    More evidence that the future of coastal cities is written in the ice of Antarctica. New Nature paper: "Our results suggest that major loss of Antarctica’s marine-based ice sheets, and an associated sea level rise of up to 23 meters, is likely if CO2 remains... above 400 ppm."

    Sea levels varied by up to 25 meters over glacial-interglacial cycles due to partial collapses of Antarctic Ice Sheets during the Pliocene epoch, which is similar to the Earth’s current climate event, according to a Nature paper.

    Will never forget the kayaking trip as a teen, where they came to the banks — and then kept on, into the water, up to their necks, towards us, and whoever imagined they would do that; how we paddled like crazy.

    I call this moment the Carbon Crash. It'll likely also be accompanied by financial market turmoil, regional economic collapses, forced austerity measures, socially reactionary movements, violence & more calls for planetary-scale geoengineering. Or, we could, you know, act now.

    I anticipate there's going to be an extraordinary & terrifying moment in a decade or so--after mindlessly muddling through a couple more presidential terms & climate half measures--when we realize just how much we've already missed 1.5°C by & just how late in the game things are.

    The prosecutions of Bernard Collaery and Witness K come at a time of vastly increased powers for police and intelligence agencies. Their hope is not to create a police state. It is much more ambitious than that.
