More of Israel's homicidal, genocidal evil empire, blocking humanitarian aid, because they do not count Palestinians as humans. Netanyahu's Israeli military and leadership is an evil that must be stopped.
The Freedom Flotilla Coalition announced that it has lost contact with the “Handala,” a ship carrying humanitarian aid to Gaza as part of the group’s mission to break Israel’s blockade. 🔴 LIVE updates: aje.io/9j0i0u

Waiting to see the replies to this ignoramus who doesn't seem to understand that 1.5 to 2 degrees C being talked about is "Global". And he exposes his ignorance by saying "in the Czech Republic, we're past 2C". "Global Warming" is tracking the impacts of the GLOBAL

Well said, instant retweet. These ideas of adaptation, are based on total ecological ignorance. Adaptation, even to present average temperatures, are going to be very difficult, because most of the changes it is creating will take time to work through.
icymi: adaptation to impacts is simply not feasible beyond 2°C of warming (projected to hit within just 7 to 21 years).. the majority of scientists anticipate conditions associated with mass death
The IPCC indicates global warming of 1.75/2.25°C (fully expected within 5 to 15 years or so) is when adaptation eludes humanity. Why is this being ignored?
Crop yields are expected to decline by a catastrophic 8-50% within decades.
Worth knowing: 70% of climate change impact studies show declines in crop yields by the 2030s, with half the studies having unthinkable 10–50% declines.
1. Journalists and scientists could investigate what the IPCC says about adaptation. We hear nothing about it.
1. "2 degrees is already beyond adaptation for fuck's sake. 3 degrees is mass death for sure." ~ IPCC Lead Author * 2°C for first time by 2029- 2049 and as trend by 2035- 2055 is anticipated * conservative projections show 3C would follow by 2050-2150 🧵
