temporarily sending the world past a deeply symbolic mark.

temporarily

cool-zone

I guess once the sun consumes the earth, then slowly cools and dies over 5 billion years from now it'll go back to pre-industrial levels.

It's over 60F today where I live. Should be in the teens. What the fuck what the fuck whatthefuck

[-] CommunistBear@hexbear.net 24 points 8 months ago

Yeah, my area is famous for it's winter and yet it's ~60F. Hard to be optimistic about the future when this is the present

Yea the planet is assuredly fucked. I just hope my cats and I are dead before the water wars.

The world has made some progress, with green technologies like renewables and electric vehicles booming in many parts of the world.

FUUUUUUUCK ELECTRIC CARS. Holy fuck i'm tired of people thinking they are the solution. The solution is a public transit system that takes you to where you want to go, not a personal car for every human.

Its the coldest month of the year, one of the coldest week,s and its 60 degrees here in the northern midwest.

At the current rate of emissions, the Paris goal of limiting warming to 1.5C as a long-term average - rather than a single year - could be crossed within the next decade.

The next sentence is like a punchline.

This would be a hugely symbolic milestone, but researchers say it wouldn't mark a cliff edge beyond which climate change will spin out of control.

A sexist joke

The doctor is talking to a patient.

"I've got some good news and some bad news. Which do you want to hear first?"

"Um... the bad news."

"Your cancer is only stage 3. You've probably got about five years to live."

"What's the good news?"

"It's not stage four! And did you see the hooters on my young sexy nurse?"

What we need is a team of hackers targetting the deniers and their social accounts. These are the accounts socials are promoting instead of the facts.. You damn sure some are bots and astroturf accounts too. Bringing these down will have some effect. As would targetting the websites and socials of big fossil and big banks.

Wonder when we'll see adventurism around this start to pop off.
