Cultural pollution. We are losing the ability to agree and act, piece by piece.

I dislike misanthropy, so I don't think there's no hope left, but climate change shows us how we built claims of self-autonomy, equality and compassion on a foundation of fake-it-till-we-make-it, thus on a foundation that is, simply put, not up to the task of our times.

Thanks for the clarification! Very well explained!

What?? We’ve had many global warming warnings…. Globally!

As MAGA/ADL would say it is "pro hamas woke climate alarmists supporting DEI" that make Jewish Space Lazers cause all of this.

Theory is that if only white firefighters were hired more, 100mph winds would be trivial conditions to fight fires in.

BLM is a great example. I remember being so mad, and wanting something to change, and there was a huge, massive cultural shift for it. I remember thinking how if everyone would unify behind one thing, we wanted one systemic thing to change - demilitarization of the police as an example, we could probably have done it. Everyone chanting and demanding the same one thing. Then we move onto the next, and the next, and the next.

Instead we got a list of like, 24 things that random people collected from chat rooms and online forums that they demanded. There was no way anyone was going to see a list that large and just say "Yup okay we're on it". But people wouldn't budge, their thing was the most important, it was all or nothing - and so that's what we got. Nothing. We could have had some huge systemic change there and instead nothing happened.

Occupy, BLM, protests, they're all well and good but they depend on people unifying. This here, this is the thing we want. Make it a bill and push it through now. It won't encompass everything. It won't be perfect. But it's progress. Instead we just go back and forth, and they know all they have to do is wait out the outcry until people get bored and they move on, so we can keep the status quo.

You won't convince people if you use the term "warming" and then present them snow in Texas. Climate change is the right expression.

all these winds would be somehow scared of skin color!

surely not in my 2025 bingo card.

Eh, "Global Warming" is fine. Texas isn't the globe. I've come to believe the whole "If we explain it differently, maybe it'll convince them" approach is largely a waste of energy.

Climate change is a GOP/Oil industry invented term to sound less scary than global warming. It doesn't mean no snow ever again, or every square inch of planet is warmer than last year.

”Climate Crisis“ is a term that has been established in Germany. Pretty fitting and doesn't mess with people's expectations (I hope).

Excuse me, but as a resident of the planet Texas, you both are wrong in assuming we have the ability to comprehend anything we didn't hear come from our own assholes.

You fool! Texas is a Star System not a planet. Houston for example is a planet.

There's no discernable pattern until it affects me. And then it's a deep-state conspiracy.

I don't object to that term. With "climate change" we get the opinion "well climate has always been changing so drill baby drill won't make it stop changing".

[email protected]

Well, yeah. Hehe. The first image with a plow in the snow is very normal where I live. And there are millions living with this. It doesn't convey the meaning of snow where it doesn't normally snow, or bigger snowstorms when they happen, to people living where it snows regularly for a big chunk of the year, but I understand the spirit of the whole anyway.

[email protected]

Or places that normally get snow are getting less and less.
