Every year for over a decade has been the hottest on record. And that’s not going to change till our societies change
Only problem? If everything stopped today, we’d see increases in temps for 20 more years.
thats why its urgent.
The article says that 2016 was the previous hottest year on record, so I am not sure what you mean by your first sentence. I do agree with your second sentence though.
Am I the only one reading the headline as blaming climate change on climate change?
and sadly nobody gives a shit. To further demonstrate the level of idiocy I give you the quote of one of the chancellor candiates in germany after a century flood:
You don’t change policy just because now we have a day like this
And because of this we do not change enough, fast enough, because there are still idiots in charge who think we can relax and have still a lot of time or deny it completely…
Having a century flood once a century is no cause for change. Having them every few years… well the idiots will just bitch about the infrastructure needing improvement (but don’t you dare raise their taxes for that).
Yeah we know. We, collective, just don’t have even a fraction of the money necessary to stop the rich assholes who are responsible for the overwhelming majority of it.
The cons should just blame this on Taylor Swift as well.
