Because doing the right thing means acting now for our planet’s future.

A New Beginning: Opening Climate Tribe to the Public

In less than two weeks, on November 5th, 2024—a date that proudly coincides with our country’s Election Day—I am thrilled to announce the opening of Climate Tribe, the child-site of Climate Change Community LLC. This is more than just a coincidence; it’s a symbol of change, unity, and new beginnings.

The journey to this point has been a whirlwind of emotions—nervousness, anxiety, excitement, and concern—as I’ve never taken such a significant step into the public eye. Knowing that many are watching what unfolds after our opening adds to the anticipation. Initially, access to Climate Tribe will require approval before proceeding. This temporary vetting process aims to build up our founding members and moderators. If anyone wishes to become a moderator or a founding member (or both), your contribution would be immensely valuable.

Strengthening Our Defenses: Upgrading Security

Prior to opening Climate Tribe, I’ve temporarily closed down all my external sites to upgrade their security to the pro version—a process that will take a few days. Rest assured, Climate Tribe is already robust in its security features and remains unaffected. The sites undergoing upgrades include:

• ClimateChangeCommunity.com
• Green-Bodega.com
• cccmty.com
• climategut.com
• eXit235.com
• And some private communities

I want to express my deepest gratitude to Google for their support during tough times, especially when I faced what they identified as a “focused attack.” These challenges have significantly enhanced my understanding of cybersecurity. I’ve even developed new methods of utilizing AI for security measures.

Extending a Hand to All

To those who have followed my journey—including those who have questioned, doubted, or even tried to undermine my efforts—I want you to know that when those unprecedented storms arrive, which I anticipate around 2026, and if I see you in dire need, I will not hesitate to extend my hand and offer assistance. My commitment to helping others remains steadfast, regardless of past disagreements or skepticism.

We must lay down the “Us versus Them” mentality that has divided us for too long. When you’re up to your neck in floodwaters or facing the devastating impacts of climatic or ecological disasters, it won’t matter who you are or what you believe; what will matter is our shared humanity and our ability to support one another. Assistance in such critical moments is always appreciated and often essential for survival.

While you might not currently embrace the reality of the challenges we’re facing, the effects of climate change are indiscriminate. They do not recognize political affiliations, beliefs, or ideologies. We will all have to contend with the consequences, and it’s imperative that we support each other, regardless of any past conflicts or differing viewpoints.

I hold no resentment toward those who have opposed me. Instead, I choose to focus on compassion and the greater good. My door will always be open to you, and I will stand by your side in times of crisis. Together, we can overcome the obstacles ahead, but it requires setting aside our differences and working collaboratively.

Let us use the impending challenges as an opportunity to bridge divides and foster a spirit of unity. By coming together, we can build resilience, share resources, and support each other through the hardships that may come. It’s not too late to start listening to one another, to understand different perspectives, and to find common ground.

In the face of adversity, our shared experiences can become a powerful force for change. Let’s prioritize empathy, cooperation, and mutual aid as we navigate the uncertain future. I believe in our collective capacity to rise above divisions and face whatever comes our way with courage and solidarity.

Ultimately, it’s not about who’s right or wrong—it’s about ensuring that we all have the opportunity to thrive despite the challenges ahead. Let’s commit to standing together, helping one another, and building a future where compassion triumphs over conflict.

Gratitude to Our Supporters

Honoring Our Climate Warriors

We must cease all division and recognize that the severity of what’s approaching will require us to lay down our assumptions, judgments, and insecurities to help each other. It’s hard to harbor racism, hatred, or degrade others because of their belief in science, religion, or anything else when you are being pounded by the Climate and Ecological (Green) Emergency.

I want to send a particular message to the following career individuals whom we term as Climate Warriors within Climate Change Community. These are those on the very front lines of our Climate and Ecological (Green) Emergencies, even if they might not realize it:

1. Emergency Services: Your quick responses save lives and mitigate disaster impacts.
2. Firefighters: You battle the flames intensified by climate change, protecting communities.
3. Nurses: You care for those affected by climate-induced health issues.
4. Law Enforcement: You maintain order during chaotic environmental events.
5. Infrastructure Workers: You rebuild and fortify our cities against future threats.
6. Essential Services Workers: You keep society functioning amidst crises.
7. Teachers: You educate the next generation about sustainability and stewardship.
8. Young Adults (Particularly Young Community Leaders): You bring fresh perspectives and energy to drive change.
9. Government, State, Town, City, Village Officials: You implement policies that protect and prepare our communities.

