The May Climate Change Newsletter

This month's newsletter is quite simple. Some articles, a bit of extra information at the end, a Billie Eilish climate anxiety video, and a surprise gift in the PS section for those of you who are wise and careful thinkers.

The New Articles

Can Climate Change Affect Earthquakes and Volcanoes? The Evidence So Far

Can climate change alter tectonic plate stress by moving huge amounts of mass around the planet, especially by melting ice sheets and glaciers, shifting water into the oceans, and changing loading on faults and volcanic systems? Will this climate change consequence contribute to or accelerate the next big California earthquake, which has been predicted to have a high probability of occurring over the next decade or two?

8 Climate Realities Most Politicians Soft-Pedal, and Why Families Should Care

Climate change is no longer just an environmental issue tucked away in science reports, polite political speeches, or corporate sustainability brochures written by people who have clearly never understood the physics of climate change. It is now a global systems problem affecting food, water, insurance, public health, migration, democracy, coastal property, supply chains, and the long-term livability of whole regions.

Are We Already Out of Time on Climate Change Emergency? What Is Still Avoidable, What Is Not, and How to Protect Your Family and Business?

Do you know which near-term climate change consequences are already unavoidable, which are still partly avoidable, and what families, property owners, and businesses should do next? Because climate theory gets real the minute it reaches your lungs, your kitchen budget, or your insurance bill.

Some Other Interesting Videos

1. Billy Eilish video on climate anxiety. (About 30 seconds.)

Here are our climate anxiety tools.

 

2. Here is a one-minute fun video that explains how the current American policy towards denying climate change could actually work to our long-term benefit. Click here.

 

Other Stuff

1. Concerned about the AMOC?

“I now am increasingly worried that we may well pass that Amoc shutdown tipping point, where it becomes inevitable, in the middle of this century, which is quite close,” says Prof Stefan Rahmstorf, at the Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research in Germany. 

Dr. Valentin Portmann has led new research showing that the Atlantic meridional overturning circulation (AMOC), a major part of the global climate system, could be more likely to collapse than previously thought. 

Climate scientists use dozens of computer models to assess the future climate. However, for the complex Amoc system, these produce widely varying results, ranging from some indicating no further slowdown by 2100 to others suggesting a huge deceleration of about 65%, even when carbon emissions from fossil fuel burning are gradually cut to net zero.

The new research combined real-world ocean observations with the models to determine the most reliable results, thereby greatly reducing uncertainty. They found an estimated slowdown of 42% to 58% in 2100, a level almost certain to end in collapse. The AMOC slowing or shutting down will drastically change weather patterns in Europe, which will, in turn, drastically change food-growing patterns.

This is about an hour long and intense, but it ends on a positive note. If you are concerned about how any of these relate to climate change, this video is highly recommended. Click here to watch this video.

PS

If you consider yourself a thoughtful person who tries to make the best possible decisions so they get the best possible results, you are going to want to review a new, easy-to-read, highly illustrated article I just finished for my work at the Universe Institute, helping people at the two think tanks I work at think better and more accurately. 

This rationality and better decision-making guide for better actions is a great review, and it has many modern tools in it that most people never saw in school, which are particularly at a think tank, and are just part of the basic job. 

If you take the time to look at this short guide to improving your thinking skills and you do not feel that it has helped you in some significant way, then I would recommend you unsubscribe from our mail list because if we are not delivering value in truth to you in our statements, we don't deserve your support. Here is the short guide. Click the link or the image below.
