Climate Change - increasingly horrible disasters loom
...............
there is so much out there about this - I don't really need to provide a lot of sources - a quick google
merged el nino thread with climate change
It's definitely shaping up to be an interesting El Nino.
The chances of the Nino 3.4 ocean region achieving a record high temperature are probably 90%+, some of which is due to climate change and a higher ocean baseline temperature everywhere.
The chances of that region achieving a record differential vs the overall ocean of 2026 are also pretty decent .... say 60%. It appears that this latter metric is what is going to drive the extreme weather.
We're heading into uncharted territory and it's going to throw out some surprises.
The things to look for .... drought, flooding (atmospheric river events), heat waves, wildfire, coral bleaching, agricultural losses. A quiet Atlantic hurricane season and a busy Pacific storm season.
I’ve always thought extended families is the best system to raise children. Nuclear family is a bit of a resource sink and communal system goes against what seems like pretty basic childhood development principles like an infant/toddler’s attachment to their parents and creating a routine environment.
How would you replace the parent/child dynamic?
I don't think you have to replace it, but augment that relationship with community parenting.
Is anybody here studying those graphs that Nutterbutter posts several times a day?
For the record, I myself just scroll right past them.
it's too damn hot to look at graphs

I'd suggest that you don't draw attention to them ..... they contain information that you wish wasn't true.
Your commenting might make people curious.

Huh? I don't care one way or another who does or doesn't look at your graphs. It's kinda funny you're posting one graph after another. I was curious if anybody else just scrolls past them like I do. This is your blog thread, so obviously you can do whatever you want with it.
I'm just bearing witness to the transition to a version of the planet that is hostile to human civilization.
I've got a hunch that we're going to see some exceptional weather developments in the coming year and I hope to provide some context that helps people make sense of it.

Any chance you can bear witness in a single thread?
Here's an excellent video on the latest in AMOC research. Unfortunately it's rather lengthy .... nearly 2 hours.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ENMsZaGt...
The scientific community has made a breakthrough by leveraging data that has been collected over the past 30 years via satellite. The data shows that the gulfstream surface current has migrated north by 53km since 1993. The cause of the movement is weakening of the AMOC at the ocean floor which had kept the gulfstream pinned in place.
We're approaching a tipping point which we can't measure with precision. The consequences of passing that tipping point would be apocalyptic and relatively.
The system last stopped 13,000 years ago and led to the Younger Dryas era which lasted for about 1,200 years.
It's a system which people take for granted. They have no concept of our vulnerability.
It's over a petawatt of energy. More than 50x all human energy generation combined. Turning something like that off has far reaching consequences across the entire Earth.
I don't think anyone could watch the video and continue to mock my message with any credibility.
I suppose there is an imaginary world in which people on this forum actually express some curiosity about the AMOC and the recent research which explores the risk of collapse.
People want to label me as some kind of cartoonish villain ...... but they don't dare to journey into the root cause behind my proposals.
