Severe Climate System Eruption

The planet’s climate system has turned erratic. Scientific reports over the past 24 months signal trouble ahead as forecasts become impossible with a helter-skelter system. It’s almost like the planet is regurgitating the anthropogenic (human) input of the past couple hundred years within two years, the biggest planetary vomit of all time.

Studies over the past two years increasingly refer to major fundamental shifts that change everything civilization has been built upon, best expressed by John Marsham, professor of Atmospheric Science/University of Leeds: “Our entire infrastructure & civilization are based around a climate that no longer exists.”

For example, recent studies claim scientific models of sea levels have been, and still are, way off base, way too low. Seas are rising uncomfortably fast and coastal megacities are not prepared. A recent article in YaleEnvironment360 entitled A More Troubling Picture of Sea Level Rise Is Coming Into View d/d April 9, 2026 claims; “Scientists have uncovered a ‘blind spot’ in the research on rising seas, revealing that tens of millions of people thought safe from coastal flooding are at risk of inundation. Across much of the world, sea levels are higher than previously assumed and land is sinking faster.”

That ‘sinking feeling’ is global warming (GW) on a binge. This threat to “life as we know it” has already done what scientists thought highly improbable: The rate of global warming nearly doubled in only one decade. Evidence of this is found in the prestigious publication Nature d/d March 6, 2026: Climate Change is Speeding Up – the Pace Nearly Doubled in Ten Years.

The GW binge extends to the oceans covering 2/3rds of the planet. A July 2025 study published in........
