As you can see, we are adding more carbon into the atmosphere from the global burning of fossil fuels each year. According to the immutable laws of physics, this means ever-rising temperatures will resolutely follow every rise in atmospheric carbon.

But, worse yet, we are also adding more carbon to the atmosphere at faster and faster rates! (The dotted line in the graph above is getting steeper and increasing incrementally each year. This steepening line on the chart indicates we are adding more carbon to the atmosphere at faster and faster rates.)

To make our government's utter failure even more apparent:

In the 1960s, we only added about 0.5 carbon parts per million (ppm) to the atmosphere each year. 

In the 1970s, we added about 1.3 carbon ppm per year. 

In the 1980s and 1990s, we added about 1.5 carbon ppm per year. 

In the 2000s, we added about 2.0 carbon ppm per year. 

In the 2010s, we added about 2.4 carbon ppm per year. 

Over the 2020s, we have added about 2.7 carbon ppm per year. And,

We now add about three carbon ppm (or more) each year. 

The graph below is essential because it illuminates on its right side how we have shockingly increased our annual rate of atmospheric carbon pollution by almost six times (if you also include what has happened in the 2020s). 

Our rapid global annual carbon increase above also means that we have failed to reduce global fossil fuel consumption for over six decades and have radically increased our atmosphere's yearly fossil fuel pollution! 

The graph below also painfully shows the annual increases in carbon (CO2) entering our atmosphere and our global governments' utter failure to reduce global fossil fuel use over the last six decades. (The graph measures gigatons of carbon pollution entering our atmosphere. A gigaton is 1,000,000,000 tonnes.)

This is the state of our past global fossil fuel reduction efforts, and you will not hear many publicly speaking this horrible truth.

We must now face the reality that we have utterly failed to control the accelerating global warming nightmare. This failure is despite the many international conferences, treaties, reduction agreements, warnings, new climate policies, new climate laws, and the actions of thousands of global NGOs and environmental groups that have been educating for decades about the extinction dangers of accelerating global warming. 

This authentic, gigantic, and well-hidden failure exists despite all contrary media or other climate reporting by those with hidden or vested financial interests in the fossil fuel industry.

Look again above at science's most accurate carbon measurement of our total reductions in global fossil fuel use, and you will see the precise measure of our government's effectiveness in reducing escalating global heating. We have unequivocally failed to manage humanity's single greatest short-term threat (other than immediate global thermo-nuclear war.)

We will not be safe from runaway global warming and extinction until our governments get atmospheric carbon levels again at or below the carbon 350 ppm level.

Yes, this vast and continuous governmental climate management failure is tough to deal with, but to begin taking the correct climate path out of this mess, one must know honestly from where they are starting. An informed society that does not know where it currently is with its climate management progress will also not have the necessary urgency or focus to fix it.

Just in case you still believe your governments have been protecting you from the accelerating consequences of global warming caused by burning more fossil fuels, here is a graph showing all three major fossil fuel-related greenhouse gases: carbon (CO2), methane (CH4), and Nitrogen Oxide (N2O).

Why the IPCC’s runaway global heating underestimation problem is critical to you, your business, and your nation’s future

Conflicts of interest and the IPCC’s gross underestimation problem

Our challenge to any worldwide climate scientist or climate researcher

Again, be sure also to read this essential explanation of the Climageddon Feedback Loop. It describes what 90% of climate change researchers still do not fully understand or account for in their forecasts and projections. The Climageddon Feedback Loop is an even more detailed explanation of the tipping point and feedback loop problem with critical specifics that need to be corrected for our future survival.

6. The IPCC has been selling a net-zero pledge program that can not and will not save us in time from near-total extinction. It does this because it somehow still can't tell the world, even that at this point, and after 60 years of ignoring warnings and not reducing fossil fuel use when the reductions could have been easier and gradual, that we must now reduce total global fossil fuel use close to 75% by 2025 or we will lose most of humanity.

