Extinction or A Dystopian Future? Will Today's Children Survive Anthropogenic Global Warming & Climate Change?

Our corrupt Australian government knows what is going to happen if we keep burning fossil fuels, anthropogenic global warming & climate change are accelerating, & we may only have 30 to 50 years or less before society collapses, assuming that society will not change. After this TEOTWAWKI, & then possibly the extinction of the human race.
Now this makes no sense to me, so I have been wondering if there is a plan behind not stopping anthropogenic global warming & climate change. Note that we have lost all the firearms that could match the fire power of the arms that the Police & Military have. Note that all items specifically made for self defence have been banned, made illegal in Australia. No one is even allowed to carry the traditional pocket knife anymore. New Zealand have enacted the same gun control legislation as Australia, & now they are trying to ban certain guns in America. England has already got strict gun control.
So lets just say for arguments sake that these corporate heads & politicians actually do care about their children & grandchildren & do not want them to die from anthropogenic global warming & climate change, if this is the case, then WHAT is their plan?  If we are not to face an extinction, does this mean that we could be looking at a dystopian future such as depicted in "The Hunger Games"??? Too far fetched? Then I would like to hear your views, your thoughts, because we are fast running out of time, & it is obvious that a majority of people are not going to do anything to stop the burning of fossil fuels any time soon!!!

IF the future is the collapse of society, teotwawki, then if society collapses early enough, preppers may still stand a chance of survival. It won't be easy, & it won't be pleasant, but we might survive. But if we are looking at a dystopian future brought about by corrupt governments, then we will be in a lot of trouble.

Climate change 'hitting harder and sooner' than forecast, warn scientists ahead of UN meeting

https://www.abc.net.au/news/2019-09-23/climate-change-accelerating-warn-scientists/11537240

A new report published ahead of key UN climate talks has warned the world is falling drastically behind in the race to avert climate disaster, with the five-year period ending in 2019 the hottest on record.

Key points:

The new report revealed that global temperatures between 2015-2019 were the hottest on record

It noted carbon emissions in the same period had risen by 20 per cent

Its authors also warned of the alarming extent of sea-level rise and melting glaciers

The data, compiled by the World Meteorological Organization (WMO), says climate change is accelerating, with sea levels rising, carbon dioxide levels increasing and ice sheets melting faster than ever before.

It warned that carbon-cutting efforts have to be intensified immediately and comes ahead of a major UN climate summit in New York on Monday that will be attended by more than 60 world leaders, as secretary-general Antonio Guterres pushes for countries to increase their greenhouse gas reduction targets.

The report "highlights the urgent need for the development of concrete actions that halt global warming and the worst effects of climate change," said its authors, the Science Advisory Group to the summit.

Average global temperatures between 2015-2019 were on track to be the hottest of any five years on record, according to the report.

It highlighted that global temperatures have risen by 1.1 degrees Celsius since 1850, and have gone up 0.2C between 2011 and 2015.

And rather than falling, carbon dioxide grew 2 per cent in 2018, reaching a record high of 37 billion tonnes and locking in further warming.

According to the report, carbon emissions between 2015 and 2019 had grown by 20 per cent compared with the previous five years.

Other major takeaways include alarming new data on the extent of sea-level rise.

Sea levels have been rising by an average of 5 millimetres a year in the past five years, compared to 3.2mm a year on average since 1993, with much of the rise attributed to melting glaciers and ice sheets.

STOP FOSSIL FUELS. Build 100% Renewables.

350.org Australia aims to rapidly end fossil fuels by building a global climate movement.

The number 350 means climate safety: to preserve a liveable planet, scientists tell us we must reduce the amount of CO2 in the atmosphere from its current level of 400 parts per million to below 350 ppm.

One billion people will live in insufferable heat within 50 years!!!

Our corrupt Australian government is giving the city people what they want today, at the cost of our children's lives tomorrow!!!

Are you all going to sit on the fence & let this happen, or are you going to rise up & take control?

The human cost of the climate crisis will hit harder, wider and sooner than previously believed, according to a study that shows a billion people will either be displaced or forced to endure insufferable heat for every additional 1C rise in the global temperature.

