'Delay means death': UN climate report urges world to adapt now
France24 ^ | February 28, 2022

Posted on 02/28/2022 8:47:01 AM PST by Oldeconomybuyer

Climate change is upon us and humanity is far from ready, the United Nations climate science panel warned in a major report on Monday.

Noting that nearly half the world's population was already vulnerable to increasingly dangerous climate impacts, the report calls for drastic action on a huge scale: A third to a half of the planet needs to be conserved to ensure future food and freshwater supplies. Coastal cities need plans to keep people safe from storms and rising seas. And more.

"Adaptation saves lives," U.N. Secretary-General Antonio Guterres said with the report's release. "As climate impacts worsen – and they will – scaling up investments will be essential for survival... Delay means death."

The 3,675-page report is the latest in a series by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) detailing the global consensus onclimate science.

On nearly all counts, the report makes clear that climate change is impacting the world far faster than scientists had anticipated. Meanwhile, countries have failed to rein in planet-warming carbon emissions, which continue to rise.

"Unchecked carbon pollution is forcing the world's most vulnerable on a frogmarch to destruction," Guterres said in a video address Monday. "The facts are undeniable. This abdication of leadership is criminal."

I wonder if the air scrubbers used in submarines could be made small and incorporated in a helmet. And everyone gets a helmet. Free of charge, of course.

Churchill warned against a UN being nothing but frothy speech. I don’t think he foresaw foaming at the mouth, though.

They just won’t quit. Even in the midst of their concocted global pandemic, their Ukraine crisis, the drastic world-supply problem and their refusal to admit Americans and Canadians are full to the brim with their crap, they have to pull out this Climate Change sh!t. They need to get a life and stop buying up all the beachfront property, then.

They’re like the tortoise and the scorpion trying to cross the river.....the scorpion just can’t help itself from killing its only means of survival.

The UN climate report is just another vehicle to implement the NWO.

Agree

The sole cause of climate change is the Sun.

The original microbes that developed oxygen-based metabolism and photosynthesis converted the earth atmosphere from a hydrogen-sulfide, carbon-dioxide mix into the present 19.5 percent oxygen mix.

The sky turned from yellow to blue as a consequence. There have been other interesting side effects.

Blue-green algae or plankton in the oceans and the plants in rain forests of various locations are still keeping the oxygen mix going.

Life is powerful.

Politicians, not so much.

Dear John,

Your panic porn is not selling well in the face of reality.

There is no "man-made climate change". We NEVER believed your lies or your faked "evidence", or your fraudulent "consensus" claims regarding "the science".

God is in charge of "population control" and the climate, not you.

Just go away, please!

Covid was just the prototype for what these bastards have planned with the climate BS.

On a list of the top 20 things to worry about, climate change is probably around # 67 on the list..... If it’s even ON the list.

AFA ‘climate change goes, masks help, as does socialist distancing. And, of course, getting you quarterly CCP-Coronavirus booster shot definitely helps!

How?

DON’T ASK ANY QUESTIONS. JUST COMPLY!

Yes...they seem to be panicking. That is a good thing! The internet never forgets...like the computer in the movie Demon Seed.

Hi.

I heard Ginger Goebbels mentioned this Sunday.

Doesn’t this time frame conflict with the AOC (Occasional Cortex) time frame?

Yes Sandy, the climate will change and there’s nothing anyone can do about it.

Crack down on all those wealthy leaders. They’re the ones to blame, not us little serfs. You’d need a magnifying glass to see my carbon footprint compared to anyone in the UN.

We are provided no evidence of man-made global warming in this article, which is so typical of what we read.

Turn a blank sheet of paper sideways. On the left side write “weather event” in small letters, draw a circle around the words, and then draw a small arrow pointing to the right side of the paper. On the far right, write the words ‘man made global warming” in small letters, draw a circle around the words, and then draw a small arrow pointing to the circle with those words.

Now is there not a large amount of blank space in the middle? How often do you see a story which fills in this area? How often do words like sun and ocean appear?

The US will be bankrupt before Obama’s water front estates are flooded.

Question: Why did they change the movement’s goal from preventing “global warming” to preventing “climate change”?
Answer: Because global average temperatures have actually declined since 2009.

No one doubts the fact that atmospheric CO2 has some effect on surface temperatures. The point is that it is insignificant compared to other factors like water vapor, solar cycles, and Earth’s axis tilt. The predictions of temperature increases based on computer models have all been wildly wrong because the atmosphere is a non-linear coupled system (chaotic) and our predictions are worthless at this point. Apocalyptic environmentalism is religion, not science.

My fave: "look now because this glacier will be melted by 2020"...

GLACIER NATIONAL PARK — Glacier National Park is removing signs that state all glaciers will be melted by 2020.

(Because NONE of them melted)
