BBC Says Only Three Years Left To ‘Save The Planet’
The Earth could be doomed to breach the symbolic 1.5C warming limit in as little as three years at current levels of carbon dioxide emissions said the BBC on June 19th
It states:
That’s the stark warning from more than 60 of the world’s leading climate scientists in the most up-to-date assessment of the state of global warming.
Nearly 200 countries agreed to try to limit global temperature rises to 1.5C above levels of the late 1800s in a landmark agreement in 2015, with the aim of avoiding some of the worst impacts of climate change.
But countries have continued to burn record amounts of coal, oil and gas and chop down carbon-rich forests – leaving that international goal in peril.
“Things are all moving in the wrong direction,” said lead author Prof Piers Forster, director of the Priestley Centre for Climate Futures at the University of Leeds.
“We’re seeing some unprecedented changes and we’re also seeing the heating of the Earth and sea-level rise accelerating as well.”
These changes “have been predicted for some time and we can directly place them back to the very high level of emissions”, he added.
At the beginning of 2020, scientists estimated that humanity could only emit 500 billion more tonnes of carbon dioxide (CO2) – the most important planet-warming gas – for a 50 percent chance of keeping warming to 1.5C.
But by the start of 2025 this so-called “carbon budget” had shrunk to 130 billion tonnes, according to the new study.
That reduction is largely due to continued record emissions of CO2 and other planet-warming greenhouse gases like methane, but also improvements in the scientific estimates.
If global CO2 emissions stay at their current highs of about 40 billion tonnes a year, 130 billion tonnes gives the world roughly three years until that carbon budget is exhausted.

The BBC are still under the illusion that the Paris Agreement in 2015 was ever going to make the slightest bit of difference to anything.
It was obvious at the time that global emissions would carry on rising, because China, India and all of the other developing were not put under any obligations to do so.
And if so-called ‘greenhouse gas’ emissions had been cut to near zero, as these climate ‘scientists’ demand, we would already be back in the dark ages, without electricity.
These so-called ‘scientists’ cannot even get their facts right. According to the BBC, they claim that:
“The rate of global sea-level rise has doubled since the 1990s, raising the risks of flooding for millions of people living in coastal areas worldwide.”
This is an outright lie, as there has been little change in trends since the late 1880s:
North Shields, UK
La Jolla, California
Fort Denison, Australia
Brest, France
There is not the slightest evidence that global temperatures now are any higher than many other periods in recent human history, or that the climate is any worse than in pre-industrial, Little Ice Age times.

Good news…that means the BBC will die off too!

Although, I don’t fully agree with all the views on this video, the “save the plant” part requires this nice response (George Carlin – Saving the Planet):

3 years? Well I’ll take some comfort from the thought the bbc will be gone before then. 🙂

The planet will be here long after the human species ceases to exist.

CO2 is NOT an greenhouse gas . Chem.101 !

The climate catastrophe industry relies very heavily on the short memory of the populace.
The big claim of the 1980s was ‘Ten years to get it right’.
