Even thousands of kilometers away, the smoke of the burning Amazon and Pantanal is covering the sky of my city.

The perils of #monoculture. In the late 18th century, officials in #Prussia and #Saxony began to rearrange their complex, diverse #forests into straight rows of single-species #trees, leading to #ecologicaldisaster. The same thing has happened to the #internet. noemamag.com/we-need-to-rewild

This will only get worse as the climate in the PNW continues to get drier and warmer. Which begs the question, where is the United States going to produce its non-fossil fuel power?

"The wildfires we saw last year, for example, were wildly out of proportion from anything we’ve seen before. Records aren’t getting broken by small degrees now. They’re getting broken by leaps and bounds."

"Snow [i.e., the rapid loss of snowpack due to rising temperatures] is a reminder that, actually, a lot of the changes we’re dealing with aren’t that incremental. We may not be able to see rising temperatures in quite the same way. But in many cases, those changes are just as sudden and dramatic and are happening faster than people thought they were."

You know if the wildfires were not depressing enough now come the carcinogens. This is absolutely why you should be masked up and not outside. I swear the number of people I see exercising in this shit at times is wild. #WildFireSeason #WestCoast #EcologicalDisaster #TerminalStageCapitalism

"Earth’s 'vital signs' are worse than at any time in human history, an international team of scientists has warned, meaning life on the planet is in peril.

Their report found that 20 of the 35 planetary vital signs they use to track the climate crisis are at record extremes."

It is exactly this kind of short-sighted jackassery that will doom our species. Yes, let's dry out the aquifers for short-term growth and economic gain. I get Central Oregon has been devestated by the pulling out of the logging industry in areas, but the idea you are going to attract another industry that will do the same thing eventually is wild. Sure, make the region uninhabitable for a few bucks. This is your brain on capitalism. #ORPol #PNW #EcologicalDisaster #TerminalStageCapitalism #LetTheWorldBurn

"Austria, Belgium, France, Germany, Poland and Switzerland have all experienced their hottest Septembers on record, with unseasonably high temperatures set to continue into October, in a year likely to be the warmest in human history."

"As the world sweltered through the hottest three month spell in human history this summer, extreme weather disasters took more than 18,000 lives, drove at least 150,000 people from their homes, affected hundreds of millions of others and caused billions of dollars of damage.

This is a conservative tally…."

We need to stop calling it late stage capitalism and call it what it really is. Terminal stage capitalism. This is it for us as a species with this method of organization. There is no escape from the ecological disaster it has created and has no intention to fix. #Capitalism #NothingToLoseButYourChains #UnderNoPretext #EcologicalDisaster #TerminalStageCapitalism

"The lived experience of the summer of 2023 suggested that the big changes long forecast are going to be bigger and come faster than we had expected. …

We are not only unprepared for what comes next, we remain deeply unsure of what exactly does come next besides ever-rising temperatures."
