Tastes Like Chicken

Posted on July 8, 2024 by admin

[Intro]
Now that Man has cooked man,
Can you tell me then…
Does it taste like chicken?

[Verse 1]
What’s the scoop
On chicken soup?
Does the plan
Include man?

[Bridge]
Watching civilization bake
While humans are at ‘steak’

[Chorus]
Now that Man has cooked man,
Can you tell me then…
Does it taste like chicken?
(Once again)
Does it taste like chicken?

[Verse 2]
Are they serving
The ‘less deserving’?
What is the quality
Of your humanity?

[Bridge]
Watching civilization bake
While humans are at ‘steak’

[Chorus]
Now that Man has cooked man,
Can you tell me then…
Does it taste like chicken?
(Once again)
Does it taste like chicken?

[Bridge]
Pavement
125 degrees (Fahrenheit)
Movement
Man flees (Just ain’t right)
Having some sole food
And, being rude

[Chorus]
Now that Man has cooked man,
Can you tell me then…
Does it taste like chicken?
(Once again)
Does it taste like chicken?

[Outro]
Watching civilization bake
While humans are at ‘steak’

A SCIENCE NOTE

Climate breakdown, the most alarming development, occurs when feedback loops are triggered, and tipping points are crossed. This leads to the extinction of plants, the disappearance of carbon sinks, and an exponential acceleration of Earth’s temperature. The consequences are dire, with the potential disappearance of vital resources like food, fresh water, and breathable air, likely followed by catastrophic impacts on human survival.

In October 2023, the European Space Agency’s Copernicus Climate Change Service reported that the average temperature for September hit 16.38 degrees Celsius, surpassing the previous record set in September 2020 by 0.5 degrees Celsius. Copernicus Director Carlo Buontempo described it as “mind-blowing” and emphasized the devastating impacts on people and ecosystems, citing destruction of assets, infrastructure, and harvests. “What we are observing, are not only new extremes but the persistence of these record-breaking conditions, and the impacts these have on both people and planet, are a clear consequence of the warming of the climate system,” Director Buontempo said.

By January 2024, the Earth had experienced an alarming annual average temperature increase of over 1.5 degrees Celsius. This temperature rise continued in February 2024, with a monthly average reaching 1.77 degrees above pre-industrial levels, occurring centuries earlier than previously predicted. The urgency to address and combat climate change has never been more critical.

In a significant update from May 2024, scientists determined through tree ring analysis that the average temperature increase in 2023 reached 2.07 degrees Celsius, further underscoring the escalating pace of climate change and its profound impact on global ecosystems.

June 6, 2024 — Carbon dioxide is accumulating in the atmosphere faster than ever — accelerating on a steep rise to levels far above any experienced during human existence, scientists from NOAA and the Scripps Institution of Oceanography at the University of California San Diego announced today. “Over the past year, we’ve experienced the hottest year on record, the hottest ocean temperatures on record and a seemingly endless string of heat waves, droughts, floods, wildfires and storms,” said NOAA Administrator Rick Spinrad, Ph.D. “Now we are finding that atmospheric CO2 levels are increasing faster than ever. We must recognize that these are clear signals of the damage carbon dioxide pollution is doing to the climate system, and take rapid action to cut fossil fuel use as quickly as we can.”

Come on, do your part!

A SCIENCE NOTE
Humans will experience greater loss and damage to life and quality of life from air pollution, decreasing supply of potable water, extreme weather events, disease, and other adverse health outcomes. The greatest short term climate change risk to human health is deadly humid heat (wet-bulb temperature).

The greatest health risk from climate change to those alive today is the increased moisture content in the air (relative humidity) combined with the increased temperatures. Climate change and rising temperatures significantly increase the humidity in the atmosphere due to the relationship between temperature and the air’s capacity to hold moisture. The Clausius-Clapeyron equation describes this relationship, indicating that for every 1C (1.8F) increase in temperature, the air can hold about 7% more water vapor.

When the “wet bulb” temperature reaches a temperature too hot for humans to sweat, it is referred to as the “wet-bulb temperature threshold” or simply the “wet-bulb limit.” This limit represents the maximum temperature at which evaporation from a wet surface, such as the skin, can effectively cool the human body through sweating. Beyond this threshold, the body’s ability to regulate its internal temperature becomes severely compromised, posing a significant risk to human health and well-being.

When the temperature exceeds the wet-bulb temperature threshold, the human body faces significant risks of heat-related illnesses and potentially fatal heatstroke. Under such conditions, the body’s ability to cool itself through perspiration is severely compromised, leading to a rapid rise in core body temperature. As a result, individuals may experience symptoms such as dizziness, fatigue, rapid heartbeat, nausea, and confusion. Without intervention, heat exhaustion can progress to heatstroke, a life-threatening condition characterized by a core body temperature above 40°C (104℉), accompanied by neurological symptoms such as seizures, delirium, and loss of consciousness. Heatstroke requires immediate medical attention and can be fatal if left untreated.

