Not gonna lie... It scared me when they mentioned that we only have 2025-2031 to properly reduce emissions and save at least half of humanity.
Also, it was interesting how they mentioned the fossil fuel tactics that are similar to the cigarette industry on distorting data.

Is it true that we have so little time left?
The area is rabidly reactionary and hostile to the idea of climate change. There is a stark divide between the classes here, and the poor are incredibly uneducated, religious, and angry, and thus, easy for reactionary forces to manipulate.
Little to no change has been taken or is planned. This is made worse because of the major economic drivers in the area other then farming are natural gas fracking, coal mining, chemical manufacturing, and shale oil extraction. These industries control the local legislative bodies and they have sat on their hands.
Crop yields are lower, the summer months are near unlivable, as it is 35-42c from nearly late April to mid September. It used to be that we would get a maybe a few hot weeks (roughly 35c) in July and August at best, but it has gotten exponentially worse. This has exacerbated droughts, and farmers are forced to drain more and more groundwater. People are also forced to pump more AC in order to simply not die of heatstroke, as many of the houses have been built for decades to be highly insulated against the harsh and long winters that no longer exist.
Its gotten so bad that even a few of the far-right reactionaries have started mumbling about how "There isn't as much snow nowadays as when I was a kid". But I fear they will not wake up soon enough.
We are diving head-first into catastrophe.
Where is this?
You want me to dox myself? Really? Did you really just ask someone for identifiable information in an online forum?
Did you think that question through at all? Even if I told you the country, then the region, and precise area I’m talking about would be fairly easy to deduce. Last thing I need is literal identifying information linked to my account.
You want my age, profession, and eye colour too?
You did dox yourself, but it's not a real place. Here's all the info you gave:
Really the big clues are it's cold, anthracite coal, and a major port city. Cold places with anthracite are western Canada, north of Anchorage Alaska, and several places in Russia. Alaska doesn't feed millions of people, the single anthracite coal mine in Canada isn't near any rivers that flow to Canada's breadbasket. So that leaves Russia. They have four major coal ports: Murmansk, Ust-Luga, Vanino, and Vostochny. I'd wager your coal is going to one of those cities that you're 150km away from. Murmansk has no significant mountains and no coal nearby. There isn't a river that irrigates a breadbasket either. Same situation for Ust-Luga. Vanino has some mountains, the Amur river is kind of nearby, but there isn't a coal mining area nearby accessible by rail. Vostochny has mountains and coal mining, but no river. Maybe it's another Russian port? No, because nothing fits the criteria because it's all bullshit isn't it? How can you be 150km from a cold port yet there's a river that flows away from the sea that's fed by melting mountain snow that flows to a major breadbasket where they're mining quality coal? None of it makes sense. It's not real.
If it's not real, that would explain your over-the-top reaction to me asking where you're describing.
This is so comically wrong that it’s hilarious. You’re so deadset on your theories you’ve overlooked several massive options to an astounding degree.
Also over the top? You think asking a person on a forum who’s received death threats and been stalked by mentally ill posters for several months is overreacting when you ask them to tell you where they live?
