I think the only advantage to the smoke in the air is that it cuts solar radiation from reaching the surface. But then the health problems it's causing isn't a good way for us to live in. The fires burn trees and release carbon into the air. Plus cuts the foliage that absorbed carbon dioxide. So the math is bad. It's not unforeseeable that human civilizations could collapse if we can't keep electricity grids functioning, nor produce enough clean water. We are on a tightrope here, and most in society go about their days expecting everything to keep working.I think that we might be able to slow CC down, and even make life in cities more bearable and healthy, but I don't think we can stop CC now.
I often wonder about the massive carbon input that the huge fires are causing, world-wide.... they must be accelerating the problem quite quickly; what do you think?
This is the first episode of Connections by James Burke back in the late 70's, Even then he pointed out the technology trap of modern civilization. If anyone has time to watch the for 30 minutes it's pretty illuminating and scary.
Imagine to lost wealth of property owners. Who will pay?It might be time to prepare for the high sea level rises, the changeable weather patterns, all gloom and doom from me, I'm sad to say.
