The Crisis Report — 12

We are in a moment of history where things could go CATASTROPHICALLY BAD.

You expected something horrible didn’t you?

The last few weeks have been my brain on overload trying to assimilate everything that’s going on in the world and see the “shape” of events. Things are happening now at a pace that would have seemed unbelievable a few years ago.

I am reminded of Tuchman and her “March of Folly”. I fear we have missed our chance to act cooperatively as a global community and deal with the Climate Crisis collectively. It increasingly seems likely that there will be WAR.

IT’S ABOUT GLOBAL WARMING.

Imagine this is the world.

I’m using this image because it makes it easy to visualize my conception of what’s happening. In this image the “ocean” around the island is the Earth’s Oceans. The world’s temperature is set by this ocean. If it cools, the world cools. If it warms, the world warms.

This is a reasonable way to understand the real Earth’s Climate System.

80% of the solar energy the earth captures happens along the equator.

90% of that energy goes into the world’s oceans.
