Peter Kalmus: ‘Zero years’
We have zero years before climate and ecological breakdown, because it’s already here. We have zero years left to procrastinate. The longer we wait to act, the worse the floods, fires, droughts, famines and heatwaves will get.

The primary cause of these catastrophes is burning fossil fuel. Therefore, we must shut down the fossil fuel industry as quickly as we can. Fossil fuel subsidies must end today. New fracking wells, pipelines and other fossil fuel infrastructure can no longer be built; that we continue on this path is collective insanity. Fossil fuel must be capped and rationed, and diverted to necessities as we transition to a zero-carbon civilization. If we fail, the planet will continue to heat up, creeping past 1.5C, then 2C, then 3C of global heating as we keep squandering precious time. With every fraction of a degree, the floods and fires and heat will get worse. Coastal cities will be abandoned. Ocean currents will shift. Crops will fail. Ecosystems will collapse. Hundreds of millions will flee regions with humid heat too high for the human body. Geopolitics will break down. No place will be safe. These disasters are like gut punches to our civilization.

PETER_PAN: btw sledujes toto? consi o tom myslis?

In its quarterly letter to shareholders, Quantumscape has offered a glimpse behind its solid-state curtain with multiple progress updates.

The biggest news to come out of the report was the announcement of a 10-layer solid-state battery. Not only has the Quantumscape created this solid-state battery, but it has already begun testing it.

jinak prave probiha projednavani prvni pracovni skupiny (physical basis of climate change) IPCC nad prispevkem do sesteho assesment reportu. nejvetsi udalost pro klima vedu od roku 2014. cely AR6 by mel byt pak venku pristi rok. jsem zvedavej, jak tuhle udalost planetarniho vyznamu budou reportovat media .)

PER2: ze problematika je adresovana skrz rovinu rozhodovacich procesu, rozhodnuti je to, co za neco "muze" nakolik se o tom rozhodujeme.

TUHO:
Suffering from drought and water shortages since March, they've taken to the streets in the last couple of weeks to express their anger with the government and its poor management of water resources.
"We've known about the problem of water scarcity and the threat it poses to national security for more than 30 years,"
According to official figures, Iran now has 192 dams — around 10 times it did some 40 years ago. "The government is seeking quick solutions that promise short-term success.

"As, for example, when you point out that you shouldn't, on principle, build large dams in a dry country like Iran, because too much water evaporates from the reservoirs."
Environmental experts have said the current water shortage is also the consequence of a mistaken understanding of agriculture development and progress. The government continues to be focused on maximizing self-sufficiency, not least as a response to sanctions and pressure from abroad.

It has been promoting agriculture and allowing the digging of deep wells, which have exhausted the available water resources. The traditional crops in Khuzestan are rice and sugar cane, both of which require large amounts of water. Around 90% of Iran's total water consumption is used up by agriculture.


tldr: lets blame clima change for everything
