They are currently pretending it's an act of God/ nature and that it's laughable for man to be able to influence it. permalink fedilink source parent [–] FatVegan@leminal.space 4 points 3 weeks ago (1 child) You don't hace to be a mpuntaineer, i can see the glacier going away from my window. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] UltraMagnus@startrek.website 1 point 3 weeks ago Oh damn that's gotta suck.

Climate change deniers are either stupid, greedy, or both. permalink fedilink source parent [–] WolfLink@sh.itjust.works 1 point 3 weeks ago* My family would always go skiing in the nearby mountains every Christmas. We are starting to have the conversation of changing that plan, given how bad the snow has been the past two years, and predictions for the future are only getting worse. permalink fedilink source parent
