The best possible future — the one with fewer climate disasters, extinctions, and human suffering — involves limiting global warming to 1.5 degrees Celsius. But for this to happen, a new report warns, greenhouse gas levels must start dropping by 2025.

“We are on a fast track to climate disaster,” United Nations Secretary-General António Guterres said on Monday while announcing the new report by the United Nation’s preeminent climate body, the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change.

“This is not fiction or exaggeration,” he added. “It is what science tells us will result from our current energy policies. We are on a pathway to global warming of more than double 1.5 degrees.”

“It is what science tells us will result from our current energy policies

Science doesn't "tell us" anything.

And the "science" in this case is highly conflicted, both as to methodology and interpretation.

I woke up to an inch of snow yesterday. If this Global Warming continues in Iowa, we are all going to freeze to death.

Just like the pandemic, CC and global warming are a hoax.

“Global warming ... is now accepted as a reality by the international community."

That was a story from 2000. I think we all realize by now that when they say "the international community," they mean the earth's extremely-rich leftist oligarchs.

No; more like a good 75’ rope and a stout pine or oak tree.

For a long time the warming limit was 2 degC.
I guess that was not going to be reached soon, so now the Armageddon level was lowered to 1.5 deg C!
If you cannot reach your goal, change it!

IF, no,.... not “if” because it isn’t happening. (man made climate change, that is) the climate is always changing. Its called “weather”, which humans have been unable to predict accurately up to this very moment.

Puny humans have ZERO ability to affect climate change.
The erf is YUGE! The oceans are YUGE. Climate is extremely COMPLEX.

What is it exactly that leftists would do that would actually “CHANGE” the climate?

Reduce CO2? Is that IT? STARVE ALL the trees and plants? If they were successful, what are we supposed to breathe?

These people are just NUTS!

Dear António Guterres,

Opinions vary. Thanks so much for sharing yours, such that it is.

Back in 1942 MGM did a Traveltalks short on Glacier and Waterton National Parks.
They stated that the glaciers have been melting since the last Ice Age, and “If there is NO CLIMATIC CHANGE, they will be gone in a THOUSAND YEARS.”
