He said the pessimist in him mocked his receipt of a degree in law when «law is ever more a hollow word, resonant but empty, in a world increasingly dominated by force, by violence, by fraud, by injustice, by avarice — in a word, by egoism»; when civil law permits «the progressive and rapid increase of oppressed people who continue being swept toward ghettos, without work, without health, without instruction, without diversion and, not rarely, without God»; when under so - called international law «more than two - thirds of humanity (exist) in situations of misery, of hunger, of subhuman life»; and when agrarian law or spatial law permits «today's powerful landowners to continue to live at the cost of misery for unhappy pariahs»; and whereby «modern technology achieves marvels from the earth with an ever - reduced number of rural workers (while) those not needed in the fields live sublives in depressing slums on the outskirts of nearly all the large cities.»

This is that, under the combined influence of two irresistible forces of planetary dimensions (the geographical curve of the Earth, by which we are physically compressed, and the psychic curve of Thought, which draws us closer together), the power of reflection of the human mass, which means its degree of humanization, far from having come to a stop, is entering a critical period of intensification and renewed growth.

My purpose has long been to help people make sense of the momentous environmental and social changes under way on this «pale blue dot» called Earth, the forces behind those changes, and what policies and practices can foster human progress while limiting regrets.

Here we apply such a method using near surface air temperature observations over the 1851 — 2010 period, historical simulations of the response to changing greenhouse gases, aerosols and natural forcings, and simulations of future climate change under the Representative Concentration Pathways from the second generation Canadian Earth System Model (CanESM2).

This in turn also leads to lateral growth of the Walker Cell — and therefore pole - ward migration (on both hemispheres) of the subtropical subsidence zone, where air under downward force is compressed at the Earth surface and semi-perminent high pressure systems lead to strucutural drought and desertification.

These activities can be grouped under the following areas: improve our knowledge of Earth's past and present climate variability and change; improve our understanding of natural and human forces of climate change; improve our capability to model and predict future conditions and impacts; assess the Nation's vulnerability to current and anticipated impacts of climate change; and improve the Nation's ability to respond to climate change by providing climate information and decision support tools that are useful to policy makers and the general public.»

QRA can be regarded as an extension of the Haurwitz - type mechanism (42) of a strong increase in the amplitude of the midlatitude atmospheric barotropic wave system response to stationary external barotropic thermal forcing, with a spatial frequency m approaching the natural stationary spatial frequency k of the wave system, to the case of external barotropic thermal and orographic forcing under a latitude - dependent u ¯ and an integer m over the midlatitude belt on the spherical Earth.

We make use of a 40 - member ensemble of climate change simulations under historical and RCP8.5 radiative forcing scenarios for the period 1920 — 2100 conducted with the Community Earth System Model Version 1 (CESM1; Hurrell et al. 2013).

«The Earth's climate system is highly nonlinear: inputs and outputs are not proportional, change is often episodic and abrupt, rather than slow and gradual, and multiple equilibria are the norm... there is a relatively poor understanding of the different types of nonlinearities, how they manifest under various conditions, and whether they reflect a climate system driven by astronomical forcings, by internal feedbacks, or by a combination of both... [We] suggest a robust alternative to prediction that is based on using integrated assessments within the framework of vulnerability studies... It is imperative that the Earth's climate system research community embraces this nonlinear paradigm if we are to move forward in the assessment of the human influence on climate.»

And we know that slow feedbacks might not be so slow under the fast forcing regime we've subjected the Earth's climate to.

«The «regulate CO2» push will focus «inside the fence» on existing plants by trying to force the use of very expensive technology, but CO2 is a benign gas required for life on Earth, so there would be no commensurate environmental improvement under any CO2 regulatory regime.»
