If we destroy enough satellites, it'll all go away. Believe me!

Yeah, this battle is, unfortunately, lost. It is now too late to stop what is coming. Keep in mind that the effects we're witnessing are from emissions 10-20 years ago, and the global total continues to rise and will likely continue for the foreseeable future. If you haven't yet, don't procreate. If you have already, don't continue to.

The rich and powerful want us to give up. Mitigation is still possible.

The propaganda has gone from:

"It doesn't exist"

to

"Okay, it does exist, but it isn't caused by humans."

to

"Okay, it is caused by humans, but it's too late to do anything about it now!"

Each one of those has been a lie that serves those in power. Don't buy it.

I live in SW france, +40°C today, 3 months with barely a drop of rain. It's pretty obvious this region is going to look like Extremadura in a decade or 3.

The problem is that ordinary people can only do so much to prevent climate change, any real impact can only come from above, by goverment regulations and the ultra rich following those regulations and doing their part, unfortunately the filthy rich control the government and they would rather take 16 min flights in their private jets, the planet be damned

If it's not heat waves, it's several days of hard rain, dirty water swirling round your hips, and the constant threat of leptospirosis or rat shit disease.

Get some native tree seedings and start planting then in your urban environment where you can

I need F to understand these images.

I think the 1% get it, they simply don’t care. It’s too hard, so, they’ll drink up as much money as they can from the rest of us to invest in bunkers from which they will watch the rest of the world burn.

The way that Capitalism is set up, is that if you care about anything long-term whatsoever - even long-term profits - you'll still be put out of business by the psychopath who is laser-focused on the next quarterly earnings announcement.

A lot of species extinctions happened because natural selection took them down a blind alley and left them there to get pulped.

Might as well live in the moment then

I moved further north in Japan from Tokyo. I think we hit 38 as a max last year. So far, I've seen 35 this year, but I'm afraid where we might end up. We had weeks without rain at my place finally ending a few days ago. I'm scared.

I got a ''low air quality'' alert on my phone. I live in the middle of nowhere. But I can't see the mountains from all the ash in the sky. This is no longer novel to me.
