The world confirmed to end by 2050 due to global warming

Nations have delayed curbing their fossil-fuel emissions for so long that they can no longer stop global warming from intensifying over the next 30 years, though there is still a short window to prevent the most harrowing future, a major new United Nations scientific report has concluded.

Even if nations started sharply cutting emissions today, total global warming is likely to rise around 1.5 degrees Celsius within the next two decades, a hotter future that is now essentially locked in.

At 1.5 degrees of warming, scientists have found, the dangers grow considerably. Nearly 1 billion people worldwide could swelter in more frequent life-threatening heat waves. Hundreds of millions more would struggle for water because of severe droughts. Some animal and plant species alive today will be gone. Coral reefs, which sustain fisheries for large swaths of the globe, will suffer more frequent mass die-offs.

“There’s no going back from some changes in the climate system,” said Ko Barrett, a vice-chair of the panel and a senior adviser for climate at the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration.

humanity can still prevent the planet from getting even hotter. Doing so would require a coordinated effort among countries to stop adding carbon dioxide to the atmosphere by around 2050, which would entail a rapid shift away from fossil fuels starting immediately, as well as potentially removing vast amounts of carbon from the air. If that happened, global warming would likely halt and level off at around 1.5 degrees Celsius, the report concludes.

We have about 30 more years of normal life left according to this, and by 2050 the world as we know it, assuming no changes are made, will be very different than today. If you have kids or grandkids, they will be growing up in this new post apocalyptic world.

Discuss and debate amongst yourselves while I kick back and relax from afar.

Theyve been saying this for the last decade. We'll see if and when it happens.

The Corona pandemic lockdown was the best thing that could happen to the climate and environment in general.

It is a new Judgement Day or Y2K - a way for bureaucrats and mega corporations to launder money on megaprojects and take totalitarian control over population for the sake of their "safety".

According to these same lunatics, the world has been x number of years from ending since before I was born. Man cannot do anything bad enough to destroy the planet.

Since at least the 60s, those in power have been doing this...

So we might have to wait almost 30 years for this to happen? Well that's just disappointing. :tmad:

I will say that I always thought that the idea of gardens on top of buildings and future architecture that blends in with nature was a no brainer.

Like... I can't even compute that there would be resistance to doing that over shingled or tar roofing... :lol:

I'd live with a "green garden" roof if I could.

Imagine making fun of CNN but posting Fox News unironically

One reps the left and the other reps the right, but Fox News isn't even remotely the agenda filled hate-fest that CNN is....

What has Skeletor with this to do?

Worthless troll.
There is a difference between not believing in "end of the world" as predicted by "experts" and continuing to pollute.

Also, I hardly believe that you lead a clean "green" life, which means, you are not only a bad troll, but also a hypocrite.

I dunno, but I thought it was hysterical to be honest.....

[frank_one]

This has happened today. Global warming is real, my friends:

Did you even click the twitter feed? There is no "end of the world" mentioned, you fell for Cubed's trolling, it only says that in 30 years things will be more extreme and in a no going back point, which is nothing new and stuff we've known. We don't need a UN report to know it's official, we've had data for decades.

I do live my life trying to make my carbon footprint the smallest I can, I'm not going to go off grid and live from nature, that's an extreme but I do more than the average person to be green. Of course I know I contribute to pollution but it's a big difference to say someone who tries not to sin but will of course sin and someone who "oh well we're all sinners so we might as well rape and kill people"

If I'm a troll and you take the bait what does that make you?

[The Deadman]

According to that article about Italy, they're also no stranger to intense heat...so in other words theyre kinda used to it.

Thanks, I needed a laugh this morning...

And no-one denies it, my friend!

Its just there is a gap between "climate change" and "WORLD ENDS IN X AMOUNT OF YEARS!!", don't you agree?

One is the factual statement, another - is empty sensationalist ********, created to fear-monger people.

What a smart comparison between carbon footprint and killing and raping.
This forum needs a facepalm smiley.

If I'm a troll and you take the bait what does that make you?
Did I took the bait?
Or did I call you out on it?

I still have time to become a game developer! Gecco!

Beloved CyberCubed please do not forget to include the Mayas

Besides: Well played, again. Polarizing and stuff, you know

Soooo I guess I was born at the perfect time. By the time we reach this point I'll be well beyond my prime and just coasting until the end. Assuming I'm lucky enough to hold on that long.

80s kids, we really were the best. People born twenty years before me will be gone before the tipping point, and people twenty years after will be resentful that they don't have more time living on the "good" version of Earth.

As we inch towards 2050 i'll be stocking up on popcorn, what else is there to do at this point.

[IMJ]

what else is there to do at this point.

At this point? Continue to go on with life in whatever fashion you deem "normal" until it's not possible anymore.

That's basically what I plan on doing until reaching the point where there is no choice but to show a physical resistance to whatever is going on.

I always said we were the best generation. We were born in the right place at the right time with the best technology of the world to date and after our parents gen which still seems very "old" if you were to go back to it now.

Granted it's obvious humans will continue in the world, we've overcome an ice age before obviously, and any serious climate change will be adapted to. If worse does come to worse, well, too bad for anyone who is planning on having grandchildren as they'll be living in the year 2050-2100+.
