So what of the IPCC conference (“this week, hundreds of scientists and government officials from more than 190 countries have been buzzing around a convention centre in the South Korean city of Incheon”) – https://www.theguardian.com/environment/planet-oz/2018/oct/06/earths-climate-monsters-could-be-unleashed-as-temperatures-rise)
Why isn’t it streaming live onto screens in the streets and schools? This is major and yet nothing. No attention on it. Kids need to see this so that when they ask us what we did now about this mess in 10 years time we can look them in the eye and say, “well, nothing…”
Listen to the guy, no one of any importance is at the conference. No one is taking this seriously. Says it all folks. They are calling it “runaway climate change.” Just think about that for a moment.

Succinct comment from the link?
“Near-term human extinction due to abrupt, anthropogenic climate collapse is assured, quantifiable, verifiable and exponential. Sorry folks! No adaptation or mitigation in the very limited time frame. Next year will be worse (thanks to El Nino). Crop failures and starvation, water shortage and thirst, these are in store for most of us. Add in a few wildfires, a few million refugees, a few wars and economic and political collapse and well you get the picture. Put plainly, we are comprehensively and certainly fucked and no timid commentating morons will stop it.” (Donald McCarthy)
Does this astringent comment spur us into some thought, some action or do we once again roll over and ignore such OTT outbursts, it’s Saturday after all…

The Westminster Briefing
Presentation 1:
An Introduction to Climate Dynamics
David Wasdell
“This opening presentation provides a generalised introduction to climate dynamics and to the system of feedback mechanisms within it.
The system tends towards thermal equilibrium
Figure 1.1
We begin by viewing the earth hanging in space as a “hot black body” giving out infra -red radiation through its mantle of the atmosphere, and receiving energy from solar input.
It achieves a stable surface temperature with radiation just balancing inputs of energy from outside the system. That is what we would call climate in an equilibrium state…”
Let’s raise our consciousness.
