https://www.cnn.com/2018/11/23/health/climate-change-report-bn/index.html

A new US government report delivers a dire warning about climate change and its devastating impacts on the health and economy of the country.

The federally mandated study was released by the Trump administration on Friday, at a time when many Americans are on a long holiday weekend, distracted by family and shopping.

Coming from the US Global Change Research Program, a team of 13 federal agencies, the Fourth National Climate Assessment was put together with the help of 1,000 people, including 300 leading scientists.

It's the second of two volumes. The first, released in November 2017, concluded that there is "no convincing alternative explanation" for the changing climate other than "human activities, especially emissions of greenhouse gases."

The report's findings run counter to President Donald Trump's consistent message that climate change is a hoax.

On Wednesday, Trump tweeted, "Whatever happened to Global Warming?" as some Americans faced the coldest Thanksgiving in over a century.

But the science explained in these and other federal government reports is clear: Climate change is not disproved by the extreme weather of one day or a week; it's demonstrated by long-term trends. Humans are living with the warmest temperatures in modern history. Even if the best-case scenario were to happen and greenhouse gas emissions were to drop to nothing, the world is on track to warm 1.1 degrees Fahrenheit.

As of now, not a single G20 country is meeting climate targets, research shows.

The costs of climate change could reach hundreds of billions of dollars annually, according to the report. The Southeast alone will probably lose over a half a billion labor hours by 2100 due to extreme heat.

Farmers will face extremely tough times. The quality and quantity of their crops will decline across the country due to higher temperatures, drought and flooding. In parts of the Midwest, farms will be able to produce less than 75% of the corn they produce today, and the southern part of the region could lose more than 25% of its soybean yield.

Heat stress could cause average dairy production to fall between 0.60% and 1.35% over the next 12 years -- having already cost the industry $1.2 billion from heat stress in 2010.

When it comes to shellfish there will be a $230 million loss by the end of the century due to ocean acidification, which is already killing off shellfish and corals. Red tides, or algae bloom that deplete oxygen in the water and can kill sea life -- like those that triggered a state of emergency in Florida in August -- will become more frequent.

Higher temperatures will also kill more people, the report says. The Midwest, which is predicted to have the largest increase in extreme temperature, alone will see an additional. 2,000 premature deaths per year by 2090.

There will be more mosquito- and tickborne diseases like Zika, dengue and chikungunya. West Nile cases are expected to more than double by 2050 due to increasing temperatures.

Expect asthma and allergies to be worse due to climate change.

No one's health is immune from climate change, the report concludes. People will be exposed to more foodborne and waterborne diseases. Particularly vulnerable to higher temperatures in the summer, children, the elderly, the poor and communities of color will be at a much greater risk for illness and death.

Wildfire seasons -- already longer and more destructive than before -- could burn up to six times more forest area annually by 2050 in parts of the United States.

Continued:
Dependable and safe water for the Hawaii, the Caribbean and others are threatened by these rising temperatures.

Along the US coasts, public infrastructure and $1 trillion in national wealth held in real estate are threatened by rising sea levels, flooding and storm surges.

Energy systems will be taxed, meaning more blackouts and power failures, and the potential loss in some sectors could reach hundreds of billions of dollars per year by the end of the century, the report said.

Sea levels have already gone up 7 to 8 inches since 1900. Almost half that rise has been since 1993, a rate of rise greater than during any century in the past 2,800 years. Some countries are already seeing land underwater.

The report was created to inform policy-makers and makes no specific recommendations on how to remedy the problem. However, it suggests that if the United States immediately reduced its fossil fuel use and greenhouse gas emissions, it could save thousands of lives and generate billions of dollars in benefits for the country.

The Defense Department is trying to understand what risk climate change poses to security. But the Trump administration has signaled that the country will pull out of international initiatives like the Paris climate accord, aimed at lowering global temperatures, claiming that these treaties have been unfair for the US economy.

A report from the UN in October urged all governments to take "rapid, far-reaching and unprecedented changes in all aspects of society" to avoid disaster from climate change. That report predicted that the Earth will reach the crucial threshold of 1.5 degrees Celsius (2.7 degrees Fahrenheit) above pre-industrial levels by as early as 2030. It also suggested the world faces a risk of extreme drought, wildfires, floods and food shortages for hundreds of millions of people.

