I would like to know how this "Abrupt Climate Change" book has been viewed by the IPCC and whether there's any discussion of this book in the latest synthesis report from the IPCC.

Not just the IPCC.

Viewed by the IPCC grifters ? There was discussion, no doubt.

"Wind industry predicts bounce-back and rapid growth in 2023"

quote
This year, the industry will reach a historic milestone — 1 terawatt, or 1,000 gigawatts, of wind energy installed worldwide, the council said. The 2-terawatt milestone should come in 2030 if policymakers strengthen supply chains to meet demand and address permitting and other bottlenecks, the council added.

"Five 'mega-sized' U.S. solar projects to break ground in 2023"

quote
According to the Solar Energy Industries Association (SEIA), the United States solar industry continues to set records. SEIA predicted that the country’s total installed solar capacity would more than quadruple by 2030, with annual installations reaching 45 GW. This growth has been driven by declining costs of solar technology, favorable government policies, and increasing demand for renewable energy sources.

"Driven by green goods, global trade hits record $32 trillion"

quote
Global trade was worth a record $32 trillion in 2022, but amid deteriorating economic conditions and rising uncertainties, growth turned negative in the second half of the year and is set to stagnate in the first half of 2023.

The silver lining was the strong performance of trade in “green goods”, whose growth held strong throughout the year, says UNCTAD’s latest Global Trade Update, published on Thursday.

Green goods, also called “environmentally friendly goods”, refer to products that are designed to use fewer resources or emit less pollution than their traditional counterparts.

Electrification of road vehicles is just part of Climate Mitigation. It gets more media coverage than almost any other aspect of Climate Mitigation. But where are "you" on the movement towards zero carbon emissions concrete for building and road construction? Where are "you" on climate-proofing agricultural methods, so that farmers do not cause large greenhouse gas emissions that are easily avoidable if crop fertilizers are used in more carefully thought out ways? Where are "you" on a myriad of other aspects of the multifaceted diamond of modern Climate Mitigation or "Cli-Mit"..?

"Climate Mitigation—it's more than electric road vehicles"



The science of the planet-warming Greenhouse effect ?
Science ? Why are climate scientists dumber than rocks ?

Climate mitigation ? Why do you tell us it needs to be difficult, painful, costly, weaken America, even necessary. What a farce !

Of course, your vaunted valued scientists have never thought of removing the so offensive carbon, from fossil fuels, before they are consumed.

What's the phrase ? It's "keep it simple stupid".

Please, tell us about the CO2 removal science.

The so-called "scientists" aren't stupid at all, they found a way to keep cashing in on an outright LIE.

The "green" in the "green movement" is MONEY, and lots of it, and all they have to do is LIE, LIE, and LIE again. It's a cash cow paid for by the ignorant.

As for the CO2 they want to remove, that's BS too, what they really mean is to remove all the carbon-based lifeforms - in other words, everything especially humans, except the "elite" of course, they think they're Gods of some kind, what do you think all the trans stuff is about too, the "elites" can control the climate, the "elites" will control what we see and hear, the "elites", not God, will determine what "gender" is even in children.

God has no control over them, they are mightier than God in their minds.

Everything they do is for CONTROL. Get it.

Forum member "Valkrie9" posted a link to a YouTube "short" featuring Bill Maher:
https://www.youtube.com/shorts/bPjc1ZhqVAA

One of the "bullet items" that Bill Maher highlighted was plastic waste recycling, which has largely been a failure, and for the plastic waste that is routinely discarded from homes and apartments into garbage bins or even recycling bins—mostly a failure. For the most part, discarding a plastic bottle by putting it into a recycling bin is like the "virtue signaling" that goes on on social media networks: an empty gesture. The plastic waste does not get disposed of or recycled in an environmentally friendly way.

Could there be fresh hope in some of the more recent research that's been published?

quote
Researchers have developed a system that can transform plastic waste and greenhouse gases into sustainable fuels and other valuable products -- using just the energy from the Sun.


University of Cambridge. "Solar-powered system converts plastic and greenhouse gases into sustainable fuels." ScienceDaily. ScienceDaily, 9 January 2023. https://www.sciencedaily.co.../01/230109112706.htm

That was just published at the beginning of this year. A solar-powered process to convert planet-warming carbon dioxide gas and planet-polluting plastic waster into usable materials and fuels.

It's clearly not yet ready for "prime time". It needs more development—no small amount of work. So, it's just a first step. Possibly. Here's some text from the fairly brief report in ScienceDaily:


quote
"Generally, CO2 conversion requires a lot of energy, but with our system, basically you just shine a light at it, and it starts converting harmful products into something useful and sustainable," said Rahaman. "Prior to this system, we didn't have anything that could make high-value products selectively and efficiently."

"What's so special about this system is the versatility and tuneability—we're making fairly simple carbon-based molecules right now, but in future, we could be able to tune the system to make far more complex products, just by changing the catalyst," said Bhattacharjee.

Reisner recently received new funding from the European Research Council to help the development of their solar-powered reactor. Over the next five years, they hope to further develop the reactor to produce more complex molecules. The researchers say that similar techniques could someday be used to develop an entirely solar-powered recycling plant.

"Developing a circular economy, where we make useful things from waste instead of throwing it into landfill, is vital if we're going to meaningfully address the climate crisis and protect the natural world," said Reisner. "And powering these solutions using the Sun means that we're doing it cleanly and sustainably."

There you go again, . Acting like Global Warming is real. Not everyone is stupid. Your CULT always speaks of carbon dioxide gas being a pollutant is accepted by all. Knowing by always doing so, other sheeple will believe the same bullzhit you do. Believing an invisible natural element, a finite element, is a pollutant. How dare you believe your gas lighting (planet-warming, planet-polluting) makes a friggin fruck ?
