[GWSG] The long run; 7 new documentaries; lost decade; climate scientists record feelings; COVID-19 & the crisis

[Tilley, Al]

1. Nature magazine addresses what will happen after we have ceased our fossil fuel binge. One point which emerges in the essay is the great difference that current action will make in earth’s future. https://www.nature.com/scitable/knowledge/library/what-happens-after-global-warming-25887608/



2. Yale Climate Connections profiles seven of the best new documentaries on climate. Several are set in Louisiana. https://www.yaleclimateconnections.org/2020/03/seven-of-the-best-new-documentaries-about-global-warming/?utm_source=Weekly+News+from+Yale+Climate+Connections&utm_campaign=1cc0926384-Weekly_Digest_of_March_02_06_2020&utm_medium=email&utm_term=0_e007cd04ee-1cc0926384-59270721



3. We did not succeed in cutting emissions significantly in the past decade. Now we have more to do and less time to do it. https://phys.org/news/2020-03-decade-left-climate-action-shrunk.html



4. In 2014 Joe Duggan asked climate scientists to write him saying how they felt about the crisis. Now he has asked them to revisit the topic. https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2020/mar/08/im-profoundly-sad-i-feel-guilty-scientists-reveal-personal-fears-about-the-climate-crisis



5. COVID-19 is limiting greenhouse gas emissions as economies falter, but a stimulus package with no environmental controls is looming in China and our ability to manage a transition to renewable energy may be impaired by the virus. https://phys.org/news/2020-03-climate-crisis-back-burner-pandemic-threat.html
