“Here’s a water-cooler fun fact:
“The 3-year running mean for the Global surface temperature anomaly above the 1850-1900 pre-industrial baseline is now at 1.495°C.
“Given the current global temperature forecast, the 3-year mean should cross 1.50°C within the next 30 days.”

You can read the previous “Climate” thread here. I’ll be back tomorrow with an “Economic” thread.
If the “energy transition” discourse is a tacit acknowledgment of net energy decline, then the 1.5C “target” is – sorry, WAS – the tacit acknowledgment of the hollowness of actually existing climate action. The target only existed so we could tell each other that something must be done about it while going about our lives as usual. Now that it has been breached we need a new target, say 2C. Then we can start urging action to each other again, while trying to live our liiiives as the zoomers like to say. We’ll tweet and post and speak and lecture about how important it is that we stay below 2C – much more important than staying below 1.5C! – and then go back to the liiiiiiives all of us trying to live.
In the same vein, the narrative about billions of lives tragically lost specifically in the third world due to climate catastrophe in the short-medium term future is a tacit rejection of the possibility of globally coordinated climate mitigation, and by extension tacit affirmation of the decadent bourgeois fantasy that selective autarky and its folksy analogue “buy local, grow local” is a tough choice that will help the Chosen Few survive in a tough world.
Here are two videos by Mordecai Ogada on “conservation bullshit”, applying the same critique as above to a different but related field:

Jupiviv, thank you for those Mordecai Ogada clips. I enjoyed a previous one you posted where he discussed the carbon credits scam.
The IPCC will only officially concede that the Paris guardrail has been breached when warming consistently exceeds 1.5C over a 20-year average, but I am wondering if the absurdity of that definition in the face of accelerating warming will cause them to do an about face. António Guterres’ statement suggests they might.
If so, you’re probably right that 2C will be the next threshold we steadfastly determine not to pass – and then do. Or perhaps economic concerns will become so pressing that climate change is triaged down the list of most nation’s priorities and we sink into a kind of collective denial, with climate targets being quietly shelved.
Ok, ok, this is all so very, very funny and stupid beyond all measure.
Don’t think George’s amazing anagram find of “Aim for piss, sir” was not seen and beloved.
For Antonio Guterres, who now says “devastating consequences now inevitable” without laughing at the revelation of his own ineffectuality:
“Generations rout.”
Or, more poetically, “Organist enroute.”
Also, Families Like Us, the hilarious, wonderful successor to Don’t Look Up, was produced by none other than the “European Union.” No Official Irony there?
I didn’t know it was produced by the EU but it makes total sense given the plot is basically Kafka except the horror of radical alienation has been replaced by suburbanite white liberal angst over the precarity of ‘privilege’.
So Denmark is flooded but somehow the EU is still making problematic (but effective) policy decisions about what to do with all the *gasp* white Aryan?!!! refugees. Yeeeeah sure. Would you like some Sunny D with that self-critical hopium?
Martin, Antonio has quite a flair for apocalyptic, if impotent, warnings. Who could forget his 2023 pronouncement – “The era of global boiling has arrived.”

A 300-mile power line was supposed to serve the public. Now it may serve a data center
This summer, after nearly 20 years of planning, permitting and lawsuits, construction finally launched on a new electrical transmission line set to run nearly 300 miles across five Oregon counties and into Idaho – one of Oregon’s largest transmission projects in decades.
But Irene Gilbert, a retiree from La Grande who over the years has repeatedly challenged the Boardman-to-Hemingway project – B2H for short – wasn’t ready to back down.
To Gilbert, the project embodied everything she disliked about green energy development. And though the line wouldn’t affect Gilbert’s property, it was slated to cross the 6,000-acre Ladd Marsh on the outskirts of La Grande. It is the largest remaining wetland in northeast Oregon, home to deer, elk, coyotes, bears, swans, eagles, ducks and many other species – and Gilbert’s favorite place to hike, hunt, fish and harvest huckleberries and mushrooms
…..Altogether, the contested case process before the state council took nearly two years. To Gilbert, the experience proved it’s nearly impossible for the public to challenge an energy project.
“In over 100 issues, the Oregon Department of Energy and the developer were right and the public was wrong – even though the public included people like attorneys, former attorneys, wildlife biologists and landowners,” she said. “I don’t believe that they were all wrong.”
In fact, the siting council has never reversed their approval of a project as a result of a contested case proceeding, energy officials confirmed.”
Well. We have appearances to uphold, now don’t we? Got to give them an outlet to waste their energy and time…bravo, got to love the process, actually to CONSUME is to LOVE…yes, I got it now…
PacifiCorps’ rebuttal: “…even if PacifiCorp’s share of the line is dedicated to exclusively serving a single large load customer, that remains a public use under Oregon law, as large commercial customers are Oregon retail customers.”
That does not seem in the spirit of the law to me. 😂

Europe’s Energy Transition Is Stalling — Not in the Future, but Right Now
Behind the political slogans of net zero and green growth, Europe’s energy transition is quietly running out of steam. The system designed to deliver decarbonisation is consuming more energy, materials, and money than it produces in stability. The transition isn’t merely slowing down — it’s seizing up.
The first fracture lies in the physical infrastructure. Across Europe, new cables, substations, converters, and storage facilities are being built at record speed, yet net energy output is stagnating. The energy return on energy invested (EROEI) is falling as material and labour requirements soar. What was meant to be a pathway to efficiency has become an infrastructure machine devouring itself.
The second fault line is financial. The transition was built during an era of nearly free capital. Now, with interest rates above 3–4%, the logic of endless, debt-fuelled investment is collapsing. Grid operators and governments are burdened with obligations that only made sense in a zero-rate world.
A third crisis is practical. Supply chains for copper, transformers, high-voltage cables, and skilled technicians are overstretched. Delivery times stretch into the next decade, making 2030 and 2035 targets largely fictional.
Meanwhile, the political narrative remains linear and upbeat: more wind, more solar, more storage. But the underlying system has entered a phase of exponential complexity. What was once a growth engine has become a maintenance problem — an intricate network running hotter and faster just to stay in place.
The outcome is becoming unavoidable: Europe’s energy transition has not failed; it has exhausted itself. What remains is a widening gap between ambition and physics — a motor still revving, even as the oil runs dry.

Thanks, Zip. The UK is horribly exposed to the net energy crisis with North Sea oil production declining for 26 years now, and 22 years of having to import ever more energy than we produce. From the article: “The collapse of the company would represent yet another blow to government efforts to lower energy bills and protect jobs across British industry.”

Last week I heard someone say that this is the first generation growing up collectively mourning their future. Where is the leadership to drastically cut back ghg emissions and address climate change?
We know some common sense steps that can be taken – reduce waste (turn off the lights at night of all those city buildings for example), invest in cleaner energy, Legislate that gas/oil companies must pay for environmental clean up, lower the standard of living of the wealthy, recycle/reuse stuff instead of buying new (and charge for throwing big stuff away – circular economy), trend vegetarian, limit air travel and second cars (better yet support mass transit and bicycle), etc.
Alyce, thank you for commenting and welcome to the site. My apologies that your comment got held in moderation – WordPress does that to all first time comments.
I have two sons, nineteen and thirteen. The younger one is very concerned about climate change and has a lot of anxiety around it – not fed by me, I hasten to add – although I wouldn’t say he has reached the stage of pre-emptive mourning. My eldest, on the other hand, sees climate change as a distant, peripheral problem, so I guess there is still a wide range of perspectives, even amongst this up and coming generation.

Bill Gates thinks climate change is a serious problem but it won’t be the end of civilization. He thinks scientific innovation will curb it, and it’s instead time for a “strategic pivot” in the global climate fight: from focusing on limiting rising temperatures to fighting poverty and preventing disease.
….If given a choice between eradicating malaria and a tenth of a degree increase in warming, Gates told reporters, “I’ll let the temperature go up 0.1 degree to get rid of malaria. People don’t understand the suffering that exists today.”
…Princeton University climate scientist Michael Oppenheimer said he doesn’t dispute the principle of making human well-being the primary objective of policy, but what about the natural world?
“Climate change is already wreaking havoc there,” he wrote in an email. “Can we truly live in a technological bubble? Do we want to?”
Gates is clear in his memo that every tenth of a degree of warming matters: “A stable climate makes it easier to improve people’s lives.”
Yep, Let’s focus on a 1/10 degree, shall we, Im a very precise individual myself.
Bill, has good intentions, but unfortunately he needs new glasses to see.
More debate…that’s what’s in order, order
Stanford University climate scientist Chris Field said there is room for a healthy discussion about whether the current framing of the climate crisis is typically too pessimistic.
