Temps between 21-24ºC are ideal for crops, but for each degree above, yields drop 6%. At 32ºC - No more bread, pasta, or bagels. At a 2C global temp rise - many plants won't survive. 2C globally can mean an increase of 7C over land. No crops, no food.

By 2030, AI's energy consumption could match the entire current usage of the US!💡 Although the industry has just been turned upside down. Deepseek might just disrupt this energy usage trajectory, steering towards a much lower curve in carbon output.

"Electricity from renewables like wind & solar is on the rise, but it’s just a fraction of our total energy use. We're still far from curbing our CO2 emissions. Let's not be complacent in our energy transition." - Insightful from Richard Heinberg.
"Despite the rise of renewable energy from wind and solar, electricity is just 20% of our energy use, and CO2 emissions are still climbing. We must accelerate our energy transition efforts." - Richard Heinberg at MEERTALK.

Over 1 million homes & businesses in Ireland were left without power, with hundreds of thousands more without water after the latest climate bomb struck. Continuing to dump billions of tonnes of CO2 into the atmosphere yearly, treating it like an open sewer, it won't be the last.

114 mph winds recorded in Galway. The highest ever recorded in Ireland. The energy in the system is increasing. Those facts cannot be denied.

@KevsTribulation Agree - even the responses you're getting. Cognitive dissonance plays a big role.
