Central and Eastern Himalayan glaciers are melting at astonishing speed and could virtually disappear by 2035.

Two-thirds of all Himalayan glaciers are set to vanish within decades.

'The famed snows of Kilimanjaro have melted more than 80 percent since 1912. Glaciers in the Garhwal Himalaya in India are retreating so fast that researchers believe that most central and eastern Himalayan glaciers could virtually disappear by 2035.'

'The hydro-meteorological impact of climate change will go beyond countries like Nepal or Bhutan. Heavily populated and rapidly developing downstream areas of China, Southeast Asia, India, Pakistan and Bangladesh will face severe water crises.' insideclimatenews.org/news/05022019/…

Remember:

1) 1.7°C of global warming by 2029 looks likely.

2) Catastrophic, simultaneous, global crop failures by 2029 therefore also look likely.

3) State/corporate media silence on the possibility of horrific, simultaneous, global crop failures by 2029 is very, very likely.

The more people know, the more chance of action.
Today, in 2020, we're at 1.3°C at least (see article). According to Paul Beckwith we're already at 1.4°C.

The increase per decade would appear to be ~0.3C, but the trend seems to be towards acceleration.

This is the thinking for 1.7C by 2029 being likely.vox.com/energy-and-env…

How do feel about the very real risk of catastrophic simultaneous global crop failures becoming exceedingly high by 2029 due to global warming of 1.7°C from increasing emissions and terrifyingly powerful Arctic albedo & permafrost feedbacks? I feel very very vote Bernie Sanders.
Risks of simultaneous crop failure 'increase disproportionately between 1.5 and 2°C, so surpassing the 1.5°C threshold will represent a threat to global food security.'

We're at 1.3/1.4°C.

Warming is ~0.25°C per decade, but feedbacks may well boost this.sciencedirect.com/science/articl…
Jet stream disruption, droughts, extreme heat waves and flooding are all set to cause food production havoc this decade.

And if not by 2029, then soon afterwards...

Have you heard? All gone by 2029:

1. 50% of bird species
2. 50% of East Himalayan glaciers
3. 90% of tropical forests
4. 90% of freshwater animals
5. 90% of coral reefs
6. 90% of mangrove forests
7. 99% of Arctic summer sea ice

One tweet's worth a million newspaper front pages.
40% of bird species are already in decline today.

The scale of bird destruction is 'unlike anything recorded in modern natural history.'

N. America offers a dire case study for future species annihilation (we'll hit 1.7°C by 2029):
Glaciers are vanishing with terrifying speed all around the world.

Mueller adds obstruction charge on Manafort and Indicts his right-hand man Konstantin Kilimnik:

Conspiracy against USA
Conspiracy to Launder Money
False Statements
FARA (unregistered, false misleading stmts)
Obstruction of Justice
Conspiracy to OJ
Forfeiture
🍿Buckle Up2🍿

Konstantin Kilimnik indicted & superseding indictment for Manafort.

Petten likely next indicted.

Under Trump, “America First” = America Alone👿

Even citizens of G-7 countries have soured on America

Trump ask to invite RU back into the G7 is flatly rejected.
🍿Buckle Up3🍿

Macron & Trudeau hurt Trump’s fee fees, so 45 ducks out climate portion of G7- G6 says good riddance.

NYTs & other RU etc. compro’d media outlets are likely under CI inv’n.

#TeamDeza Journos 💰 for doing the bidding of foreign nations, FARA Regis’s are advised.
