Clearly we need to act fast, some interesting measures here but main issue has to be moving away from hydrocarbons more rapidly than we are, scaling up renewables investing in tech for solar and possibly nuclear to rescue in short term

I heard someone arguing that extreme cold killed many more people than extreme heat, at least historically. I guess its not a competition, both are symptoms of evolving weather which is increasingly volatile and extreme, period.

But how do the people in the near East, Africa or Middle Australia survive the heat then? I guess you can get used to some higher temperatures.

no, they literally just die. Also air moisture is very important to consider if heat is deadly or not because high air moisture means that sweating doesn’t work. People in the near East for example dont have as much of a problem as people in india

The presumably smart designs are going to be proved dumb if the wisdom of nature is patented behind locked vaults to accumulate disproportionately the perceived wealth.
Traditionally humans learnt to live with nature as relatives of nature until some bullies came to squeeze nature off its coal, oil, minerals and what not.
Tell us the history of what became “modern”; the so called “civilisation” where war against living and non-living things have been fought day in day out in the name of the same coal, oil, minerals and lives.

It’s been 50 years since the 1972 Stockholm conference, and there have been so many climate conferences until today. All talk and no or little action. In the meantime, it seems to have become too late, with things getting only worse and worse.
Everything has a point of no return. And the climate crisis may well have already reached its tipping point. All we can do now is to try to mitigate the impact just like a driver who, when knowing a crash is unavoidable, tries to minimize the damage by braking and steering.

This is treating the symptoms. As all this rebuilding occurs it all produces more GHGs increasing climate change. If your going to have any longterm effect on climate change you have to reduce birth rates and fundamentally change our economic system to one that is sustainable. No one’s even discussing this.

Some of her ideas are good. However, we cannot base any decisions we make on the Current Climate. That is the height of ignorance, propaganda, and hugely detrimental folly. We are in an Ice Age. And the climate could change to be 5 or 10 degrees colder on average overnight/ within 5 or 10 years, -a century or less.
There is nothing Humans can do about the Weather. Humans have nothing whatsoever to do with Climate. The scientific evidence is absolutely conclusive/ overwhelming in this regard. Yet we are continually propaganda brainwashed with the Special Interest Political and Financial Agenda, to accept the conspiracy as scientific fact.
