Slouching toward disaster ...



As stated before in BRT, we're screwed. Nothing can be done to truly ameliorate the catastrophe known as global warming as the rich nations of the world are not ready to curb fossil emissions to the levels needed to make a difference as man hates change unless a disaster of biblical proportions happens.
 Ukraine is not that event.



Scientist Rebellion



But again, it's all about the money.

PRESS RELEASE. AMSTERDAM, February 28, 2022 – Attempts by the US and developed countries to remove key climate finance terminology from the IPCC’s highly-anticipated Working Group II (WG2) Sixth Assessment Report (AR6) have been condemned by global experts and activists as a desperate bid to evade responsibility. In what should have been a scientific, not political, process, rich countries battled to erase references to key concepts like loss and damage and to water down references to the scale of finance needed for adaptation. According to today’s report, climate impacts are occurring faster, and will worsen even sooner than previously predicted, necessitating an urgent increase in finance to help address climate change in developing countries.

Slouching toward disaster applies, does it not?
