April 11, 2024"As the U.S. gets hotter, its <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/coastal" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#coastal</a> waters rise higher, its <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/wildfires" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#wildfires</a> burn larger and its <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/droughts" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#droughts</a> last longer, the notion that humankind can triumph over <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/nature" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#nature</a> is fading, and with it, slowly, goes the belief that self-determination and personal preference can be the driving factors in choosing where to live. Scientific modeling of these pressures suggest a sweeping change is coming in the shape and location of communities across America, a change that promises to transform the country’s politics, culture and economy."It has already begun. More Americans are displaced by catastrophic <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/ClimateChange" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#ClimateChange</a> driven storms and floods and fires every year. The Internal Displacement Monitoring Centre, the global nongovernmental organization researchers rely on to measure the number of people forcibly cast out of their homes by natural disasters, counted very few displaced Americans in 2009, 2010 and 2011, years in which few natural disasters struck the <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/UnitedStates" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#UnitedStates</a>. But by 2016 the numbers had begun to surge, with between 1 million and 1.7 million newly displaced people annually. The disasters and heat waves each year have become legion. But the statistics show the human side of what has appeared to be a turning point in both the severity and frequency of wildfires and <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/hurricanes" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#hurricanes</a>. As the number of displaced people continues to grow, an ever-larger portion of those affected will make their moves permanent, migrating to safer ground or supportive communities. They will do so either because a singular disaster like the 2018 wildfire in Paradise, California — or Hurricane Harvey, which struck the Texas and Louisiana coasts — is so destructive it forces them to, or because the subtler 'slow onset' change in their surroundings gradually grows so intolerable, uncomfortable or inconvenient that they make the decision to leave, proactively, by choice. In a 2021 study published in the journal Climatic Change, researchers found that 57% of the Americans they surveyed believed that changes in their climate would push them to consider a move sometime in the next decade."<a href="https://www.propublica.org/article/climate-migration-louisiana-slidell-flooding?utm_source=pocket-newtab-en-us" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no">https://www.propublica.org/article/climate-migration-louisiana-slidell-flooding?utm_source=pocket-newtab-en-us</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/ClimateCrisis" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#ClimateCrisis</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/RisingSeaLevels" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#RisingSeaLevels</a>

notBread 🏴‍☠️The US government is disregarding international institutions in preparation for the inevitable. When their military starts murdering climate migrants for the crime of being born on the wrong piece of dirt. The dismantling of the UN and other international bodies will only further the goal of the US solidifying its national security. The US government's inaction on the climate crises is defending profits of its own companies at the expense of the rest of the world. This policy choice will cause more climate catastrophe and more migrants will try to go to the US, only to be met with tanks and missiles. <a href="https://www.whitehouse.gov/briefing-room/statements-releases/2021/10/21/fact-sheet-prioritizing-climate-in-foreign-policy-and-national-security/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no">https://www.whitehouse.gov/briefing-room/statements-releases/2021/10/21/fact-sheet-prioritizing-climate-in-foreign-policy-and-national-security/</a>[ <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/USpol" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#USpol</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/climateMigration" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#climateMigration</a> ]

There will be a mass-migration of hundreds of millions of people through the SE Asian archipelago. A lot of them will resettle in Australia. <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/auspol" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#auspol</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/ClimateMigration" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#ClimateMigration</a>

TobiWanKenobi"The prognosis for the survival of a large proportion of extant species is not good. Our review lays out arguments clearly demonstrating that there is a biodiversity crisis, quite probably the start of the Sixth Mass Extinction. Dedicated conservation biologists and conservation agencies are doing what they can, focused mainly on threatened birds and mammals, among which some species may be saved from the extinction that would otherwise ensue. But we are pessimistic about the fate of most of the Earth's biodiversity, much of which is going to vanish without us ever knowing of its existence."Source: <a href="https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.1111/brv.12816" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no">https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.1111/brv.12816</a>A study about the Sixth Mass Extinction from 2022 but still as accurate, alerting and pressing as ever. Which is why I wanted to boost it here.I feel like it's one of the parts about climate change and human folly that is often disregarded for no apparent reason.<a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/ClimateCrisis" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#ClimateCrisis</a> will lead to many deaths and conflicts, especially (and mostly unjustified) in the global south, the ones suffering from the global north's colonialist bullshittery. But, many don't seem to have in mind that if, for example, bees are gone, flowers won't get pollinated. Ask the Chinese people about it. Earth's biosphere is intertwined in a very complex manner and us humans are just a small part of it, even if we may believe otherwise.At the rate, species are currently vanishing, I find it highly alerting that it's being ignored by most media, except for those deeply involved with <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/climatechange" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#climatechange</a> and <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/nature" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#nature</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/climate" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#climate</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/UprootTheSystem" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#UprootTheSystem</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/degrowth" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#degrowth</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/globalwarming" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#globalwarming</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/globalheating" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#globalheating</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/heatwaves" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#heatwaves</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/floods" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#floods</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/ClimateMigration" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#ClimateMigration</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/ClimateStrike" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#ClimateStrike</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/ClimateAction" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#ClimateAction</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/ClimateActionNow" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#ClimateActionNow</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/ClimateJustice" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#ClimateJustice</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/ClimateJusticeNow" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#ClimateJusticeNow</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Earth" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#Earth</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/environment" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#environment</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/savetheplanet" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#savetheplanet</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/savetheearth" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#savetheearth</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/savetheocean" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#savetheocean</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/savethebees" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#savethebees</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/savethetrees" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#savethetrees</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/science" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#science</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/insects" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#insects</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/animals" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#animals</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/biosphere" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#biosphere</a>
