ABOUT THE SONG
Many people ask, “Why does a scientist engage with climate deniers?”

As an educator, I see these interactions as an opportunity to reach a wider audience. Engaging with climate skeptics — what some might call ‘climate dummies’ — gives me the chance to correct misinformation in real time and provide fact-based explanations to others who may be quietly observing the conversation.

By addressing these false claims head-on, I can offer a legitimate, scientifically backed source of information to those seeking clarity in a sea of misinformation. This outreach is critical, especially when so many people are exposed to conflicting or inaccurate claims about climate change. My aim is not to argue for the sake of it, but to ensure that there are trusted voices out there providing clear, evidence-based information on the urgent reality of climate change.

In addition, their opposition is immensely educative in our efforts. In reality, their persistent denial of climate change has forced us to rethink and drastically rebuild our climate models. What were once “worst-case” scenarios have now become the “best-case” outcomes we are seeing today.

Our updated climate model, now integrating complex social-ecological factors, shows that global temperatures could rise by up to 9°C within this century — far beyond previous predictions of a 4°C rise over the next thousand years. This kind of warming could bring us dangerously close to the “wet-bulb” threshold, where heat and humidity exceed the human body’s ability to cool itself, leading to fatal consequences.

Tipping points and feedback loops drive the acceleration of climate change. When one tipping point is toppled and triggers others, the cascading collapse is known as the Domino Effect.

ABOUT THE SONG
The song is a metaphor for social responsibility.

“Swab the poop deck” means to mop the highest, rearmost deck of a ship. This instruction was given to keep the wooden deck damp to prevent it from drying out, rotting, and becoming a fire hazard, especially around gunpowder. It also served to clean away salt and seaweed from the deck and keep the crew occupied on long voyages.

Why was the poop deck swabbed?
Preventing fire: In an era of cannons and gunpowder, a damp deck could reduce the risk of fire.
Preserving the wood: Keeping the wooden planks moist helped them to swell, which sealed the seams and prevented water from seeping into the lower decks. It also helped to prevent the wood from drying out and becoming brittle.
Fighting fungus: Saltwater helps to prevent fungus and mold from growing on the wooden planks.
Cleaning: Regular swabbing cleaned away dried salt, dirt, and seaweed that collected on the deck.
Discipline and boredom: On long voyages, swabbing the deck was a task that kept sailors busy and prevented idleness and boredom.
