We have so, so many warnings from so many agencies, corporations & researchers that we simply can't afford to ignore them any longer.

We begin with market intelligence analysis firms.

Tridge a market intel firm operating in 40 countries, with clients including Deutsche Bank, FAO, the Singapore Food Agency, the Australian Dept of Agriculture & Water Services, Nestle & Unilever, recently issued the following stark warnings.

"Due to extreme weather conditions, the agriculture supply chain is likely to experience continuous disruptions, leading to long-term price fluctuations in agricultural products across the world."

"If this trend continues for the next few years, the global society will encounter the issue of “Survival,” unprecedented food shortage, & agflation”


...

Peer reviewed research in turn points towards a long list of rapidly escalating, converging crises for food production, all exacerbated by climate change.

One of the most off-cited changes to food systems arising from climate change involves shifting climatic zones, often cited specifically because it is incessantly & misleadingly used to argue that “We’ll be able to grow more food in northern regions!”

In fact, adaptive crop migration has already been widespread, but “Expanding agriculture into new areas is extremely environmentally damaging, decreasing carbon storage, harming water quality, reducing wildlife habitat, and biodiversity”
...
furthermore, our current climate change trajectory will lead us to a situation characterized by

“more than a third of current global food production falling into conditions in which no food is produced today – that is, out of safe climatic space.”

Emissions must fall 60% in 9 years & the IEA says zero new oil & gas projects for a hope of even ‘net’ zero. So it would be reasonable to assume laws are being passed to end exploration right? In fact, the world is on an oil & gas binge.

Deep crisis: Deep adaptation… | Polity – Blog
https://politybooks.com/deep-crisis-deep-adaptation/

https://www.wiley.com/en-cz/Deep+Adaptation%3A+Navigating+the+Realities+of+Climate+Chaos-p-9781509546855

As we begin to emerge from a dark period of history dominated by the devastating Covid pandemic, many of us are therefore taking this opportunity to reassess things we previously took for granted: What parts of society really matters? How important is stuff? Love? Life itself? How should we work? How can we respond to future challenges? It is due to this new moment of reflection and re-consideration that I don’t think there could have been a more fitting time to release Deep Adaptation: Navigating the Realities of Climate Chaos, the new book I have co-authored with the originator of the deep adaptation concept, Jem Bendell. This will be the first book on the controversial subject of Deep Adaptation, and will advance from Bendell’s 2018 article “Deep Adaptation: A Map for Navigating Climate Tragedy” which has been downloaded more than a million times.

Deep adaptation is an emerging philosophical and social movement that is concerned with how to prepare ourselves to minimise the damage of the potential (and increasingly likely) social, political, and environmental collapse the future threatens us with. As I see it, it by no means constitutes us giving up on trying preventing these calamities, but it is a reasonable and necessary philosophical and practical exercise to undergo when we are honest with ourselves about the pretty desperate situation we are in.

2021 is a critical year in the future of the human race, and one that we are now almost halfway through. If the post-Covid ‘reset’ is not green, if it does not seriously confront the challenges and take swift measures to curtail the worst of pollution, emissions, and environmental destruction, then we accelerate toward collapse. With this in mind, how do we begin to talk to each other, reorganise communities, and learn to live under the shadow of the all-too-realistic possibility of societal collapse? This is quickly becoming one of the most important questions to ask, and humanity must come up with an answer. The conversation that our book attempts to spark is one that will deal with these issues head-on.

Deep Adaptation is a growing school of thought, and the idea of adaptation is creeping steadily up the international agenda (it is a headline item at the autumn’s COP, for the first time ever). Despite this, it is still being taken nowhere near as seriously as ‘mitigation’/prevention. Why?: because once we start talking about or even doing adaptation, we can no longer deny how bad the situation is. And that is what most people are still uncomfortable doing. This failure to engage seriously with adaptation, let alone deep adaptation, risks being a form of tacit/soft climate-denial in action.

Let me be frank: It’s time to prepare for the worst. But that is because, if we don’t prepare for the worst, we could get burnt the worst. I’m not giving up on the fight to stop our society undermining its own future existence, far from it! On the contrary, when I contemplate the likelihood of collapse, and the need therefore for deep adaptation, it makes me all the more determined to try to stop collapse, even if the chances of succeeding in doing so seem slim. But: not being willing to be honest enough to contemplate it isn’t going to help us.

...

This book is systems-thinking for our time. It opens up a space for a debate that has been avoided for too long. We hope deeply that you will take up the invitation it offers.

Blow for CCS: Chevron's giant carbon capture project falling short of targets
https://www.upstreamonline.com/energy-transition/blow-for-ccs-chevrons-giant-carbon-capture-project-falling-short-of-targets/2-1-1041696

US supermajor Chevron has failed to meet its emission reduction targets at its Gorgon liquefied natural gas project in Western Australia after a troubled start to the carbon capture and storage (CCS) facility.

Chevron confirmed on Monday that it was not going to meet its promised injection rates, with the project only capturing a fraction of the carbon dioxide expected during its first five years of operation.

...

“It’s a shocking failure of one of the world’s largest engineering projects. But, given the lack of rigour and testing around the technology that was used, I cannot say it is unexpected,” chairperson of Sustainable Energy Now, WA, Ian Porter said.

“Chevron needs to face significant fines and be forced to offset the more than 6 million tonnes of unauthorised legacy carbon dioxide releases. Gorgon’s failure poses a major problem for any oil and gas company betting on CCS to meet net zero.”

Porter added that he believed oil and gas companies were being “overly optimistic” in their assumptions for the potential success of CCS in order to argue for the expansion of oil and gas extraction.

“CCS simply does not work at the scale and at the price needed to undo the damage that will be created by these projects,” he claimed.

“I sincerely hope CCS does work one day. Ultimately, we need it. But until that time, it is reckless and disingenuous for the industry to keep pretending that it can expand operations and reach net zero.”

Tracking sustainable recoveries – Sustainable Recovery Tracker – Analysis - IEA
https://www.iea.org/reports/sustainable-recovery-tracker/tracking-sustainable-recoveries

Objem emisí skleníkových plynů dosáhne v roce 2023 opět na dosavadní maximum a poté bude dál narůstat, odhaduje v nejnovější zprávě Mezinárodní agentura pro energii (IEA). Důvodem je zotavování ekonomik po koronavirové krizi a to, že státy investovaly do čisté energie pouze dvě procenta pandemické pomoci.

Loni se kvůli protiepidemickým opatřením snížila globální produkce oxidu uhličitého související s energií na 31,4 miliardy tun. Letos to však podle nejnovější studie IEA vypadá na druhý nejvyšší meziroční nárůst produkce v historii, kvůli ekonomickému zotavování. Emise vzrostou i napřesrok a v roce 2023 pak překonají dosavadní rekord z roku 2018, odhaduje agentura.

Ani tam se však podle ní nárůst nezastaví a v následujících letech bude pokračovat, což významně ohrozí snahu o uhlíkovou neutralitu v roce 2050, k níž se hlásí drtivá většina států. Prohlášení vlád z celého světa, že po pandemii bude budoucnost „čistější”, tak podle šéfa IEA Fatiha Birola zůstala pouze u slibů.
