Giveth the charts, I think you mean "have reached and will reach record highs every few weeks for the foreseeable future"... I think it's time to focus less on the number and more on the slope. "The rate of increase of these things has reached a sustained record high for the last decade"

the Republicans have this solved already. they'll just kill all the research agencies so there cannot be any more reporting about how bad things are getting no reports, no problems. easy peasy.

(/s for them as ain't sure.)

"The summer of 2026 will go down in history books as the hottest, driest and most deadly set of heatwaves Britain has ever experienced. This weather isn’t normal – but it is predictable according to a global consensus of scientists. And yet this summer, according to the science, will be one of the coolest summers we ever have again. Things will only get hotter from here."

Everything that is supposed to resupply major food stocks, ocean blooms, etc, has failed this year. Suddenly, catastrophically failed. The clock hit midnight and we're still discussing whether we need to leave by 11 or 11:30.

Anything to distract from the EPSTEIN FILES. Just saying.

I'm not sure what you meant by that, but it comes across as "climate change is a distraction from Epstein files". I'm kinda hoping that's not what you meant, but it wouldn't be the craziest or the dumbest thing I've seen on the Internet.

The methane is going to increase a lot. Enough ice melted that the methane that was locked in has been starting to escape. It melts more ice as it releases which increases the rate of both the melting and the releasing of methane. We passed that point of no return like 5 years ago.

If you’d like to lose some sleep learn up on how the previous 7 extinction events occurred. We’re definitely headed that way. Bacteria will once again rule the earth

I was just thinking how it seems like we had more days up around 105f where I am than days we had up above 95f or so last year. Temps aren't just rising, they're skyrocketing.

I was a pessimist, so I saw the writing on the wall and had myself sterilized 20+ years ago. It feels nice to be validated, but I still feel pretty bad for the next generation inheriting this shitshow.

Yeah, but we're still gonna get blamed for ruining the economy when there aren't enough wage slaves to keep paying into our social securities when we finally get old enough to claim them. They'll just say, "Oops, no retirement for you, guess you should have had kids. The money you put in? No, that was for us!!!"

Anyone that tries to blame the failure of the economy on my generation will wake up in a guillotine.

Right? I still get asked, "Why don't you have kids" or "do you plan to have kids?!" and I always say the same thing: There is NO moral justification for bringing another conscious human being into this world who will have to deal with the disaster that we have on our hands. Until we have a guaranteed biosphere for the next 200+ years, no kids.

You can always tell who the person is that only listens to the radio for news. They’re talking about prophets! PROPHETS. The prophets are all high, so no one knows what to do. We rely on the prophets to give us direction! Yeesh, people, read a book!

It's like the Mormon song "Follow the Prophet." It's a subliminal message to its followers: "Follow the profit, follow the profit, follow the profit, don't go astray." Or their "Choose the Right" motto; it's fed to them like they're choosing between right and wrong, but the real message is to "Choose the Right" end of the political spectrum. Words can be tricky.

If you just stop taking measurements, there won't be a climate crisis! Anyway we can just get King Trump to use this magic sharpie and Republican Jesus powers to make it all go away.
