    Current and future global climate impacts resulting from COVID-19
    https://www.nature.com/articles/s41558-020-0883-0

    we estimate global emission reductions for ten species during the period February to June 2020. We estimate that global NOx emissions declined by as much as 30% in April, contributing a short-term cooling since the start of the year. This cooling trend is offset by ~20% reduction in global SO2 emissions that weakens the aerosol cooling effect, causing short-term warming. As a result, we estimate that the direct effect of the pandemic-driven response will be negligible, with a cooling of around 0.01 ± 0.005 °C by 2030 compared to a baseline scenario that follows current national policies. In contrast, with an economic recovery tilted towards green stimulus and reductions in fossil fuel investments, it is possible to avoid future warming of 0.3 °C by 2050.

    Neco k tomu "vysadime bambilion stromu"

    Alexander Ač
    Sadenie stromov na organických pôdach (teda tých s vyšším obsahom uhlíka) nemá za následok celkové pohlcovanie uhlíka (CO2) z atmosféry v horizonte desaťročí (40 rokov). #SadímeStromy

    Tree planting is increasingly being proposed as a strategy to combat climate change through carbon (C) sequestration in tree biomass. However, total ecosystem C storage that includes soil organic C (SOC) must be considered to determine whether planting trees for climate change mitigation results in increased C storage. We show that planting two native tree species (Betula pubescens and Pinus sylvestris ), of widespread Eurasian distribution, onto heather (Calluna vulgaris ) moorland with podzolic and peaty podzolic soils in Scotland, did not lead to an increase in net ecosystem C stock 12 or 39 years after planting. Plots with trees had greater soil respiration and lower SOC in organic soil horizons than heather control plots. The decline in SOC cancelled out the increment in C stocks in tree biomass on decadal timescales. At all four experimental sites sampled, there was no net gain in ecosystem C stocks 12–39 years after afforestation—indeed we found a net ecosystem C loss in one of four sites with deciduous B. pubescens stands; no net gain in ecosystem C at three sites planted with B. pubescens ; and no net gain at additional stands of P. sylvestris . We hypothesize that altered mycorrhizal communities and autotrophic C inputs have led to positive ‘priming’ of soil organic matter, resulting in SOC loss, constraining the benefits of tree planting for ecosystem C sequestration. The results are of direct relevance to current policies, which promote tree planting on the assumption that this will increase net ecosystem C storage and contribute to climate change mitigation. Ecosystem‐level biogeochemistry and C fluxes must be better quantified and understood before we can be assured that large‐scale tree planting in regions with considerable pre‐existing SOC stocks will have the intended policy and climate change mitigation outcomes.

    Zajímavé vllákno o tom, proč lidé neposlouchají vědce.
    https://twitter.com/ClimateHuman/status/1291860939348701184

    Peter Kalmus is a freaked out climate scientist
    There's a huge gap between what climate scientists are willing to say privately and what we're willing to say publicly, in terms of how dire a situation we're in. Colleagues, integrity demands we close this gap.

    Scientists aren't holding back on the science in our papers. Why would we? (IPCC summaries are another matter.) But in public it's "Here are some graphs" and the language is constrained. In private over beers it's "We're fucked."

    Now I'm not a "doomer." I see a continuum of fucked-ness, and I think decades of inaction mean we're already fucked to some not-great degree, but we can prevent being even more fucked. We can always be more fucked by burning more fossil fuel, and less fucked by burning less.

    What I'm saying is that it could be helpful for a large number of scientists to step out of "scientist mode" and speak from the heart. To say "I'm human too and I find this terrifying. I'm deeply concerned that if we fail to act we'll be fucked. Catastrophically fucked."

    If you're an Earth scientist and you're scared by what you see and where the Earth system is heading, please say so, in very plain, even vulgar language, and as publicly as you can. What's happening isn't remotely OK and I think we have a duty to let everyone feel it.

    The Lost Forest Gardens of Europe
    https://www.shelterwoodforestfarm.com/blog/the-lost-forest-gardens-of-europe

    Beautiful essay about the Indigenous forest gardens of pre-agricultural Europe that have been maintained for thousands and thousands of years.

    "As we search for ways to remake the way we garden, farm, and live in a time of climate change, extreme inequality, and political disarray, looking back at the innovations of Europe’s hidden agroecological past can provide invaluable lessons on how we might collectively move forward."

