Re: an even more frightening perspective
it actually IS tracking toward that polluted shithole of a state
Have we fallen into a mesmerized state that makes us accept as inevitable that which is inferior or detrimental, as though having lost the will or the vision to demand that which is good?

"Hurricane Otis has intensified by 80 mph in the past 12 hours (from 65 mph to 145 mph)," Colorado State University hurricane specialist Phil Klotzbach wrote on X (formerly Twitter) Tuesday evening when the storm intensified to a Category 4 hurricane. That's the fastest 12-hour intensification rate in the eastern North Pacific (to 180°) in the satellite era (since 1966), breaking the old record of 75 mph/12 hours set by Patricia in 2015."
seems to be a record-breaker on a number of fronts
that region of Mexico has never, in recorded history, seen a hurricane of this magnitude

Everything is fine. The next generation of sentient species will study and learn from us.

Wouldn’t wanna be sitting on the dock of the bay for that

All offset (and then some) by China’s ramping up of coal production and use.

the top 1% are responsible (whatever that means) for 16% of global CO2 emissions
coincidentally, the poorest 2/3 of humanity is also responsible for 16%

Re: an even more frightening perspective
there seems to be a growing consensus that a complete loss of the West Antarctic ice shelf is now inevitable by the end of the century
this loss alone would result in 3-4 meters of sea level rise…meters, not feet

I'm not worried, if you don't look at climate change, it isn't there.
Besides, I heard climate change is a "hoax", and only snowflake libs buy it.
