LYRICS
\nOnce it’s already happening
\nIt’s a little too late to wait
\nThe voice of experience
\nHas been waiting for this date
\nAnticipate
\nThe future’s sure to come
\nPresenting as the present
\nSoaking in the freedom
\nLet the message be sent<\/p>\n
An ounce of prevention
\nIs worth a pound of cure
\nOur human intervention
\nMakes it all the more sure
\nWho will endure?
\nThe future’s sure to come
\nPresenting as the present
\nSoaking in the freedom
\nLet the message be sent<\/p>\n
The barn doors opening
\nIs swinging oh so wide
\nIt’s midnight reckoning
\nWe’re out of time to bide
\nLook far and wide?
\nThe future’s sure to come
\nPresenting as the present
\nSoaking in the freedom
\nLet the message be sent<\/p>\n

ABOUT THE SONG Unfortunately, even scientists are failing to see (let alone forecast) the rapid acceleration in climate change. Due to their complexity the impacts of the Domino Effect<\/a> are being underestimated. Tipping points<\/a> are Critical Milestones that directly impact the rate of acceleration in climate change<\/a> by multiplying the number and intensity of feedback loops<\/a>. The Domino Effect is also known as “tipping cascades” in climate science. Cascading impacts in relation to tipping points include cascading impacts across biogeophysical and social systems. Until recently, scientist have been drastically underestimating the social-ecological systems. The University of Exeter reports, “There is a notable lack of topic clusters dedicated to how humans will be impacted by climate-related tipping cascades.”<\/p>\n The Age of Loss and Damage is a new way of thinking about economics by combining economics, climate science, statistics, and physics. Until now, economic models have been unfit to capture the full extent of climate damage. Traditionally, “integrated assessment models” (IAMs) were used to forecast “shock” events. IAMs use “quadratic function” to calculate GDP losses by squaring the temperature change, yet ignore other methods (such as the exponential function<\/b>) that are better suited for rapid change. “Climate change is fundamentally different to other shocks because once it has hit, it doesn’t go away,” said Thierry Philipponnat, author of a report by Finance Watch, a Brussels-based public interest NGO on financial issues. “And if the fundamental assumption is flawed, all the rest makes little sense — if any.”<\/p>\n Reuters reported, “Critics say this (IAMs) choice is doomed to underplay the likely impact – particularly if the planet hits environmental tipping points<\/a> in which damage is not only irreversible but happens at an ever-accelerating rate<\/a>.” Thierry Philipponnat’s report, Finance in a Hot House World<\/a>, concludes: “Climate risk is growing to disruptive levels throughout the financial system and the guardians of financial stability urgently need to adapt their tools to regain control.” The report calls for economic models that do not mislead, scenario analyses that prepare the market, and a new prudential tool to address the build-up of systemic climate risk.<\/p>\n Traditional economics is based upon the “costs and benefits” to society. Since there are no known long-term benefits of climate change to society, the Age of Loss and Damage economics focuses on the exponential costs of climate change to society<\/b>.<\/p>\n — from The Age of Loss and Damage<\/a> Brouse (2023)<\/p>\n What Can I Do?<\/strong> LYRICS Once it’s already happening It’s a little too late to wait The voice of experience Has been waiting for this date Anticipate The future’s sure to come Presenting as the present Soaking in the freedom Let the message be sent An ounce of prevention Is worth a pound of cure Our human intervention Makes […]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"nf_dc_page":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[3,5,6,9,14,3878,3810],"tags":[3937,163,326,3939,528,3938],"class_list":["post-31933","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-4d-music","category-chaos-theory","category-chords","category-daniel","category-lyrics","category-rawhide","category-speciman","tag-check-your-temperature","tag-climate-change","tag-freedom","tag-gobsmackingly-bananas","tag-midi","tag-rawhide-ous"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/kingarthur.com\/songwriter\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/31933","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/kingarthur.com\/songwriter\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/kingarthur.com\/songwriter\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kingarthur.com\/songwriter\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kingarthur.com\/songwriter\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=31933"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/kingarthur.com\/songwriter\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/31933\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":31936,"href":"https:\/\/kingarthur.com\/songwriter\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/31933\/revisions\/31936"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/kingarthur.com\/songwriter\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=31933"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kingarthur.com\/songwriter\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=31933"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kingarthur.com\/songwriter\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=31933"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
