2024 first year to pass 1.5C global warming limit
By Mark Poynting, Erwan Rivault and Becky Dale
Global warming is nearing a critical point, as 2024
became the first calendar year with an average temperature
of 1.5°C above pre-industrial levels, according to The
European Copernicus Climate Service.
While it doesn’t mean the Paris Agreement target
of keeping the long-term average below 1.5°C has
been breached, it highlights how close we are to
exceeding it. The rise in global temperatures is primarily
caused by fossil fuel emissions, which continue to increase
despite international agreements.
Climate scientist Ella Gilbert emphasized
the devastating effects of global warming, pointing to
events like the Los Angeles wildfires and the floods in
Valencia. These disasters are a clear example of extreme
weather becoming more frequent and dangerous.
However, she stressed it was not too late to act.
Every reduction in emissions and degree of warming can
significantly decrease the impact of future disasters.
Action must come from governments, businesses, and
individuals alike.

"Renewable Energy: A Path Toward Sustainability"
The global push toward renewable energy technologies
represents a pivotal shift in addressing the multifaceted
challenges posed by climate change. As greenhouse
gas emissions continue to accelerate global warming,
policymakers, scientists, and industry leaders
emphasize the urgent need to transition from fossil
fuels to cleaner, more sustainable energy sources.
Among the most prominent renewable technologies are
solar, wind, and geothermal energy systems, each
offering unique advantages in reducing environmental
degradation and promoting energy security.
Solar energy, harnessed through photovoltaic cells and
thermal systems, has become increasingly accessible
due to technological advancements and declining
production costs. Wind energy, reliant on the kinetic
power of air currents, now constitutes a significant
portion of the energy mix in many nations, particularly
those with favorable geographical conditions.
Meanwhile, geothermal energy, derived from the
Earth’s internal heat, provides a consistent and reliable
energy source, particularly in regions with significant
tectonic activity.
However, the widespread adoption of renewable
energy technologies is not without its challenges. High
upfront costs, intermittent energy production, and the
need for extensive infrastructure development remain
significant barriers. Moreover, integrating these
technologies into existing power grids requires
coordinated efforts to modernize and enhance energy
storage solutions. Despite these obstacles, the global
community increasingly recognizes the imperative of
investing in renewables, as their benefits—ranging
from reduced carbon footprints to long-term economic
resilience—outweigh the initial difficulties.
In addition to addressing environmental concerns,
renewable energy adoption carries profound
implications for geopolitical dynamics and social equity.
Nations with abundant natural resources, such as sun
and wind, stand to gain significant economic and
strategic advantages. Simultaneously, prioritizing
renewable energy can contribute to reducing energy
poverty in developing regions, fostering inclusive
growth and sustainable development.

"Artificial Intelligence: A Double-Edged Sword"
In recent years, artificial intelligence (AI) has
transitioned from a futuristic concept to an integral part
of daily life. From virtual assistants and
recommendation algorithms to advanced robotics and
autonomous vehicles, AI has permeated various
sectors, promising unprecedented levels of efficiency
and innovation. Proponents argue that AI has the
potential to revolutionize healthcare by enabling faster
diagnoses, improve education through personalized
learning experiences, and address global challenges
such as climate change through predictive modeling.
However, the rapid integration of AI into society has not
been without controversy. Critics raise alarms over
ethical dilemmas stemming from its deployment.
Concerns include the displacement of millions of jobs
as automation replaces human labor, the erosion of
privacy due to pervasive surveillance technologies, and
the potential misuse of AI in creating deepfakes or
autonomous weapons. Moreover, there are fears that
AI systems, if left unchecked, could exacerbate existing
inequalities by embedding biases into algorithms or
concentrating power in the hands of a few corporations
and governments.
Adding to these challenges is the looming question of
control. Experts debate whether AI, in its pursuit of
optimizing tasks, could surpass human oversight and
act in ways that conflict with human values. This raises
the specter of existential risks, as advanced AI could
inadvertently or deliberately cause harm on a global
scale. While international organizations have begun
discussions on regulating AI development, a global
consensus remains elusive, leaving many unanswered
questions about the future of humanity in an AI-driven
world.

Read the text below to answer question
“To read these books, in this way, as an exercise in self-knowledge, carries certain risks. Risks that are both personal and political. Risks that every student of Political Philosophy has known. These risks spring from the fact that philosophy teaches us, and unsettles us, by confronting us with what we already know. There is an irony: the difficulty of this course consists in the fact that it teaches what you already know. It works by taking what we know from familiar unquestioned settings, and making it strange. [...] Philosophy estranges us from the familiar, not by supplying new information, but by inviting and provoking a new way of seeing.
But, and here is the risk, once the familiar turns strange, it is never quite the same again. Self-knowledge is like lost innocence; however unsettling you find it, it can never be 'unthought' or 'unknown'. What makes this enterprise difficult, but also riveting, is that Moral and Political Philosophy is a story, and you don't know where the story would lead, but you do know that the story is about You.”
Text taken from: “Justice: What's the Right Thing to Do?” Introduction Class ― Michael Sandel
The metaphor "Self-knowledge is like lost
innocence" implies that:
