      NOAA will be dismantled first (or they will be forced to massage these numbers somehow)

      Toss a coin to ur witcher climate scientist employed in the public sector providing publically available datasets

      It’ll take longer that that and society won’t collapse without us experiencing some very painful death throes first. Gonna be a pretty wild ride. I feel bad for our children and their children most of all.

      If covid and Trump have taught me anything it’s that the majority of people aren’t willing to do a damned thing until they themselves are hurt in some way. Based on this and my experience with peoples’ unwillingness to admit they’re wrong, I’d say we’ll keep going until the majority of people tap-out from the heat.

      In other words, we’re just screwed.

      The important question is what you (yes, you, the person reading this) are going to do.

          They can buy a new environment for themselves, their friends, and their loved ones. So it’s all good. If we didn’t want to die drowning in our homes, we shouldn’t have all bought cars and drank from plastic straws. Nobody forced us to do those things.

    Climate change can’t be real cause it’s cold where I live right now >:(

    Seriously hate saying it, but might not be a bad idea to move away from coastal and arid areas if you’ll still be alive in 30 years. There are tons of projection maps out there that show what your area will look like in a couple of decades if we don’t make serious changes. Still have hope that things will be better by then, but better safe than sorry.
