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:
How much each change to the atmosphere has warmed the world:
Recommended actions to cut greenhouse gas emissions in the near future:
Anti-science, inactivism, and unsupported conspiracy theories are not ok here.

Do you need a hug? You sound like you need a hug. Like maybe your parents didn't hug you enough or something.
Massive chud energy right there
As much as I think the person you're responding to is being a bit of a clown, don't tell them to go kill themselves.
I appreciate your sentiment. We should all strive to treat each other with compassion and respect, but unserious people get unserious treatment.
Imagine the peace of mind we would have if all of the people who think and act that way were suddenly un-alive though.
Wouldn't you also be considered that category since you also wish harm onto others?
No? That way of thinking of incredibly stupid, context is what decides if an action is justified or not. Violence is especially easy to justify, as far as unsavoury actions go.
Classic fucking conservative psychopath; "yeah lock a nonviolent offender up for life because she hurt my little feefees"
I love how mad this girl makes all the boomers and genx weirdos. It's so entertaining to me. All she has to do is exist, and the collective blood pressure of all the world's loosers rises.
What's a looser? Do you mean loser? Loser?
Was this supposed to be some kind of comeback lol?
Are you suggesting that in democratic countries that citizens should not have the right to free assembly? Or that active criticism of government or corporate powers should be banned?
Not only would this be a dangerous precedent that belies fascist ways of thinking, it also would then take away any legal right you likely believe the Jan. 6 insurrectionists had to free assembly. Of course in that case they were actively breaking the law by entering restricted areas, brandishing weapons, committing acts of violence... Unlike these dangerous climate protestors who were blocking a public street (clutches pearls).
It's absolutely bonkers. I met a 16 year old guy who is pretty sharp and politically active, he told me he wanted to run when he is of age to, he tried to play rope a dope with me about how the Jan 6 insurrection was a "protest" and how Trump had no culpability in fomenting the insurrection. I told him, in no uncertain terms, if you can't admit to the greatest modern threat to democracy then you should never run for political office.
All they're suggesting is that someone has told them that she is a threat to their world view for some reason and she needs to be imprisoned so they don't have to face their fragility or the consequences of their choices on the regular. This hurts the conservative.
And what exactly did she do to you? Hurt your feelings?
Careful you might trigger the snowflake‡ and they'll whine and argue in the comments for days to come about how they should be able to stomp on the rights of people they disagree with while simultaneously sucking off the nearest billionaire.
‡ I've recently started finding it insanely fun calling conservative folk "snowflakes" as it pisses them off to such an incredible degree
Unfortunately, I'm not sure if conservatives have the mental capacity to understand you're referring to them when you call them snowflakes.
that and talking about them being triggered …