Please see the blog posts at eXit235.com on November 5th, where I delve into every single aspect of Climate Tribe and these careers. This will allow you to view the inner workings before even joining.

Embracing Adaptive Resiliency Together

From the bottom of my heart, I believe we need to become experts in Adaptive Resiliency, and I want to take the public on this journey with me—literally. Climate Tribe is a doorway towards collective collaboration and cooperation, all based on “face-to-face dialogue.” It will become a Climate and Ecological (Green) Emergency Control Center of sorts.

For instance, I have years of experience in basic help desk and tech support, and assisting others through their technological challenges brings me joy. Learning is another passion of mine; I see saying “I don’t know” as something beautiful because it means I get to learn something new. I want to extend these passions through three mini-communities, or “spaces”:

1. Adaptive Resiliency Space: Together, we’ll become informed and perhaps even experts at adaptive strategies and life-saving skills.
2. Green Tech Café: A place to ask tech support questions and explore tech circularity. I envision us innovating and improving aspects within this field.
3. Sustainable Book Club Lab: Each person can run their own reading lab. My first book will focus on becoming an expert listener, a skill I believe is crucial to tackling our Climate and Ecological (Green) Emergency.

Nowhere else will you find these three topics—Adaptive Resiliency, a Green Tech Café, and a Sustainable Book Club Lab—in one place for a total of $25.00 a year. This could be one of the first plans you sign up for after cCc Nudge, which is my own dialogue center where we can get to know each other. No one is ever refused dialogue once approved to join this space.

Inviting Founding Members and Moderators

As indicated, I am currently in the phase of bringing in:

1. Founding Members: Every organization has those dedicated and committed members who help improve it. They are an integral part of this organization and are truly valued and respected for their input. If you would like to be a founding member, please go through cCc Nudge at Climate Tribe or send me a direct email (without links) at hello@climatechangecommunity.com. Just reference your external social media account without links, such as “find me on Twitter using this account ‘@johndoe’.”
2. Moderators: I have several mini-communities or spaces in place now that cover just about every single topic of both the Climate and Ecological (Green) Emergency. When I say literally, I mean it. There are so many that I had to break them down by themes or deeper topics. You can see this for yourself by visiting eXit235.com on November 5th when I share new blog posts on this topic.
3. Hold Account Requests: I’ve received around 38 requests, many from family and friends near Toulouse, France, who have followed my blog posts for years, starting with tito235.wordpress.com.
4. Focused Invites: This refers to people I’ve met in various trainings or have seen in webinars or online climate meetings, many of which were based on trainings from amazing organizations like The Climate Reality Project, The Climate Mobilization, NY Renews, Sunrise Movement, and several others worldwide. I will be personally contacting these people to invite them directly to become founding members, moderators, or both.
5. Personal Invites: This refers to anyone I invite, whether they have climate and ecological training or not. These are family, friends, and those close to me whom I would be honored to have as part of this endeavor.

I suggest that although there are many mini-communities in Climate Tribe, you can apply for subscription approval through any of them. I will be mostly in the Adaptive Resiliency, Green Tech Café, Sustainable Book Club Lab, and the Diet and Health Challenge spaces. Perhaps you can subscribe to one of these at the inception and, over time, subscribe to others, as this is how our platform is designed. I will be approving or, in some cases, denying access quickly, so you won’t have to wait long.

A Call to Unity and Action

I understand many prefer to read what I post here and might think creating this venue is futile due to the severity of our emergencies at this point. However, we must never give up trying to improve our planet for our children and their future. We must never stop supporting our biodiversity’s recovery from ecocidal activities. We must always be educating ourselves, and now it requires becoming both adaptive and resilient—Adaptively Resilient—by necessity.

“We do not inherit the Earth from our ancestors; we borrow it from our children.” — Native American Proverb

In Part II below, I break down in very specific detail, based on a particular IPCC report, why we need to expedite our efforts.

Final Thoughts of Part I

From the bottom of my heart, I want to express that we must cease all divisions and recognize that we require leaders and an informed public to be reactive to emergencies but also to ramp up and educate ourselves towards proactiveness. My goal is to become an expert in Adaptive Resiliency, and I invite you to join me on this journey. Through Climate Tribe, we can work closely together, invent new adaptive measures, and see neighbors and those who once didn’t get along finally collaborating.

Let us respect each other and lay down our differences because the severity of what is on its way will require us to help each other. Assistance, no matter who it is from, is always appreciated. Together, we can embrace eco-conscious choices, foster a harmonious coexistence with nature, and serve as beacons of inspiration for others on the journey towards a greener and more sustainable world.

