@ErikUden “And what will they burn instead of coal?”“Water,” replied Harding.“Water!” cried Pencroft, “water as fuel for steamers and engines! water to heat water!”“Yes, but water decomposed into its primitive elements,”[...] "Yes, my friends, I believe that water will one day be employed as fuel, that hydrogen and oxygen which constitute it, used singly or together, will furnish an inexhaustible source of heat and light, of an intensity of which coal is not capable."[...]"Water will be the coal of the future."--Jules Verne, "The Mysterious Island" Part 2, Chapter 11published 1875.I just love this mans visions. He was predicting so much stuff back then.#climate #climatechange #literature #JulesVerne

@ErikUden Listen, I know we're bad about not doing shit on an individual level, but climate change can still be mitigated.We stopped the freakin' ozone layer from being eaten away, we can fucking do this, too.https://www.pbs.org/newshour/science/the-ozone-layer-is-slowly-but-surely-healing-the-un-says

@ErikUden Le charbon est toujours l'énergie numéro un depuis cet période. Le charbon vert est renouvelable. Nous avons les technologies pour rendre ses émissions de CO2 minimale. Nous pouvons même envisager de construire ces centrales électriques modernes au milieu de forêt pour que les arbres absorbe le carbone restant. Pourvu que les lobbies du nucléaire et du minier lui lâche un peu de leste. La Chine a inauguré une de ces centrales électriques au charbon avec peu d'émission récemment.

@ErikUden notice that it is also the first case of underestimating climate change, as the effects set in 100 years later instead of centuries later...

@ErikUden checks out :o https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/1912-article-global-warming/I thought my grandparents couldn't have known about global warming for most of their lives but this is two decades before they were even born. *Their* parents could have known of it already at their birth, depending on how news spread at the time and how seriously this was taken (article says "centuries" as well as having no impact description).I shall have to do more research and update my worldview... thanks :P

@ErikUden In 1896, a seminal paper by Swedish scientist Svante Arrhenius first predicted that changes in atmospheric carbon dioxide levels could substantially alter the surface temperature through the greenhouse effect.

@ErikUden some fellas say that the temperature is already rising due to a natural cycle which is true however the effects the speed of global warming is more than alarming at this unnatural rate.Yet I hope fellas educate themselves of this issue that we've yet to know the magnitude of it's effects.

@ErikUden So this has been "news" for at least a century. Why do governments refuse to do the right thing and keep kow towing to fossil fuel corporations? Tax them extra to clean up ecological damage they have caused and instate renewable energy.

@ErikUden And in 1856, Eunice Newton Foote discovered the greenhouse effect, writing "An atmosphere of that gas [CO2] would give to our earth a high temperature; and if, as some suppose, at one period of its history, the air had mixed with it a larger proportion than at present, an increased temperature from its own action, as well as from increased weight, must have necessarily resulted."

@ErikUden "The 1912 New Zealand snippet was likely based on a four-page spread from Popular Mechanics magazine, which drew from the work of Arrhenius and others.When climate advocates point to articles like this and say we knew about climate change, this overlooks the fact Arrhenius' ideas were generally considered fringe, meaning not many people took them seriously. In fact, there was backlash about how efficient carbon dioxide actually was as a greenhouse gas."https://phys.org/news/2022-08-years-climate-news-ready.amp

@ErikUden On the eve of the 1855 Paris Exposition, Eugène Huzar published "La fin du monde par la science", where he compiled the many worries his contemporaries had about modern industrial practices (building channels, mining coal, burning coal, etc.). One of them reads as follows: "What if turning coal into atmospheric CO2 changed our climate?"https://www.senscritique.com/livre/La_fin_du_monde_par_la_science/205906/details
