No shit. I'm not trying to be a dick, but, like, we all see this.
Except for the fuckwits who deny it is real!
No no, they've now moved on to, "well fine, it's real, but it's too late and/or too expensive to do anything now".
The US president and the GOP literally claim it’s a Chinese or democrat hoax. I don’t know what they believe in their heart, but their rhetoric is all denial.
So much so that Republicans are at this stage already:
We'll get to "that's not my fault" sooner than you think.
I'm always reminded of the scene in The newsroom, where they have the guy from the epa who essentially says it's already too late to save us from climate oblivion. They wanted him to calm the message and played down the doom.
That was from 2012.
Nothing has changed at all. Humans are rubbish at dealing with problems that are more than a year or so down the road.
Yep! I thought something similar.
The Paris Accords were a decade ago. Anyone who is paying attention at all shouldn’t be surprised.
Don't worry I'm sure it will fix itself if we continue to do absolutely nothing!
Yeah except we're also taking most other species with us
Eh, the anthropocene extinction event will be like the sixth big one, something periodically wiping out a ton of species and life restructuring itself is kinda just natural at this point. As the saying goes, life will find a way. It'll look different, but just like the previous five times, it'll do just fine.
