“And I think the part of it that is generational is that millennials and people, in Gen Z, and all these folks that come after us are looking up and we’re like, the world is gonna end in 12 years if we don’t address climate change.
LMFAO @ 12 years

Bless her heart. And her other things.

bro, this is not something to laugh about. she's not saying that the world blows up in 12 years. its that we are really, really close to a tipping point after which we are totally fucked

a report in November 2021 referred to 11 years, so laughing at "12 years" is dangerous, especially since we are down to nearly 10 at this point

I'm all for being kind to Mother Earth.
Give a Hoot. Don't Polute.

But I'm not buying into the whole "it's gonna be so hot the earth is going to erupt in a ball of fire" any more than I bought into the whole "the earth is gonna get so cold everything is going to freeze over" from the 80s or whenever that was.

It is largely fear porn when they talk about "12 years". And it's such a ridiculous statement it actually causes me to dismiss the entire movement.

you think that 99.9% of scientists are all in on the fear porn agenda?

that honestly makes sense to you?

Give up, Dorothy.
The scientific consensus of people who devote their careers to studying the issue is meaningless now.
Warnings about inevitable bad consequences to come down the road are stupid and we're sheep

The 99.9 consensus is that the average temp will go up .5 to 1.5 degrees by the end of the decade. Not the doom and gloom apocalypse stuff. They give a whole myriad of predictions from best to worst case scenario. Have you read the ioc consensus? The fear porn is taking the worst case scenario and then using it to push your preferred $$$ agenda.

Uncomfortably, recklessly close:
"If the world temperature rises by two degrees, mountain glaciers and rivers will start to disappear and mountainous regions will see more landslides, as the permafrost that held them together melts away. By 2100, sea levels could rise by a metre, displacing 10% of the world's population."

Maybe if the scientists got something right for once I'd put a little more of my faith in them.

I honestly don't know much about Climate Change, keeping track hurts my head.

I do know that whatever Project Veritas report, it's legit. These dudes never lost a lawsuit, more than 10 years in, going strong.

Man-made climate* change questionaire: (for self-use only)

the earth is warming and carbon dioxide levels are rising

(1) do you agree that the earth is warming and CO2 levels are rising?

97% of scientists believe that the cause is human activity, primarily the burning of fossil fuels

(2) if yes to #1, what is the cause of the change?

* the term "climate" is different than the term "weather"
