I would pay myself but our research group presently is on a shoe string budget and I'm already taking money out of my own pocket to pay for maillings and presentations that we're doing
tyler thank you for the 20% off offer but I cannot swing it. I would however like to send you a copy of our book arcticbluedeserts.com and $50 . I just need an address. to mail to.
Thank you very much for upgrading! Your support means a lot to me. I would tend to agree with you, on a highly dynamic planet with an abruptly changing climate, it does not make sense to train AIs with historic data, especially if that data extends a number of decades into the past. I would say we are entering or will soon enter uncharted climate territory for many locations on Earth in both the mean and the variance around the mean, but in particular, the extreme heat seems most consequential to human well-being, ecosystems, and other creatures.
I agree with you as well about our Achilles heel being our agriculture. We can bioengineer thermophilic, xerophytic and halophytic crops but the first two depend on a soil biome we might not be able to preserve at scale. At some point even our cleverness may come up against a wall. At best we face enormous, involuntary population reduction. Better we be realists and start making the hard choices now.
It is possibIe to sIow down the Arctic meIt. However it will take pressure on Canadas' Hydro Industry...The same pressure that the fossil fuel industry has been experiencing Iatey. These huge hydroelectric operation must let these major rivers flow naturally again and stop imprisoning water all summerlong then forcing these waters after they sit on permafrost heating melting it, to be discharged back thru turbines, the size of houses, all winter long. Because of the large temperature differential its causing an inexaustible supply of steamy water vapor heating all the regions around the rivers, in the dead of winter. One ton of condensing water vapor into the atmosphere I believe = 2 milllion BTUs
Precisely, and water vapor, more than carbon or atmospheric methane is our immediate problem right now. Warm tropical atmospheric rivers, more than warming air are transporting gigatons of warm water and dropping them on Antarctica, destabilizing the ice shelf's. The whole Earth is changing.
