    TUHOKlimaticka zmena / If the fracturing of our once stable climate doesn’t terrify you, then you don’t fully understand it


    "Given the sheer enormity of climate change, it’s okay to be depressed, to grieve. But please, don’t stay there too long. Join me in pure, unadulterated, righteous anger."


    "I don’t want your hope. I don’t want you to be hopeful. I want you to panic. I want you to feel the fear I feel every day. And then I want you to act. Once you start to act, the hope is everywhere."

    "Our best scientists tell us insistently that a calamity is unfolding, that the life-support systems of the Earth are being damaged in ways that threaten our survival. Yet in the face of these facts we carry on as usual."

    “We’ve got to stop burning fossil fuels. So many aspects of life depend on fossil fuels, except for music and love and education and happiness. These things, which hardly use fossil fuels, are what we must focus on.”

    A nejde o to, že na to nemáme dostatečné technologie, ty by na řešení použít šly, ale chybí nám vůle a představivost je využít. Zůstáváme při zemi, přemýšlíme až moc rezervovaně. Technologický pokrok to sám o sobě nevyřeší. Problém jsme my, ne technologické nástroje.

    Rostouci hladiny oceanu, zmena atmosferickeho proudeni, zmeny v distribuci srazek a sucha. Zmeny karbonoveho, fosforoveho a dusikoveho cyklu, okyselovani oceanu. Jake jsou bezpecnostni rizika a jake potencialni klady dramatickych zmen fungovani zemskeho systemu?
    Ale take jak funguji masove dezinformacni kampane ropneho prumyslu a boj o verejne mineni na prahu noveho klimatickeho rezimu post-holocenu.

    Friends,

    This new paper presents an excellent summary of many of the present misunderstandings concerning soil carbon drawdown.

    How farming could become the ultimate climate-change tool
    Nogrady 2024
    https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-024-02036-x


    Contrary to what is claimed in this paper:

    The production and release of root exudates — not, as often mistakenly believed, plant decomposition — is the primary way carbon is transferred from the atmosphere into soil.

    Under proper management, significant changes in soil carbon can be achieved in a single growing season.

    TUHO: Tady kdyztak summary 30 let prace Rahmstorfa na tema. Relativne kratkej clanek, hodne dat, obrazku, srozumitelny pro vetsinu lidi

    The Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation has a major impact on climate, not just in the northern Atlantic but globally. Paleoclimatic data show it has been unstable in the past, leading to some of the most dramatic and abrupt climate shifts known. These instabilities are due to two different types of tipping points, one linked to amplifying feedbacks in the large-scale salt transport and the other in the convective mixing that drives the flow. These tipping points present a major risk of abrupt ocean circulation and climate shifts as we push our planet further out of the stable Holocene climate into uncharted waters.

    Executive summary – COP28 Tripling Renewable Capacity Pledge – Analysis - IEA
    https://www.iea.org/reports/cop28-tripling-renewable-capacity-pledge/executive-summary

    Even if all countries were to fully implement their current ambitions, the world would fall 30% short of tripling global renewable capacity to over 11 000 GW by 2030. The current ambitions of advanced economies and of emerging and developing economies are not aligned with the COP28 pledge to triple global renewable power capacity by 2030, which is one of the key elements needed to get on track for the IEA’s pathway to achieving net zero emissions by mid-century and limiting warming to 1.5 °C. For advanced economies, the level of ambition needs to increase from a growth factor of 1.9 to 2.5. For emerging and developing economies, the growth factor should rise from 2.4 to 3.4.

    CHOSIE: zacnu postupne:

    1) Proč si raději neposlechnout antropology, klimatology, ekology, aj.?

    Protoze je to beh na delsi trat, kazdy ma trochu jiny nazor, atd. Ne kazdy si muze dovolit z pohledu casu jit do detailu kazdeho topicu a delat si srovnani jak praci, tak backgroundu autoru. Pokud nekdo udela srozumitelne summary nad obecne prijimanymi teoriemi, je to cesta, jak se posunout k (individualne) dulezitejsim vecem rychleji. Z toho duvodu takove summary a abstrakty obecne vznikaji. Efektivita vyuziti casu.