In a worst-case scenario of accelerating emissions, areas currently home to a third of the world’s population will be as hot as the hottest parts of the Sahara within 50 years, the paper warns. Even in the most optimistic outlook, 1.2 billion people will fall outside the comfortable “climate niche” in which humans have thrived for at least 6,000 years.

The authors of the study said they were “floored” and “blown away” by the findings because they had not expected our species to be so vulnerable.

How climate change could make infectious diseases even more difficult to combat in the future

The COVID-19 pandemic has been one of the deadliest virus outbreaks in modern history.

But researchers fear this pandemic could only be the beginning of a new battle against infectious disease outbreaks – the World Health Organisation warns that climate change could make the spread of disease even worse in the coming decades.

Researchers worry that rising temperatures could cause animals to spread disease in more widespread areas, make pathogens more savvy at surviving in hot climates, and possibly weaken the human body’s immune response.

A confidential report commissioned by the Department of Defence predicted medical shortages, panic-buying and mass job losses a year before the COVID-19 outbreak!!!

A confidential report commissioned by the Department of Defence predicted medical shortages, panic-buying and mass job losses a year before the COVID-19 outbreak

Think of coronavirus as a test run: Australian military leaders warn we must prepare for worse!!!

A confidential report commissioned by the Department of Defence predicted medical shortages, panic-buying and mass job losses a year before the COVID-19 outbreak, & yet our corrupt & incompetent government ignored this advice, they were NOT prepared & this has caused more deaths!!!

"I've looked at the global situation," she says. "It's no use festering in a bunker somewhere in Canberra — it's a time of crisis."

She says the risks to Australia are snowballing, with climate change, US-China tensions and the rise of nationalist governments among the key threats to global stability.

Prioritising.

Australian cities predicted to become uninhabitable.

People are asking how do I handle my finances in this Pandemic, and what can small businesses do to survive in this pandemic. I can't answer such questions, because I can not take responsibility for other people's lives & decisions. But, I think at this point in time, it all comes down to priorities.

At one time not too long ago some of us were saying "stop the burning of fossil fuels or we are on the road to extinction", well that time has passed, corrupt governments & the majority of people failed to act responsibly, so now, it is too late to stop anthropogenic global warming & climate change!!!

Scientists have predicted & warned that anthropogenic global warming & climate change will : make Australian cities uninhabitable, will change the natural environment and start killing off many animal species, will cause droughts, floods, crop failures, heatwaves, more cyclones, severe storms, extreme cold, rising seas & more Pandemics. 

Right now we are fighting the coronavirus outbreak & Pandemic, make no mistake, THIS IS A SURVIVAL SITUATION,  and people need to face this fact & take it seriously!!! Someone may develop a vaccine for the coronavirus, but until they do, this virus poses a very great threat to all ages, & so long as this virus exists somewhere in the world, then we are all under a constant threat that it will resurface again.

Then there are the Pandemics that have yet to strike, & all the time anthropogenic global warming & climate change are worsening, accelerating. What was once a fight to avoid, has now become a fight to adapt & survive for as long as we can. NO corrupt government is going to stop the burning of fossil fuels completely, & that is what it would take to seriously slow the effects of global warming. So we need to prepare for what is coming, we need to teach our children & grandchildren how to survive, & we need if possible, a place where they can best survive, & that place will NOT be found in the city!

Now I know that a lot of intelligent people have said that society will not collapse in the near future, that the government will not let that happen, that the military will step in & save the day. But just look at the way the general public are handling (or not handling!) these present Pandemic conditions. Panic buying, violence in supermarkets, attacking medical staff, infecting people deliberately, to say nothing of the government's incompetence in allowing passengers to leave the stricken cruise ships. In America they are arming themselves & protesting the lockdown & the social distancing, without which many more would have died. We have large numbers of Australians flouting to rules on social distancing & in so doing they are a threat to thousands of people trying to do the right thing. Do you seriously think that if this got any worse that the government could remain in control? Look at society as it is now, it has changed. People are literally fighting each other in supermarkets over toilet rolls!!!


