Global Warming Has Accelerated: Are the United Nations and the Public Informed?

> Are the United Nations and the Public Informed? > Published online: 03 Feb 2025

This is the first time I hear of this, but that doesn't mean decision-makers haven't been informed.

One thing I like is that they title the article "Global warming", rather than the more euphemistic "Climate change".

NASA has it posted on their website too: https://ntrs.nasa.gov/citations/20250001491

As has Columbia University: https://www.columbia.edu/~jeh1/mailings/2025/Hansen_etal2025...

However, the search "United Nations global warming accelerated" does not seem to return results from the UN or the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change.

But the UNFCCC does have as a top article "Indigenous Worldviews Strengthening Climate Resilience", the content of which is a whole ton of ineffective nonsense - https://unfccc.int/news/indigenous-worldviews-strengthening-...

Looking at the their agenda of their upcoming Climate Week September 2025, I wouldn't hold my breath for the UN to make a meaningful difference in fighting global warming - https://unfccc.int/topics/climate-weeks#Climate-Week-Septemb...

The climate report that the Australian government penned is apparently so grim that the experts who have been privy to it have publicly stated that it's far worse than anyone is willing to discuss.

And of course, it's still being blocked from release.

I feel that a lot of governments seem to be accelerating back to full speed with traditional anti-climate practices, and it makes me wonder if those that hold the keys know that the writing is on the wall and have let go of the reigns.

Had to look it up, here's a story about the missing report if anyone's interested: https://greens.org.au/news/media-release/if-minister-bowen-s...

> The climate report that the Australian government penned is apparently so grim that the experts who have been privy to it have publicly stated that it's far worse than anyone is willing to discuss.

Or they are not releasing it because their data is likely not reliable. Almost everything the Australian government produces like this is agenda (neo-feudalism, anti freedom) driven and almost never is in favor of the common person.

I am not a climate change denier, I do believe we are messing up the environment at a rapid pace. I do question the methods and motives of these countries where their solutions are to take away arbitrary freedoms and in exchange do nothing to actually fix the problem.

As long as we pay more taxes we will be all saved right?

exe34•5mo ago
so which is it, data is not reliable or agenda?

Quote: Sources familiar with the modelling, who asked for anonymity to speak about sensitive government information, described some of the scenarios outlined in the report – known as the National Climate Risk Assessment – as “dire”, “diabolical” and “extremely confronting”.

Title (and title of the paper) are ridiculously editorialized.

More accurate description of the contents would be “aerosol reductions in marine shipping lead to increased global temperatures”

jonstewart•5mo ago
The role of shipping fuel getting cleaned up and causing less cloud cover and therefore a decrease in albedo is well-known in the climate-oriented parts of US Government. It’s just that they’re all getting fired or otherwise silenced.
gmuslera•5mo ago
It had never stopped accelerating. This shithole planet have plenty of positive feedback loops, so you warm up, then you have less reflective ice, less albedo and more heat absorption, permafrost thaws and that is more greenhouse gases emissions, increase forest fires so more greenhouse emissions and so on. And the we keep getting surprised at new positive feedback loops.

And, over that, we kept increasing each year how much greenhouse gases we emit. And not only we emit more, but also the main greenhouse gas (CO2) stays in the atmosphere for 100-200 years. So it is practically been accumulating since the industrial revolution, in increasing amounts each year.

What happened is that part of that latent warming was masked by pollution, and cleaning that pollution (that had its own problems) took out that mask.