Effectively and radically reducing global fossil fuel use in all developed countries by 2025 to meet the 2025 targets is not the ineffective and deceptive net-zero emissions by 2030, 2040, 2050, or 2060 target pledges you hear all over the media and from our governments. These net-zero emission schemes cannot scale up fast enough to save us from mass to near-total extinction.

Please see this page for the science behind why these future net-zero emission IPCC-derived pledges are illusions that steal the absolute urgency of this emergency from the minds of the world's population and will not work in time to save humanity. Discover why you and your children will pay a very steep price for the false and illusionary IPCC net-zero runaway global heating solution and these currently mostly impotent national pledges.

7. Click here to see the IPCC's atmospheric methane calculation problems. This, again, dramatically reduces the reliability and usefulness of the IPCC's climate prediction and remedy work.

After you have read the above link, here are a few additional underestimations and errors in the IPCC's methane calculations:

1. Methane is increasing very fast, and it is not all animal agriculture or fossil fuels. However, none of the current fossil fuel reduction targets include calculations of the many significant sources of amplifying methane feedbacks nor a decline in natural carbon sinks.

2. Today, all global wetlands are pouring out feedback methane emissions. Tropical forests (Amazon and central Africa) also pour out CO2, reducing their land carbon sink abilities. The Oceans are also not included in IPCC projections except to assume incorrectly that the ocean as a carbon sink will continue taking in carbon as it is currently.

3. The IPCC still uses the policy deferred methane global warming potential (GWP) of 25X CO2 over 100 years. The IPCC gives a 20-year methane GWP of 86 but uses it. Methane emissions last 10-15 years. Because methane is constantly emitted, the period that the IPCC should use is methane GWP 100.

8: The IPCC also does not adequately include the critical and increasing decline in carbon sinks in its current computer modeling. The condition of our global carbon sinks is vital to our future survival. 

As global warming rises, the oceans, soils, and forests remove less carbon from the atmosphere. But when they reach their internal tipping points, they reverse the good they were doing and start releasing the carbon they have removed and stored back into the atmosphere.

The article starts with the 2021 COP26 conference in Glasgow, Scotland.

Additional reasons for our 60 years of failure in reducing fossil fuel use and runaway global heating

1. The world's population has been subjected to a massive fossil fuel industry-sponsored disinformation and misinformation program. It makes the cigarette companies’ former disinformation and misinformation programs telling the public their products would not cause any harm to look like child's play. 

Billions of dollars have been spent through the media, bogus think tanks, and bogus studies to present "evidence" that runaway global heating is not real, or that any real harm won't show up until after 2100, or a host of other falsehoods that serve a single purpose. Their intent is to create doubt about the legitimacy of the problem, which paralyzes necessary action and removes any urgency toward solving the problem. If you'd like to see how far the fossil fuel companies will go to stop or slow the real fossil fuel usage reductions we need to make, click here.

2. Our cost-to-benefit studies do not account for the cost of runaway global heating inaction. Its latest report, Fatal Calculations, takes aim at economists for failing to adequately account for the costs of inaction in their models, which in turn has been used by politicians to delay action.

“Despite the escalating climate disasters globally, not least our fires, this preoccupation with the cost of action — and a blind eye turned to overwhelming future damage — remains the dominant thinking within politics, business, and finance,” the Breakthrough report found.

“Because climate change is now an existential threat to human society, risk management and the calculation of potential future damages must pay disproportionate attention to the high-end, extreme possibilities, rather than focus on middle-of-the-spectrum probabilities.”

In a discussion paper released in May, titled COVID-19 climate lessons, Breakthrough draws parallels between climate change and the lack of preparedness for the pandemic.

“The world is sleepwalking towards disaster. The UN climate science and policymaking institutions are not fit-for-purpose and have never examined or reported on the existential risks,” the paper reads.

“There are no national or global processes to ensure that such risk assessments are undertaken and are efficacious. The World Economic Forum reports on high-end global risks, including climate disruption, once a year, and then everybody goes back to ignoring the real risks.”

We strongly recommend watching this video by Peter Carter (an advisor to Job One). It covers the history of the IPCC, its many conferences, and global fossil fuel reduction failures.