“The Earth is what we all have in common.” — Wendell Berry

Thank you for being part of this mission. Your support and collaboration mean the world to me.

Part II: Facing the Unseen Storm: An Urgent Call to Action Against Climate Catastrophe

If it is the right thing to do, I am going to be doing it.

Why do I warn of a terrible storm coming in 2026? Two reasons compel me to sound this alarm.

First, the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) Report from February 2007 provides a stark warning about the increasing frequency and severity of extreme weather events if we do not change our current trajectory. Scientists highlighted that continued greenhouse gas emissions are likely to lead to more intense storms and climatic disruptions.

Second, given that we have become accustomed to worsening storms over recent years, it is reasonable to surmise that future storms may be even more devastating. The pattern of escalating extreme weather events suggests that without immediate action, we could face unprecedented natural disasters.

Many people around the world are adamant about ending our reliance on fossil fuels and are frustrated that this transition hasn’t happened yet. It’s astonishing that we continue to engage in practices that harm our planet (such as manufacturing gas powered vehicles), effectively putting our own future at risk. We’re not just damaging the Earth; we’re erasing any chance for our children to enjoy a sustainable future, along with countless animal species and plant life.

The Unseen Monster: Understanding the Climate and Ecological (Green) Emergency

Many struggle to grasp the full scope of our Climate and Ecological (Green) Emergency. The reality is obscured because we tend to focus on immediate, close-at-hand issues rather than long-term effects—a habit we must transform and stop taking all denial-based discourse as fact. This lack of foresight prevents us from fully imagining the catastrophic consequences that lie ahead.

Drawing from my independent research, particularly the IPCC Report released on February 2, 2007, I aim to shed light on the progressive effects of continued warming, leading up to a 6-degree Celsius increase. This is not about inciting panic but about awakening us to the stark reality and urgency of our situation.

The Progressive Effects of Continued Warming

Increased Warming Past 1.5°C: The Path We’re On

• Coral Reef Devastation: Coral reefs worldwide are disappearing at alarming rates due to rising sea temperatures.
• Emerging Deserts in North America: A new dust wasteland will spread from Southern Texas up to Montana, originating in Nebraska, transforming five U.S. states into deserts.
• End of Cattle Ranching: The expansion of sand dunes will render cattle ranching a distant memory.
• Agricultural Collapse: The Midwest’s agriculture will become obsolete as fertile lands turn to desert.
• Sea-Level Rise: The accelerated melting of Greenland’s ice sheets will submerge channels, deltas, and entire nations, displacing millions.
• Water Scarcity in Peru: Over 10 million people in Peru will face severe water shortages due to the melting Andean glaciers.
• Great Barrier Reef Extinction: Warming seas will decimate Australia’s Great Barrier Reef, and tropical coral reefs will edge closer to extinction.
• Mass Extinction of Species: A significant portion of global animal species and plant life will vanish, disrupting the intricate web of life.

More Warming Leads to Greater Catastrophes

• Rainforests Turn to Deserts: The remaining Amazon will burn, creating uninhabitable conditions and mountains of ash across South America.
• Polar Ice Caps Melt Completely: The North Pole will become ice-free for the first time in three million years, leading to the extinction of polar bears, walruses, and seals.
• Water Crisis in California: The Sierra Nevada snowpack will vanish, leaving California without a vital water source.
• Desertification in Africa: The Kalahari Desert will expand, displacing tens of millions.

A Chain Reaction of Disasters

• Methane Release from Siberia: Melting Siberian permafrost will release massive amounts of methane and CO₂, causing global temperatures to soar.
• Massive Sea-Level Rise: Melting ice caps will displace over 100 million people, especially in Bangladesh, the Nile Delta, and Shanghai.
• Uninhabitable Sub-Tropics: Heatwaves and droughts will make much of the sub-tropics unlivable.
• Migration and Conflict: Large-scale migrations will strain resources in Europe as deserts grow in Southern Spain, Italy, and Greece.
• Global Food Shortages: Agriculture will collapse in Australia, and world food supplies will dwindle.

The Tipping Point: Irreversible Damage

• West Antarctic Ice Sheet Collapse: Its disintegration will add five meters to global sea levels, leading to further catastrophic flooding.
• Total Ice-Free Planet: Continued warming could raise sea levels by an additional seventy meters.
• Societal Collapse in South Asia: The disappearance of Himalayan glaciers will dry up the Indus River, causing societal breakdown.
• Extreme Weather Events: Super El Niños will create global weather chaos, and new types of hyper-hurricanes will devastate lands.

