I want to stay hopeful about this, but I'm not very optimistic about this, not only does it seem we have to change a lot of the aspects of living (we as a society may not want to do some of that) but we also need to convince corporations to stop damaging the planet, but of course that would mean losing some profit, but they don't want to do that sadly.
we won't have to worry about Florida for much longer!
Well, Orlando is 20-40 meters above sea level, so it will take a while before the water gets that high.

The world could breach 1.5 degrees of warming for the first time. El Niño (This year) could -- for the first time -- push the world past 1.5 degrees Celsius of warming above the pre-industrial levels of the mid-to-late 1800s. Compared to pre-industrial temperatures. Scientists consider 1.5 degrees of warming as a key tipping point, beyond which the chances of extreme flooding, drought, wildfires, and food shortages could increase dramatically. Regarding the fact that this year can be biblical, I think that this is pure manipulation. Religion has always been used as a tool for crowd control, I read about it here https://writingbros.com/essay-examples/manipulation-of-religion-in-handmaids-tale/ (https://writingbros.com/essay-examples/manipulation-of-religion-in-handmaids-tale/) when looking for materials for my college studies. I think that everything will be the same as in 2012, that is, no way. A strong El Niño could push the planet to that point, Scaife said, even if only temporarily. "We will probably have, in 2024, the warmest year globally on record," Josef Ludescher a senior scientist at Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research.
So what you’re saying is that all news is bad news. Even if it looks good.
A very wet winter certainly helped buy the SW some time, but the groundwater there is still severely depleted.
Water is a very precious resource that we all grew up taking for granted and considering almost "free" ....

Yes, but Tp4 is quite at peace with this, if you think about it, witnessing the-very-END of human civilization in the coming 5-10 years is SUPER Lucky.

These are exciting times, for a number of reasons. It is important to appreciate the times we live in whether good or bad, do what we can to help, and recognize that some things are out of our control. Personally, I would rather focus on more immediate needs that threaten the public good than apocalyptic predictions that are decades or centuries away.
TP, I may not be properly understanding your map and charts but it looks like you may be confusing grazing land with land used for animal crops.

NO, that is not what grazing land is. The vast majority of grazing land is FOREST that we CUT and BURNED over the Millennia, we've done this for roughly 10,000 years.
In the US?
In the US?
YES, for america the Indians didn't have that capacity. The invaders did.
What is less talked about is, we continuously BURN grazing land, because otherwise the TREES start to grow back.

Specific to COAL, this is going to sound wildly unpopular, but we might need to significantly increase coal burning in the mean time as a temporary measure to stabilized the climate, while we convert the energy FROM said burning into Solar Panels and Wind Power.
Many new scientific papers recently has come out indicating that the pandemic shutdowns which dramatically reduced Aerosol cover from burning fossil fuels, is what triggered the intense drought and flood situations across asia/ europe/ australia. and now NOW , USA.

But hey, eat meat, deforest 43% of earth's dry land to grow that meat (IPCC) The fossil fuel Republicans deny climate change outright, the Democrats only deny it through their actions to preserve the capitalist status quo, approve drilling contracts, and obstruct the IPCC from recommending people eat a plant based diet.

No greater blunder ever made than when, in 2000, the US Supreme Court made the oil man president in preference to the environmentalist.In 1992, his father was about to go to Rio and sign the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change, which in its form called for signatories binding agreements for actual reductions in CO₂ emissions.

Then he got a call from an old buddie in the oil industry ...
This led to the US demanding that any actual commitments be removed from the treaty.
And so they were.

You're a liar, that water is supposed to be over the river. God says use boats instead of cars.

And Venice and all the low lying areas as well.
I made sure to visit Venice while it was possible. There, I learned that Venice got flooded regularly, and they had hourly flooding forecasts. I planned my day to visit St Marcus square in the morning, while workers were deploying raised walkways in preparation for when the place was going to be flooded in the afternoon.
At least Venice is low and flat, being flooded gently by the sea broken by large sand banks a distance away, not subject to roaring rivers breaking its boundaries and sweeping houses with it.
The thing is with venice is that when I would want to visit it might just be flooded so most likely I will never visit venice, plus not enough money to go everywhere so have to pick and choose.I visited it only briefly during a two-week trip on a European rail pass.Travelling that way made it relatively affordable per city, and the rail pass itself does not require a fixed itinerary (but hotels and seat reservations often need to be booked in advance, which I did, for comfort).

