Every movie about an apocalyptic event begins by ignoring...
If we enable a system where pretentious politicians, media people, and scientists, benefit from perpetual energy and environmental crises that are only forged to make money and sustain power, and we further allow governments to break our laws for an "emergency", then real emergencies are created. The result is that the well being of ordinary, and especially poor people, is compromised while interests of the elitists are ensured.
The real issues and solutions are never heard about from the "unpretentious" intelligent people who are silenced and ignored. Therefore, issues with plastics and oxygen levels produced by our oceans' invisible green forest are lost in excess verbiage and a solution to our world's energy needs with Hydrogen Fuel Cells using Hydrogen obtained from rain water and produced only on demand is cancelled. All because these solutions have no money making bills for "we the people" to pay every month.
Keep crying wolf and nobody will do anything anymore to help our environment.
The above report is also misleading because we have changing climates, not "climate change". Using the term "climate change" as if an entire planet is having the same exact problem everywhere is misleading. We have parts of Earth colder and parts of our oceans warmer. In other words, we have a complex interconnecting, yet separate situations and issues.
Creating lies through the process of omission
Most unpretentious scientists agree that we are at least 1.5 degrees Celsius above pre-industrial temperatures today. This quantitative assessment and research of this past warming period 2,000 years ago was conducted by Prof. Aldo Shemesh, head of the Environmental Sciences and Energy Research Department at the Weizmann Institute of Science. They performed an isotopic analysis of sediments from Hausberg Tarn, a lake on the slope of Mount Kenya 4,350 meters high. The results matched studies showing the same warming period of the Swedish part of Lapland, the southern Yukon territory, and Alaska 2,000 years ago.
Supporting data for this comes from the receding glaciers and ice patches in Norway and Canada that is caused by today’s current changing climate. As the ice recedes, human artifacts have been released from their frozen containment. Arrowheads, tunics, tools, and sandals. In 2022, a 1,700-year-old arrow was discovered by archeologists, showing that humans lived in areas that were recently covered by ice and glaciers. The dating of these artifacts goes back to matching the warming period between 2000-1500 years ago.
