Runaway Global Warming

Why Is There NOTHING Real About Coming Runaway Global Warming From the US Left?
Dear "left":
Coming runaway global warming trumps all other topics. This is not arguable. Coming runaway global warming is more important than food, water and air because it directly pre-empts the availability of all these as it forms in aggregating positive feedback loops. This topic is more important than social and economic justice even though we humans will get nowhere towards satisfactory ammeliation efforts against global warming without socio-economic REVOLUTION--NOW. Why is revolution not being directly discussed? Are more than 99.99% of you asleep sheep?
Remember and research that METHANE CH4 is 23x (minimum) the global warming agent that CO2 is and works right away to warm the atmosphere. Part of this is because CH4 is a larger molecule with a larger surface area. Start reeding peer reviewed articles in the science mags about this right now, such as Science, Nature and many others. The CO2 problem is bad and unavoidable enough. However, the CH4, methane, threat factor in the positive feedback loops of global warming now aggregating, is far worse and needs to be addressed by the left and radical community(s) NOW! There are thousands of billions of tons of CH4 very inadequately trapped in hydrates in the ocean outside of the "bad enough" 450GT melting rapidly in Siberia at this time.
CH4 is melting and being released from permafrost deposits in Siberia (450GT minimum). There are about 750GT total of C02 in the atmosphere right now. We are adding (more than 50% from the USA) more than 7GT of CO2 more each year to the atmosphere. Normal interglacial total atmospheric CO2 is 550GT (gigaton is a billion tons) If CH4 works pretty much right away and it all melts in the next 10 years or so from this one source in Siberia alone, we're looking at a warming effect many dozens of times worse than what we are so far NOT experiencing yet from the slower process of CO2 effects. I say "not" partly tongue in cheek because we are only currently experiencing 1/2 (human generated dust) the possible effect of CO2 warming to about the 1950's. We have yet to experience the CO2 warming from the far grander inputs after the 1950's. We are definitely in the exponential part of the warming curve. CH4 is going to push us to the point of no return and extinction within 5-10 years (not an exaggeration--do the God damned math) with a maximum possible survival period of probably 40-100 years if VERY lucky with lots of unacceptable trouble. That is, if we aren't all wiped off the planet by the idiot wealthy/military brass/covert leadership elite by nuclear, biological war/genocide against those poorer than themselves. The normal total atmosphere load of CO2 during glacial periods is from ~360GT-400GT.
This is an alarmest commentary rant. And an alarmest torque is absolutely appropriate. I'm wondering where the hell are the other whistle blowers on the human cognitively dissonant perniciously invasive hoard are (that includes we smug lefties too). We don't have time for you to "get it" or for you to be blythly cognitively dissonant. We don't have time for you to be entertained into idiocy.
REVOLUTION. What is it? Simple. SHARE. No hierarchy and hoarding. How to bring it about? Simple. SHARE...and...eliminate, undermine, challenge, destroy, subsume, knock down, radically alter ALL hierarchy NOW in your daily lives.
Next? Get the fuck out of your political/social/economic comfort zone EVERY FUCKING DAY!!!
If you hoard, and if you're an American of the US, you do, start sharing a lot more than you do. CHALLENGE yourself and learn MORE compassion palpably every day. IRRITATE authority, but don't get arrested. There's a fine line. Most importantly, FORCE those wealthier than you (wherever possible) to SHARE now. When we have enough momentum, we will have to force the master thieves/hoarders to liquidate their assets for anti-global warming goals. Such goals will include IMMEDIATE--CARBON BINDING and species diversity preservation efforts. If you think we have any choice about having to do any of this, your'e WRONG. You have no choice. However, you have a choice in HOW to do it. If you can teach people how to get this rolling NOW without violence, then do it. If it's not about NOW and your message is fucking wait, wait, wait! Then we die. Simple.
I'm sure there are those out there with skills to quicken the masses non-violently and quietly. However, many of us don't have these skills and now more than ever we need to make mistakes to learn how to do revolution. We've resisted revolution in the US (the greatest world threat/terrorist/polluter EVER) for too long. We're out of practice. No problem. If peasants in winter in a picked over environmentally devastated nation can do revolution TWICE, we can do it and must.
Two most important things now to do WHILE performing revolution: CARBON BINDING and preserve all species DIVERSITY and expand diversity. Without these two things all humans will die. Why? For many growing and aggregating reasons, but most likely from the development of microbial lifeforms that will kill off most higher order vertabrates long before we die from lack of oxygen or from even from starvation due to coming increasingly acid rains destroying all food crops, lack of water, whatever. Carbon binding, means plant fast growing trees about a USDA zone warmer EVERYWHERE there's empty land.
CARBON BINDING is important and not without risks. We will have quite a lot of warming anyway. Some plants produce methane when too warm. Expanding and preserving species diversity is also quite complex. That means we need most humans or at least BILLIONS of humans to become expert at ecology and creating contrived ecosystems because we will have to move ecosystems on a continuous basis soon as in NOW and more and more each year.
STEWARDSHIP of the environment we're fucking up is the role for humanity in the overall earth ecosystem. Again, if we avoid and play cognitively dissonant and prepare our children for school and college and their futures that are not coming at all as you see them, we all die and take 80% of 15,000,000 or so other species with us. So wake the fuck up! Be uncomfortable. Be afraid now so you can get the fuck over it.
Vet any FACT that I've put in this article. If you're using mainstream news sources outside of the scientific community, you will not get any information. You see, information informs. Information is nearly impossible to find in the English language in all corporate media online or not anywhere on the planet or cyberspace. You must develop a deep critical consciousness. Everyone can. No one has any excuse for not developing their fucking 10T-cell brains at this time. Get to work!
WAKE UP!

P.S. Not a time for coddling or making excuses for yourselves or especially for those who are in positions of power at every level of our totally unsustainable socio-economic sysem based in theft, environmental rape and exploitation.
The only sustainable human sysems so far in the past 5M years of our existence and particularly in the past 10K years or so? Hunter/gatherers. No hierarchy, No hoarding. EGALITARIAN all sharing. Not perfect. But the ONLY system that is sustainable in the long run. Globalization, being the most complex hierarchy and the most complex system of hoarding is the LEAST sustainable in all history. Globalization =guaranteed self annihilation within a few short years to a few short DECADES at the outside.
