Human ‘behavioural crisis’ at root of climate breakdown, say scientists
I would like to bring the discussion back to the original topic instead of discuss the politics of climate change. The topic is the behavioral root from which the crisis or the presumed crisis appeared to make sense.
I was a liberal back in the 1970's. It was the hippie and love generation. It was time of going back to simplicity and nature; communes. In a sense, what are being sold downsize fossils fuels; back to commune living, are the needed steps to end man made climate change; throw back to the communes of the 1960's and 1970's.
That time for the Baby Boomers, was about a simple natural life with little need for drilling and fossil fuels. We could live off the land, like modern homesteaders; more Conservative now. This could be part of the behavioral root since climate change was not a big deal back then, but rather the push was to become natural again and avoid the excesses of materialism. The needed changes, said to combat the manmade climate change emergency, will amount to that for many more people, as fossil fuel based economies are sent to the Stone Age.
Even back then, Big Oil was an enemy of Liberalism, but not due to climate change. Big Oil was a symbol of killing mother earth; black liquid from the deep, drilling and using up all the oil; Jimmy Carter oil shortages of the late 1970's. Those manufactured shortages would force changes in auto compliance and all things fossil fuel related; clean air. The young people of that time would now be in the their 60's and 70's, many in government power, with the chip on the shoulder for big oil, still there.
There were many tactics to kill Big Oil, from using and inventing new environmental laws to delay and make oil wells more expensive. There was also protests about new gasoline refineries, such that we still have only a few gasoline refineries dating from the 1960's.
Climate change was a lucky break and sen as the final big gun, that could take out Big Oil. Big Oil refused to pay Democrat Politicians, due to so many decade of harassment and legal costs. The Big Oil moving target is a linear root; nemesis, to the Democrats. I was once hypnotized thinking this was about the earth and not just money and wielding power against enemies.
This root fixation on Big Oil, could also explain why El Niño is being blamed on manmade climate change, even though its climate altering effect has been around since at least the 1600's, way before Big Oil. El Niño appears to be connected to the geological ring of fire of active crustal plates below the rim of the Pacific Ocean.
On the right, the ocean heat of the ring of fire, is rising into the oceans and atmosphere and pulling in air toward rising heat. When thunderstorms form the warm air rises and it gets windy as new air is pulled into the vacuum left behind.
The problem is this natural occurrence, although a big player in climate change, it will not stick it to Big Oil, nor can it can used as a pretense to control economies, by controlling their fossil fuel dependency. This ring of fire observation does not preclude climate change or the warming of the earth, but it places a natural effect near the forefront; natural El Niño can control the climate. Science has this well documented.
If you look at the ring of fire graph, east of Australia and find the Tonga trench (below where it says equator), there was a huge set of underwater volcanic explosions from Dec 2021 to Jan 2022, one of which was the most powerful explosion ever witness by modern instruments. It blew enough water into the atmosphere to alter the world's climate last summer; extreme heat zones not predicted by any computer model, also leading to all the extra rain water that needed to fall to earth last summer. Water even reached the stratosphere, adding an extra 10% to the usual total water, there. The ozone layer was even affected. The explosion can seen at the Wiki link below.
Why did fake news not make a big deal? Why did fake news go radio silent and why did they let the summer of 2022 be blamed on Big Oil and manmade? The hate of Big Oil appears to be a root cause that causes even science to lie for revenge; root cause appears to be Big Oil not being subdues for 70 years years and now there is a chance unless the earth fixes the delusion.