3. Here are 30 + additional and compelling contributing reasons for why we have failed to resolve the runaway global heating crisis over the last 60 years, but a major reason lies within the data we've been given and the organization trusted to give us that data. These additional reasons are fully discussed on this page.

4. Click here for the very deepest, seldom discussed reasons for our change emergency, which has not been resolved for over 60 years.

5. Climate change researchers worldwide have failed to learn and apply the latest analysis technology breakthroughs. Dialectical Metasystemic Thinking is this new methodology for analyzing complex adaptive systems like the climate.

This is a major flaw in current climate change analysis and research because current-level rational, analytical methodologies are grossly insufficient to compensate for the high complexity found in complex adaptive systems like the climate, the economy, political systems, ecological systems, etc.

Dialectical Metasystemic Thinking is very, very challenging to learn. Still, it allows the researcher or analyst to see any single moment in transition within the climate system or its sub-systems from 28 unique perspectives that radically change the researcher's understanding of the interconnections, interdependencies, relationships, contexts, processes, and transformations occurring within the complex adaptive systems of the climate system and its subsystems. 

Only one organization (Job One for Humanity) has climate researchers and analysts trained in this new significant data analysis methodology. Click here to learn more about this breakthrough new methodology called Dialectical Metasystemic Thinking.

The public has been grossly and systemically misinformed about the actual condition of the runaway global heating extinction emergency

The general public has no idea how bad it will get or how soon that will happen. The public also has no idea what the real global fossil fuel reduction targets must be, and they do not fully realize they are already unsafe and at extreme climate extinction risk.

The unfortunate, widespread, and gross misinformation given to the public about how bad runaway global heating is currently will become and that it is now almost out of control has occurred in significant part because of:

The 60-year continuous and well-funded disinformation program of the fossil fuel industry. 

Major miscalculations, errors, and gross underestimations from the IPCC, the world’s leading global warming authority, by about 30-60% or more concerning how fast and severe the consequences of runaway global heating will be. 

Continuously failing to slow or reverse runaway global heating effectively. This is despite 60 years of loud and detailed warnings by credible climate scientists, verified scientific research, and 26 international conferences on how to solve the runaway global heating crisis.

We have crossed too many known and unknown important runaway global heating tipping points over the last 30+ years within our climate systems and subsystems that the public still does not know about. This tipping point crossing process invariably locks us into crossing even more dangerous known and unknown runaway global heating tipping points at faster and faster rates, which once again spikes up average global temperature far beyond what has been predicted by our global warming authorities. After we hit carbon 500 ppm, which is currently inescapable, we will hit carbon 600 ppm, which will most probably trigger a massive release of methane from the methane clathrate crystals found on the coastal ocean shelves, and that will trigger another enormous temperature increase and the end of civilization in a massive extinction event, exactly as it has happened before.

Unconscionable groupthink illusions and delusions used and held by our global warming authorities at the Climate Conferences concerning possibilities of currently nonexistent atmospheric carbon removal and other new technologies, which may or may not be discovered and successfully implemented until sometime after 2050!

The complexity of the global climate: the massive number of interconnections, interactions, interdependencies, tipping points, and nonlinear reactions within the climate's many complex adaptive systems and subsystems, making the big picture crisis of falling into irreversible runaway global heating invisible to all but a few scientists and prominent data analysts capable of processing such massive data complexity.

We are now trapped by the reality of the minimum time needed to convert all global fossil fuel energy generation systems into green energy generation systems (currently over 100 years and probably much more). This means carbon in the atmosphere will reach carbon 500 ppm, where all ice and glaciers will begin and continue melting.

Illustrating the IPCC's underestimation

(The graphs below will help you visualize what the IPCC gross underestimation errors mean in various time frames and scenarios.)

The previously mentioned underestimation problems with the IPCC are not even its worst runaway global heating data integrity problem. It also has a problem with its runaway global heating tipping point and climate feedback education and disclosure scenarios.

To fully appreciate how critical that fatal flaw is, it is necessary to review a bit of basic logic. There is a principle in logic that if all or a significant part of the foundational premise upon which you build a theory or solution is insufficient or false, the consequent theory or solution created will also be deficient or false either in total or to a significant degree.

Keep this principle of logic in mind as there is a giant data analysis fatal flaw in the premise upon which the IPCC builds its global warming risk analysis for its global warming consequence prediction scenarios and timetables. To many individuals who are well-informed about global warming, this lack of cognizance by the IPCC about this second tipping point and climate feedback issue is seen as the one fatal flaw that will most quickly force us unknowingly into the later phases of the new Climageddon Scenario global warming prediction model.

Let’s review the four newest runaway global heating prediction scenarios provided in 2014 by the IPCC to the world’s politicians and policymakers. It will provide foundational evidence for the biggest flaw in the IPCC’s global warming risk analysis process and consequence prediction scenarios. 

The following four IPCC global warming prediction scenarios are based on the assumption that we have no major climate system surprises, such as going over more global warming tipping points. Those predictions are:

Scenario One: Global warming will increase by only 2° Celsius (3.6° degrees Fahrenheit) by 2100, according to the most optimistic projections. 

Scenario Two: According to a more likely projection, global warming will increase by 3° Celsius by 2100 (5.4° degrees Fahrenheit). 

Scenario Three: According to the less optimistic IPCC projections, global warming will only increase by 4° Celsius by 2100 (7.2° degrees Fahrenheit). 

Scenario Four: At the least optimistic of IPCC projections, global warming is a 6° or more Celsius increase by 2100 (10.8°+ degrees Fahrenheit).

 

This graph shows four different trajectories for greenhouse gas concentrations. These representative concentration pathways (RCPs) show four potential climate futures. The lowest pathway, RCP2.6 (the bold blue line), shows an average global temperature increase of 1° Celsius. The highest pathway, RCP8.5, shows an average rise of 2.0° to 3.7° Celsius. Source: IPCC, 2013, FAQ 12.1, Figure 1.  (8)

 

From each of the four IPCC prediction scenarios, what is missing and what has been unwisely omitted is the essential inclusion of tipping point calculations. The IPCC’s four prediction scenarios assume we will never go over any global warming tipping points in any of the climate’s major or minor systems or subsystems. 

Planning for everything to go perfectly is the perfect plan for failure!

In effect, what the IPCC has done is to all but remove or ignore high-impact, often unrecoverable global warming, climate, human, and biological system tipping point variables that should have been included in an accurate and complete risk spectrum analysis. Without including and considering these critical high-impact tipping point consequence events in their master risk analysis, the IPCC has not met the minimum essential data inclusion threshold necessary to create a valid and complete global warming risk analysis that could be used to properly inform our politicians and policymakers, as well as the general public, of all real and significant current and future risks and timetables their nations and people face.

 

 

 

Correcting the underestimation in the current IPCC future average global temperature projections 

It is helpful to update the IPCC’s four most recent 2014 average global temperature and time frame predictions (listed previously) while compensating for their regular underestimations of about 25-40%. Please remember that the IPCC’s 2014 prediction scenarios do not include any calculations or adjustments for crossing more global warming tipping points or feedback loops during their prediction scenario periods. 

Here is what the IPCC’s temperature and arrival date estimates might look like if their underestimation bias were corrected: 

IPCC Scenario 1, their most optimistic projection, says we will have only a 2° Celsius increase by 2100 (3.6° Fahrenheit). (Please note that in all four graphs below, CS stands for Climageddon Scenario, and the 25% and 40% are underestimation correction levels for the 4 IPCC prediction levels.)

At the 25% underestimation level, we will reach 2.5° Celsius (4.5° Fahrenheit) about 21 years sooner than they predict will occur—at about 2079. This puts us in the latter part of Phase 1 of the Climageddon Scenario or, more likely, at the beginning of Phase 2.

 

 

At the 40% underestimation level, we will reach 2.9° Celsius (5.2°+ Fahrenheit) roughly 34 years sooner than they predict—at about 2066. This puts us somewhere within Phase 2 of the Climageddon Scenario.  

