Green land is turning green at a speed that should be terrifying us all.
However the pending disaster is lost to our imagination because the climate is now a product to be sold on the market. Hedge funds , carbon credits, etc
11, 000 square miles of Greenland’s ice sheet and glaciers have melted over the past 30 years.
It is beyond belief that we are still trying to get the world to take climate change seriously.
How stupid does one have to be not to able to realise what climate change is doing and will do to the planet.
The answer is simple – Profit before people.
So communication about the climate has been left to the marketplace and the market is determined to use fossil fulls till they run out.
The sea level has been rising since the end of the Last Glacial Maximum, which was around 20,000 years ago.[3] Between 1901 and 2018, the average sea level rose by 15–25 cm (6–10 in), with an increase of 2.3 mm (0.091 in) per year since the 1970s.
This was faster than the sea level had ever risen over at least the past 3,000 years.
The rate accelerated to 4.62 mm (0.182 in)/yr for the decade 2013–2022.
Climate change due to human activities is the main cause of this persistent acceleration.
Between 1993 and 2018, melting ice sheets and glaciers accounted for 44% of sea level rise, with another 42% resulting from thermal expansion of water.
Sea level rise lags behind changes in the Earth‘s temperature by decades, and sea level rise will therefore continue to accelerate between now and 2050 in response to warming that has already happened.
What happens after that depends on future human greenhouse gas emissions.
Rising seas affect every coastal population on Earth. The sea level rise projected by 2050 will expose places currently inhabited by tens of millions of people to annual flooding.
Wake up or learn to swim it’s the start of a tidal wave.
All human comments appreciated. All like clicks and abuse chucked in the bin.