When the government restarts the economy, which it has prioritised over the welfare of the people, the pollution levels will rise above what it was before the pandemic, carbon emissions will soar through the roof accelerating anthropogenic global warming & climate change. Imagine what would happen if we have another wave of the coronavirus due to the lifting of restrictions? Imagine what will happen if there is another pandemic on top of this one. Regardless, we are talking about time, we are talking about WHEN not IF !!! A lot of people have died due to this Pandemic, people worldwide have already died from global warming & climate change & a lot more people are going to die from now on. NOW is the time to get your priorities right, NOW is the time to be thinking of survival. That money in the bank will be worthless if society collapses, & if you think that the worst that can happen is running out of toilet paper, then think again!
Take care everyone & stay safe.
Keith.

Man dies from rat-borne hantavirus with symptoms like coronavirus

https://metro.co.uk/2020/03/25/man-dies-rat-borne-disease-similar-symptoms-coronavirus-12454908/

Scientists have warned that anthropogenic global warming & climate change will increase the likelihood of more viruses developing among humans. We already have the coronavirus, now there is a case of the more deadly Hantavirus!

Governments have to stop prioritising the economy over the welfare of the people!!! If we do not go extinct from a Pandemic, then we will surely go extinct from anthropogenic global warming & climate change!!!

The people NEED to act now, it is now too late to stop anthropogenic global warming, the government & the people have left it too late for that, but we could slow global warming down by stopping the burning of fossil fuels completely.

https://nypost.com/2020/03/24/man-who-died-on-bus-in-china-tests-positive-for-hantavirus/

Too late to stop anthropogenic global warming, & the Coronavirus Pandemic increases!

Well the hard word has come down, the majority of the human race & corrupt governments have left it too late to stop anthropogenic global warming & climate change, & on top of that we now have a global Pandemic!!!

The forecast for Australia is shorter winters, possibly with less or no snow, & longer hotter summers in which we will have more wide spread intense catastrophic bushfires. Cities in Australia are touted to become uninhabitable due to the fact that they are heat traps. Society is likely to collapse within the next 30-50 years, & our extinction period could start within the next 100 years.

The corrupt Australian government faced with this news is still selling coal to China & the UK, & has no intention of stopping the burning of fossil fuels, or stopping the destruction of our native forests & woodlands.

So, WHAT CAN WE DO? The best we can do now as individuals is continue prepping for what is coming, when society collapses there will be total chaos, riots, looting, home invasions, crime will soar. If you do not have a firearm, get one now. Our children & grandchildren will have to try & survive teotwawki when society collapses. 

It seems that we are not going to avoid an extinction, anthropogenic global warming can no longer be stopped. The best we could have hoped for was to slow global warming down to give us more time before society collapses & the extinction period begins. IF the government or the majority of people had stopped the burning of fossil fuels, we would have gained a little time, but that DID NOT happen, & it WILL NOT happen.

Don't waste anymore time, you may die from old age, but your children & grandchildren will need help if they are to survive teotwawki. Get off grid if you can, get out of the city. Get a good stock of guns & ammo, & don't forget you need an approved gun safe! Stock up with dried & canned foods. Use it & replace it. 

We are already seeing panic buying in Australia, empty supermarket shelves!!! So it is important that you stock up NOW when food is available. Don't forget the drinking water. If you are off grid in the bush, get some rainwater catchment tanks. We have just added two more tanks. Widen your firebreaks! Bushfires are forecast to get a lot worse!!! Get those gardens working for you, there will be food shortages & eventually no food at all!

A Women's & Men's Land Army to stop anthropogenic global warming & climate change.

A Women's & Men's Land Army to stop anthropogenic global warming & climate change. Why not? We have done this before, so we can do it again. This time though we need to tackle anthropogenic global warming & climate change, so we need people to fast track solar to the grid & help people adjust to a new old society. We need to help farmers go back to using horse & human power instead of fossil fuel power. We could do this, our government could do this, so why is our government NOT doing this???

Every Child on Earth Faces 'Existential Threats' From Climate Change, Report Finds!!!

https://time.com/5786395/climate-change-children-threatened/

Every child on Earth faces an uncertain future due to the effects of climate change and not one country is doing enough to ensure its children’s sustained wellbeing, a new report says.

Doomsday Clock is now 100 seconds from midnight !!!

The hypothetical clock measures our nearness to Armageddon.

Heat waves, ice loss, fires

2019 also brought alarming new evidence of climate change's momentum, and demonstrated its destructive power. In fact, humanity's disruption of climate on land and in the oceans is "unprecedented," according to a report released in September 2019 by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), the United Nations body that evaluates the impacts of climate change.

Globally, the year was the second hottest since record keeping began in 1880, and the past decade was the warmest on record, NASA reported earlier this month. July 2019 smashed records as the hottest month ever recorded on Earth, after a sweltering heat wave baked countries across Europe and then flowed over Greenland, where it melted 217 billion tons (197 billion metric tons) of ice.

Ocean temperatures are warmer than they've been at any point in human history, and they're heating up at an accelerating rate. The world's thickest mountain glacier is retreating, the Sahara Desert expanded by about 10%, and the Arctic's most stable sea ice is disappearing. 

Severe drought in Australia, also linked to climate change, fueled devastating brushfires that blazed across the continent over recent months. The flames destroyed thousands of homes, damaged fragile ecosystems and killed an estimated 1.25 billion animals, according to the World Wildlife Fund.

https://www.livescience.com/doomsday-clock-update-2020.html

And the majority of the worlds people bury their heads in the sand for the sake of keeping their jobs & their city lifestyles for just a little longer. What is it going to take if we are to stop global anthropogenic global warming & climate change? A revolution? Civil war? A world war?

Corrupt governments are NOT going to stop global warming, they are busy thinking about the economy, votes, lining their own pockets with bribes from the fossil fuel industries! We are now at just 100 seconds from midnight people, how long do you think before we reach the environmental point of no return? How long before the clock strikes 12 Midnight !!!

There will not be any bloody economy, no jobs & no cushy city lifestyles in a dead world, wake up people we are running out of time fast, literally!!!

Anthropogenic Global Warming & the Garden!

Last year was pretty much a disaster, & this year has started in the same vein. The leaves of vegies burning in the sun, losing much of our fruit due to a warm winter, then the drought & running low on water & then the threat of bushfires. So, we have been making changes in the garden. We know that anthropogenic global warming is going to get worse, so we are preparing for the present & hopefully the future. Our grandchildren may not survive global warming, but hopefully we can help them survive teotwawki.

One of our galvo water tanks up at the cottage was leaking, so I cut it into three sections & made three raised garden beds. Whilst cleaning up the cottage garden area one of my sons decided to get rid of the old water tanks being used to store firewood, so that has produced another three raised garden beds. A small tank that I was thinking of repairing also got converted into two more smaller raised garden beds because we decided to install two more new 1000 gallon water tanks for the garden. We used to pump water from the big dam for the gardens at the cottage & the main house, but for the first time in 30 odd years, this dam became almost dry. We decided to preserve what was left for the local wildlife & for fire fighting if needs be. Fortunately though the fires were all around us & we were enveloped in heavy smoke for weeks, the fires never reached our forest.

Five tank raised garden beds & the sand pit for our grandchildren.

​

The first raised garden bed I made from old roofing iron & four posts.

​My second design for a raised garden bed using pallets cut in half & old roofing iron.

​The latest raised garden bed additions, smaller but still useful. The advantages of these raised garden beds is that I think they will retain moisture better, they are easier to shade, easier to weed if needed, the bed is better secured & can not spread onto the paths, & it keeps the ducks out!!!

​Well it's a bird bath right? And I am a bird right?

​

​One new water tank on the left installed, we are still waiting on the second one to arrive. Since the drought everyone has been ordering more water tanks.

Why Clouds Are the Key to New Troubling Projections on Warming!!!

Recent climate models project that a doubling of atmospheric CO2 above pre-industrial levels could cause temperatures to soar far above previous estimates. A warming earth, researchers now say, will lead to a loss of clouds, allowing more solar energy to strike the planet.