In IPCC Scenario 2, their more likely projection is that we will have only a 3° Celsius increase of 2100 (5.4°Fahrenheit). 

At the 25% underestimation level, this means we will reach 3.5° Celsius (6.9° Fahrenheit) about 21 years sooner than they predict—in about 2079. This puts us in or near Phase 3 of the Climageddon Scenario.  

At the 40% underestimation level, we will reach 4.2° Celsius (7.5° Fahrenheit) about 34 years sooner than they predict—in about 2066. This puts us in or near Phase 4 of the Climageddon Scenario.  

 

 

 

In IPCC Scenario 3, their less optimistic projection, they say we will have only a 4° Celsius increase by 2100 (7.2°+ Fahrenheit). 

At the 25% underestimation level, we will reach 5° Celsius (about 9° Fahrenheit) 21 years sooner than they predict—at about 2079. This puts us in or near the chaos and collapse of Phase 5 of the Climageddon Scenario.  

At the 40% underestimation level, we will reach 5.6° Celsius (10° Fahrenheit) 34 years sooner than they predict—at about 2066. This also puts us in or closer to phase 5 of the Climageddon Scenario.

 

 

 

IPCC Scenario 4, their least optimistic projection, says we will have only a 6° Celsius or more increase in average global temperature by 2100 (10.8°+ Fahrenheit). A 6° Celsius increase in average global temperature would end most human life as we know it.

At the 25% underestimation level, we will reach 7.8° Celsius (about 13.5° Fahrenheit) at about 2079. This will put us well into Phase 5 of the Climageddon Scenario.  

At the 40% underestimation level, we will reach 8.4° Celsius (about 15° Fahrenheit) —at about 2066. This could put us in Phase 5 of the Climageddon Scenario faster than anyone is ready.

 

 

 

(Please note: In the four corrected IPCC graphs above, we use recalculated temperature estimates to extrapolate approximate placement positions for the graph’s new projected timelines. Rather than show a particular recalculated temperature's precise new time frames, these four graphs illustrate relative differences from the IPCC’s predicted temperatures and time frames. These four graphs also show how unanticipated higher temperatures will dramatically accelerate consequence arrival times and increase consequence severity. It is difficult to precisely recalculate new timeframes with temperature calculations only because there is always a delay in the actual time it takes to get to higher temperatures because of inertia and momentum factors in climate systems and subsystems.)

 

This means we are not at the horrible and disastrous 20 to 40% underestimated levels, as Job One has previously stated. 
This new and corrected climate sensitivity constant of 4.8 degrees Celsius means our worst fears have not only been confirmed but are even worse.

Summary

Because of the IPPC calculation problems listed above, the IPCC has repeatedly failed to adjust and adequately compensate for its failure to include all known climate tipping points, feedback loops, and the other serious error factors (above) in its calculations for its climate consequence predictions and its targets for correct global fossil fuel reductions. Therefore, the IPCC's underestimated consequence predictions and global fossil fuel targets should not be relied upon without discounting them by 30-60%. 

Not only does the IPCC have a serious data underestimation problem, but it also has a problem with its runaway global heating tipping point education and disclosure scenarios.

The recognized world authority on global warming has failed us. Continuing to use the IPCC’s inadequate runaway global heating data and the ever-increasing fossil fuel pollution of our atmosphere will inevitably lead to crossing more runaway global heating tipping points.

The IPCC’s 30-60% underestimation will create a nightmare for anyone trying to do mid-term or long-term planning, whether personal, business, city, or national because the wrong facts will lead them to wrong actions and failure.

When you factor in crossing more runaway global heating tipping points (highly probable and nearly wholly absent from the IPCC predictions), our world is in grave peril, not 40 or 80 years from now, but now and over the next 20-40 years.

It is illogical beyond all comprehension to assign full responsibility for evaluating and predicting the single greatest security threat of the 21st century to a group of volunteer and underfunded climate scientists who submit their research to a bureaucratic and underfunded United Nations agency.

