...doch über die von dir genannte Oxidation letztlich als Treibhausgas gar nicht neutralisiert, sondern gemäß meinem (laienhaften) Artikelverständnis sogar noch verschlimmert.
Stimmt dieses Verständnis, dann kumuliert sich das in die Atmosphäre entwichene #Methan durch die Umwandlung in CO₂ + H₂O sogar noch. (Hypothese)

Schlimmer noch: wie die Reaktionsgleichung zeigt, wird sogar das Nicht-THG Sauerstoff in ein potentes Treibhausgas,...

...Methan in CO2 umwandelt, wird das Treibhausgasproblem durch a) den kumulativen Effekt und b) die Transformation in Wasser und Kohlendioxid als noch potentere Treibhausgase noch größer (s/:super!/s)

ad b) Keine Ahnung, ob es das schon gibt, aber müsste man aufgrund der verschiedenen Treibhausgase und des #RadiativeForcing-Efekts 1) nicht Umdenken und 👉von "Treibhausgasäquivalenten" reden? 👈
Die "Hälfte" von der du da redest, wird...

ad a) ok, blöde Frage von mir, natürlich durch Oxidation...aber dadurch habe ich noch versunkenes Wissen heben können:

"While this decreases the concentration of methane in the atmosphere, it is unclear if this leads to a net positive increase in radiative forcing because both water vapor and carbon dioxide are more powerful GHGs factors in terms of affecting the warming of Earth. " - Danke!

Mit anderen Worten, selbst wenn sich das...

#ClimateCatastrophe:
(1/n)

Very welcome.

The #ClimateCatastrophy is the real threat to humanity:

"...2. The ultimate consequence of #GHGs in the atmosphere is that 👉you destroy the basis of life – some experts say for 100,000 years, others 50 million, and some say the Earth will simply become like Venus👈. In other words, for the first time in human history, a group of people, namely a 1% of wealthy elites, are responsible for destroying...

Climate Justice SocialBread and Circuses (@breadandcircuses@climatejustice.social)Attached: 1 image Roger Hallam is one of the founders of Just Stop Oil and Extinction Rebellion, and a leader in the fight against global climate change. I would like you to read this statement he posted yesterday… 🧵1/4 _______________________ I've just been sentenced to 5 years in prison. The longest ever for nonviolent action. The 'crime'? Giving a talk on civil disobedience as an effective, evidence-based method for stopping the elite from putting enough carbon in the atmosphere to send us to extinction. I have given hundreds of similar speeches encouraging nonviolent action and have never been arrested for it. This time I was an advisor to the M25 motorway disruption, recommending the action to go ahead to wake up the British public to societal collapse. I was not part of the planning or action itself. In the trial, I swore before God to tell the truth. The truth is the science. The science is clear. We're heading for billions of deaths and ecological collapse. To prove this, I presented the jury with a 250-page dossier of leading scientists' research as evidence in my defence. This was denied by the judge as an invalid - climate science is now illegal in the British courtroom. I then began to speak about the apocalyptic conditions humanity faces - floods, wildfires, mass heat deaths - and was silenced by the judge. He sent out the jury and threatened to arrest me if I didn't stop. Instead, I stayed in the dock and argued that until I was given the right to complete my defence – I would not move. Even the prosecution tried to argue in my defence and the judge let me continue. When the jury had shuffled in again, I spoke about the legal concept of “equality of arms” – that as the prosecution had had a right to lay facts over a whole week, I also wanted an equal opportunity. I spoke of various cases where juries had acquitted defendants when they had heard the facts, such as the Extinction Rebellion cracking of Shell's windows in 2018 as a reasonable action against criminal destruction. The Dutch Supreme Court has even said that all governments have a legal obligation to prevent the emission of greenhouse gases. Whilst the prosecution accepted that emissions pose an existential threat, for the first time in British history no less, they still tried to convict us for public nuisance rather than praise us for trying to stop those emissions. Given the objectivity of existential threat, there were overwhelming grounds to be involved in a plan to cause some disruption to the M25. In the British law on public nuisance, there is a ‘reasonable excuse’ clause. Science says there is an overwhelming threat to my life, my children, you and your children. To argue there is not a reasonable excuse directly defies the wish of this legislation. Things are happening that cause harm – people are engaged in physical acts to stop that harm – it doesn’t matter whether it’s a protest or not. As I began to offer up some case law, the judge kept intervening telling me I was “wasting my time” and ordering the jury to disregard me. To illustrate that I was not talking about my motivations but speaking about real necessity, I referred to a famous case over a decision to operate on conjoined twins with the likelihood that one would die. In this dilemma, I quoted the 19th Century principle that the action was necessary if the threat faced was inevitable and irrevocable, that no more should be done than essential, and that it must be proportionate. I argued that there was a “duress of circumstances” including the objective danger I’ve experienced as a farmer unable to grow food, and the global significance of “food insecurity” – a euphemism for famine and starvation. There has never been a moment in history where ‘necessity’ has been more supported by objective facts – more than 10,000 scientific and peer-reviewed papers, indicating an outcome of mass starvation and death from man-made climate collapse. In response, Judge Hehir called for an early lunch and dismissed the jury. He turned to me and warned that I wasn't a lawyer and that “this is not the Roger Hallam show”. He then gave me just 15 more minutes to put forward my “beliefs” - a totally fucking incoherent statement. This isn’t belief - it’s the objective threat of destruction of property and livelihoods of billions of people and the secondary effects of famine i.e. war, rape, and torture. _______________________ That's Part 1 of 4.
