No more irreversible! Countdown in the climate disaster

One of the leading climatic scientists in the world. Dr. James Hansen announced that the goal of preventing a 2 -degree increase, which has been accepted as threshold for global warming, has been completely removed. According to a new analysis put forward by Hansen, the climate is much larger than the thought of increasing sensitivity to fossil fuel emissions. According to independent experts, the results show that extreme weather events will come earlier. In his speech at the University of Columbia in 1988 for the first time in 1988, Hansen made warnings against the climate crisis and revealed a critical threshold of 1.5 degrees.

Prof. Dr. James Hansen raised 1.5 -degree warming in 1988 compared to the pre -industrial revolution in global warming.

It accelerated even more

“Inter -Government Climate Change Panel (IPPC), the warning is below 2 degrees to remain below 2 percent of the script for the scenario” no longer impossible “description. The new analysis, global warming is likely to reach 2 degrees by 2045. Countries that signed the Paris Climate Agreement promised to limit the increase in global temperature to 1.5 degrees compared to pre -industrial levels.. However, the climate crisis accelerated the worldwide extreme weather events much more than calculated.

“We must say the truth”

Columbia University in the team. Jeffrey Sachs “ironicly, even if pollutants decreased, heating has increased shocking. Now we have a new basis for the point where we are”; Hansen’s team “IWe should express the incompetence of existing policies aimed at preventing global warming in the climate evaluation.“He made a statement. According to the assessment, IPCC analysis is largely based on computer models.

El Nino cycle

Prof. Dr. In the research of James Hansen and his team, the following statements are emphasized in 2024 and the following statements are given: “The world has seen extraordinary temperatures for the last two years. The summit of the El Nino climate cycle in 2024 added an extra temperature increase. However, these two factors do not fully explain the continuation of extreme temperatures or El Nino in the middle of 2024.. This requires climate scientists to ask if there is a new factor that has not been taken into account before. “

Hansen argues that research to cool the Earth should be supported by using controversial geo-music techniques to prevent sunlight. Hansen, who calls this technology “Global Cooling”, said, “We do not recommend the application of climate interventions, but should be informed about the potential and limitations of global cooling,” he said.

Glaciers will melt quickly!

Hansen’s group also argues that the accelerated global warming they envision will increase the melting of glaciers in Antarctica. The team makes the following emphasis on glaciers: “As a result, unless measures are taken to reduce global warming, contrary to the results of the IPCC, the Atlantic Meridian Diimi will be closed in the next 20-30 years. If AMOC is allowed to close, this will cause major problems such as rising a few meters of sea level. For this reason, we define the closure of Amoc as ‘irreversible point’.“The estimation of another recent study on the timing of Amoc’s collapse pointed to 2050 years.
