Haha, all it takes for us to completely abandon even the ineffective token climate gestures is slightly more expensive energy prices and a minor war on the other side of the world

The summer has only gotten started and Alaska is already breaking records in wildfire.

quote:

Officials on Friday put the communities of St. Mary's and Pitkas Point into "ready" status, meaning residents should gather important items they would want to have with them if they have to evacuate, said U.S. Bureau of Land Management Alaska Fire Service spokesperson Beth Ipsen by text. That would be followed by "set," or getting a go-bag ready and leaving if the "go" order is given.

The fire is consuming dry grass, alder and willow bushes on the largely treeless tundra as gusts of up to 30 mph (48.28 kph) are pushing the fire in the general direction of St. Mary's and Pitkas Point, Yup'ik subsistence communities with a combined population of about 700 people and about 10 miles (16 kilometers) apart.

[...]

He said based on records from the Alaska Fire Service dating back to the 1940s, this is the largest documented wildfire in the lower Yukon River valley. There are much bigger fires recorded just 50 or 60 miles (97 kilometers) north of St. Mary's, but those burned in boreal forests.

[...]

The area where the tundra fire is burning, the Yukon-Kuskokwim Delta, lost its snowpack early this year, leaving grass and other vegetation longer to dry out. Coupled with the warmest period on record in the region recently, it provided for the perfect storm for this fire that was started by lightning on May 31.

For the period covering the last week of May and the first week of June, Bethel had its warmest temperatures on record this year, 9 degrees F (12.78 degrees C) above its normal 48 degrees F (8.89 degrees C), Thoman said.

There never was, and still isn't, any real political will to do anything serious about it. The nature of capitalism makes it impossible for most politicians, who serve capital, to act in any way that would hurt their masters.

Climate change is going to lead to WW3 tho, when India and Pakistan become too hot for people to live there, so maybe that will lead to the end of capitalism. :shrug:

A world like this has no winners, but can you minimize the hardship your regions face? This fast paced educational board game is for 2-4 players or teams, and plays in 30 minutes.

someone is mad about being called out on their climate video

having watched that video, it really is wild just how quickly pointing out "this person is giving you a grant because you are saying things that he likes" gets people to lump you in with conspiracy theorists. It's not even that out-there of an idea. Would Bill Gates give you a grant if you were promoting anti-vax propaganda? Would he give you a grant if you were proposing that governments seize all of the means of production and mobilize the economy to fight climate change? I think people like the one responding for that channel think that they are apolitical actors promoting science and reason, not people who are promoting an ideology that can be acted on. Sure that ideology is centrist status-quo, but it is an ideology nonetheless.

I really wish that Kurgz could express why they thought that Gates sponsored the channel to begin with. What is it that Gates found worthy of promoting in that channel that warranted a grant? Because that's why Gates gave the channel a grant. He wasn't looking to make money off of the channel, if he were then he would have invested in the channel in exchange for ownership.

But because the owner of Kurgz can't accept that he is a person whose ideology impacts the way that he runs the channel, that he is not an apolitical entity who is saying the unbiased truth, it's a question that he will probably never be able to answer

lol, lmao.
