If you convert one kilogram of mass into energy, you create 0.00009 zettajoules of energy. The world's largest nuclear bomb ever tested, the Tsar Bomba, released 0.00021 zettajoules of energy. The energy released by the explosion of Krakatoa was about 0.0008 zettajoules. (2/n)

The total amount of electrical energy used by humans in 2008 was 0.064 zettajoules. The total of *all* kinds of energy used by humans in 2010 was 0.5 zettajoules. The estimated energy in the world's oil reserves is about 8 zettajoules. (3/n)

The amount of energy in sunlight hitting the Earth each day is 15 zettajoules. The estimated energy in the world's coal reserves is about 24 zettajoules. The heat energy that's gone into the oceans from global warming since 2000 is about 200 zettajoules. (4/n, n = 4)

Putting it this way sounds like tapping into the fossil fuel energy reserve two hundred years ago was the energy equivalent of taking a loan with a very very high interest rate.

Yes, sort of like that! And now the loan is coming due.

To be fair that's roughly one thousandth of the energy the Earth received from the sun since 2000.

OK, but do this again using the SI Jelly Donut.

Well, in the new world we must reject classical approach to engineering thermodynamics as there will be no "heat sinks" with an infinite heat capacity. // This was a joke with a bit of a terrifying reality

Possibly stupid question: I'd assume that melting land ice would add to the total heat energy of the ocean simply by having heat energy and adding to the ocean. Do you know how much of the increase in total heat energy is due to warming versus increased mass?