Reactions to the new report have been strong across the scientific community.

"If we're going to run this country like a business, it's time to address climate as the threat multiplier we know it is before more lives are lost," said Robert Bullard, an environmental scientist at Texas Southern University.

"In Houston, communities of color have endured back to back major weather events without the acknowledgment from Washington that climate change is the cause. We've known for years that it's true and it's important to our organizing and our local policy efforts that information like this is not only considered, but believed and acted upon."
...
"The findings in the Trump administration's NCA report show how the health and daily lives of Americans are becoming more and more interrupted because of climate change," said Beverly Wright, founding director of the Deep South Center for Environmental Justice and a professor at Dillard University. "We challenge the administration to finally begin using this information to rebuild and strengthen the communities in the direct path of the atrocities wrought by the fossil fuel industry and decades of poor policies that have neglected our concerns. The science is undeniable, let's fix it."

Hmm, it's no longer on the front page of CNN on desktop and it dropped to the 6th article down on mobile. Looks like CNN's burying it quickly.

In any case, can't deny that these types of articles aren't common place these days. It was only a few weeks ago that the really provactive article was published in Nature and circulated heavily everywhere.

An article on the geographical implications of this:
https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2018-11-23/climate-may-force-millions-to-move-and-u-s-isn-t-ready-report
Global warming may push millions of Americans away from the coast, and the U.S. isnt prepared for the consequences of such a mass migration, scientists from across the federal government warned on Friday.

Sea level rise might reshape the U.S. population distribution, the scientists wrote in a sweeping report on climate change. The potential need for millions of people and billions of dollars of coastal infrastructure to be relocated in the future creates challenging legal, financial, and equity issues that have not yet been addressed.
...
The prospect and consequences of large-scale migration receive more attention this year than in past editions of the report. In 2014, for example, the section on the Northeast U.S. made no mention of people being forced to move. In the version released on Friday, migration was a large focus.

Coastal states such as Massachusetts, New Jersey, and New York are anticipated to see large outflows of migrants, a pattern that would stress regional locations further inland, the authors write. City leaders hope to avoid forced migration of highly vulnerable populations and the loss of historical and cultural resources.

Yet those movements are all but certain to take place, not just in the Northeast but around the country. In all but the very lowest sea level rise projections, retreat will become an unavoidable option in some areas of the U.S. coastline, the authors wrote.

The reports section on coastal states is even more explicit about the social, legal and economic challenges posed by the movement of large numbers of people. Communities face difficult questions about determining who will pay for current impacts and future adaptation and mitigation strategies and if, how, or when to relocate, the report warns.

The decision about when and how to flee the effects of climate change depends on emotional factors as well.

Coastal communities have ties to their specific land and to each other, as is the case from the bayous of Louisiana, to the beaches of New Jersey, to the sea islands of South Carolina and Georgia, according to the report. These ties can impede peoples ability and willingness to move away from impacted areas.

The federal government has haltingly begun preparing to move whole communities from the coast. In 2016, the Obama administration gave $48 million to Louisiana to move a small village inland. The administration also tried to establish an interagency working group to develop policies to support managed retreat from the coast. After Donald Trump became president, the group stopped meeting.

While the timing and speed of climate migration is uncertain, the authors warn that this much is clear: The parts of the country most exposed to climate change havent put enough thought or money into preparing for it. They note that coastal communities have been slow to look at preventing development in risky areas, or retreating from those areas.

The scale of adaptation implementation for some effects and locations seems incommensurate with the projected scale of climate threats, the authors wrote in the report.

*yawn*

There's been reports saying this shit for 20+ years now. Many of their supposed "we have to do something by [date] or we're doomed" deadlines have passed without the end of the world.

If y'all can't seriously see this is just taking the "Jesus is coming, the end is here" street preachers, replacing the religious elements with pseudoscience, and giving it a platform, you probably should stop trying to discuss serious subjects.


Climate change is certainly a problem, but the good news is that we are going to solve it and none of these apocalyptic things will come to pass.


What comrade proudclad says is true. We will seize the means of production, then stop producing pollutants. Once again, glorious communism solves a catastrophic problem.


Proudclad and his communism solutions to save the day.
