    I wonder if any judge/jury is going to find the large oil conglomerates liable for trillions in damages.

    Liable for destroying our world (and for what?)

    If protests are going to be punished like this, folks might as well go full-blown eco-terrorist.

    This is disgusting. Greenpeace fights for all of humanity while the real criminals sit in luxury yachts.

    I’m looking forward to Greenpeace telling the judge to go fuck themselves be more respectful and not pay squat. Any day now.

    What an embarrassing way to go extinct.

    Sometimes I tell myself this must be one of those “great filters,” then I just can’t believe that it’s common for a species capable of terraforming their world would be dumb enough to do it in reverse eyes wide open, like crawling towards a cliff shouting “nooooooooo!”

    I can’t picture the future dolphin people doing it.

    I became a supporter recently (again). They wrote about the threat of the lawsuit in their leaflets. I’m speechless.

Discussion of climate, how it is changing, activism around that, the politics, and the energy systems change we need in order to stabilize things.

As a starting point, the burning of fossil fuels, and to a lesser extent deforestation and release of methane are responsible for the warming in recent decades: Graph of temperature as observed with significant warming, and simulated without added greenhouse gases and other anthropogentic changes, which shows no significant warming

How much each change to the atmosphere has warmed the world: IPCC AR6 Figure 2 - Thee bar charts: first chart: how much each gas has warmed the world.  About 1C of total warming.  Second chart:  about 1.5C of total warming from well-mixed greenhouse gases, offset by 0.4C of cooling from aerosols and negligible influence from changes to solar output, volcanoes, and internal variability.  Third chart: about 1.25C of warming from CO2, 0.5C from methane, and a bunch more in small quantities from other gases.  About 0.5C of cooling with large error bars from SO2.

Recommended actions to cut greenhouse gas emissions in the near future:
