1.5°C is a symbolic boundary. It was agreed to not be broken in the Paris agreement in 2016. Not even ten years later, it is broken for the eigth consecutive month and in the yearly average. It will be broken permanently in 5-10 years. It is a symbolic boundary because it is an arbitrary number and every tenth of a degree matters. We still need to support climat action even if it is broken. But it is also a symbol of political incompetency and fossil fuel malice.

We have the technologies. The list goes on and on and on. We just need to employ them instead of waiting further for magical fixes.

Being mindful of ones own actions is good, but saving the planet needs us to target big oil.

Yes, we need to significantly reduce the amount of consumed meat (maybe not insects, if we consider them meat). A step towards more vegan and vegetarian food would definitely be necessary. Yes, not everyone needs to be vegan. But we need to consume way more vegan and vegetarian food.

I so hope that something happens from this.

Meme reaction is a very low hanging fruit, surprised Pikachu would have been another easy pick.

This was a few month ago during the last COP. Really no surprise that the COPs have been quite useless.

Ich finde es sehr beeindruckend, was die zwei Menschen da machen. Man sollte über einen Hungerstreik natürlich nicht alles erzwingen können. Aber die Art und Weise, wie die Klimakatastrophe von Politik (und teilweise Medien) immer noch ignoriert und heruntergespielt wird, ist doch beschämend.

Wenn ihr in Berlin seid, geht dort doch Mal vorbei. Ich bin leider zu weit weg.

Plastics are not directly causing global warming. But they are a byproduct of the fossil fuel industry and are part of the environmental crisis we are causing.

Governments are increasingly targeting activists with repressions. Why not follow the science and actually save our climate? This would end climate protests really quickly. There is little explanation except for malice that the combination of criminalizing activists and continuing emissions seems preferable.

Hier wird wiederholt darauf hingewiesen, dass politische Partizipation und Wahlen ein geeignetes Mittel wären. Das wäre in der Vergangenheit vielleicht so gewesen, obwohl es rückblickend nicht funktioniert hat. Aber mittlerweile überschreiten Wahlen das Zeitfenster, das wir noch haben. Der aktuelle IPCC Bericht ist der letzte, der uns noch Aktionsspielraum lässt. Der nächste wird sehr wahrscheinlich bereits zu spät sein. D.h. es besteht noch ca eine Wahlperiode Zeit sinnvollen Klimaschutz zu betreiben. Ich bin nicht sicher, ob, bzw bin persönlich nicht der Meinung, dass der Verweis auf zukünftige Wahlen hier dem Zeitrahmen gerecht wird. Es ist dringend notwendig, dass die aktuelle Regierung sofort stärkere Maßnahmen ergreift.

Climate science denialism is nothing new. It has been going on for decades. The Greenhouse effect has been known for more than 100 years. There have been urgent public warnings from scientists for more than 40 years. Right now, science warns that the Atlantic meridional overturning circulation (AMOC) will break down (link). If we carry on like this, it will be a question of when, not if. This is just one example. Each example should cause immediate global political action. Instead, we're living the meme.

Naja, es geht rein um den Nahrungsverbrauch. Sollten diese Ergebnisse nicht bereits bekannt sein?

Es gibt sicher ein paar interessant Folgefragen: Die Nahrung wird ja in Energie umgesetzt, was machen die Menschen mit der Energie? Männer tragen typischerweise sinnlose Muskelmasse mit rum, die Energie verbraucht (Frauen verbrauchen wahrscheinlich zyklusabhängig etwas mehr/weniger Energie, aber immer noch weniger als Männer). Sollte also vor Weltraummissionen Muskelmasse abgebaut werden? Sollte man rein nach Energieverbauch Personen in den Weltraum schicken? Ist es effizienter, statt Nahrung Körperfett zu transportieren, was im Laufe der Mission aufgebraucht wird?

Das heißt nicht, dass ich dagegen wäre Frauen in der Raumfahrt einzusetzen. Wenn sonst alles vergleichbar zwischen Männern und Frauen ist, dann ist dies definitiv ein Vorteil und Frauen sollten demnach bevorzugt werden.

We have seen, that people and societies are extremely adaptable to changes in lifestyle. The transformation of the Netherlands to a cycling -friendly country for example. Car free city centers. People were very opposed to them before. But once the changes were made, people were happy with them and adapted to the new options. There's also negative examples where people adapted to new negative lifestyles such as car centric cities. Or smog, pollution, garbage landfills, or rivers that one is not allowed to swim in due to pollution. People are surprisingly adaptable to new conditions. We just have to do it.
