*Why prep then?.... to get through the next handful of years, just slightly more prepared and with a tiny bit more dignity than our neighbours?

Re: Long time survivalist/prepper, new to this forum- hello from Oxfordshire

Attempting to recapture it would be trying to brake the laws of physics. It's sci fi. They opened a CC plant recently somewhere. A dop in the ocean. You'd need millions of them, an industry as big as any major industry. You need a lot of land for that. As I have said it breaks the laws of physics. ...

Re: Long time survivalist/prepper, new to this forum- hello from Oxfordshire

Consider that we are in the midst of a mass extinction. The planet is at 1.3° warmer than pre industrial. The 2024 El Niňo coupled with the lunar maximum could push us to 1.5°within 2 years as predicted by climate and meteorologists. We are now beyond peak oil. Oil & coal are civilisations addi...

At 1.5-2° warming Agriculture will collapse. Its already in crisis now.

It won't be long before it won't be possible to grow grain at scale. This is what we mean by loss of habitat for humans.

Re: Long time survivalist/prepper, new to this forum- hello from Oxfordshire

What is needed is a paradigm shift in how humans see themselves on this planet. It doesn't belong to us. Indigenous people have mostly seen themselves as care takers of the land. If we need to forage/hunt /fish to survive then we need to use our intelligence in exactly the same way that our distant ...

Re: Long time survivalist/prepper, new to this forum- hello from Oxfordshire

If human emissions were our only problem it would be fine and work according to some models, however CO2 is not the only GHG. No body knows how much CH4 is locked into the Arctic ocean hydrates. The Arctic ocean is less than 50m deep so as it warms it will release those hydrates. The 2° trajectory i...

There is no fix. Glacial melt will not stop. It will get hotter each year and this civilisation will probably collapse.

Re: Long time survivalist/prepper, new to this forum- hello from Oxfordshire

If it wasn't for XRs protests you probably wouldn't have a clue that there's a climate crisis. I know you don't like Greta, but she has put the climate crisis in the public domain- a little and very intelligent teenage girl. No one is blaming you for this crisis. We are all responsible. We have all ...
