Greetings to everyone! I hope this week’s post finds all of you doing well. For the time being, the tropical Atlantic is quiet, but that could change over the next few weeks. In the meantime, I will share some infographics on preparing an emergency kit that will be helpful in any tropical storm or hurricane scenario. There are many other essential and important reads to review, so let’s get…

The climate worldwide was getting colder and colder and the sky was turning violet. Later on, news stations started reporting that there were clouds at ground level. Turned out this was all happening because Earth somehow went out of orbit.

New IPCC report (March 20, 2023)
The newest report by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) was published on the 20th of March 2023.
Read the synthesis report, or check out the IPCC's YouTube channel if reading isn't your thing.
Climate YouTubers Zentouro and ClimateAdam have also released a short summary video of the report.
(If you're currently dealing with climate anxiety, you may want to skip these reports.)

Rain expected Sunday and Monday…
You know why?! Because my neck of the woods (southern California) is kinda sort of in the path of a hurricane named Hilary! For the first time a hurricane is going to breeze on by since the 1970s. It shouldn’t do more than rain per the weather reports… but you know, fuck you capitalism and thanks for destroying the climate.
I love rain with all my little black heart. I’m not worried, I just hope everyone is unscathed as it goes by and we get to soak up some good water.
I’m just anxious about how rapidly climate change is now wreaking havoc all over the globe and becoming increasingly dangerous to the people on this planet, especially the impoverished and just how quickly a flood or fire can destroy someone’s home and render their assets worthless.

Umbrella: Abortion Funds
For the past three years, FTH has supported one “umbrella” cause: we invite participants to donate to their own local grassroots organization, while also suggesting a handful of exemplary organizations working in in communities where the need is especially acute. This year (like last year) this umbrella category is abortion funds.
Abortion funds are grassroots nonprofits dedicated to supporting reproductive justice in their communities. These organizations provide financial, logistical and emotional support for people seeking abortions, and work to build collective power to create political and cultural change around reproductive freedom.
Our 2023 selections for the umbrella group was compiled with assistance from Kiki, a digital engagement manager for an abortion support nonprofit and the co-founder and editor-in-chief of the (now-defunct) site The Learned Fangirl. (Please feel free to reach out to her on twitter @kdc if you have any questions about abortion funds!)
Buckle Bunnies Fund
Indigenous Women Rising
Kentucky Health Justice Network
Abortion Fund of Ohio
New Orleans Abortion Fund
     _     _     _     _     _     _     _     _     _     _     _     _     _     _     _     _     _
Organizations marked with an asterisk (*) allow for international donations directly through their websites. The orgs without asterisks may take international donations through a paypal or venmo account. If you are a non-US-based bidder/donor and you are having trouble finding an organization to which you can donate, please email us directly at fandomtrumpshate @ gmail . com.

So, the The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, IPCC, the group of international experts that the UN has set up to study Climate Change, launched their last report a few days ago. And things are increasingly grim. You can read the summary of the summary here. These are the key points:
The planet already warmed 1.1ºC from the pre-industrial (1850-1900) average as a direct consecuence of human activities.
At the current point, it's impossible to avoid getting to 1.5ºC raise already. That's already unavoidable.
It's going to be very hard to not surpass 2ºC.
The policies being adopted worldwide are inconsistent and insuficient.
To limit the heating to 1.5ºC (which, I must say, 15 years ago was considered "the worst scenario we could shot for") we need the WORLDWIDE CO2 emissions to be cut down by 43% ... by 2030. And 85% by 2050.
And now is where I need to give you some context. Even with the climate policies that have been implemented around the world in the last few years, the global CO2 emission have NEVER gone down consistently. We are just slowing down the rate at which they grow. Even in 2020, with the ... you know, global economy coming to a halt for months, the emissions only got down by 5% from 2019 levels. And in 2021, they went up to the same level again:
Tumblr media
To avoid going overshooting a 1.5ºC raise by the end of the century, we need to cut down emissions to ... 1971 levels. In 6 years and a half. That's stepping on the brake pedal HARD, and NOW. Fuck.
FUCK.
Now, a still hard but more feasible scenario is "we don't manage to reduce emissions, but manage to stop them from keep growing and keep the current levels" (again, we are FAR from even achieving that, emissions keep growing every year, at a quick pace). That's what the IPCC calls the SSP2-4.5 scenario. And ... that would mean about a 3ºC raise by the end of the century:
Tumblr media
I'm not exagerating when saying that a 3ºC scenario may not put at risk the human existence, but it seriously put at risk the survival of literal billions of people and would mean the end of our global civilization as we know it. Why? because of this, also from the report:
Tumblr media
The first bit is scary AS hell. If you haven't heard about the wet-bulb effect, it's one of the most scary thing I've ever read about. Long story short, when our bodies overheat, they use sweat to cool down. The sweat on our skin evaporates, and by doing it, it cools our skin and cool our overall body temperature. Now, the sweat takes more time to evaporate when the external humidity is high, to a point where if the humidity is too high, it doesn't evaporate at all. So if the ambiental humidity is high, our bodies can't cool down effectively.
And this is the scary part: If the external temperature is too high, and the humidity is too high, your body gets heated by the ambiental heat, but can't cool itself down by sweating. So at a certain point... your body just shut down and you die. It doesn't matter how young or healthy you are: That only change how long of exposure to extreme conditions takes to bring you down, but you die anyway.
Now take a look at this:
Tumblr media
The number up there is the projections of how many days per year where the combination of external temperature and humidity would make human life impossible. Even at 1.7ºC warming, some of the most populated areas of the planet (coastal India, south Asia, Phillipines, Java, etc) will be uncompatible with human life for half the year. That's a couple of billion people that either relocate or die. And that's with the absurdly optimistic expectation that we can go back to 1971 emission levels in ten years or so.
And then it's the second part, the food production impacts. At 1.7ºC, the corn production of US and China will be down by about 15%.
Tumblr media
At 3ºC? by 30-35%. Any other crop you can think about is in the same situation. This means famines. Famines as they have never been seen in recorded human history (as they are not caused by puntual events like pests, weather or mismanagement: They will be structural, permanent).
And folks, this is not politics, this is not being paranoid. This is a group of scientists doing peer-reviewed science. This is not "we think this may happen", this is "Given X then there's a 95% of probabily for Y to happen". And let's remember, this reports have been going on since the 90s, and for the last 30 years their forecast of temperature changes HAVE BEEN FUCKING ON POINT.
And not, it's not being alarmist or pesimist to talk about the 3ºC increase and its effects. At this point? it's BEING FUCKING OPTIMIST. Because we are not even on track to limit the warming to the level that would mean several billion humans death by the end of the century. We are not even in track to that.

