Is climate change going to collapse civilization as we know it?

Is it bullshit or not anons?
Weathers getting warmer than usual
Kind of starting to spook me
Kind of terrified
Lots of you think it's fake
Lots of you think it's real

    earth is a closed system. we make changes to this system, and the system itself makes changes naturally too. the climate therefore changes. anyone who tells you climate change isn't real is moronic.

    we're kinda fricked as far as i figure, but most of us should be alright.

      the truth is that it’s already happening, it just hasn’t happened to you, yet.

      the earth is a massive and complex organism, it’s in constant motion around the sun, its outer layers in constant motion around the iron core, it’s got sprawling biomes, all of these things create natural zones of Earth that have more or less sensitive ecosystems. the reality is that every ecosystem on Earth is sensitive in some respect, but only certain ones are especially sensitive to heating (this is why you keep hearing about temperatures in the arctic, the arctic is a very bad place for heating). more and more often, if you care to watch the news, you’ll see the increased incidence of heat related disasters; ppl dying from exposure, dehydration, heat stroke, further down the news page you’ll see lakes and other natural aquifers dry up, snow pack disappear, and crop collapse. this stuff has been happening in Central and South America and Africa for decades. what’s different today is that back in the 90s all the experts were basically saying
      >third world countries are fricked, but developed nations will weather the effect
      and if they meant that honestly in any way, what they meant by
      >developed nations
      was strictly the ruling class of those nations, because most developed countries resemble third world countries for the poor and working class, and we’ve watched countless examples of massive governments failing to a goddamn thing to help dying ppl. I’m a burgerclap, so I know more about US stories than any Euro country, but just look at Flynt, look at Katrina, Puerto Rico, shit just look at what COVID did. not even that disruptive compared to what a clathrate gun might do to life on the planet, yet it ground the entire global economy to a near-halt.

      just wait. it’s happening all over, eventually it’ll get to you, and guess what? you’re still gonna clock in for work that day, wagie. so am I. so are we all. until we take the fight to the top.

      Also the climate has been warming since the end of the last ice age, 10,000 years or so of a steady increase. Humans have sped up that process.

      Here's the thing. Even if humans didn't exist, the planet would still be warming, it would just take longer to get where we are. I don't think cutting carbon emissions alone will work. We need to think bigger. Desalinate ocean water and pump it into the growing deserts, shift energy sources, vertical farming in skyscrapers etc

          This is fricking nonsense. If anything wipes out the biosphere and turns this planet into a fricking wasteland it will be overpopulation and the absurd level of death brought to the natural environment caused by the agriculture required to sustain an infinitely growing human population. Why do I think this? Because it's what's happening now. Global warming isn't even in the top 5 threats to this planet.

                plus all the non-muslim chinese citizens China is killing.

                Each chinaman is required by the government to have a cellphone, for tracking purposes and "social credit scores". Over 25-30 million disappeared in 2020 alone.

                China is killing tens of millions of people that disagree with the China government.

                Just look at the videos of China rounding up cats/dogs and other pets and what they do to them.

                China government is much worse than Hitler and the Holocaust by orders of magnitude, yet the media is ignoring the Chinese Holocaust right now, since it would take away the israelites thunder from a century ago.

          become a dictator. democracy is a failure. those with titles of absolute power accomplish wonders because they’re able to focus the entire nation into one direction. if it’s a good king, emperor, or dictator, then it results in wondrous accomplishments. if it’s a bad one, then there’s atrocities. sometimes you get a mixture of both (see WWII). the best way to ensure good, emotionally healthy leadership would be to raise people from a young age to be stewards of the land and if their people; they understand a great deal of their peoples’ needs and wants, they live as one with them.

          >We would be slowly cooling over thousands of years into the next glacial period.

          Ice ages only started with the rise of man as a species.

          Humans burn wood, creating soot, which blocks the sun and cools the planet.

          That is what caused the ice ages, because ancient man would set forest fires and grass fires to scare game off cliffs to eat.

