Addressing climate change, risks, and building resilience involves a range of actions at various levels. Here are the key steps that can be taken:

1. Mitigation Measures:

· Reducing greenhouse gas emissions through transitioning to clean and renewable energy sources, improving energy efficiency, and promoting sustainable practices in industries, transportation, and agriculture.

· Implementing policies and regulations that support emissions reduction targets.

· Encouraging sustainable land use practices, such as reforestation and forest conservation.

· Promoting sustainable consumption and waste management.

2. Adaptation Strategies:

· Assessing vulnerability and risks related to climate change impacts on ecosystems, infrastructure, and communities.

· Developing adaptation plans and strategies to enhance resilience, including infrastructure upgrades, water resource management, and disaster risk reduction measures.

· Integrating climate change considerations into urban planning, agriculture, and natural resource management.

· Enhancing early warning systems and emergency preparedness.

3. International Cooperation:

· Collaborating with other nations to share knowledge, technology, and best practices for addressing climate change.

· Participating in international agreements and frameworks like the Paris Agreement to set emission reduction targets and promote global action.

· Supporting developing countries in building climate resilience and adopting sustainable practices through financial and technical assistance.

Now, let's move on to the concepts of Climate Finance and green urban development:

Climate Finance: Climate finance refers to the financial resources mobilized to support climate change mitigation and adaptation activities. It involves funding from various sources, including public and private sectors, national governments, international organizations, and multilateral development banks. The primary goal of climate finance is to support projects and initiatives that reduce greenhouse gas emissions, build resilience, and promote sustainable development in the face of climate change. Climate finance can be used for renewable energy projects, energy efficiency improvements, climate-smart agriculture, adaptation measures, capacity building, and technology transfer to developing countries.

Green Urban Development: Green urban development focuses on creating sustainable and environmentally friendly cities and urban areas. It involves designing and implementing strategies to minimize the ecological footprint of urban areas and improve the quality of life for residents. Key elements of green urban development include:

· Promoting energy-efficient and sustainable building practices.

· Enhancing public transportation systems to reduce reliance on private vehicles.

· Developing green spaces and preserving natural areas within cities.

· Implementing waste management and recycling programs.

To confer solutions to a problem that does not emanate at once rather through accumulation of factors that are directly or indirectly related, is not easy. Uncovering the pieces of the assemblages of these factors is challenging. unifying the individualized and collective solutions into a single form presents seeming impossibilities. Picking up one point for decision-making process or inserting it into policies requires doing, redoing, and reconstructions.

Man-made climate change is bunk. Tidal Pumping. Gravity of Sun & out to Jupiter open up our tectonic plates & vent huge seismic heat into oceans. Oceans drive climate. https://papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cfm?abstract_id=4398306

Progress in understanding Climate Change and its effects needs advances in modeling Climate Phenomena. "IPCC Models" "Climate Models" "General Circulation Models", appellations are of no importance. It is in all cases Physics-Driven Models developed within multi-disciplinary scientific teams worldwide to describe the evolution of weather phenomena (at short time scales) and climate phenomena that involve long time-scale processes, more complex to analyze, as part of these phenomena are not yet well understood.

This is why, despite the enormous progress already achieved, the predictability of Climate Models (The Earth System Models, ESMs), are not yet sufficiently accurate. The standard deviations between the different models remain of the same order of magnitude as the mean values and huge biases on regional levels are noticed and well documented in technical and scientific references of each of the models.

This should lead us to admit that more research is needed to improve our knowledge of the driving forces that control the climate in order to build more accurate predictive climate models, as scientists do well for weather prediction

Iceland volcano erupts on Reykjanes peninsula (BBC, 4 hours ago). Volcanic eruptions, always Fascinating in Beauty and Majesty, remind us in a spectacular way of essential factors in the heat balance of the globe: the transfers at the Visible Lithosphere-Atmosphere Interface in the form of Seismic and Volcanic Activities and the transfers at the Lithosphere-Hydrosphere interface, Invisible because they occur at the bottom of the oceans. Unlike the GHE, the effects of these activities on Climate Change are not well analyzed, at least in Climate Models, including those used in IPCC projections.

Several publications indicate that Coal exploitation and Trade is a sector with substantial opportunity for corruption, especially as it expands into new International Markets. The paper by Setyawati D., 2022, "Injustice and environmental harm in extractive industries and solar energy policies in Indonesia. International Journal for Crime, Justice and Social Democracy. 11(1): 14-27" is, as such, instructive. One may read there: "...the persistent enthusiasm for coal energy and the ambitious deployment of renewable energy may have led to injustices in the energy system , short-sighted corrupt practices, and environmental harm...". The author arrives at a more general conclusion: he demonstrates "how the marginalization of rural communities and production of environmental harm has been perpetuated by powerful figures, reinforced since colonialism, and escalated by the demands of the Global North..."

3 Items to consider:

1) Tidal Pumping by the Sun, Venus, and Jupiter causing submarine volcanism (ocean trenches) which drive short term weather events (El Niño Southern Oscillation - ENSO).

2) Completely unappreciated in the heat balance of the Earth are myriad exothermic geochemical reactions. Tremendous heat AND massive production of CO2, vastly exceeding human contribution.

3) Gravity Waves from Neutron Star Mergers imposing powerful Tidal Pumping stresses and ocean floor volcanism, resulting in extended Global Cooling periods. Such is the case for the submarine volcanic eruption off Tonga-Hunga on Jan. 15, 2022.

An interesting paper by Johnson, Carol. "Variants of Populism." ANU Press, 2023. "Definitions of populism remain highly contested; however, ‘us’ versus ‘them’ arguments are a regular trope in populism. For example, populism commonly mobilises the people against claimed powerful, corrupt elites.. Conclusion : ..Labor’s electorally cautious climate change policies could make it harder to counter Teals’ and Greens’ campaigns mobilising the people against political elites accused of selling out to big business carbon emitters. Populism, in its various forms, seems likely to continue to play a role in Australian electionsPopulism, in its various forms, seems likely to continue to play a role in Australian elections."

All good points and, yes, there are Global Elites who want a One World Government. But they need control. Total control. How do you control someone.

Fear. Control by Fear.

Thus we have a fiction that man burning charcoal on a backyard grill is some kind of Earth-destroying horror. It’s the most gigantic hoax ever. Water, as it goes through the water cycle, is a nearly an infinite and tunable cooling mechanism. If the surface of the planet heats up, for any reason, there is more evaporation, upward convection, cloud formation, condensation to rain (throwing off the Heat of Evaporation into Outer Space) and freezing to snow (throwing off the Heat of Crystallization into Outer Space). A gigantic hoax.

Then we have Covid. More fear.

Then we have China, where everybody needs sufficient “social credits” to travel by auto, bus, train or airplane

It’s all about control..

In these festive days, I would like to mention this 30 year old Paper, "Joy A. Palmer (1993) From Santa Claus to sustainability: emerging understanding of concepts and issues in environmental science, International Journal of Science Education, 15:5 , 487-495", in which the author discusses the nature and development of children's early knowledge and awareness of environmental issues. as strange as it may seem, we learn that "pre‐school children may well have a strong base of accurate scientific knowledge upon which early years environmental teaching may build." Happy Holidays For All
