    The people that could have done something about this don’t care. We’re past that now. So there’s little point in sounding the alarms now. This train is unstoppable.

      Yeah at this point, there’s two types of people. Those who aren’t interested in climate change either because they don’t believe it will happen or believe we can stop it, and those who are absofuckinlutely terrified. I think I’d rather be blissfully ignorant.

        I’ll add that some of those that have the means of doing something are doing something.

        Another thing. People that don’t think climate change is real will learn the hard way when their livelihood get impacted by its consequences. Deniers can ignore reality, but it certainly won’t ignore them

        I’d rather be blissfully ignorant of a lot of things. Unfortunately, I don’t have the luxury of “forgetting” the awful shit I already know.

      yeah, no.

      Sound the fucking alarms. Scream from the rooftops. It’s going to keep getting worse until we stop it.

        Hate to break it to you, but…. it’s too late for that. And even if there a glimmer of hope left- “we” aren’t stopping shit.

        We don’t have the connections, the money, or the power to do a thing about it.

        Enjoy the show. It gets worse from here on out.

    Interesting that the global temperature peaks around the middle of the year when half the globe is in winter, wonder if it’s because of all the land they’ve got up north?
