christophwarner<p>Just finished the REVENGE of the TIPPING POINT by Macolm Gladwell. It's really interesting in the context of our current political climate but also around things as facetious as Linux on the Desktop or Artificial intelligence. It's hard to observe and participate in some of these group-think related tipping points while also trying to be introspective without feeling as if you are part of the problem. Or worse, becoming apathetic or putting your hands over your ears and pretending everything is fine.</p><p>His end quote has rung a bell in me however, "The tools necessary to control an epidemic are sitting on the table, right in front of us. We can let the unscrupulous take them. Or we can pick them up ourselves, and use them to build a better world". Sometimes, those of us with the abilities or talent or voice just need someone to remind us it seems.</p><p>Tipping points are fabricated, engineered, built and that's OUR lane. </p><p><a href="https://discuss.systems/tags/tippingpoint" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>tippingpoint</span></a> <a href="https://discuss.systems/tags/MalcomGladwell" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>MalcomGladwell</span></a> <a href="https://discuss.systems/tags/goodread" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>goodread</span></a></p>

Sounds Vegan[Originally posted August, 6th 2021]<br> <br> Let's get one thing straight: if we don't switch up our behaviour soon, we're screwed. The way we're living right now? It's a ticking time bomb for civilisation.<br> <br> When climate scientists say stuff like:<br> <br> "I would never have thought that the signs of destabilisation would appear so quickly. I find it truly frightening. It is not something that one can simply sit back and watch."<br> <br> …we better listen up!<br> <br> That quote is from Niklas Boers at the Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research (PIK).

O=C=O<p>Computer simulations show nightmare Atlantic current shutdown less likely this century</p><p>If the <a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/AMOC" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>AMOC</span></a> weakens but not fully collapses, many of the same impacts—including crop losses and changes in fish stock—likely will still happen, but not the big headline one of Europe going into a deep freeze, Baker said.</p><p>Scientists measure the AMOC strength in a unit called Sverdrups. The AMOC is now around 17 <a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/Sverdrups" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Sverdrups</span></a>, down two from about 2004 with a trend of about 0.8 decline per decade, scientists said.</p><p>One of the debates in the scientific world is the definition of an AMOC shutdown. Baker uses zero, but other scientists who have been warning about the shutdown implications, use about 5 Sverdrups. Three of Baker's 34 computer models went below 5 Sverdrups, but not to zero.</p><p>That's why Levke Caesar and Stefan Rahmstorf, physicists at the Potsdam Institute for Climate Research and authors of an alarming 2018 study about potential shutdown, said this new work doesn't contradict theirs. It's more a matter of definitions.</p><p>"An AMOC collapse does not have to mean 0 (Sverdrups) overturning and even if you would want to follow that definition one has to say that such a strong AMOC weakening comes with a lot (of) impacts," Caesar wrote in an email.
