The Epoch of our species own Suicide:
“HUMANS ARE NOW FUNCTIONALLY EXTINCT
The situation is dire in many respects, including poor conditions of sea ice, levels of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere, extreme weather causing droughts, flooding and storms, land suffering from deforestation, desertification, groundwater depletion and increased salinity, and oceans suffering from ocean heat, oxygen depletion, acidification, stratification, etc. These are the conditions that we're already in now.
On top of that, the outlook over the next few years is grim. Circumstances are making the situation even more dire, such as the emerging El Niño, a high peak in sunspots, the Tonga eruption that added a huge amount of water vapor to the atmosphere. Climate models often average out such circumstances, but over the next few years the peaks just seem to be piling up, while the world keeps expanding fossil fuel use and associated infrastructure that increases the Urban Heat Island Effect.
As a result, feedbacks look set to kick in with ever greater ferocity, while developments such as crossing of tipping points could take place with the potential to drive humans (and many other species) into extinction within years. The temperature on land on the Northern Hemisphere may rise so strongly that much traffic, transport and industrial activity could suddenly grind to a halt, resulting in a reduction in cooling aerosols that are now masking the full wrath of global heating. Temperatures could additionally rise due to an increase in warming aerosols and gases as a result of more biomass and waste burning and forest fires.
As a final straw breaking the camel's back, the world keeps appointing omnicidal maniacs who act in conflict with best-available scientific analysis including warnings that humans will likely go fully extinct with a 3°C rise.
From the post 'We are now in the Suicene', at:”
The entire Continent of Africa is being roasted alive along with all its animals:
“The Great African continent suffers under immense heat north to south, east to west. Many places hit 42C plus (107.6F) with Garoua in Cameroon reaching 43.6C (110F). Many places suffering record droughts and crop failures.”
Still think the planet isn’t dying? The entire continent of Africa is getting roasted off the face of the earth together with a mega drought.
America is likely to be next

Reflecting the values of the U.S. antiquated leadership cabal:
“Afghanistan is now effectively one of the biggest prisons in the world for women,” says @zantimes editor-in-chief Zahra Nader about the development of “gender apartheid” under the Taliban government.”

Caitlin Johnstone:
“HAHAHAHAHAHA holy shit, the Biden administration was trying to help the International Criminal Court compile evidence of Russian war crimes but the Pentagon made them stop because it might lead to ICC prosecution of American war crimes.”

Don’t forget the politicians, judges, lobbyist, think tankstaff, etc. at ALL levels of government:
“New climate paper calls for charging big US oil firms with homicide
Authors of paper accepted for publication in Harvard Environmental Law Review argue firms are ‘killing members of the public at an accelerating rate’”