The Final Stages: A Planet Uninhabitable

• Mass Extinction: Most life forms will be eradicated as temperatures continue to rise.
• Methane Fireballs: Methane hydrates released from oceans will ignite, causing firestorms across the sky.
• Oceans Turn Toxic: Stagnant, oxygen-deprived oceans will release poisonous hydrogen sulfide gas, destroying the ozone layer.
• Deserts to the Poles: Deserts will extend nearly to the Arctic, leaving humanity struggling to survive in polar shelters.

Conclusion: The Time to Act is Now

We cannot continue down this path toward extinction. We cannot do this to our children or the myriad forms of life that share this planet. It’s imperative that we demand viable Climate Action from our elected officials and leaders. Had we been proactive earlier, we might have averted some of these dire consequences.

“The greatest threat to our planet is the belief that someone else will save it.” — Robert Swan

We must believe in the cause and effect of science. We must wake our conscience and vote to stop our ecological and climate suicide. Our sun—a massive nuclear reactor in the sky—provides abundant energy. Why not harness it instead of turning our planet into a barren wasteland?

To those running for office, regardless of political affiliation: Denialism will no longer be tolerated by voters. The cumulative effects of daily CO₂ emissions are leading us toward unavoidable climate disasters. If you do not believe in climate science, I urge you to withdraw your candidacy. We cannot afford leaders who ignore the most pressing crisis of our time.

An Addendum: A Personal Appeal

I hope this heartfelt plea helps put things in perspective. We are truly trying to save humanity from the damage wrought by greed, arrogance, and a hunger for power. Preserving our planet, embracing eco-conscious choices, and fostering a harmonious coexistence with nature is not just the right thing to do—it’s the only thing to do.

“We are not inheriting the Earth from our ancestors; we are borrowing it from our children.” — Native American Proverb

Let us reflect on the intricate web of life and the urgency of sustainable practices. Our collective actions now will serve as beacons of inspiration for others on the journey toward a greener and more sustainable world.

Moving Forward: Embracing Adaptive Resiliency

As we face these challenges, Adaptive Resiliency becomes more than a concept—it becomes a necessity. We must educate ourselves and work together to develop adaptive strategies and life-saving skills. Through Climate Tribe, we can collaborate, innovate, and build a community dedicated to confronting these emergencies head-on.

Join the Movement: Be Part of the Solution

I invite you to join me on this journey. Whether as a founding member, a moderator, or an active participant, your involvement is crucial. Together, we can:

• Raise Awareness: Share knowledge and educate others about the realities of our Climate and Ecological (Green) Emergency.
• Take Action: Implement sustainable practices in our daily lives and advocate for policies that protect our planet.
• Support Each Other: Build a community that fosters cooperation, understanding, and mutual aid in the face of impending challenges.

“Alone, we can do so little; together, we can do so much.” — Helen Keller

Final Thoughts For Part II

I know I sound like a broken record, repeating warnings and heads-up alarms, however we must lay down our divisions and unite in the face of a common threat. The severity of what is on its way requires us to help each other, regardless of our differences. Assistance, no matter who it is from, is always appreciated.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart for standing with me and sharing in this mission. Your support and collaboration mean the world to me.

If it is the right thing to do, I am going to be doing it.

Addendum: Climate Emergency: Delay Means Death

Because safeguarding our planet for future generations is the right thing to do.

An Urgent Call to Action

In 2021, Greta Thunberg highlighted a critical issue: while nations pledged to reduce CO₂ emissions and aimed for net-zero goals, they often overlooked the CO₂ released from fires and natural disasters. These emissions create a dangerous feedback loop that accelerates climate change, demanding our immediate attention.

Our oceans, once reliable absorbers of carbon, are now under unprecedented stress. Extreme weather events are becoming more severe:

• Powerful winds threaten to turn cars into deadly projectiles.
• Heatwaves exceed human endurance, posing serious health risks.
• Floods rise above rooftops, destroying homes and livelihoods.

Catastrophes that skeptics once dismissed are now grim realities, proving the urgent need for proactive measures.

We must envision and create resilient communities. Imagine quickly deployable shelters that can protect people who cannot evacuate in time or face unexpected climatic events. These elevated structures could safeguard up to twenty individuals against floods and debris, standing strong against the forces that threaten us.

