“lolol see?! They don’t even know! They’re making things up to scare us!”
- actual brainwashed moron
I wonder which outgroup the deniers will blame when the effects of anthropogenic climate change are unavoidably obvious. Probably the climate scientists themselves: “you never told us it would be this bad”.
This is honestly one of the scariest headlines I have ever read.
I think it is cowardly to place the timeframe this could happen in as decades though. Climate change is accelerating, emissions are increasing and global carbon sinks are transitiong to being sources of greenhouse gas emissions.
This could happen tomorrow. We could easily be crossing tie tipping point as we speak, there is no sensationalizing this, it will be catastrophic.
This new years I’ll be going around congratulating people on a Happy Collapse of North Atlantic Current year.
This is honestly one of the scariest headlines I have ever read.
I don’t think that humans facing the consequences of their actions is scary. It’s just what happens. The sad part is it will generally be the descendants of those who acted most harmfully that will experience the consequences.
War, famine and lawlessness scare me
Those things already happen, just (presumably) not to you.
Fuck off with the fatalist trolling.
No, it will be us too and if you aren’t scared by that you are a fool.
Yes, I am going to die. That will always be true, regardless of what humans are doing.
It seems like a waste of time for me to be scared of the inevitable.
Be whatever emotion will help you through the coming suffering, but remember deciding not to care is a failstate of your world view, not an indicator your world view is a healthy and rational one.
Yes, I am going to die, no matter how you try to imply I am not ‘rational’ because I know the truth.