Exposure to temperatures exceeding the wet-bulb threshold poses a grave risk to human health and highlights the urgent need for effective measures to mitigate and adapt to the impacts of climate change, which can exacerbate extreme heat events and increase the frequency of conditions exceeding this critical threshold.
* Our climate model uses chaos theory in an attempt to adequately account for humans and forecasts a global average temperature increase of 9 degrees Celsius above pre-industrial levels. Everybody has the responsibility not to pollute. There are plenty of things you can do to help save the planet. Stop using fossil fuels. Consume less. Love more.

A SCIENCE NOTE
The phrase “beat the drum” can be a fitting description for a climate activist because it conveys the idea of someone who is actively and persistently raising awareness about climate change.

Persistent Advocacy: Just as beating a drum creates a continuous and noticeable sound, a climate activist consistently speaks out, educates, and rallies others about the importance of addressing climate change. Their persistent efforts ensure that the message stays in public consciousness.
Mobilizing Action: Beating a drum often signals the start of action or movement, much like a climate activist who works to mobilize people, communities, and policymakers to take action against climate change.
Drawing Attention: Drums are loud and attention-grabbing, similar to how climate activists aim to draw attention to environmental issues. They often use dramatic or high-profile actions to highlight the urgency of climate change and the need for immediate action.
Community and Solidarity: Drumming can be a communal activity that brings people together. Similarly, climate activists work to build a sense of community and solidarity among those concerned about the environment, fostering a collective effort to tackle climate change.

In summary, “beat the drum” effectively encapsulates the relentless, attention-grabbing, and action-oriented nature of climate activism.

A SCIENCE NOTE

Human-induced climate change is a dynamic component of an intricate and unordered system, as per chaos theory. This implies that global warming is accelerating exponentially in a complex manner. Over the period from 1992 to 2023, we have presented compelling evidence, proposed remedies to mitigate climate change, and amassed valuable information through the engagement of millions with this climate model. Your participation has been invaluable. The incontrovertible data underscores that human-induced climate change is rapidly deteriorating our habitat.

This climate model/experiment employs chaos theory to comprehensively consider human impacts, projecting a potential global average temperature increase of 9°C above pre-industrial levels. Global warming results from elevated thermal energy within the climate system, which includes various interconnected subsystems. Chaos theory highlights the intricate and nonlinear nature of these dynamic systems. Previous climate models inadequately incorporated “social-ecological systems,” as human involvement was not a significant factor in past climate changes.

Regrettably, the United States ranks among the least prepared countries globally, with the highest percentage of climate deniers. Politicians exacerbate the problem by hindering efforts against climate change. The Republican Party dismisses it as a manufactured crisis and plans to increase fossil fuel production. Political extremists asserting that the climate crisis is manufactured employ an ironic term, considering that human manufacturing activities are the primary driver of climate change.

Under President Biden, the United States continues to be the world’s largest producer of oil, including crude oil, natural gas liquids, and other petroleum products. Both political parties have concurred to allocate unlimited emergency funding for climate disasters instead of proactively preventing them. In 2023, the U.S. witnessed a record number of climate disasters exceeding one billion dollars each, totaling 28 separate weather and climate-related events.

In June 2024, the Supreme Court significantly expanded its authority and severely curtailed the Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA) ability to enforce environmental protection laws. This ruling represents a dramatic shift in the balance of power, undermining decades of regulatory progress aimed at mitigating environmental damage and climate change. The court’s decision essentially nullifies the EPA’s mandate to regulate emissions and enforce compliance with existing environmental standards.

This judicial overreach is viewed by many as an act of arrogance and ignorance, resulting in a scenario where “worst-case” predictions for climate change have become the “best-case” expectations. The ramifications of this decision are dire, prompting a revision of climate models to reflect a much grimmer outlook. The new projections indicate a potential maximum global temperature increase of 9°C within this century, a stark rise from the previously estimated 4°C over the next millennium.

Such an unprecedented increase in global temperatures would push Earth toward a wet-bulb temperature threshold that is incompatible with human life. Wet-bulb temperature, which combines heat and humidity, represents a critical limit beyond which the human body can no longer effectively cool itself through perspiration, leading to potentially fatal heat stress.

DEBT: While high national debt can be sustainable under certain conditions, it is essential for governments to monitor and manage their fiscal health to avoid potential risks such as reduced investment, higher interest rates, and economic instability.

