and Lemmy users are smart with tech and stupid with everything else

Well, that's me fucked, where too now ?

Surely thats your own lemmy instance ? other instances can federate or defederate as they want (or piefed)

Indeed but where to go? 20 years aho I was looking around the world hopefully but all I saw then were shit holes with little in common with my ethics. Similarly today it's all I see :(

Haha thanks i thought bio as in biological as in human, not a sex doll.

Makes much more sense now ;) /s

Lived there for two years with my parter and loved it.

 

For the last three years, Wilson has been researching and writing a book on systems collapse, the first chapter of which is called Hope – about “how there is no hope, and we need to face this”.

Well,.yes :) as Nathan Rees opined, all we can do is endure

I thought tbis interesting

Wilson moved to Paris two years ago on an artist’s visa to work on her book. The topic of collapsology is one the French are “really on top of” – collapse experts there do morning TV, and books on the subject top bestseller charts, making it a more fitting place to get to work than Sydney. “It’s a topic that I would say Australians are just not alive to yet,” she sighs.

 

While this article is not tied to collpase per se, this excert.from Peggy is on point.

Mods can delete it if they think its too far off topic but we're not exacrly swamped with posts jere.

Climate change is going to cull us as a species. There won’t be any big bands and we won’t have any producers of guitar strings, so we’re going to have to rely on our own voices and make instruments out of whatever we can find. But we’ll always need music that expresses the hopes and dreams of the community.

 

Toxic pollution from wildfires has infiltrated the homes of more than a billion people a year over the last two decades, according to new research.

The climate crisis is driving up the risk of wildfires by increasing heatwaves and droughts, making the issue of wildfire smoke a “pressing global issue”, scientists said

The tiny particles produced by wildfires can travel thousands of miles and are known to be more toxic than urban air pollution, due to higher concentrations of chemicals that cause inflammation. Wildfire pollution has been linked to early deaths, worsened heart and breathing diseases and premature births..

What a debacle :(

 

We can't be in this situation where every couple of years we're facing crisis levels and people are scrambling," Berggren said. "It reinforces the need for a more robust, long-term and resilient set of guidelines for managing the river."

But that does seem the plan :)

 

"If everyone had emitted like the bottom 50% of the global population, the world would have seen minimal additional warming since 1990,"

The study assesses the contribution of the highest emitting groups within societies and finds that the top 1% of the wealthiest individuals globally contributed 26 times the global average to increases in monthly 1-in-100-year heat extremes globally and 17 times more to Amazon droughts.

The research sheds new light on the links between income-based emissions inequality and climate injustice, illustrating how the consumption and investments of wealthy individuals have had disproportionate impacts on extreme weather events

Our study shows that extreme climate impacts are not just the result of abstract global emissions, instead we can directly link them to our lifestyle and investment choices, which in turn are linked to wealth,"

What was once considered rare has become alarmingly common, as climate change accelerates the frequency and severity of such events,” said an editorial in the Pakistani newspaper Dawn. The country “remains woefully unprepared for the escalating climate crisis”, it said.

 

The vast Anthropocene reshaping of the planet that is now under way extends to water as well as land. The Three Gorges dam project on the Yangtze River in China impounds so much water that it has measurably slowed the rotation speed of the Earth. Oil extraction from the Alberta tar sands uses more than 200bn litres of fresh water a year: this is abstracted from the Athabasca River, rendered toxic – and then injected back into aquifers by way of “disposal”. Europe has the most obstructed river system of any continent, with more than 1m barriers fragmenting flow and only a handful of free-running waterways remaining.

It has long been in the interests of power to deem nature dead, in preparation for its extraction, conversion and consumption. This systematic de-animation process has been accelerated to calamity speed by the new US administration. Trump’s inaugural address was obsessively focused on “land”; his speech a bingo card of 19th-century settler-Christian tropes glorifying first the subjugation then exploitation of the continent’s “resources”, natural and human: manifest destiny, the “untamed wilderness”, the “frontier hypothesis”. At his Senate confirmation hearing, Doug Burgum – the new interior secretary – described public lands and waters as “America’s balance sheet”, which he would “unleash” for “economic activity

 

Multiple climate "tipping points" are likely to be triggered if global policies stay on their current course, new research shows.

Scientists assessed the risk of "tipping" in 16 different parts of the Earth system -- ranging from the collapse of major ice sheets to the dieback of tropical coral reefs and vast forests.

Nothing much new for this paying attention, just more reinforcement

 

The world’s coral reefs have been pushed into “uncharted territory” by the worst global bleaching event on record that has now hit more than 80% of the planet’s reefs, scientists have warned.

Reefs in at least 82 countries and territories have been exposed to enough heat to turn corals white since the global event started in January 2023, the latest data from the US government’s Coral Reef Watch shows.

Coral reefs are known as the rainforests of the sea because of their high concentration of biodiversity that supports about a third of all marine species and a billion people.

I wonder what's causing that /s

Not sure what the thing is with the federal LNP seat? Qld just voted in a majority LNP state Government and kicked the few Greens that were in parliament, safe to say they don't really give a care about the reef, to be fair that's the same as most of Australia and much of the world.

Ironically the new QLD LNP government has been dealing non stop with climate change enhanced disasters since they came to power, Leopards literally eating voters faces I guess ?

The Great Barrier Reef is suffering its second bleaching event in as many years, with the marine park authority reporting corals in distress due to an underwater heatwave stretching 1300 kilometres from Townsville to Cooktown.

Mass coral bleaching has occurred on the Great Barrier Reef in 1998, 2002, 2016, 2017, 2020, 2022, 2024 and now 2025

Sobering to remember the first every recorded mass bleaching was only back in 1998, nothing before that, voters literately making it worse every election is a wired thing to witness.
