What is Doomer? :(
It is a nebulous thing that may include but is not limited to Climate Change posts or Collapse posts.

Oh hey, look, it's the thing that the west was saying that the bad guy countries would be doing in order to be lazy and not actually improve emissions and green energy! I sure am glad the good guy countries are the ones doing this, I'd hate to think what would happen if a country responsible for the vast majority of lifetime global emissions did something like this as a quick shortcut instead of actually trying to right their past wrongs!
Oh cool they are doing the plot of snowpiercer
In 2014, an attempt to stop climate change via stratospheric aerosol injection catastrophically backfires, creating a new ice age that destroys much of life on Earth.
The Ark, too, had this as a plot point. A rich guy shot aerosols into the atmosphere that incurably poisoned a huge portion of the population. Both scarily plausible honestly.
either that or the highlander 2 future
Or the matrix. It's a relatively popular idea for how incredibly stupid and dangerous it is.
Or Soul Reaver.
Or fucking Mistborn lmao
I would rather freeze to death than where we're going
tundra over desert all the time
I much prefer white landscapes to white-people-white landscapes
Oh cool it's not like that will also lower crop yields or the efficiency of solar power or anything
Yup, but we’ll be able to burn more coal and oil…capitalists love this one trick?
comparing a single days reading is absurd to me.
the atmospheric CO2 amount fluctuates seasonally (due to the northern hemisphere forests leafing out) which has all manner of factors adjusting the start and end. especially early season where overall warmer conditions in upper latitudes is going to push leaf out forward.
those crests of every little wave is the peak cumulative sequestration of northern forests prior to seasonal senescence of deciduous trees.
the overall yearly average trend up is the existential problem, so yearly averages are what matters.

The yearly average from 2023 to 2024 was 3.75 ppm, worse then that daily reading. But yes, you are correct that the average is what matters.
Mr Burns motherfuckers
as a vampire, i support this
co2 levels are falling
they are? I didn't see it when I skimmed the article
It's extremely irresponsible phrasing. CO2 is still increasing. They probably meant 'the increase in CO2 is not slowing as fast as it needs to'
They aren't, but the article says:
However, scientists are increasingly concerned that carbon dioxide levels are not falling fast enough and that further action may be needed to prevent catastrophic warming.
which is just a weird way of saying it, they aren't falling at all. Levels are increasing faster then ever. idk why the article says that, I pointed it out but obviously was a bit too lazy to find a different source.
Was trying to say it sarcastically, like "oh really when did that happen?" but it didn't come across when I reread 😔
I suspect the line should read "carbon dioxide emissions".
it's too bloody bright innit
If they could somehow contain their "experiments" just to the UK, this would be funny
Jesus fucking christ we're actually going to do it
Does the UK even get sun more than three times a year?
'cos they keep gettin sunburnt innit
Come movie to Brazil