Guest viewpoint: Peter Kraneveld - Fiduciary duty and global warming

If humanity fails to prevent irreversible global warming, the consequences are not yet fully modeled, but they already look terrifying to unacceptable. To a large extent, the consequences are threefold: freak weather events and events linked to weather changes, a rise of the ocean water level and threats to food security.

They will cause huge numbers of deaths, from babies and the retired dying from heat, to the victims of country-wide wildfires, storms and flooding.

Experts take Bishop’s to school on global warming at La Jolla forum

“All of you are going to need a stiff drink when you go home,” he addressed the audience of 300 mostly adults. “My concern is this. I’m sitting here in a school. The kids are in high school here. In 10 years, they’re finished their college education and settling into a job. And that’s when this thing is going to go into dangerous territory.”

What steps can we take to protect the environment at home level?

What steps can we take to protect the environment at home level?

1)      Turn off the coal power mains electricity to your home & install solar power.

2)    Use any fossil fuel motor vehicles as little as possible.

3)    Grow your own food (if you are keeping ducks in the garden you will need to use raised garden beds or fence sections off & let the ducks in during off season).

4)   Keep chooks & ducks for eggs & meat.

5)    Free range your ducks in the garden area to kill the slogs & snails.

6)   Start a compost heap in your garden.

7)    Feed all your veggie scraps to the chooks & ducks, or, add them to you compost heap.

8)    Grow fruit trees & bushes.

9)   Remove your water toilets & install composting toilets.

10)Install a grey water system that takes the water from the laundry, bathroom & kitchen into deep trenches under you garden beds.

11)   Purchase & install rainwater storage tanks for house & garden & turn off the mains water supply to your home. If you need to conserve water, use containers in your kitchen sink for washing up & use this water on your trees.

12) Recycle as much as possible yourself as recycling collection by the council may be just going into landfill!

13) Try & avoid purchasing food items in plastic wrap.

14)Try & avoid purchasing anything in plastic bottles, choose glass over plastic.

15) DO NOT purchase or accept any single use plastic items.

16)Choose glass or ceramic containers over plastic when practical.

17) DO NOT purchase poisons to kill weeds. Either dig them up by hand or use urine.

18) Only purchase environmentally friendly washing soaps.

19)DO NOT use spray cans of insect repellent or air fresheners.

20)                       DO NOT burn coal.

21) DO NOT burn gas.

22)                        Install a wood burning cook stove ( & heater if you need to heat the house). Burning wood does create carbon emissions, but not as much as coal, gas or using mains electricity. If you plant trees this should offset these carbon emissions.

23)                        DO NOT use an incinerator; put all biodegradables such as lawn grass cuttings, weeds, leaves etc in the compost heap.

24)                       Avoid purchasing anything that has to be transported by truck, ship or plane.

25)                        Avoid flying anywhere.

26)                       Use a push mower if you have lawns to mow. A better option is to turn your lawn into a veggie garden.

27)                       Purchase second hand where you can.

28)                       Move out of the city & live off grid if you can.

Australian government Corruption. Big Coal's network of influence over the coalition government

The coal industry has infiltrated Australia's federal government through a secretive network of ties, working to influence Australia’s political decisions at the highest level: right up to the office of the Prime Minister, Scott Morrison

Big Coal's network of influence over the coalition government

WATCH THE DOCUMENTARY

Why is this so horrifying?

Coal is the number one cause of climate damage. It causes more frequent and intense natural disasters like bushfires while also polluting our water and air. By pandering to the interests of the coal industry, the Coalition Government is putting dirty profits ahead of the health and wellbeing of Australians who want our nation to run on clean energy.

From furthering the fossil-fuelled agenda of current Prime Minister Scott Morrison, to helping to bring about the swift downfall of former Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull: the coal industry has infiltrated the Australian Government at the highest level.

WE’VE UNCOVERED THE WEB OF CONNECTIONS BETWEEN THE WORLD’S BIGGEST COAL GIANTS, INDUSTRY GROUPS, LOBBYISTS AND POWERFUL MEDIA ORGANISATIONS THAT SERVES TO HALT ACTION ON CLIMATE CHANGE AND STALL THE TRANSITION TO CLEAN ENERGY.
