold on at the edges… life working around it, not with it.

There are fixes now. Lime dosing to neutralize the acid. Constructed wetlands that settle the iron out.

Some streams have come back.
A lot still run like that.

It’s easy to miss if you don’t know what you’re looking at. But once you do, you start seeing it everywhere.

Not just a color.
A record of what was opened and what never fully closed.

Climate change's rising seas may threaten tens of millions more people than scientists and government planners originally thought because of mistaken research assumptions on how high coastal waters already are, a study said.

How many paper straws does this equal?

A single oil depot fire releases more pollution than millions of those choices will ever save.

The climate challenge isn’t just individual behavior. The real battle is systemic—and we still have a hell of a long way to go.

@jamiekuma @trbrtc It's called a BLEVE. An LNG tanker that explodes in that manner has ~50 times the explosive power of the atomic bomb that hit Nagasaki.

🥹⚠️From a Florida weatherman on WFLA

“This will be a trigger for some. It's not meant to be. It is simply data plotted and it shows that global temperatures are warming at an accelerating pace. I can give you a whole disertation about what's happening. I won't. I'll make it simple. It's mainly forced warming from greenhouse gas/carbon pollution emissions, and related feedbacks (clouds/ ice/forests). Natural causes may spike the football every few years due to transitions to El Nino and create a new plateau, but natural forcing always goes both ways. Greenhouse gas forcing only goes one way. That's up. Pollution increases/ reductions factor in too, but pollution is also driven by humans.”

I Was watching a PBS show last week where the permafrost is melting in the arctic causing “Swiss cheese” holes that allow long buried methane gas to escape .. thereby increasing global warming at an even faster pace

I predict a 6th mass extinction

So glad ���leadership” here in Florida banned the use of the term “climate change”….idiots run this state

Parents, what are they distracting you with today so you don’t think about what this means for your children?

[Leon Simons 🌍 @LeonSimons8]

Back in 2021, we warned of a potential Aerosol Termination Shock from rapidly reduced pollution over the oceans.

Based on @NASA satellite data, it's even worse than we feared.

It takes heat and therefore time to warm the oceans and for the regional and global climate to change

[Climate Watcher 🔥 @pmagn]

We've only got 4yrs if we're lucky 👀

UK’s Joint Intelligence Committee, on which heads of MI5 and MI6 sit, released last month a partial version of its national security assessment of global biodiversity loss.. It came with a stark warning: some ecosystems will start to collapse “by 2030 or sooner”, posing an immediate threat to national security, prosperity, food systems and public health

Scientists now fully expect global warming of 1.7-2°C and rising by 2030-39. The end of the tropical biomes and the cryosphere that protect us. Mass media silent.

scientists expect The End by the 2030s-60s: collapsing ecosystems; simultaneous and/or massive crop failures; major cities becoming uninhabitable; extinction

[Matthew Todd 🌏🔥 @MrMatthewTodd]

Don’t worry just a heavily redacted report from the security services that warns climate change may lead to nuclear war just slipped out without much fuss this week.
It’s not like we’re seeing record-breaking heat waves and flooding all over the world like scientist predicted… oh we are