    2) ad Matt Ridley a red flag. Pokud odsoudis na zaklade clanku, kdy se primluvil u statnich instituci za ccs technologii pro uhelne elektrarny (a faktu, ze na svem pozemku jednu uhelku hostuje), ze veskere jeho zivotni dilo, ve kterem jsem osobne zatim nenarazil na nic o uhlenych elektrarnach (napr. Cervena kralovna jez popularizovala evolucni biologii), nema duveru, protoze ma napojeni na fosil, tak podkopavas vlastni duveryhodnost delat spravne usudky

    3) Reality blind - zbezne jsem prosel dostupne stranky a na kazde nasel autoruv narativ, ktery priohyba realitu, napr.:
    - 205) money is no longer tied to physical world - money is primarily claim to future energy and non-renewable sources. Jednak si v dane vete protireci a jednak se snazi nastinit narativ, ze penize nas vlastne v nove dobe, po zlatem standardu, zenou do vycerpani. Neni to tak, za money si kupujes i renewable sources, nebo recyklovane zbozi. Money jsou vyjadrenim hodnoty, ktera se dale vyuziva pro exchange, vzdy tomu tak bylo a vzdy tomu tak bude. Je jedno jestli jde o energii, renewable, non-renewable a je jedno, jestli je kryte zlatem nebo ne, pac kryti zlatem byl sam o sobe take jen virtualni koncept.

    - 207 soucasna prace na svete je zbytecna, pac se jedna jen o distribuci fosilni energie... ano, ale to taky neni nic noveho, mohl bys rict, ze prace na poli se zviraty je zbytecna, protoze se jedna o distribuci zvireci energie. Ale hura na hate fosil, dela nas zbytecnymi! :)

    - 209 95% money around the world is created out of thin air - tohle se autorovi opet hodi do kramu a neni tomu tak. Jednak komercni banka nemuze zvysovat penezni zasobu, to mohou jen centralni banky. Dale, ty penize jsou kryte vklady, nejsou out of thin air (tohle se delo i pred Kristem, v ramci chramu/klasteru, ktere slouzily jako banky, opet nic noveho jak se nam autor snazi podsunout 'soucasne zlo'. A posledni 'represents finite amount of non-renewable resources' je asi podobne vypovidajici jako veta, ze elektromobil je ekologicky nesmysl, protoze jezdi na energii z fosilnich elektraren (realita jak zde vime je komplikovanejsi).

    Atd. Tohle je knizka, ktera dela oversimplifications v ramci sveho narativu a osobne bych ji nikomu dal nedoporucil...

    Sorry, za formating, ale sem na mobilu.

    The IPCC’s reductive Common Era temperature history
    Common Era temperature variability has been a prominent component in Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change reports over the last several decades and was twice featured in their Summary for Policymakers. A single reconstruction of mean Northern Hemisphere temperature variability was first highlighted in the 2001 Summary for Policymakers, despite other estimates that existed at the time. Subsequent reports assessed many large-scale temperature reconstructions, but the entirety of Common Era temperature history in the most recent Sixth Assessment Report of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change was restricted to a single estimate of mean annual global temperatures. We argue that this focus on a single reconstruction is an insufficient summary of our understanding of temperature variability over the Common Era. We provide a complementary perspective by offering an alternative assessment of the state of our understanding in high-resolution paleoclimatology for the Common Era and call for future reports to present a more accurate and comprehensive assessment of our knowledge about this important period of human and climate history.

    Russia in the Arctic—A Critical Examination

    summary zaveru copu - silnej push od usa, eu a dalsich statu na fossil fuel phase put. staty opec a rusko do toho brutal hazi vidle a snazi se vykoupit moznosti cca

    Reducing emissions theoretically provides for several pathways, of which phase out of fossil fuels is just one. And in this case, “emissions” and “unabated” targets are essentially two forms of a “get out of jail card” to keep their fossil fuel production and use going.
    The difference between an “emissions reduction” pathway and a “fossil fuel phase out” pathway is that major fossil fuel producers believe they can keep pumping oil and gas and digging coal while working on emissions reduction technologies like carbon capture, direct air capture and investing in offsets.
    As we know, despite the time the technology has existed, carbon capture is still not deployable at even a fraction of what would be required. Saudi Arabia, for example, has just one functioning plant.
    It’s catastrophically expensive, potentially costing $1 trillion a year according to researchers at the Oxford Smith School and doesn’t work very well, according to Climate Analytics. And CCS doesn’t even apply to oil use at all and it only has potential application to gas and coal in quite specific circumstances.

    Dosiahli sme planetárne "Points of No Return"?

    Pred niekoľkými dňami vyšla veľmi zásadná správa - Globálne body zvratu (Global Tipping Points ---> Points of No Return; Global Systems Institute - GSI, University of Exeter). Podľa správy je 5 planetárnych systémov na pokraji veľmi rýchlych zmien, ktoré by sa dali nazvať tiež termínom "kolaps" (pre našu spoločnosť rozhodne nič pozitívne). Správa hodnotí celkovo 25 planetárnych systémov, ktoré môžu niekedy v budúcnosti dosiahnuť body zvratu.