    * People of the Hazel: Europe’s indigenous cultures return after the glaciers retreat, bringing their most cherished tree with them
    ( k tomu: [ TADEAS @ permakulturni zahrady, zemědělství a tak... aneb upadající kult Přemka Podlahy ] + https://www.chelseagreen.com/product/growing-hybrid-hazelnuts/ )

    * The Continent-Wide Orchard: Mesolithic people create Europe’s post-glacial ecosystems as vast forest gardens

    * A Changing Climate: millennia of drastic fluctuations in the climate lead to the creation and spread of grain-based agriculture

    * Strength in Diversity: early farmers innovate resilient crop mixes and companion planting to guard against climate change

    * Hybrid Cultures: Europe’s new creolized societies mix the best of hunter-gatherer and farmer cultures, practices, livestock, and crops to create entirely new ways to grow food

    * The Domesticated Forest Garden: farmers in the Mediterranean adapt their region’s hunter-gatherer forest gardens into diverse multi-story farms, creating resilient agricultural forests of domesticated crops that exist to this day

    * Towards a New Culture: imperialist monoculture farming systems take precedence in Europe, but the indigenous forest garden methods survive in the margins. These ancient methods are nearly forgotten, but they can provide a framework for rethinking the way we live and grow food in a changing climate

    Food System Vision Prize
    https://www.foodsystemvisionprize.org/

    The Food System Vision Prize is an invitation for organizations across the globe to develop a Vision of the regenerative and nourishing food system that they aspire to create by the year 2050.

    The Rockefeller Foundation has partnered with SecondMuse and OpenIDEO to amplify the discourse on the state and the future of the world’s many food systems. And to empower communities globally to develop actionable solutions and become protagonists in their own food future. Creating a compelling and progressive Vision for the future of our food system requires a culture of collaboration that rallies industry, policy, academia, and society to act as one. When we come together, we can deliver sustainable, nourishing diets for people and the planet by 2050.

    Preparing for the end of the world as we know it – Gesturing Towards Decolonial Futures
    https://decolonialfutures.net/portfolio/preparing-for-the-end-of-the-world-as-we-know-it/

    Within modernity-coloniality, initiatives addressing the climate crisis, like Transition Towns, Degrowth, 350 degrees, Doughnut Economics, Extinction Rebellion and Deep Adaptation, have approached differently the question of whether or not (and how) to talk about the potential, likelihood or inevitability of social and ecological collapse. This text is a contribution to conversations about this question. It presents a synthesis of the work of Indigenous scholars and activists who see the need to prepare for the incoming flood of challenges as the structures of modernity-coloniality begin to falter. It also offers a social cartography of patterns of analyses and propositions in climate change movements initiated in the West that could spark different insights and conversations about the tensions and limits of modern-colonial forms of debate, relationship building and existence. Drawing on an on-going conversation between the GTDF collective and the Deep Adaptation movement, the conclusion issues an invitation for the interruption of harmful desires and attachments to modernity-coloniality so that we can grow up and show up differently to the challenging work that we need to do together as we collectively face the gradual collapse of the house of modernity, or, in other words, the end of the world as we know it.

    ...

    In our collective, we have mapped four denials that severely restrict the capacity of those of us socialized within modernity-coloniality to sense, relate and imagine otherwise:

    * the denial of systemic, historical and ongoing violence and of complicity in harm (the fact that our comforts, securities and enjoyments are subsidized by expropriation and exploitation somewhere else);

    * the denial of the limits of the planet and of the unsustainability of modernity-coloniality (the fact that the finite earth-metabolism cannot sustain exponential growth, consumption, extraction, exploitation and expropriation indefinitely);

    * the denial of entanglement (our insistence in seeing ourselves as separate from each other and the land, rather than “entangled” within a living wider metabolism that is bio-intelligent); and,

    * the denial of the magnitude and the complexity of the problems we need to face together (the tendency to look for simplistic solutions that make us feel and look good and that may address symptoms, but not the root causes of our collective complex predicament)

    ...

    We therefore ask: What will it take for us to finally confront the depth and magnitude of the problems we face? How might we sit with our complicity in these problems, and interrupt our continued investments in the system that created those problems in the first place? What kind of intellectual, affective, and relational capacities and dispositions do we need to develop in order to hold space for the emergence of alternatives that are viable, but currently unfathomable? How can we learn to grow up, and show up differently – with humility, compassion, generosity, patience, and joy – to do the work that needs to be done, rather than what we want to do based on our projections, idealizations, and presumed entitlements and exceptionalisms? If genuinely original solutions cannot come from the dominant cultural paradigms that created the problems we face, what forms of education can interrupt these paradigms and support us to sense, relate and imagine otherwise? As Cree scholar Dwayne Donald points out: this is not an informational problem, but one rooted in a harmful habit of being, with both conscious and unconscious dimensions.
