i feel like the fascism problem needs to be fixed before anyone can even begin to approach the climate problem
they've been talking about these tipping points for decades and it's clearly gotten worse instead of better. it's good that this information is there, but at this point it's like trying to breach a hardened fortress by throwing marshmallows at it
Unfortunately, we're stuck with having to both beat fascism and solve major social and environmental issues at once. Fortunately, solving each of those makes solving the others easier.
I agree with you. I'm a middle aged fart and I have heard of the upcoming tipping point too many times since the 90's. Still waiting on it.

Maybe the collapse of the current form of civilization is inevitable. There's even people who believe it should be accelerated. Me? I don't know what to think. I know the solutions. I've known them for a long time. It's the people I don't know what to do about. The complacency, the apathy, the ignorance and arrogance...
What I do know is life is miserable without hope.

How much each change to the atmosphere has warmed the world:
Recommended actions to cut greenhouse gas emissions in the near future:
Anti-science, inactivism, and unsupported conspiracy theories are not ok here.
