Climate - truthful information about climate, related activism and politics.

I had no idea this was possible, a tipping point I never imagined. Sounds like many scientists were as ignorant as I, assuming the planet would cycle as much CO2 as ever. And now even that foot-brake is slowing?!

Fuck it. I can only do what I can do. Seen the ecosystem collapse in my region over the last 20-years, seen it collapse on my front porch in the last 4. Always shocking to me that no one is noticing the collapse in our insect populations, and amphibians, and reptiles, and fish, and mammals, and... Young people have no idea how fecund our environment was, even in cities.

I see less life in the woods than I did in my suburban hood in the 80s. And it was all the more lively in my parent's time. Ran into some rednecks 4-wheeling down to the creek the other day. Old lady seemed shocked I was swimming in it. "Hell naw I ain't goin' in there!" Well, lady, not many snakes or anything else. I was thrilled to see 5 fish, and only 1 was mature. And of all my trips there, that was the first time I'd seen more than 1 fish! (other than minnows)

We first-world people are so disconnected from the mythical "outdoors" that we think all is well as long as gasoline costs $X and eggs cost $Y.

Its absolutely insane to me that 118 countries tries to rely on the thing we are destroying to save it. I know the carbon sinks are just there doing their thing. But that just doesnt seem like solid logic in a fragile system. You need to place the excess carbon elsewhere.

We're doomed lol.

Smoke 'em if ya gottem.

It makes me wonder, just what are the rich old geezer and young rich hustlers going to do when the planet becomes uninhabitable due to this? Go to space? There's no where to go and our technology is only good enough to get to the Moon and Mars. But there's no where to really live that's like Earth and the exoplanets we discovered, are beyond our reach.

So I am under the belief that these climate destroying rich people, just want to ruin things at the expense and survival of others.

Who cares.

Oil money go brrrrrrrr
