We have exceeded 1.5c warming.
"I think it's safe to say that both 2023 and 2024 temperatures surprised most climate scientists - we didn't think we'd be seeing a year above 1.5C this early," says Dr Hausfather.
"Since 2023 we've had around 0.2C of extra warming that we can't fully explain, on top of what we had expected from climate change and El Niño," agrees Helge Gößling, a climate physicist at the Alfred Wegener Institute in Germany.
.2C of extra warming since 2023.
substantially reduce global greenhouse gas emissions to hold global temperature increase to well below 2°C above pre-industrial levels and pursue efforts to limit it to 1.5°C above pre-industrial levels, recognizing that this would significantly reduce the risks and impacts of climate change - The Paris Agreement
It really recontextualizes the nature of capital. Tbf, I read it on acid at a formative age, but it just makes so much sense.
well if it makes you feel better ive never done any hallucinogenic lol. regardless, one of the things i find most interesting about it is viewing capital in this way actually gives an incentive to the bourgeoisie to bring down capitalism. idk if you could actually use this to convince someone in that class, but more engels types in our desperate situation certainly wouldnt hurt, so i say if you happen to know a member of the bourgeoisie it's worth a shot to send it to them lol
It does a bit lol, but I wasn’t torn up about it either.
Precisely, the clerics of SQL do so much to convince their patrons to appease the deity rather than engaging in rational self interest. The rich don’t actually directly engage these days, the clerical caste has more control over capital than those who own it under capitalism.
I guess it depends on how you look at it, there's a perspective where it makes total sense to give control to the priests, because they make line go up quite well tbh. i guess im saying you need to appeal to that independent "i am the master of everything!!!" side a lot of the bourgeoisie have lol.