ENVIRONMENT: While fossil fuels have historically been crucial for global energy needs, their long-term sustainability is highly questionable due to resource depletion and environmental damage. Shifting towards renewable energy is vital for a sustainable future .

AN IMPORTANT NOTE

What Can I Do? There are numerous actions you can take to contribute to saving the planet. Each person bears the responsibility to minimize pollution, discontinue the use of fossil fuels, reduce consumption, and foster a culture of love and care. The Butterfly Effect illustrates that a small change in one area can lead to significant alterations in conditions anywhere on the globe. Hence, the frequently heard statement that a fluttering butterfly in China can cause a hurricane in the Atlantic. Be a butterfly and positively impact the world.

Many conservative politicians in rural areas deny the existence or severity of climate change, dismissing it as a hoax or exaggerated. This denial stems from skepticism about scientific consensus and the influence of fossil fuel industries. The combination of climate change denial, legislative actions that favor fossil fuels, cultural and economic priorities, and public opinion in conservative, rural areas of the USA has significantly hindered progress in the fight against climate change. Addressing these challenges requires a multifaceted approach, including education, economic transition plans for affected communities, and bipartisan cooperation to develop sustainable solutions.

A SCIENCE NOTE

Our climate model / experiment employs chaos theory to comprehensively consider human impacts and projects a potential global average temperature increase of 9℃ above pre-industrial levels. Global warming is a consequence of elevated thermal energy in the climate system, which comprises various subsystems. Chaos theory underscores the intricate and nonlinear nature of dynamic systems. Previous climate models have inadequately incorporated “social-ecological systems” as human involvement was not a significant factor in past climate changes. Regrettably, the United States ranks among the least prepared countries globally, with the highest percentage of climate deniers. Politicians hinder the fight against climate change exacerbating the problem. The Republican party dismisses it as a manufactured crisis and plans to increase fossil fuel production. Political extremists asserting that the climate crisis is manufactured employ an ironic term, considering that human manufacturing activities are the primary driver of climate change. Under President Biden, the United States has continued to be the world’s largest producer of oil, including crude oil, natural gas liquids, and other petroleum products. Both political parties have concurred to allocate unlimited emergency funding for climate disasters instead of proactively preventing them. Last year, the US witnessed a record number of over a billion-dollar climate disasters, totaling 28 separate weather and climate-related events. It is due to this arrogance and ignorance that “worst-case scenarios” are now “best-case scenarios” for the acceleration of climate change. These factors have altered our climate model, shifting the projected maximum temperature rise from 4 degrees Celsius over the next millennium to a probable increase of 9 degrees Celsius this century. A 9-degree Celsius increase would bring the Earth close to a wet-bulb temperature incapable of sustaining human life.

[Intro]
Damn!
Storm damage
Savage
Ravage

[Verse 1]
I could see the tree
Coming at me
Debris
Shh, shh, shockingly

Luckily, missing me

A SCIENCE NOTE

Climate change and extreme weather events are significantly impacting homeowner’s insurance in several ways:

Increased Premiums:
- Insurers are raising premiums to offset the higher costs associated with more frequent and severe weather events. For example, hurricanes, wildfires, floods, and other natural disasters are causing substantial damage, leading to increased claims and higher payouts by insurance companies.
Reduced Availability and Coverage:
- In high-risk areas prone to natural disasters, some insurers are limiting the availability of policies or excluding specific types of coverage, such as flood or wind damage. This makes it more difficult for homeowners to obtain comprehensive insurance coverage.
Stricter Underwriting:
- Insurers are implementing stricter underwriting criteria to assess the risk of insuring properties. This includes detailed evaluations of a home’s location, construction, and susceptibility to extreme weather events. Homes that do not meet the new criteria may be denied coverage or face higher premiums.
Increased Deductibles:
- To manage their risk exposure, insurers are increasing deductibles for claims related to natural disasters. This means homeowners will have to pay more out-of-pocket before their insurance coverage kicks in.
Emphasis on Mitigation:
- Insurance companies are encouraging or even requiring homeowners to take preventive measures to reduce the risk of damage from extreme weather events. This can include fortifying homes against storms, installing fire-resistant materials, or creating defensible space around properties in wildfire-prone areas.
Reinsurance Costs:
- The cost of reinsurance (insurance for insurance companies) is also rising due to the increased frequency and severity of claims. These higher costs are often passed down to homeowners through increased premiums.

Climate change and extreme weather events are driving up the costs and complexities of homeowner’s insurance, making it more expensive and sometimes more difficult to obtain comprehensive coverage. Insurers are responding by adjusting premiums, underwriting practices, and encouraging risk mitigation measures.