    Planetárne systémy blízko bodu zvratu:
    👉kontinentálny ľadovec v Grónsku
    👉kontinentálny ľadovec v západnej Antarktíde
    👉hynutie tropických koralov (koralových útesov)
    👉stabilita morskej cirkulácie v sev. Atlantiku (SGC)
    👉topenie a rozpad permafrostu
    --------------------------------------
    Čo je bod zvratu? Ide o zmenu, po ktorej sa celý systém dostane do nového stabilného stavu. Príklad ---> ak sa budete húpať na stoličke, dlho zostane celý systém stabilný a vždy sa vráti do základnej stabilnej, počiatočnej pozície. Ak však húpanie „preženiete“, celý systém sa vychýli z rovnováhy a nový stabilný stav sa doslova "presunie" na podlahu ---> čo samozrejme pocítite ako dosť bolestivý pád.
    --------------------------------------

    ⚠️10 najdôležitejších záverov správy:
    1️⃣zmena klímy rýchlo posúva prírodné systémy k bodom zvratu - 5 planetárnych systémov je blízko tohto stavu
    2️⃣ľudstvo stojí pre bodmi zvratu, s ktorými sa nikdy nestretlo
    3️⃣dopady bodov zvratu budú mať pre súčasnú globalizovanú spoločnosť krajne negatívne účinky = nestabilita, vojnové konflikty, atď.
    4️⃣zastaviť a zvrátiť zmeny, resp. minimalizovať pravdepodobnosť bodov zvratu, je možné, no vyžaduje by si to rýchle a globálne koordinované úsilie
    5️⃣aj napriek globálnemu koordinovanému úsiliu sú niektoré body zvratu už nezvratné (a ich spustenie je len otázkou času)
    6️⃣existujú aj tzv. pozitívne body zvratu, ktoré nám môžu pomôcť na ceste k udržateľnosti a stabilizácii globálneho klimatického systému
    7️⃣jeden pozitívny bod zvratu môže pritom aktivizovať ďalší, čo môže urýchliť cestu a návrat k stabilite
    8️⃣aby sme dosiahli pozitívne body zvratu, potrebujeme globálne koordinované úsilie, ktoré však bude rešpektovať globálnu rovnosť a spravodlivosť („equity & justice“)
    9️⃣je treba však súčasne vyvinúť intenzívnejšie úsilie na to, aby sme globálnym bodom zvratu lepšie porozumeli, súčasne však už vieme dosť na to, aby sme dokázali adekvátne reagovať a začali pracovať na zmene
    🔟dosiahnutie pozitívnych bodov zvratu bude predstavovať zmysluplnú a systémovú reakciu (a riešenie) na negatívne dopady kriticky nepriaznivých bodov zvratu
    --------------------------------------

    ✅️6 základných odporúčaní, ktoré správa uvádza:
    1️⃣okamžité ukončenie spaľovania (využívania) fosílnych palív ako hlavnej príčiny akcelerujúcej zmeny klímy
    2️⃣posilniť možnosti adaptácie a intenzívne podporovať fond Loss & damage (práve o ňom sa jedná na #COP28)
    3️⃣doplniť planetárne body zvratov do plánov NDC (Nationally Determined Contribution = národné plány ako znižovať emisie skleníkových plynov a adaptovať sa na negatívne dopady zmena klímy)
    4️⃣globálne koordinovať konkrétne aktivity, ktoré povedú k dosiahnutiu pozitívnych bodov zvratu (napr. rýchle ukončenie využívania fosílnych zdrojov)
    5️⃣usporiadať globálnu konferenciu o planetárnych bodoch zvratu
    6️⃣prehĺbiť naše znalosti o planetárnych bodoch zvratu (a ich potenciálnych dopadoch a ľudskú spoločnosť)
    --------------------------------------

    ⚠️Najdôležitejšie posolstvo správy ---> Ničnerobenie nás bude stáť veľmi veľa. Dilema, pred ktorou stojíme nie je o tom, či byť aktívni alebo pokračovať ako sme zvyknutí. Stojíme skôr pred voľbou, či urobiť maximum pre odvrátenie "kolapsu", alebo žiť v oveľa horšom a nebezpečnejšom svete, než poznáme dnes.

    Hele a tady bozi summary na historie klimatologie od americkeho historika a fyzika Spencer Wearta. Jak jsme prisli na to, ze se ohriva - a jak jsme si zavreli cestu, k tomu abysme se vyhnuli nebezpecny klimaticky zmene. Tyve dneska to na me nejak dopada... Cistu si tu historii takhle v kontextu, je tak strasne depresivni.

    By the late 1970s global temperatures had begun to rise again. Since the late 1950s some climate scientists had been predicting that an unprecedented global warming would become apparent around the year 2000. Their worries finally caught wide public attention in the summer of 1988, the hottest on record till then. Computer modeler James Hansen made headlines when he told a Congressional hearing and journalists that greenhouse warming was almost certainly underway. And a major international meeting of scientists in Toronto called on governments to undertake active steps to cut greenhouse gas emissions.

    The response was vehement. Corporations and individuals who opposed all government regulation began to spend millions of dollars on lobbying, advertising, and "reports" that mimicked scientific publications, striving to convince the public that there was no problem at all. Environmental groups, less wealthy but more enthusiastic, helped politicize the issue with urgent cries of alarm. The many scientific uncertainties, and the sheer complexity of climate, made room for limitless debate over what actions, if any, governments should take.
    ...

    If every nation met its target, what would they achieve? The science remained stubbornly imprecise, for the global climate system is a tangle of many interacting influences. Scientists did know that without stronger and prolonged efforts we were likely to get a rise to 2.5°C or more. That would be a desperately wounded world, where it would be difficult to sustain a civilization that was anywhere prosperous and peaceful. And we would face a small but real risk of triggering unstoppable heating, to a point where it would be difficult to sustain any civilization at all.

    Future diplomacy would have to press urgently for stronger pledges and see that they were fulfilled. The world’s climate experts explained that we had delayed action for so long that we could now avoid grave harm only if global emissions did not just level off, but began to plunge by the year 2030. The policies set during the decade of the 2020s would determine the state of the planet’s climate for thousands of years to come. Fortunately, the expense of making the necessary changes in our economic and social systems would be far less than the cost of allowing climate change to continue, and would bring numerous other benefits. Ever more people and organizations saw that the work was in their own interest and began to undertake it.

    The IPCC AR6 concluded that “climate models can only reproduce the observed warming […] when including the effects of human activities […], in particular the increasing concentration of greenhouse gases”, and that “simulations that include only natural process, including internal variability related to El Niño and other similar variations, as well as variations in the activity of the sun and emissions from large volcanoes […], are not able to reproduce the observed warming” (AR6, FAQ 3.1, p. 515) [1]. Largely on this basis, AR6 concluded that contemporary climate change is “overwhelmingly due to human influence” (Technical Summary, p. 11). However, in this article, we argue that this confident “detection and attribution of climate change” statement was unjustified because it failed to satisfactorily assess two key ongoing scientific debates:

    1. How much of the warming since the 19th century implied by current global temperature estimates is an artifact of urbanization biases?
    2. Have we established a reliable solar forcing dataset for estimating the solar contribution to these trends?

    Dnes vyšla 6. zpráva Mezivládního panelu pro změnu klimatu (IPCC). O budoucích životech dětí, které se rodí dnes, rozhodují bohužel dnešní politici. Pokud se nic nezmění, čeká je už nezvratný nárůst globální teploty o 3-4 stupně a s tím související vymírání živočišných druhů, neobyvatelnost velké části planety, nedostatek zdrojů, několikanásobně častější přírodní katastrofy a z toho všeho logicky plynoucí masová migrace, ozbrojené konflikty a další globální nárůst ekonomických nerovností.

    Oproti veškeré logice to v české politické a mediální debatě není a nebude zpráva týdne ani zpráva dne.

    Oproti veškeré logice si málokdo z českých policymakerů přečte Summary for policymakers.

    Oproti veškeré logice budou lidé požadující urychlené snižování emisí skleníkových plynů v českém prostředí označováni za šílence, bolševiky, ekoteroristy a fanatiky.

    S poznatky ze zprávy bude v ČR pracovat a argumentovat jimi jen pár desítek lidí, které člověk zpravidla všechny zná skoro osobně.

    On March 28, the U.S. Federal Budget request for Fiscal Year 2023 (FY2023) was released, officially kicking off the Congressional budget season and the ensuing posture testimonies, staffer briefs, and associated deep dives into the details of the budget. With that first release, however, the Department of Defense (DoD) had not yet made available the budget details – instead providing just an information appetizer in the form of an overview slide deck. The slides indicated that the DoD characterized $3.1 billion of its budget request as “climate investment” in four categories: Installation Resiliency and Adaptation ($2 billion); Science and Technology ($807 million); Operational Energy and Buying Power ($247 million); and Contingency Preparedness ($28 million). These categories roughly line up with similar categories from FY2022 but represent significant increases in each. The FY2022 budget identified $617 million in similar categories. That said, while the categories remain the same, the contents are slightly different and it is hard to make an apples-to-apples comparison between the two.

    As of April 21, however, the Pentagon has now released the first-ever detailed justification book on DoD climate spending that outlines these investments across 42 pages. (If you want the one-page summary, you can look at page 4-17 of the Budget Request Overview.) This provides the details and various accounts that indicate how the Department calculated the $3.1 billion.
