Climate Change Apocalypse

Pollsters predicting a Lula win now. Big voter suppression exercises earlier by the Federal Highway Police, controlled by a Bolsonaro ally, conducting hundreds of illegal roadblocks stopping buses taking Lula voters to the polls. There will be bloodshed tonight and for some time to come.

But that's a 50% increase since pre industrial times. So it's reasonable that that sort of an increase would have an effect on a fragile system

When the margins are tight, big percentage changes to small things can have a huge impact.

Climate denial group funded by billionaire brothers with billions invested in fossil fuels and mining gets one Nobel laureate to supper them. Meanwhile, the many dozens of others currently alive say nothing or are on n the other side? Not sure it's quite the win they're making it out to be.  Does this not work both ways? Climate scientists are heavily funded and lose funding if they go the other way? Plenty of experts say there is no empirical proof humans are causing the damage. The Milankovitch cycles - the fact the earth spins closer to the sun at times - makes more sense to me.  Maybe it's a mixture of both? Co2 makes up 0.03 per cent of the atmosphere. How can that cause all the damage? I dunno Ger, but the vast majority of experts much smarter than us both believe we're causing it by and large, and that's good enough for me.

Seems to be many people a lot smarter than us who dispute it too. If it's so clear cut, why are there so many who are sceptical?

Twitter is a dangerous cesspit. It’s absolutely galling what you can read on that kip 

Maybe a trip to the library is the answer rather than twitter