Many people are unaware that it is algae in the ocean that does most of the photosynthesis of carbon dioxide to oxygen.
Not that plants on land aren't important.
But both forests and oceans have operational limits both in carbon dioxide level and temperatur, at which their ability to process carbon dioxide will be severely diminished.
Watched a video about cultural burning, something used by the indigenous population of Australia.
It's where you burn certain parts of the environment at certain times. Similar to backburning but with more of an understanding of the land and when we should do it. It helps reduce forest fires while minimising damage and allowing the flora of Australia should grow more. The way they do it is quite interesting, the elders in the video have such a comprehensive understanding of the environment and where to burn. Think more countries (including Australia) should learn about the environment and to properly backburn to prevent the massively insane fires that do so much damage to the natural fauna and flora.
The Indigenous Indians of America which we genocided to become the United States also have Brush burns. They understood it with more mysticism, but the effect is the same as this Australian Cultural Burn.

Climate change linked to spread of diarrhoeal illness: temperature, day length and humidity have been found to be linked to the increased spread of a diarrhoeal illness
Sigh..... here we go.
It won't be like it is now. If you think back to 1930s worth of conveniences and resources, it'll be something like that for a while if we SURVIVE at all.
At worst, we'll be back to the stone age within a few months. All our reactors would've melted down because they only have a week or 2 of diesel backup for the cooling pools and pumps. It's the equivalent of up to 10,000x chernobyls worth of radiation going up into the atmosphere in a very short time. The northern hemisphere will lose most large animals.
It would've been nice to do the whole, sunny camping movies, without zombies, and the happy looking tribes, but that is 100% certain not possible when we've already poisoned our world with nuclear.
I suspect, LIFE will survive and can reset in a few million years, but it's unlikely that humanity would survive.
There are calculations that say most children born today are unlikely to live to adulthood when climate change hits the fan.
It won't be like it is now.
It won't be like it is now.
A large portion of the world's population lives near the ocean, and you should expect the sea level to rise a couple of meters in your lifetime.
Global warming will dramatically alter agriculture and where and when food resources can be grown and harvested. Seafood, especially large pelagic fishes, will become precious.
Populations of plants and animals will collapse and diversity will shrink considerably. Hopefully, a significant amount of wild nature can be preserved in pockets around the world ....
Wild temperature swings will be common as atmospheric and ocean currents that have reliably conveyed heat around the globe for eons falter and become unpredictable.
And don't forget that the sun occasionally erupts in gigantic flares of radiation, and that we have not seen once since the dawn of the "electric age" a century ago.
These were "standard" predictions for dystopian writing in the past, and assumed to be possibilities for the distant future. But that future is rapidly (abruptly?) appearing before our eyes, and yet huge swaths of the population remain in denial. I may or may not live to see Miami under water, but, like you, my children will see enormous change.
It will not be possible to escape the problems altogether, but you should carefully consider where to live your life, and ensure that it is a region that is less prone to the "great" catastrophes such as floods, fires, hurricanes, tornadoes, earthquakes (and why aren't we seeing more of these yet? Global Warming must be causing the crust of the Earth to expand, and I would have guessed that there would be more cracks .... ) I am tired of making myself sick so I will stop typing this list.
The human race has been a colossal FAIL in its responsibility for the stewardship of the planet.
I have maintained my sanity throughout my life by keeping an attitude of optimism and avoiding cynicism as much as possible, but it has been getting stretched thin in recent years. There are generally 2 schools of thought: (1) everything is going to hell so I have to grab as much as I can while I still have the chance, and (2) we are all in this together and only by cooperation can the problems of the world be ameliorated. I have always been in group 2. I believe that we can only "feel good about ourselves" under this principle and it is the only way to live a good life, in my opinion. People in group 1 will always feel empty inside.
But you have to play the cards that you are dealt.
ps - never dwell on the past or fret over what could have been, even though humans have been fantasizing over "time machines" for centuries - don't waste your time!

I was extremely fortunate to have come up at the tail end of the "old world" where I received an excellent education in the public school system (including rigorous phys ed at least 3 days per week through high school (and the first 2 years of college)) and generally stayed healthy and fit without much extra effort. My mother prepared our meals from scratch with mostly fresh ingredients.
Growing up in a mid-sized city in "Middle America" and being in the "good kids" circle I graduated from high school having never seen or smelled marijuana. Nor did I drink or do anything else illicit until I got to college. We got a color TV in the mid-1960s for the family, but I did not get a TV for myself until my last year in college. Needless to say, I have been a voracious reader my entire life.

Could we please consider the ice. Seriously, we're losing it. Estimates now up to 5 meters by end of century.
"The study—written by James Hansen, NASA’s former lead climate scientist, and 16 co-authors, many of whom are considered among the top in their fields—concludes that glaciers in Greenland and Antarctica will melt 10 times faster than previous consensus estimates, resulting in sea level rise of at least 10 feet (3m) in as little as 50 years.

It may well be the Covid but neither of us are at the age where we can bounce back and be like we were. As we get into our 70's often it's the accidental fall or back twist, the cold that becomes pneumonia, or some inherited condition finally coming out that sets us back and that becomes the new norm.
