[Intro]
Halt!
(What?)
You’ve gotta take that …
(With a grain of salt)
[Verse 1]
Intrusion
(Into your mind)
Intrusion
(Time to remind)
[Chorus]
Halt!
(What?)
You’ve gotta take that …
(With a grain of salt)
[Bridge]
’cause whether you like it or not
(That’s what you wrought)
That’s what you brought
(That’s what we’ve got)
[Instrumental, Saxophone Solo]
[Verse 2]
Are you thinking
(The land is sinking)
Meanwhile, the rising tide…
(Can we ride)
[Chorus]
Halt!
(What?)
You’ve gotta take that …
(With a grain of salt)
[Bridge]
’cause whether you like it or not
(That’s what you wrought)
That’s what you brought
(That’s what we’ve got)
It’s a saline situation
(Burst a sublime time)
It’s a humane violation
(Crime of all time)
[Outro]
What?
(Exalt)
You’ve gotta take that …
(With a grain of salt)
A salty attitude
(Lack of gratitude)
ABOUT THE SCIENCE: Florida: Freshwater on the Brink
Rising seas are pushing saltwater into South Florida’s drinking-water aquifers, including the Biscayne Aquifer. Less rainfall, reduced river flow, and heavy groundwater pumping all accelerate the intrusion.
Tampa just had to start buying 10 million gallons of water per day — something officials call “very rare,” especially this early in the year. Saltwater intrusion and declining flows are forcing emergency water measures far earlier than in past decades.
* Our probabilistic, ensemble-based climate model — which incorporates complex socio-economic and ecological feedback loops within a dynamic, nonlinear system — projects that global temperatures are becoming unsustainable this century. This far exceeds earlier estimates of a 4°C rise over the next thousand years, highlighting a dramatic acceleration in global warming. We are now entering a phase of compound, cascading collapse, where climate, ecological, and societal systems destabilize through interlinked, self-reinforcing feedback loops.
What Can I Do?
The single most important action you can take to help address the climate crisis is simple: stop burning fossil fuels. There are numerous actions you can take to contribute to saving the planet. Each person bears the responsibility to minimize pollution, discontinue the use of fossil fuels, reduce consumption, and foster a culture of love and care.
The Climate Crisis: Violent Rain | Deadly Humid Heat | Health Collapse | Extreme Weather Events | Insurance | Trees and Deforestation | Soil | Rising Sea Level | Food and Water | Updates
Tipping points and feedback loops drive the acceleration of climate change. When one tipping point is breached and triggers others, the cascading collapse is known as the Domino Effect.
