What now? Two more BAU years.

The EU did virtually nothing since Paris in 2015.
Note: No. There won't be people with dirty backpacks roaming the Earth. Nothing will be left. Famine, disease and death for all is all there is. #Collapse2028 #Extinction2100
Europe suffers a sever drought. Since 2018.

Our solution: More irrigation and more fertiliser and more pesticides.

7.5 billion humans have never been on an airplane. But those who do fly - fly even more than before. Always for good and important reasons. Always.

Cool. I love that you modelled collapse dates. I model #Extinction2100 % chances. To me, collapse won't have a specific date as the few causes (overpopulation & livestock) have so many different symptoms. I used the #Collapse2028 hashtag to honour Lovelock or the idea of staying below 1.5°C by 2100.
My #Collapse2028 tag never took off ;) but was based on the next El Nino coming sooner than later.
The 20-year trend line fits observational data better than the 30-year trend line and should be our default position going forward and until proven wrong by observational data.

We simply must balance our demand for energy with our rapidly shrinking resources. By acting now we can control our future instead of letting the future control us. Jimmy Carter

“Population growth and rising incomes remain the strongest drivers of increases in CO2 emissions."
- IPCC
There are many bad symptoms but only two drivers:
👶 Population growth
🐮 Consumption (cows & cars) growth

If car bans erode "existing green values" then these values are not worth the paper they are written on 🧻

"The fraction of microbial diversity that we have sampled to date is effectively zero."
"Now biologists are warning of a microbial extinction event"
We don't know much. We mainly know how to destroy all life on Earth as quickly and thoroughly as 'humanly' possible.

If the poor started driving cheap electric cars instead of the rich taking public transport - we are all dead.
If the poor started eating more meat instead of the rich eating plant based - we are all dead.
Guess what is happening?
#1.5°Cby2100 = #Collapse2028 #Extinction2100
We have ze solutions™️
- No kids
- Plant based food & housing
- Local
- Low tech
Anything else is not cyclical & sustainable.
Ergo, we will soon collapse and go extinct later.

I use the hashtags #Collapse2028 #Extinction2100
Not because I like numbers and dates but as a homage to "1.5°C by 2100" and as a homage to the late James Lovelock.
Not a single climate scenario (like SSP5-8.5) or model predicted how bad it would be today. Time to balance this? ⚖️
The worst debt in the history of multi-celled life, 600 million years in the making, is today. Right now.
The data for the chart below is from 2008-2018. Since then, we have accelerated and are now losing 2/3s of insect biomass per decade. Also in nature reserves.

When biomass collapse precedes species collapse it strongly implies extremely rapid ecological destabilization and is consistent with the worst phases of past mass extinction dynamics. It is scientifically defensible to call it a credible ecological worst-case pathway.

Wachstumsökonomie auf einem endlichen Planeten ist ein Pyramidensystem.
Stadtjobs, die Geld erfordern, anstatt unsere eigenen pflanzlichen Lebensmittel lokal anzubauen, machen das Pyramidensystem möglich.
#Collapse2028 #Extinction2100
Growth economics on a finite planet is a pyramid scheme.
City jobs requiring money instead of growing our own food are making the pyramid scheme possible.
#Collapse2028 #Extinction2100
When we claim that we have to produce & consume more first and before we can start reducing first, we end up in a fatal feedback loop.
