Hello, Homo sapiens. You've proven your ability to adapt to anything other species can throw at you. You're quickly rising to the top of the food chain... on an evolutionary timescale, of course. They say that evolution is the survival of the fittest, so you must really want to survive. Now I want to play a game, where we'll find out just how much you want to live, when what you need to adapt to... is coming from your own species.

The mass of the ocean is at minimum several orders of magnitude greater than the mass of the atmosphere, wtf

is that methane bubble popping the cause for the 2025 extinction prediction, or is that something new? how would an extinction event like that look like in 3 years? everyone just peacefully drifting off to sleep?

before the settlers came, the herds of arfjason posts were hundreds strong. they would blanket entire pages and the cringe was strong enough to block out the light of sun. now there are just a few survivors hanging on in zoos and cringe preserves

it used to be that the cringe posts would jump into the thread by the hundreds without us even having to try now we have large dead zones with no cringe posts at all and have to work for weeks to get even a single one

Xaris posted:i gotta say it's pretty amazing that we've had a historic biblical flood affecting like 30 million people and it barely makes a blip in the west. if i didnt read cspam i wouldnt even know it happened yeah, it's like that post in the op quote:The news is full of stories of weather destroying other parts of the world like Mozambique and Puerto Rico, and conflicts breaking out in areas hit by drought, famine, and disease. It's also full of stories about migrants trying to come to the developed world. It never mentions that the two things are connected, and never explores the fact that the migrants are moving because they can no longer live in their homes and even it manages to be kinda overly optimistic about reporting and such anyway the real 'fun' of biosphere collapse was always going to be the migration part. the developed world responds so well to that.

biceps crimes posted:I thought Canada was supposed to be a climate change winner??? the general rule everyone acts on in claiming poo poo like that is that being closer to the poles means you'll be cooler so the tropical belt expanding and roasting the southern united states means that when the northern latitudes are roasted they'll be comparatively cooler and more mild these places still exist on this planet though so Canada is now experiencing weather that in the past was restricted to warmer, lower latitudes Canada is still hosed just in less ways than Phoenix or Florida. "Climate Proof Duluth" still has to eat food grown elsewhere. There aren't winners there are just worse stages of losers. Rectal Death Adept has issued a correction as of 16:01 on Sep 24, 2022 |

I think a lot of people are accustomed to the idea that anything that doesn't receive 24/7 news coverage isn't a big deal.