          Once humans learned to make better weapons, so creating massive fires (that would get out of control and burn entire regions) to hunt was a thing of the past, so the last ice age ended.

          The "mini-ice" age in the 1700-1800s was created by the discovery of burning coal, so massive amounts were used for everyday heating and cooking, causing a mini-ice age.

          "Climate Change" is just a politically motivated scam to raise petrol prices on the masses.

          The higher that the rich 1% can get gas prices, via "climate change" scare-mongering, the richer and more powerful the 1% get.

          The 1% elite push "climate change" as a means to force people off individual vehicular transportation, so they are more dependent on the government (aka 1% elite that control government.)

            Wrong again, moron. They start when continental drift blocks the flow of warm water to the poles. They occurred several times before man existed.

            >That is what caused the ice ages

            It never ended, there's still ice at the poles, moron. You're talking about glacial periods, they're caused by Earth's orbital eccentricity. Dumbfrick.

    the truth is that it’s already happening, it just hasn’t happened to you, yet.

    the earth is a massive and complex organism, it’s in constant motion around the sun, its outer layers in constant motion around the iron core, it’s got sprawling biomes, all of these things create natural zones of Earth that have more or less sensitive ecosystems. the reality is that every ecosystem on Earth is sensitive in some respect, but only certain ones are especially sensitive to heating (this is why you keep hearing about temperatures in the arctic, the arctic is a very bad place for heating). more and more often, if you care to watch the news, you’ll see the increased incidence of heat related disasters; ppl dying from exposure, dehydration, heat stroke, further down the news page you’ll see lakes and other natural aquifers dry up, snow pack disappear, and crop collapse. this stuff has been happening in Central and South America and Africa for decades. what’s different today is that back in the 90s all the experts were basically saying
    >third world countries are fricked, but developed nations will weather the effect
    and if they meant that honestly in any way, what they meant by
    >developed nations
    was strictly the ruling class of those nations, because most developed countries resemble third world countries for the poor and working class, and we’ve watched countless examples of massive governments failing to a goddamn thing to help dying ppl. I’m a burgerclap, so I know more about US stories than any Euro country, but just look at Flynt, look at Katrina, Puerto Rico, shit just look at what COVID did. not even that disruptive compared to what a clathrate gun might do to life on the planet, yet it ground the entire global economy to a near-halt.

    just wait. it’s happening all over, eventually it’ll get to you, and guess what? you’re still gonna clock in for work that day, wagie. so am I. so are we all. until we take the fight to the top.

        Correct. The Earth still needs to warm up further to benefit life.

        Cold is bad. Global warming is good, as the planet is still in the "ice age" period and much colder than normal temperatures of the past 2 Billion years.

          Dude you have no idea how, why and from where the refugees are coming, in extreme situation of economic downturn, food and petroleum shortage, most of these people won't be able to migrate, and even if they do, majority of them will die (huger, accident, disease) or get killed (looted, raped) on their way.

          For starters you have to understand that Black folks in Subsharan Africa still can't build a ship, they aren't going anywhere, they can't even grow their food, in a situation of global food shortage - which is basically on the horizon, they will simply starve to death.

          Let me give you a recent example, during peak covid - lockdown, majority of refugees were leaving Europe, they were going back to North Africa. Economic situation in Europe is going to get a lot worse, literal turd world tier impoverishment is on its way.

    some animals will thrive with the coming changes, some animals will suffer and some will go completely extinct. sea urchins are an example of a species thriving, corals are an example suffering. humans are currently thriving, and will likely continue to thrive as we continue to advance technologically. we will likely see some increased incidence of illness from things like microplastics and air pollutants, but in general life expectancy will probably continue to increase as medical science progresses and economic prosperity spreads.

    Having the entire world under the control of one government......... then when that government fricks up, which all governments eventually do, the entire world collapses.

