‘We’re F*cked’ – Esquire Mag. profiles warmist scientists: ‘When the End of Human Civilization Is Your Day Job’
'Among many climate scientists, gloom has set in. Things are worse than we think, but they can't really talk about it'
Warmist Jason Box flees America due to 'climate denial' : 'He and his family left Ohio State for Europe a couple years ago, and he is relieved to have escaped America's culture of climate-change denial.'
ARCTIC CARBON RELEASE COULD MEAN "WE'RE F*CKED."Box sees 'seventy-foot rise in sea levels over the next few centuries was probably already 'baked into the system.'
At the darkest end of the spectrum are groups like Deep Green Resistance, which openly advocates sabotage to "industrial infrastructure,"
Warmist vs. Warmist: NASA's Gavin Schmidt: 'I don't agree. I don't think we're f*cked...'Oh, we're f*cked! Just give up now, just kill me now,' that's just stupid...There is time to build sustainable solutions to a lot of these things. You don't have to close down all the coal-powered stations tomorrow. You can transition. It sounds cute to say, 'Oh, we're f*cked and there's nothing we can do,' but it's a bit of a nihilistic attitude. We always have the choice. We can continue to make worse decisions, or we can try to make ever better decisions.'
As Michael Mann sees it, scientists like Schmidt who choose to focus on the middle of the curve aren’t really being scientific. Worse are pseudo-sympathizers like Bjorn Lomborg who always focus on the gentlest possibilities.
Wife of Jason Box: “Lastly, the most difficult question to answer is about Jason [Box’s] mental health. I’d say climate change, and more broadly the whole host of environmental and social problems the world faces, does affect his psyche. He feels deeply about these issues, but he is a scientist and a very pragmatic, goal-oriented person. His style is not to lie awake at night worrying about them but to get up in the morning (or the middle of the night) and do something about it. I love the guy for it :)”
