Discussion of climate, how it is changing, activism around that, the politics, and the energy systems change we need in order to stabilize things.

As a starting point, the burning of fossil fuels, and to a lesser extent deforestation and release of methane are responsible for the warming in recent decades: Graph of temperature as observed with significant warming, and simulated without added greenhouse gases and other anthropogentic changes, which shows no significant warming

How much each change to the atmosphere has warmed the world: IPCC AR6 Figure 2 - Thee bar charts: first chart: how much each gas has warmed the world.  About 1C of total warming.  Second chart:  about 1.5C of total warming from well-mixed greenhouse gases, offset by 0.4C of cooling from aerosols and negligible influence from changes to solar output, volcanoes, and internal variability.  Third chart: about 1.25C of warming from CO2, 0.5C from methane, and a bunch more in small quantities from other gases.  About 0.5C of cooling with large error bars from SO2.

Recommended actions to cut greenhouse gas emissions in the near future:

Anti-science, inactivism, and unsupported conspiracy theories are not ok here.

feminist supremacism

Oh dear, did I miss the point where that part came in somehow?

Jordan Peterson has some expertise in criticizing some wings of Academia, even as he ignores the "Ayn Randism" other wing of academic social programming. In hunger for celebrity, he starts to dumb down extremist slogans, and accept bribes for other right wing messages. Instead of academia reform proponent, he becomes a conservative political vote manipulator, and espouses all things conservative for conservative supremacism, instead of sticking to truths/problems about feminist supremacism.

Global warming has nothing to do with whether men should be allowed to complain about culture/society. It is by definition supremacism, that they should not be allowed to. That men who have issues and may agree with some of Jordan Petersen's expert points, somehow makes them all invalid voters/people because Jordan Petersen has chosen to deny global warming, is both a very stupid thing to say, and something that will antagonize the other stupid into thinking "climate alarmists think all men are evil".

It's not the job of the rest of us to coddle fragile men. I'm saying this as a man. Grow up.
