fortunately, it’s a grandkid…so there’s a decent chance the influence is minimal

…the human capacity for denial and suffering may be equal or greater than our ability to change our ways or admit wrongdoing.
If that’s true then about all that we can do is just adapt.
who pays for that, particularly in the global tropics?

the future is now

“Two-thirds of North America is at risk of energy shortfalls this summer during periods of extreme demand,” the North American Energy Reliability Corporation (NERC) concluded in its summer outlook published last month.

According to NERC, virtually the entire United States west of the Mississippi River could suffer energy shortages during “extreme conditions.” That includes the Western half of the United States, the Central region and the power system that serves most of Texas. New England and Ontario are also at “elevated” risk of blackouts, NERC said.

“The elevated risk outlook is driven by a combination of conventional generation requirements, a substantial increase in forecast peak demand and an increasing threat to reliability from a widespread heat event,” NERC said.
