Discussion of climate, how it is changing, activism around that, the politics, and the energy systems change we need in order to stabilize things.

As a starting point, the burning of fossil fuels, and to a lesser extent deforestation and release of methane are responsible for the warming in recent decades: Graph of temperature as observed with significant warming, and simulated without added greenhouse gases and other anthropogentic changes, which shows no significant warming

How much each change to the atmosphere has warmed the world: IPCC AR6 Figure 2 - Thee bar charts: first chart: how much each gas has warmed the world. About 1C of total warming. Second chart: about 1.5C of total warming from well-mixed greenhouse gases, offset by 0.4C of cooling from aerosols and negligible influence from changes to solar output, volcanoes, and internal variability. Third chart: about 1.25C of warming from CO2, 0.5C from methane, and a bunch more in small quantities from other gases. About 0.5C of cooling with large error bars from SO2.

Recommended actions to cut greenhouse gas emissions in the near future:

Anti-science, inactivism, and unsupported conspiracy theories are not ok here.

Sure, go on claiming stuff while shifting the burden of "homework" on others instead of proving your claims as that sounds like a perfectly scientific approach, lol..
You may be able to fool others with your argument from authority ("science says..."), but please allow me once more to ask you for specific links to your claims.
If you can't/won't provide them I fear it's more like you are the one going silent or burying your head in the sand.
So what's it gonna be?

Stop performimg for an audience, there's no one else here mate. At this point, if you really cared you could have easily found the evidence for what I'm saying. Even in my profile, like I said.

You're a damn fool and I'm not wasting more time. Keep screaming to the void and performing for your audience, I'm ignoring you.

Well, I'm not screaming, but you're pretty much a void.
If you cared, you could've provided one name or link.
Yeah, I'm gonna ignore you too, because you have nothing to offer but ramblings.
