Yves here. I only thought that Trump is moving forward in his project to reduce the standard of living in the United States at the level of the 1890s, an area where he is staying short is climate change. A general increase in temperature levels and more and more wild climate challenges your desire to return to the past.
Since the early 2000s, the Pentagon has been informed about what is represented as inevitable massive -induced mass migrations, which would be huge destabilizing. So, the story that the main movements of the population are inevitable is not news. However, citizens in high -income countries have a strange way of thinking that they are not very exposed.
This article provides a necessary, although sensible update, that obtaining the temperature increase objective of 1.5 ° C would produce very bad results and equally only maintaining the current level of 1.2 ° C to generate the increase in the increase in the increase and increase in sewing increases the increase in increase by increasing the increase in elevation

Since governments “reduce their already lean actions” to address climate collapse, an environmentalist said, “our current human culture is in a suicide course.”
Less than six months from the next United Nations Summit for the parties in the Paris Faate climate, the scientists published a study on Tuesday that showed that it even fulfilled the temperature objective of 1.5 ° C of the agreement could be the increase in Sea Level Serioly.
The governments signed by the 2015 Treaty are aimed at taking measures to limit the increase in global temperature by 2100 to 1.5 ° C beyond pre -industrial levels. Last year it was not only the most popular in human history, but also the first in which the average global temperature exceeded 1.5ºC.
The study published on Tuesday in the magazine NATURE COMMUNICATIONS EARTH AND ENVIRONMENTHe warns that 1.5 ° C “is too high” and also the current 1.2 ° C, “if it is suffered, it is likely to generate several meters of sea level increase during the next centuries, causing extensive loss and damage to coastal populations and challenge the implementation of adaptation.”
“To avoid this request, a global average temperature that is colder than the present and that we hypothesize that it is closer to +1 ° C above the frustrial, possible even lower, but more work is urgently required for safer to determine the Antarctica and the continental glaciers of Greenland.
Co -author Jonathan Bamber told journalists that we refer to a safe limit is one that allows a certain level of adaptation, instead of a catastrophic forced migration and migration and forced migration and forced migration, and the safe limit is a rough height list. “”
“If you get to that, then it becomes extremely challenging for any child of adaptation, and you will see a massive migration of lands on scales that we never witness in modern civilization,” said Professor of the University of Bristol.
In terms of time, the main author of the study, Chris Stokes, of the University of Durham of the United Kingdom, said in a statement that “the 1 centimeter rates per year are not out of the matter within the life of our young people.”
There are currently around 8.18 billion people on the planet. The study, funded by the Natural Environment Research Council of the United Kingdom, says that “the loss of continuous mass of the ice layers raises an existential threat to the world’s coastal populations, with an estimated one of one billion people who inhabit lands less than 10 meters above sea level and around 230 million within 1 meter.”
“Without adaptation, conservative estimates suggest that 20 centimeters or [sea-level rise] By 2050 Would Lead to average global flood losses or $ 1 trillion or more per year for the world’s 136 Larganst Coastal Cities, ”Says The Study, Also Co-Autchored by University of Wisconsin-Madison Professor Andrea Dutton and University of Massachusetton and University of Massachustton and University of Massachusetton and University of Massachusetton and University of Massachusetton and University of Massachusetton and University of Massachusetton and University of Massachuset.
Deconto said Tuesday that “it is important to emphasize that these accelerating changes in ice layers and their contributions at sea level should be considered permanent in multi -time scales.”
“Only the Earth returns to its pre -end temperature, it will still carry hundreds of perhaps thousands of the year so that the ice layers recover,” the professor explained. “If too much ice is lost, the parts of these layers of ice may not recover until the Earth enters the next ice age. In other words, the land lost by the increase in sea level due to the layers of melted ice will be lost due to a very, long time heat.
While the newspaper caused an international alarm, Stokes highlighted what he called “a reason for hope”, which is “we just have to go in the early 1990s to find a time when the ice layers seemed further.”
“The global temperatures were around 1 ° C above the preordial at that time, and carbon dioxide concentrations were 350 parts per million, what others have suggested is a much safer earth limit of the earth,” he said. “Carbon dioxide concentrations are currently around 424 parts per million and continue to increase.”
The new article continues an intense flow of shadow studies on the climate emergency of worsening, and specifically, advancing the increase in sea level. Another, published by the magazine Nature In February, it shows that glaciers have lost an average of 273 billion ice metric tons annually since 2000.
Despite the warnings of scientists, the government whose country is responsible for most of the historical planet heat emissions, the United States, is actually working to boost the fossil fuel industry. Upon returning to office in January, the president of the United States, Donald Trump, declared an “energy emergency” and launched the Paris Agreement.
Responding to the new study on social networks, Ecodish Ecodish Ecologist Alan Watson Featherstone shouted both the governments of the United States and the United Kingdom. He said that with many countries “reducing his already Mager and [totally] Inadequate actions to address climate breakdown, our current human culture is in a suicide course. “