The unresolved runaway global heating danger is so great and imminent that we have no other rational choice but to bypass any existing failed structures or processes that have not worked or are not working effectively.

The IPCC’s illusions and delusions about a new miracle technology that will come into being and save us at the last minute sometime in the second half of the 21st century will be the undoing of us all.

At best, when climate scientists warned us 60 years ago, we had about 40 years to make the necessary changes. If we were very lucky, we would have about 3-6 years left to make radical, costly, and painful changes that would've been far easier, cheaper, and less painful had we begun them 60 years ago.

It is critically important also to understand that no compensatory calculations for the effects of any runaway global heating tipping points being crossed were ever included in the UN's Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change's (IPCC) calculations for precisely how much we have to reduce our global fossil fuel use to save ourselves from extinction. This is important because the IPCC's global fossil fuel reduction calculations are currently being used by all of the member governments of the United Nations (about 190 countries) to set their own internal national fossil fuel reduction programs. This horrific failure to include crossing any runaway global heating tipping points in our current global and national fossil fuel reduction calculations is also true for the world's most recent 2015 Paris Climate Agreement. This omission of including proper calculations for crossing global warming tipping points as the world continues to warm is the recipe for mutually assured destruction. This failure to include allowance calculations for crossed tipping points shockingly also means that the national fossil fuel reduction programs of every member of the United Nations using the 2015 Paris Climate Agreement targets are also based on incomplete and inaccurate calculations. (Click here for the correct 2025 global fossil fuel reduction targets.) And finally,

Keep in mind that our government leaders have utterly failed to see the coming pain and suffering of the COVID-19 pandemic and did not adequately prepare for it. Our government leaders are also not seeing or adequately preparing for the runaway global heating extinction emergency, which is already happening and will be far worse than COVID-19!

After reading this page and the critical pages linked to it, you, too, have probably realized that the IPCC's underpaid administrators have been either overwhelmed or compromised by the 28 trillion dollars-a-year fossil fuel industry. The summary climate reports they administer and create can no longer be relied upon as accurate or serving the well-being of the world's citizens.

The many current government, UN, or other-promoted 2050, 2040, and 2035 competing global fossil fuel reduction targets and deadlines are dangerously wrong. Many of our most trusted environmental groups also promote these wrong targets and deadlines.

The above article should have answered the following question: Why do our governments and the media continually give us so many different, incorrect, and grossly underestimated global fossil fuel reduction targets, deadlines, and net-zero emissions pledges?

Despite being the world's most recognized authority on global warming (aka climate change), the United Nations Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) has consistently understated the intensity and timeframes of runaway global warming and its danger.

There can be no margin for error whenever there is a real and imminent threat of total human extinction.

In addition to the problems found above that are stopping us from solving the climate change emergency, there are 30 more very tough reasons, covered in detail on the following page, for why the climate emergency will not go away until much of humanity has perished.

The essential positive perspective on the above disruptive runaway global heating and climate change news

Despite the many challenging, runaway global heating consequences and past fossil fuel reduction mistakes we now face, we can still learn from their feedback and adapt and evolve to make life as good and happy as possible. No matter how severe the coming runaway global heating consequences might become, if we wisely play the remaining cards we have dealt, we can still achieve the best possible outcomes. 

We can yet make a significant difference in reducing global fossil fuel use to stabilize and save the future of humanity by executing a comprehensive reduction and survival plan like the Job One for Humanity runaway global heating action plan. 

We can still maintain the perseverance needed to succeed in this monumental task by regularly reviewing the many benefits that will unfold as we work together. (Click here to review those benefits.) 

We can persevere through this time of emergency. We must remember that our greatest challenges are also the seeds of our greatest opportunities.

We are engaged in nothing less than the most critical and meaningful evolutionary opportunity, challenge, and adventure in human history! Our last chance is to slow the mass human extinction threat by reaching these 2025 global fossil fuel reduction targets. Only reaching these targets will thoroughly remove the near-total extinction threat. In reaching these targets, we also significantly improve many of the world's other 12 major challenges.
