global warning
The meme is technically correct then.
What?? We’ve had many global warming warnings…. Globally!
Nah I think we’ve had the warnings and the is the “find out” part
Well at least they’re consistent.

the picture on the bottom right is from a water park for cars, it is NOT global warning
Top right looks like my bedroom. Also, not global working.
As MAGA/ADL would say it is “pro hamas woke climate alarmists supporting DEI” that make Jewish Space Lazers cause all of this.
You won’t convince people if you use the term “warming” and then present them snow in Texas. Climate change is the right expression.
Eh, “Global Warming” is fine. Texas isn’t the globe. I’ve come to believe the whole “If we explain it differently, maybe it’ll convince them” approach is largely a waste of energy.
Excuse me, but as a resident of the planet Texas, you both are wrong in assuming we have the ability to comprehend anything we didn’t hear come from our own assholes.
You fool! Texas is a Star System not a planet. Houston for example is a planet.
It’s right there on the flag!
The Guardian now uses “climate crisis”.
Climate change is a GOP/Oil industry invented term to sound less scary than global warming. It doesn’t mean no snow ever again, or every square inch of planet is warmer than last year.
”Climate Crisis“ is a term that has been established in Germany. Pretty fitting and doesn’t mess with people’s expectations (I hope).
I don’t object to that term. With “climate change” we get the opinion “well climate has always been changing so drill baby drill won’t make it stop changing”.
Warning*
You forgot the smelt.
I liked yesterday’s picture of the Titanic nosing deeply into the water and somebody up on the stern end saying if we’re supposedly “sinking” how are we up so high? Classic denialist mentality. Unfortunately also typical of the meme-level thinking people do on most issues now.
Oh, I need that pic.
They voted trump back in to the white house, there’s no hope for them.
As an American trapped inside with these proudly ignorant fuckwits, can confirm.
Good luck when climate change makes us desperate though. There’s literally only one thing we are genuinely very, very good at, to my shame; mass production of the means of mass murder. It’s pathetic how many of my fellow Americans take a perverse pride in this.
I genuinely fear for the rest of the world when the water wars start. We’re idiocracy with a cartoonishly big stick we’re absolutely dumb and petty enough to use.
Once we smash enough stuff the stick will start smashing us too, don’t worry.
By a much bigger margin than the first time. After seeing what he did the first time. Triple wham.
Well, you know… you can’t attribute any one event with certainty.
Only 9 of the last 10 apocalypses were caused by global warming, and we can’t really tell you which ones…
This isn’t global warming this is just …
God, can we please get an intermission?
Agent Smith (the Wachowskis) had us dead to rights.
We are a macro cancer of the natural world. You can point to our supposed good works, but from the perspective of most surface life, well… the surface life we haven’t yet exterminated in the name of glorious economic metastasis, we are a fucking plague.
Metastatic tumors refuse to stop too. It’s in their nature.
I find consolation in knowing we aren’t the first macro cancer Earth has survived, see the trees of the carboniferous period, and life will survive our species’ very loud, eager murder suicide.
We really did peak in 1999. Too bad that was the year I was born…

Did we change the term to “global warning”?
That was a previous term for climate change.
No, the term was “global warming”
Didn’t notice until you pointed it out
There’s a lot of shame being an American these days…
But, like, at least we can spell.
Color is not a valid spelling
If you speak English everything you spell is objectively wrong to its phonetically correct counterparts you are just following culture rather than being ‘correct’
If you wish to be correct develop a method of writing that uses English’s fuck load of hidden vowels and consonants to have a 60 letter long alphabet which is also phonetically correct!
Americans are actually a bit closer than the rest of us, e.g. erbs is the original pronounciation of herbs with the H being picked up in the UK initially by the upper classes and eventually everyone else, literally just because it sounded more grandiose, though the root latin word does include an h. (the presence of an H in english has been intermittent)
Aluminum is also closer to the intended pronounciation at least by the guy who came up with the first decent process for refining it.
Spelling is a shitty matrix to judge intelligence. It’s just copy and paste to convey thought. To me the thoughts that are supported are more beneficial to the species.
Yeh but word origins are fascinating anyway.
The great thing about the palisades fires, they increased police presence and cut fire fighters so you know there was 0 homeless presence. Only rich bastards that can either afford it, or deserve it.
But it’s cold where I live! /s
Well, yeah. Hehe. The first image with a plow in the snow is very normal where I live. And there are millions living with this. It doesn’t convey the meaning of snow where it doesn’t normally snow, or bigger snowstorms when they happen, to people living where it snows regularly for a big chunk of the year, but I understand the spirit of the whole anyway.
Or places that normally get snow are getting less and less.
most recent interesting news i heard was it being attributed to some fancy “DEI” term.
if anybody can give more clarity on what the fancy term is and how, if even, remotely it is to said disasters, i’d appreciate it a lot.
DEI is diversity, equity and inclusion. They are basically saying that the fires are so bad because they hired a bunch of women, black and gay people. If they had only hired MEN ™ to the fire departements, they would have it under control by now!
Thanks for the clarification! Very well explained!
Theory is that if only white firefighters were hired more, 100mph winds would be trivial conditions to fight fires in.
all these winds would be somehow scared of skin color!
surely not in my 2025 bingo card.
I’m white and I ain’t scared of no wind. Now them black fellas over there, I dunno bout them.
I believe the fancy “DEI term” is the N word, unfortunately.
They are saying that the fire department, city, and state leaders were focused more on diversity than on the responsibilities entrusted to them to prevent fires, and ensure adequate water supply in case of a major fire. Someone also said that their intentional exclusion of white men from firefighter candidacy pools led to their lack of manpower to effectively fight the fire.
I seriously thought they were talking about giving out a global warning or something and scrolled by confused, scrolling Lemmy again and seeing it once more I realized they were talking global warming
You’ve been warmed about this warning
Deregulated weather
Privatize the weather!
