At this rate, we might not even make it to the water wars.
So, with his leadership, is there any chance we won’t have a global climate crisis before 2061?
I need someone to convince me, please.
Why wait this long?
many places will be uncomfortable if not intolerable by 2050—around the lifespan of most mortgages—we need to start planning where we make our homes now https://time.com/6209432/climate-change-where-we-will-live/

State of affairs: Global climate disaster inevitable if emissions aren’t drastically reduced by 2035, U.N. warns
In 2061, I can see Halley’s Comet with my naked eyes for the second time. It’s the only thing I consistently look forward to anymore. I don’t have descendants or a partner, and my best days are clearly behind me.
kill?
Trump plans on addressing climate concerns. He’s already going to put RFK Jr in charge of health and he’s going to ban vaccines. Reducing the population will help lower emissions.
This is generally not a great way to do it, since the emissions largely coming from fossil fuel burning. Fewer people doesn’t help much if we burn even more.
I’ve accepted for a while now that “this is it”. Despite all our meming about our retirement being dying in the coming water wars… reality won’t be that far off.
As someone who always struggled to find reasons to live, I sure as hell can’t see any now. This world is a literal hell unless you’re rich. In that case it’s your little playground and we the npc’s who populate it.
I think I’d much rather save myself the trouble and suffering.
Don’t leave us you bastard. We are gonna see this through to the end.
Does anyone care about the climate at this point?
When I can afford it in the next few years, I plan on doing solar on the house. I drive as infrequently as possible and prefer my motorbike over my car (though my car is also only 660cc engine). I grow some of my own food and plan to steadily increase that as I learn and get better at farming. I try to buy local and regional where possible. I’ve stopped buying beef at home and it is now a special occasion food a handful of times a year.
I’m just one dude and ultimately make little difference, but I do care.
We are keeping our carbon cap and trade system here in Washington at least. We will be helping world CO2 emissions go down 0.3% (~100 million tons out of the 35 billion tons).
Feels like I’m the only one to be honest.
I care, but… I’m pretty exhausted at this point.
No, there’s dozens of us. Dozens!
I counted 8, i think you’re rigging the polls/s
No, no, that’s lemmy users. /s
Most Americans deny climate change, so
What the fuck happened to the education system
It was deliberately hampered to produce poorly educated people who are easier to swindle.
It’s just a once in a lifetime flood, bro! Sure, it’s the third one this year, but c’mon! It’s just normal seasonal cycles!

Won’t anybody rid us of this meddlesome president?
Do you prefer Vance?
I’m not convinced he’s clever enough to control the inevitable infighting that would spring up after Trump.
Thiel is. This is round two for Trump and his handlers have a better plan for dealing within. Hell, they’ve probably already agreed on what to do when he dies in office. He’s way too old and in poor health for them not to have that plan already planned out.
