TL;DR - sea level around New Orleans has risen 8 inches = 20 centimeters since the time of Hurricane Katrina
If I lose Massachusetts to global warming
You're assuming death will stop me.
If I lose Massachusetts to global warming
Massachusetts gets up to a thousand thousand meters high in the west, you will probably only lose the first meter or 2 during your lifetime.
Revenge is a fool's errand, the past has passed. Expend your energies and rescue the future from the Republicans.
Hey, look at the silver lining.
If climate change is getting worse, at this rate we won't have to worry about Florida for much longer!

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 tide, another meter will decimate florida.
Meanwhile at 1 m above sea level.... :')

Rent, no way I can buy a house.

Do you rent or own?

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.
Takes 100s of thousands of years for us to come this far, and we got to try all the best stuffs.
If you were born even 100 years ago, the best we had then was some pieces of wood on another piece of wood, the pinnacle of entertainment.Show Image(https://i.imgur.com/XiFOtf2.gif)
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.

How do you explain the increased forests?
One wonders if in the distant future, short shorts would become socially acceptable for men to wear, because it'd be too hot otherwise where regular shorts won't cut it..Show Image(https://i.imgur.com/HmeSYmM.jpg)

climate change is fake news
You would think that all those working class guys who have collected arsenals would start going after Republicans for lying to them all these years.

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.
Siberia over 100F/38C above the Arctic Circle.
Again.
ps - it was above 90F/32C on the beach at the Arctic Ocean
Arizona gonna be 120+ tomorrowArizona heat isn't the same as the rest of the country because it has such insanely low levels of humidity (often single digit humidity).
yuck