    Mmmmmmmmm depends on how bad it gets and what governments do to react to it. If we get 1 and a half increase then it will frickikg suck to live anywhere near the equator. That's india and Pakistan and Mexico and Central America and Central Africa. I'm talking about 120 degrees and famines and no water and massive migrations. It will probably cause the collapse of those states. But, any country below and above the equator will suffer but nearly as bad. Now due governments stop the increase at 1 Anda half? Great. If it gets worse it will obviously get worse for every ody. Due those safer countries allow millions to migrate to them? Probably the end of those countries.

    Don't be. Civilization will collapse returning humanity to the natural state. Humans will return to the time before civilization. The transition to civilization was quite negative to everyone involved. Both the individual, the natural world, and even the group as a whole all suffer for it.
    Hunter-gatherers lived long, happy, healthy, and meaningful lives. They 'worked' very few hours in a week, and the work they did was inherently enjoyable, fun, and playful. They organized in groups that highly valued autonomy rather than dominance, egalitarianism rather than hierarchy, and equality rather than division. Moreover, they were sustainable and ecologically beneficial, persisting for 200,000+ years as homosexual Sapiens and 3,000,000 as ancestor hominids, versus a mere 10,000 for civilization and ~300 for industrial modernity. They are nomadic, without permanent settlement, band-society, without rigid organizational structure, immediate-return, existing within the bounds of the ecosystem rather than exploiting it to accumulate surplus. They live in groups that are constantly subject to a fission-fusion system of coming together and then breaking down into smaller groups over time, distance, and season, but tend to stay within Dunbar's number of between 50 and 150 people.

            Its extremely plausible. Feel bad for all the people hitting age 60 around then. Life is going to really suck. Retirement is not going to be comfortable.

                Depends on where you live. Canada, Siberia Iceland, New Zealand. Parts of South America. You will be fine. Relatively.

            Every single person whose job it is to know about this stuff says we are fricked, and has been saying the same thing SINCE the 1980s and even before. There's very little reason to believe they would mislead us as despite drooling morons on the internet insisting they say this for their own personal benefit it is obviously far more profitable for the wealthy to lie and say that climate change is not real so they can continue to pocket the profit from environmentally destructive industries and policies.

          There will be a mass exodus of the third world to temperate countries. On a level that makes previous immigration look like non-event.

        >how long before collapse sets
        Depends what people do.
        For example ME has dried up since the '90s, but Iraq and Syria experienced the worst faster than necessary - the reason being that the upstream Turkey built dozens of dams to keep its agriculture going.
        Something similar is going to happen with Indus river, between India and Pakistan. Difference is both countries have nuclear bombs.
        The '30s news will be interesting.

          Why?

            Because it is fake. Nothing they ever taught you is true is true. Older people blatantly have a quarter of the wisdom as people like me. They don't really exist like normal. Even family seem to be half real. Like there is someone real I am talking to but definitely this whole world is a fake matrix. They tell you it is 40 more years of this or death because they are abusive. I give them 5 more years at the rate things are falling apart. Basically none of their big narratives hold any weight anymore. Can't really expect to keep the show going with this momentum.

              Does this scare you? Maybe I'm a pussy but I can't cope. I feel like I'm being driven to suicide by fear.

                It kinda scared me at first. That was because they told me death is the only escape. It's a pretty natural reaction to abuse. At this point it's not that scary. It is pretty sad but that also describes my entire life. If anything this revelation is more uplifting because the future really has the potential to be amazing. Everything could change for the better more quickly than you expect. And I mean aaaaall the way not half assed like they tried to sell us.

                I hope you're right anon. It's silly but I'm just so terrified at all hours. I just want to stop being scared.

                I know what you mean. I think you slowly become numb to it all. Still get scared of things plenty but I am not as scared of their lies anymore.

    maybe, but it would have eventually done so anyway even if humans had no influence on it. the polar ice caps would eventually melt and global temperatures would rise, it just might be much further in the future.
    so, we just go extinct a little sooner than the latest possible time.

      based.
      worrying about the climate changing is like worrying about the mountains eroding away.

      Humans will be long extinct millions of years before either happens.
