Die von Waldbränden außerhalb der Tropen verursachten Emissionen haben sich seit 2001 fast verdreifacht. Weltweit haben die Emissionen durch Waldbrände in dieser Zeit um 60% zugenommen. Ursache dafür ist die Kombination von heißerem und trockenerem Wetter mit dem schnelleren Wachstum der Wälder durch die höheren Temperaturen. Die Wälder können durch die Brände jahrzehntelang zu Emittenten werden. Damit ist die Funktion der Wälder als Kohlenstoffsenken gefährdet. Das bedeutet auch, dass sie andere anthropogene Emissionen weniger kompensieren und die Fähigkeit verlieren, nach einem Überschreiten der 1,5°-Grenze C0₂ aus der Atmosphäre zu entfernen. Außerdem müssten diese von Menschen verursachten Emissonen den C0₂-Budgets der Nationalstaaten zugeordnet werden.

Erstmals wurde genau erfasst, welcher Teil der von Waldbränden betroffenen Gebiete sich auf die menschlich verursachte Erhitzung zurückführen lässt. Er wächst seit 20 Jahren deutlich an. Insgesamt kompensieren die auf die Erhitzung zurückgehenden Waldbrände den Rückgang an Bränden durch Entwaldung. Der von Menschen verursachte – und für die Berechnung von Schadensansprüchen relevante – Anteil der CO2-Emissione ist damit deutlich höher als bisher angenommen https://www.carbonbrief.org/climate-change-almost-wipes-out-decline-in-global-area-burned-by-wildfires/

Die CO2-Emissionen durch Waldbrände haben seit 2001 um 60% zugenommen, wie sich aus einer neuen Studie ergibt. Den größten Anteil daran haben die borealen Wälder Kanadas und Sibiriens. Sie gehören zu einem Typ von Wäldern, der besonders schlecht an die globale Erhitzung angepasst ist. Die beobachteten Emissionen durch Waldbrände machen unwahscheinlicher, dass Wälder in Zukunft von Menschen emittiertes CO2 reduzieren können. https://www.nytimes.com/2024/10/17/climate/carbon-fires-forests-global-warming.html

Erneuerbare Energien sind in den vergangenen 20 Jahren deutlich schneller gewachsen als prognostiziert. Das Wachstum war aber nicht so groß wie das des Stromverbrauchs insgesamt, so dass die Emissionen aus fossilen Energien trotzdem zugenommen haben. Die New York Times stellt die Entwicklung des Elektrizitäts-Sektors nach Länder geordnet mit Infografiken dar und analysiert sie. https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2023/11/20/climate/global-power-electricity-fossil-fuels-coal.html

In den G20 Ländern haben die Emissionen durch Kohleverbrennung seit 2015 um 9% zugenommen. Australien verursacht - einer Analyse des Think Tanks Ember zufolge - noch immer von allen G20 Länder die höchsten Pro-Kopf-Emissionen durch Kohleverbrennung. Sie liegen bei über 4 Tonnen CO₂ im Jahr, das ist etwa eine Tonne mehr als in China. Auch in Südkorea sind die Pro-Kopf-Emissionen durch Kohle höher als in China. https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2023/sep/05/australia-has-highest-per-capita-co2-emissions-from-coal-in-g20-analysis-finds

This sounds similar to a process used by Austin Kleon which I've noted before.

A miserable sniveling little piece from someone who seems to be missing a larger rhetorical point. They barely peck at any actual argument, but resort to tangential ad hominem attacks in an attempt, yet again (should we be surprised?), to quite the voice of a Black woman who's simply trying to tell a story, and far succeeding the writer at it.

As an aside there's a lot to also be said about the presentation of this on the page as I'm viewing it. It's topped by a middle-aged white man with a paunch, ostensibly attempting to appear intelligent in front of a book shelf covered with world history texts which are ostensibly about "White" Occidental history. Further down the page all the ads scream at me with White Nationalism including t-shirts oozing with the American flag and white Christian symbolism. The amount of cruft and crap on the page seems to indicate that the NR is gasping for breath to put their ideas onto a page that's overcrowded with ads.

Some good examples of senior and well-known people who have failed to get tenure, largely because of race.

Examples of how the system is set up to exclude diversity in terms of how the game is played.

Once again, the recitation imbues the words with feeling. On the page, they are flat actions, just what happens next. Spoken, they are intense, they are what is happening now. When I read this story, it is something that has happened. When I hear it, it is happening.

This written translation of the text is not the same translation used in the video. The language in the video's translation is more appealing to me, so I am not sure if the fact I have a better understanding of what happens from listening to the story than from reading it is because I just understand the spoken word better or because the words being spoken are just more understandable.

As mocking goes, this reads a little flowery. It seems tame in print, but it holds a sting when I hear it spoken. The tone, the delivery is everything. This is an interesting moment when I hear it. When I read it, I barely notice it.

There is so much going on in this sentence. I am so used to reading everything in my head, which means I am used to reading relatively quickly. So when I come to a sentence like this, I rush through it. And when I get to the end of it, I have no idea what I just read. I have to make myself slow down, read each portion separately, pause at the commas, breathe between thoughts. I work harder to understand these sentences when I read them because I have to adjust my internal rhythm to the rhythm of the words. When I listen to the words, it's like listening to music. I respond to the rhythm of their sounds intuitively; I don't have to decipher the rhythm. I understand better and faster when I hear the words than when I read them.

I have such a difficult time understanding the names of some of these characters when I hear them spoken. So it's a challenge to keep everyone straight. When several new names are introduced, I have to rewind the video a few times to untangle the identities of. It is a relief, when reading, to understand who each character is without having to make sense of unfamiliar sounds.
