My top 3 impressions up-front: The sea level projections for the year 2100 have been adjusted upwards again. The IPCC gives more consideration to the large long-term sea-level rise beyond the year 2100. And here is the key sea-level graphic from the Summary for Policy Makers: Source: IPCC AR6, Figure SPM.8.

Meltwater from Greenland’s ice sheets have caused about a quarter of the rise in the world’s sea levels. The report shows that certain trends such as rising seas and shrinking ice sheets will continue even if carbon pollution is halted immediately. Like rising temperatures, ice loss in Greenland will have global consequences.

For the AMOC (and other climate tipping points ), the only action we can take to minimise the risk is to get out of fossil fuels and stop deforestation as fast as possible. In 2022, the G20 governments alone subsidised fossil fuel use with 1.4 In 2022, the G20 governments alone subsidised fossil fuel use with 1.4

The comprehensive report leaves no one in doubt that every corner of the Earth is now impacted by climate change , the change caused by the burning of fossil fuels and other human activities. And by the end of this century, extreme sea-level events which previously occurred every 100 years could happen every year.

Warmer temperatures will encourage the melting of glaciers, ice fields, summer Arctic sea ice, and permafrost, some of which may be irreversible. Sea levels will continue to rise throughout the 21st century, contributing to more frequent and severe coastal flooding in low-lying areas along coasts around the world.

Fossil fuel : Any mineralized formerly organic material extracted from the ground and used in energy production: coal, natural gas, oil. Mineral resource sustainability : Minerals are precious metals, sold and liquid fossil fuels such as oil and coal, are resources that require licensing and protection for proper management.

Over the last few years I helped save enough nuclear plants from being replaced by fossil fuels to prevent a sharp increase in emissions But until last year, I mostly avoided speaking out against the climate scare. Environmental groups have accepted hundreds of millions of dollars from fossil fuel interests.
