The Southwest and West are in a 25-yr megadrought that's projected to persist/worsen. Seven SW states draw from the Colorado River and it's dying. Past emissions = we're already locked into 14–23ºF average temp rise, likely the extinction of human civilization and our species.

Phoenix will likely be ~abandoned within ~30 yrs. Commercial jets can't liftoff >122ºF; summer asphalt now hits 170ºF = 3d degree burns in seconds. It's also running out of water bc of aquifer depletion and bc the Colorado River is dying from drought in the watershed and Rockies.

Temperature >100ºF is happening months sooner in the year, lasting longer, and rising much higher than 100ºF. Nights with LOWS of 90º+ averaged 7 from 1991–2020, now at 39, *tripled between 2010 and 2024*. Hot nights, no relief, are killer. 2/2 Source: weather.gov/psr/heat

@Ieetness I've studied LV less than Phx but I LV has better secured & managed urban water supplies than most SW cities, ~12 yrs worth of water stored, but the entire SW is in a 23-year megadrought and Lake Mead (90% of LV water) is down to 32% capacity. The deadly heat problem is the same.

@RedBison it’ll be like 130+ every summer in phoenix likely within most’s lifetimes and millions of clowns will still say “it’s the desert, it gets hot”

@TraitorCrater Novella sounds very interesting—thx. That wet-bulb range & hyperthermia is accurate. The extremes we now face make sedentary settlements less & less viable; migration & seasonal dwellings (as in most of human history) are likely the future…but not with a population of 9 billion.

MAGA = Treason
MAGA = Treason@TraitorCrater·
There is a great novella by Adrian Tchaikovsky called “Saturation Point.” The premise is that in the near future the equatorial regions of Earth have been abandoned not because the temperature got too high, but because humidity did. Above somewhere around 95 degrees F and 90% humidity, human beings can no longer survive without artificial cooling, because perspiration doesn’t cool our bodies enough. Hence, if your A/C failed, you died. Therefore, everyone left. I thought it was an interesting and plausible take on climate change.

@RedBison Actually, it’s far less than 3 decades. If they don’t fix the problems up at glen canyon az will get no water from the river, cause the river will no flow past ut border. Glen canyon could be at Deadpool next year, and the dominoes begin to fall

@realdonkeyz @RedBison But I believe real estate developers and the politicians they invest in. The 100 year plans basically say, we’ve secured the right to by water from x , but that water will be gone as well. It’s a house of cards, and it will fall.

This was the long con all the time. Trump was the perfect mark. They had to accelerate because Trump is so gone. That's why it's happening so fast, they're running out of time

Absolute corruption exposed. Ana Kasparian reveals Jared Kushner and Steve Witkoff have massive financial conflicts of interest with Gulf countries. They are literally lying to the American people about Iran to drag the US into a war that benefits their own hedge funds.

Former CIA Director John Brennan confirms that Trump's intelligence chiefs are deliberately hiding facts that contradict his twisted rationale for the Iran war. They are terrified of upsetting Trump while dragging America into a catastrophic conflict.

If the last few years have taught us anything, it is the true nature of tech oligarchs. They are not just cynical opportunists. They are deeply out of touch, wielding unchecked structural power to push dangerous fascist agendas while lacking any self-awareness

JD Vance, a man currently about as popular as leprosy on the European continent, has apparently decided to visit Hungary in the coming days to back Viktor Orban, another man about as popular as leprosy on the European continent, in his failing reelection bid.
