There's a lot of :razz: types, even and especially in this subforum, who will constantly go, no, no, no the problem is at the very top! but you look at the replies to something like that tweet and you instantly know the rot goes deep down to the loving bone. Remove the parasites at the top, doesn't matter, there's millions of the absolute worst piggies on the planet clamoring and screeching for their turn to step up and replace the freaks and continue on doing the exact same thing.

It's so depressing to watch. I've seen a number of posts circulating on social media that are like "hey consider bumping up your normal AC temperature by a degree or two this summer" and you'd think people have been handed a gun and asked to pick one of their children to murder. It's all gonna go to poo poo sooner or later, global industrial capitalism is unsustainable as gently caress

I like how they elected Greta Thunberg as the Climate Change science expert

Every social issue has one, maybe two figureheads and if I don't like the figureheads that means the issue they care about isn't real. Al Gore and Greta Thunberg are bad so climate change isn't real in much the same way that Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton are bad so that means racism isn't real

Interstellar was a crappy movie that still has one of the best depictions of what a slow collapse is probably going to look like for rich western countries. Food is going to end up being a much bigger issue much sooner than a lot of people expect.

Went back home for the 4th to suburban PA on the boarder of rural PA. My sister commented that the corn seemed like it wasn't coming in as well as it used to, and my parents agreed. Seems like it gets a little worse every year, in fact.

Realistically for someone who hasn’t been paying enough attention to climate science, this all looks bad.

I know we are past several inflection pointd but how much longer can they pretending nothing is happening before our sense of normalcy is challenged and poo poo really hits the fan?

People at large are already aware. Even in denialist circles the rhetoric has changed from "climate change isn't real" to "the Earth goes through natural cycles" to "those dastardly Chinese are doing it". Just comment on how it's weirdly warm for October and you'll get a kind of defeated "heh" from most people--they know something is wrong, they just haven't embraced the scope of it.

Unlike something like Don't Look Up's comet, there will never be a point where we collectively see the problem with our own eyes for the first time. Instead we'll have scattered portions of the population realize how bad things are at scattered times, and maybe eventually one of those will serve as the tipping point, but more likely we're gonna keep seeing stuff like Greece or Pakistan flooding and it's gonna start getting closer and closer to home (no matter where "home" is for you) and nothing will ever be done until the worst has already come to pass.

Of course even in Don't Look Up seeing the comet with the naked eye wasn't enough, so, y'know, lol lmao

Six sigma over a data set of 30 data points is effectively meaningless, for whatever that's worth. We're all still gonna die tho
