by Daniel Brouse Introdution 🌎 THE FUTURE OF HUMANITY +4°C → +7°C: From Civilization Crisis to Human Survival Crisis What happens to humanity if Earth doesn’t stop at +2°C or +3°C—but eventually reaches +4°C and then +7°C? There is no scientifically established population number for a +7°C Earth. But the physical constraints are becoming increasingly […]

From Climate Denial to Climate Authoritarianism: Fossil Fascism, Ecofascism, and Petro-Masculinity
by Daniel Brouse Introdution 🌎 FROM CLIMATE DENIAL TO CLIMATE AUTHORITARIANISM Climate politics is evolving. As outright denial becomes harder to sustain, the narrative can shift from: “Climate change isn’t happening.”→ “Fixing it will cost too much.”→ “Blame the outsiders.”→ “Protect our resources.” This article examines four related concepts: 🔹 Climate denial & climate delay🔹 […]
When Climate Change Hits the Wallet: Insurance, Interest Rates, and Taxes
by Daniel Brouse What will change consumer behavior when it comes to climate change? Money. Insurance, interest rates, and taxes. Most consumers do not substantially change their behavior until doing nothing becomes cost prohibitive. For years, we assumed that climate change was unlikely to change consumer behavior in the near term. Climate change seemed too […]
Where Did the Hurricane Energy Go? Jersey Shore to the Outer Banks
by Daniel Brouse El Niño, Atlantic Niña, Teleconnections, and a Real-Time Climate Experiment on the Jersey Shore Tonight’s “homework” is to observe one of the most fascinating manifestations of chaos theory in real time: climate teleconnections. And, of course, it has a lot to do with the Butterfly Effect. The question is simple: What happens […]
Climate Denialism, Obfuscation, Suppression and Normalization
By Daniel Brouse Simplified Introduction UK Climate Security: From Suppression to the Domino Effect Climate change is increasingly moving from the category of environmental problem into the category of systemic risk. A recently reported UK national-security assessment warned that climate and ecological disruption can cascade across borders—affecting food security, economies, migration, and political stability. The […]
Climate Denialism and the Domino Effect
by Daniel Brouse From Climate Shock to Food Disruption, Economic Shock, Migration, Political Instability, and Conflict Abstract Climate change is often discussed as a sequence of individual environmental impacts: higher temperatures, droughts, floods, crop failures, sea-level rise, wildfires, and ecosystem degradation. This framing can obscure a more consequential property of the climate system: climate shocks […]
Climate Change, Acceleration, and Inertia (Simplified)
🌎 CLIMATE CHANGE, ACCELERATION & INERTIA Climate change is not simply a matter of temperatures gradually rising. It is an energy problem. More energy is entering the climate system than leaving it—and most of that excess energy is being absorbed by the oceans. That creates INERTIA. But something else is happening. As warming crosses critical […]
Climate Change, Acceleration, and Inertia
by Daniel Brouse and Sidd Mukherjee Climate Change Climate change has been primarily driven by fossil-fuel emissions creating an energy imbalance. More energy is entering the climate system than is leaving. The accumulation of that energy manifests first as rising temperatures and increasingly as extreme weather energy events such as storms and heatwaves. Most of […]
When Climate Feedbacks Begin to Accelerate
by Daniel Brouse Low Clouds, Ozone, and the Emerging Climate Jerk Surge The Question We Should Be Asking A common assumption in climate projections is that if humanity eventually stops adding greenhouse gases to the atmosphere, global temperatures will eventually stabilize. That basic physical expectation remains important. But it leaves out a potentially critical question: […]
Why Hasn’t There Been a Hurricane?
by Daniel Brouse How Is Climate Change Hitting You? Climate Energy Is Being Redistributed Q: What’s your take on not having a single hurricane this season? Great question! I’ve written several papers on this topic, and I think what we’re seeing is particularly interesting. As of September 23, the Atlantic has produced six named storms […]
