Discussion of climate, how it is changing, activism around that, the politics, and the energy systems change we need in order to stabilize things.

As a starting point, the burning of fossil fuels, and to a lesser extent deforestation and release of methane are responsible for the warming in recent decades: Graph of temperature as observed with significant warming, and simulated without added greenhouse gases and other anthropogentic changes, which shows no significant warming

How much each change to the atmosphere has warmed the world: IPCC AR6 Figure 2 - Thee bar charts: first chart: how much each gas has warmed the world. About 1C of total warming. Second chart: about 1.5C of total warming from well-mixed greenhouse gases, offset by 0.4C of cooling from aerosols and negligible influence from changes to solar output, volcanoes, and internal variability. Third chart: about 1.25C of warming from CO2, 0.5C from methane, and a bunch more in small quantities from other gases. About 0.5C of cooling with large error bars from SO2.

Recommended actions to cut greenhouse gas emissions in the near future:

Anti-science, inactivism, and unsupported conspiracy theories are not ok here.

Paywalled. :(

The Guardian doesn't have a paywall. They do have a 'tell us your email' pop-over that you can dismiss without giving them your email.

Very weird. I am not able to dismiss the pop-up request for money that covers the entire page. There is no option to bypass or dismiss this pop-up on my screen. I am on Firefox with uBlock on Android, btw.

Tried with firefox + ublock origin on Android, and the pop-up has an 'x' on the top right, I touch to make it go away.

There is no X on mine, unfortunately.

I am using Adguard, side load paid version, and haven't had any issues. Maybe try turning desktop mode on or off? Unfortunately, I don't use Firefox, so I don't know how it works. Does it have a "simplified reader" view? Clear cache/cookies?