Last Thursday I had an exclusive interview with Crown Princess Victoria and Prince Daniel. We stood and talked in the great greenhouse in Kew Gardens. Victoria had a laugh that I wore both a fluffy vest and a winter coat. I am a person who is always cold. The Crown Princess is a person who is always warm. [...] Victoria and Daniel joke and laugh a lot. The Prince first ended up behind a large palm leaf that insisted on laying itself over his face. There was a lot of laughter. But when the interview starts, it gets grave and is taken with seriousness. Not least because my questions dealt with major topics such as the war in Ukraine and the climate crisis. It turned out to be an exciting conversation.

possibly one of the most annoying things about extremely online people with opinions about climate change is the number of them who will be like, those feelings of doom are exactly what oil companies are trying to make you feel!!!! so chin up and keep on having hope!!!
and its like. well i don't know really. every morning i wake up to messages from a colleague in the field telling me how people have to move their literal entire houses because the land they built on doesn't exist anymore, or that the land they owned literally doesn't exist anymore. there's yet another report in my inbox about how all the major carbon credit verifiers are double-counting and exaggerating how many credits are being generated. meanwhile the people behind the credits are on a whining defensive about how these reports scrutinising the market are bad because it undermines people's faith in the carbon markets. there's a report about how this country has grown its green cover because the government decided to change the parameters of what counts as a "forest" and that includes...sterile dead tea gardens as well lmao. meanwhile its tabling legislation to allow it to strip the actual forests of its forest-rich places. there's a heatwave, there's a five sigma event in the antartica re. sea ice melting like what. meanwhile cop28 is being fucking run by the director of an oil company of one of the largest petrostates in the world and at cop27, oil lobbysits outnumbered lobbyists from literally any other group including people actually experiencing climate change.
like, are people just not supposed to have natural emotional reactions to seeing the facts laid out before them? like i do not get it. we understood that "there's no hope for women" was an emotional personal is political statement. why the fuck is that so scary when it comes to climate change? why is it so scary to assume that people who are trying to do something about climate change might be experiencing feelings of doom? why can it only be oil propaganda that makes us feel this way? why can it only be externally imposed and not genuinely felt? manage your emotions, for fuck's sake.

Have you heard the latest nonsense from the climate cultists? They're now trying to tell us that the act of breathing in and out is itself an offense against the weather gods.

very genuinely begging all of you to stop sharing posts about palestine and israel with no fact-checking and sometimes not even a link to cited articles
there are actual horrific criminal atrocities happening
it is not necessary to manufacture new ones
please please please do not keep circulating information that is not verified
I understand the emotional reflex when you see something upsetting and want others to know about it, but that is exactly how misinformation is designed to work
please pause, think for a minute, and if you're compelled to share, at least check the source first
signed, your local antizionist Black climate educator 🖤🇵🇸🤎
