MALTHUS’ GORE WARMING 2

John Michael Greer, author of the Arch Druid Report blog ( and affectionately referred to as The Druid Dude by myself as I have a lot of respect for him despite his inability to see outside a cheerfully optimistic prism-which I understand is as beyond his capability to control as is my fear and paranoia, cynicism and hatred ), on his web page long ago and in his just published book “Dark Age America”, does stick a trembling pinkie toe in the murky waters of Gore Warming induced regional effects.  I applaud him for this, as few actually bother.  Even the most educated scientists turned authors rarely get down to the nitty gritty of weather refugees ( the book I mentioned yesterday that I must search for being the exception ) and instead park in the Alarmist Camp of Gore Warming Porn.  We are all going to die unless we all circle round the village commons and link hands and chant at Mother Gaia.  Sure, they tell us that the oceans will rise X feet and ruin the habitat of most of humanity.  But no one talks about the poor bastards inland who are “displaced” by the refugees.

Greer takes a pretty good guess at what different regions of the US will look like after Gore Warming gets worse.  He assumes the Gulf region will be largely uninhabited due to its low elevation.  The new port cities will be further inland.  All well and good, but Greer likes to travel a century into the future and visit his Permaculture Village.  I really don’t care what 2116 looks like, I’m more worried about 2020 to 2025.  Let’s try a bit of a timeline ( of course, while I’m always right about the general direction, my timing sucks.  Keep that in mind ). 

*

-End of 2016 to summer 2017, The Last Depression hits as the big German bank implodes under its derivatives exposure.  The other central banks think this will give them extra time as they take on the few assets made available, just like Lehman’s, but the US Fracking Field implosion tips everyone over the edge.

-The Federal Reserve is unable to bail out the rest of the Western central banks this time, and the PetroDollar system crashes and burns.  Mid 2017.

-Without half to three quarters of its imported oil available ( excepting the Canadian shale oil still available that the Kunucks realize will keep them from being invaded and occupied ), the US economy instantly collapses. 

-Oil feeds transportation, and everything is transported long distances in the US.  The worst is the food, as urban farm belts long ago turned into suburbs.  The whole economy is built on burning oil, and lots of it.  Late 2017 will see the first mass deaths from lack of heat and inadequate food supplies leading  to malnutrition and that spreads pandemics. 

-Americans, lacking community and spoiled by a lifetime of luxury, with half owning firearms, decide to leave the worst areas and go elsewhere, regardless of how those natives feel about the situation.

*

Spring 2018.  The federal government has pulled back to Maryland with troops more worried about railroad corridor security and controlling the corn production over the northern Plains aquifer as well as Texas and Louisiana petroleum infrastructure than helping out any citizens.  With states left with no resources, local communities are left on their own.  Those turn on themselves.

-Summer 2018 is New Normal with just the regular problems of lack or rain or too much of it.  Pathetic garden crops, most the few germinating seeds from the normal hybrids, do not do well. 

-Hurricane Season 2018 is about New Normal.  Thousand Year Floods, hurricanes behaving strangely.  Any effected area looks about like New Orleans.  Diaspora begins everywhere.

*

Now, keep in mind that the above, while perhaps a bit sooner than reality will bring us, needs nothing more than what is already happening to transpire.  The world saw a severely hot summer about fifteen years ago, then followed by one eight years ago.  I’m not talking about the scare mongers “hottest summer on record” events-we hear about that every year.  I’m talking about newsworthy summers such as when tens of thousands of First World people die from the heat, as millions of acres are burned after weeks of having no electricity.  And haven’t we already seen several instances this century of global wide crop failures?  How can you keep having Thousand Year Floods every third year and still call them millennial?  How do you claim that the Gulf Stream is still regular when interstate highways flood WITHOUT a rain storm?  How many times does Miami or New York City get deluged from the sea before we think something is amiss?  Why don’t we concern ourselves when Alaskan temperatures ( obviously, those locations south of the Artic Circle ) stay above freezing in February while at the same time the East Coast is setting record low temperatures?

*

Don’t you think it is time to stop worrying if Gore Warming is true or not and just focus on your own area and your own personal survival?  Who gives a hump if anthropomorphically warming is a commie plot or the next potential NELLIE ( Near Extinction Level Event )?  You can see with your own eyes that Crap Just Ain’t Right in the weather we have been experiencing.  Plan for the worst case scenario and just be thankful if it doesn’t transpire. 

*

Worse Case Scenario:

-the gardening oasis you think you moved to and investing in will not feed you as the weather changes.

-You live near a craphole spot of biblical proportions which will vomit forth huge tides of humanity towards your location.

-Winters will be much colder, but shorter.  The summers will be hotter and longer.  All snow packs melt immediately come Spring.  Aquifers dry up in all arid regions as Social Security recipients go about watering lawns and washing cars, taking twenty minute showers and wasting water as if they had not a care in the world.  Rationing water takes effect in the form of prohibiting water being served in restaurants automatically which does not effect desert golf courses.  Southern areas will see dry summers interspaced with flooding.

-continued tomorrow.
