      Yes, that’s how it works. People will not move for ideas, they will move when their daily life becomes unbearable. Though they may not move in the direction you want, it seems far right is rising faster than far left.

        In Germany, we have a word for that: “Leidensdruck” and I think that’s beautiful.

    This is a nothing headline. Yes, they’re all going up and it ain’t great, but this will be happening for a while. Until we move off of fossil fuels, we can expect as such .

    The headline is like, “Global population is at an all time high”. No shit. It will again be tomorrow too.

    Methane is both stronger than co2 and has the shorter half-life. We COULD swap to plant based diets on a mass scale to eliminate a huge portion of that.

    It would also reduce land used for food farming (animals eat more than we get from eating them, and most are factory farmed and mass-produced fed monocrops to meet consumer demand), allowing us to rewild a lot of space.

    That is in our power. Completely in OUR power. But nope. Blame corporations exclusively, take no personal action, bacon tho.

    We’re going to suffer the effects of global warming, and it’s going to be everyone’s fault.
