U.N. Projects the Planet’s Unlivable Areas by 2070 & 2100
The U.N. and International Red Cross have just published their 64-page study, “Extreme Heat: Preparing for the Heatwaves of the Future”, and it contains maps showing which areas of this planet will probably be unlivably hot by 2070, and then by 2100.
(See more-detailed maps in https://www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pnas.2024792118 and especially at https://archive.ph/PZmZF#selection-3127.1-3211.1.)
(See more-detailed maps in https://www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pnas.2024792118 and especially at https://archive.ph/PZmZF#selection-3127.1-3211.1.)
Here is a map showing effects that were produced during 1991-2018:
(See here that study, “The burden of heat-related mortality attributable to recent human-induced climate change”.)
That map shows actually the total percentage of heat-related deaths. The dark red areas shown are Portugal, Spain, Italy, Romania, and Paraguay. The red areas shown are Germany, Finland, Iran, Thailand, Malaysia, Vietnam, Ecuador, Peru, and Brazil. However, this study indicates that “The burden of heat-related mortality attributable to recent human-induced climate change” was actually the highest in four nations that are all in Europe: Germany, Netherlands, Switzerland, and France. Those four countries had the highest global-warming-induced percentages of heat-related deaths. The brevity of the time-period examined, 18 years, suggests that different nations might show in the future, as having the worst results.
And here are the recent global trends (from the U.N-&-Red-Cross report), and the narrow likely-probability range of future results:
Even under the best of circumstances, global warming will continue (uness there will be a global nuclear war).
As I have previously noted, all of the policies that have been instituted, up till now, to prevent continued rise in global temperatures, have been designed to fail, but instead were designed to protect the market-values of fossil-fuel corporations’ equities (stocks) so as to pro-up those industries so that those investors will continue to be able to sell their shares at a profit; and, consequently, if there does still exist a way remaining to prevent this continued global temperature-rise (other than by a global nuclear war followed by a nuclear winter), that way would be to simply outlaw the purchase of stocks and bonds in all fossil-fuel-extracting corporations, which action by any major Government would promptly crash those corporations’ stocks and thereby redirect investments into R&D to develop and build-out thorium-based nuclear power production, which would replace all need for fossil fuels to serve as fuels, and which would therefore terminate further exploration, development, and burning, of such fuels, so as to bring to an end the usage of fossil-fuels as energy-sources. If global-burnout can still be prevented, that is the way it will be done. However, in order for that to happen, governments would need to be far less corrupt (far less beholden to the investor-class, and especially to billionaires) than they all have been.
Obviously, anyone having children under these circumstances is either uninformed about the current situation, or misinformed about it, or doesn’t much care about it, because the prospects for the future are bleak.
As the world gets ever-hotter, there will be less and less arable land, and more and more hunger and starvation, and all populations in the vicinity of the Equator will be trying to emigrate toward the pole, so as to be able to live, but the more that this happens, the more militarized and exclusionary the southern borders will become, in order not to become flooded with poor and desperate people.

Investigative historian Eric Zuesse’s new book, AMERICA’S EMPIRE OF EVIL: Hitler’s Posthumous Victory, and Why the Social Sciences Need to Change, is about how America took over the world after World War II in order to enslave it to U.S.-and-allied billionaires. Their cartels extract the world’s wealth by control of not only their ‘news’ media but the social ‘sciences’ — duping the public.

There is simply no way to infer this based on the data that’s being pimped by globalist entities. Consider the source as they say.
The “source” is the world’s climatologists; so, it very much is plural, not singular.
Sorry, Mr. Zuesse, but you’re being gaslighted. The “science” is hostage to an agenda – too many careers and livelihoods depend on sticking to the narrative, and the media are playing their part too. Nothing like a “global climate crisis” to usher in the New World Order and One World Government. It’s difficult to understand why so many people continue to trust and put their faith in unelected global bodies which have been infested by vested interests, the likes of Klaus Schwab and creepy Bill to name a couple of the most prominent. I’d suggest considering the perspective provided by… Read more »
You’re an enigma, Eric. On one hand you can clearly see that the world is being manipulated by the powers that be and on the other you’re seemingly more than willing to swallow the manipulation.
This climate scam was hatched by the likes of David Rockefeller, Maurice Strong,Stephen Schneider, Bill Gates, Al Gore and the rest of the Club of Rome gang. Were they ‘climatologists’?
The globalist climate “science” conviniently appeared right after Rockefeller’s think tank Club of Rome published limits of growth paper, as a strategy for preservation of imperialist system of exploitation.
There is no human-induced climate change.
The Earth is a finite planet. So pumping up the world’s human population in an artificial manner (The Green Revolution) was a very bad idea and turned into a disaster. Now we are facing all of the consequences of that foolish move. I cannot tell you what all of those may be, but I can tell you that Mother Nature will resolve them one way or another.
The sky is falling!
Fossil fuels liberated the working class. Its why we no longer toil in the fields. Its also why we eat like kings, have warm homes and jet off twice a year. They are the great equaliser – and that is one reason why the billionaire class want to take them away from us again.
So called ‘communist’ movements are always funded by billionaires, and the Green/ Build Back Better/Net Zero agenda is such a movement.
Only the elitist cabal and their useful idiots wants to return the 99.99% to the Stone Age – which are you Mr Zeusse?
Considering the level of methane the US bastards put in the atmosphere (estimated at 300,000 cubic meters – equivalent to over a 1,000,000 cars for a year), and all the CO2 converting trees that EU is cutting down for heating on account of their stupid sanctions, I wouldn’t be at all surprised. The corrupt UN is part of the problem.