However, our path to resilience is hindered by the constant aftermath of disasters. Efforts to clean and rebuild divert attention and resources from proactive initiatives. Resilience remains an aspiration confined by complacency—a cycle we can break only by declaring a Climate Emergency.

As a concerned citizen, I believe innovation is key to our salvation. This conviction, outlined in my Green Emergency Manuscript (GEM) and soon to be shared on Climate Tribe’s Adaptive Resiliency Space, calls for us to step beyond conventional thinking. The Climate and Ecological (Green) Emergency demands that we explore uncharted possibilities and collaborate like never before.

“The future depends on what we do in the present.” — Mahatma Gandhi

It is our duty to weave a story of resilience and hope, where innovation and unity help us overcome the challenges we face.

A Call for Realistic and Compassionate Leadership

Some groups seek power driven by unethical intentions cloaked in religion or authority. Their motives are clear: they oppose science and promote anti-intellectualism, hindering our fight against climate change.

Issues like birth control, women’s rights, and same-sex marriage become distractions that perpetuate unethical dominance. Controlling women’s bodies is absurd and unacceptable. Humanity has progressed beyond such archaic ideologies.

As elections approach, we need leaders grounded in reality, who care for all people regardless of religion or political affiliation. Seeking power to push religious control or other agendas leads to chaos. Leaders who deny climate science threaten our planet’s habitability.

We must elect officials who prioritize basic human needs—food, shelter, water, safety, and rest—as outlined in Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs. This focus is crucial in addressing the Climate and Ecological (Green) Emergency through Adaptive Resiliency. And is an desire that even climate deniers and anti-science people want and need.

Empowering Our Youth

Involving young adults and children in climate action is essential. They are acutely aware of the impending dangers and stand at the forefront of advocating for a sustainable future.

Survivors of climate disasters, young activists like Greta Thunberg, climate scientists, and leaders like António Guterres, Secretary-General of the United Nations, have been sounding the alarm for urgent action. Yet, some leaders respond with silence or indifference.

Seeing young children and mothers facing an uncertain future due to greed and the hunger for power is heartbreaking. It’s even more distressing when such agendas hide behind religious beliefs that ignore the impacts on our children’s future.

Our children deserve compassion and decisive climate action. We must declare a Climate Emergency and implement policies that protect their future. Control should not rest with fossil fuel companies or unethical corporations that prioritize profit over biodiversity.

With elections on the horizon, we must not wait to act. We can push current leaders to make necessary changes. There are other ways to assist and some of which include joining climate organizations like:

• Sunrise Movement
• Climate Hawks Vote
• Third Act
• The Climate Mobilization
• Sierra Club
• Extinction Rebellion
• Earth Guardians
• Mothers Out Front

Participate in marches and mobilizations to demand an end to fossil fuels. Information about upcoming events can be found at by using a simple Google, StarPage or Perplexity.AI search as I once did to locate EndFossilFuels.us.

Small Actions, Big Effects

Every little action we take can lead to significant change. By adjusting our daily routines, we can reduce our carbon footprint:

• Combine errands to minimize trips.
• Use public transportation or walk when possible.
• Explore resources and ideas available online, including at Climate Tribe, to make sustainable choices.

Encourage others to learn and become informed. Self-directed learning dismantles ignorance and promotes the election of ethical leaders who prioritize our planet’s future.

In times of crisis, help those who are vulnerable—the elderly, the disabled, and those on the front lines like emergency services, law enforcement, and firefighters. As we rebuild from disasters, let’s not wait for the next one to strike. Instead, let’s proactively prepare and strengthen our communities through Adaptive Resiliency.

A Pact for Our Children’s Tomorrow

We must safeguard our planet for our children’s sake. This means ensuring clean water and air, supporting ocean recovery, protecting oceanic ecosystems, and preserving biodiversity. We have the power to demand change from our leaders, the wealthy, and corporations engaged in unethical practices.

Exceeding 1.5 to 2.1 degrees Celsius of warming brings us into dangerous territory. The Earth’s climate system could become unstable, leading to uninhabitable conditions. Human activities like burning fossil fuels and deforestation have pushed us toward this critical point.

It’s crucial to declare a Climate Emergency and elect leaders who will act to prevent extinction-level outcomes. We need to shift our focus to Adaptive Resiliency and creative adaptation, moving beyond mere mitigation. This means preparing for sea-level rise, extreme weather, and other impacts, while innovating solutions to protect our future.

Our children deserve a world where sustainability and habitability are assured. The time to act is now. Let us harness the urgency of the Climate Emergency to transform our society and secure a livable planet for generations to come.
