It’s cool that, as we’re nearing our end, we’re at least learning more about the beginnings. Sort of has a poetic beauty to it.

Our system will adopt them!

Cody basically says it’s just a video on climate change (which people are reluctant to watch) but to grab their attention, it’s ACTUALLY a video TO Jordan - an idiot’s idea of a smart person - about climate change.

I really like how he explains stuff. Looking forward to part 2.

It will be all of these and more, and it will continue to work to kill us slowly. Not a single event, but thousands over years, it has already begun and we’re only accelerating it.

Some of us will survive to see the later parts of this century, but it will be a different world than pre-2000.

Heat has already been a killer.

Floods and hurricanes have already wreaked havok.

Water scarcity has caused deaths.

Ecosystems ravaged by humans are past their first stages of collapse.

And it’s all getting worse.

We can try our best, but it won’t be enough.

I just hope to care for those around me and try to spread good.

To help a starfish.

I feel two ways about click bait and am open to having my mind changed.

1. Frustrating the info isn’t readily available because news should be free for the people, easy to access, and factual.
2. Good journalism should be supported and takes effort, time, and money.

I’ve seen the term tankie thrown around a lot recently. Can you please define it? I’m not quite sure I understand.

Yep, and cooking is easier and safer (I don’t need to worry about cross contamination)

Being vegan is way cheaper and that’s not even accounting for the massive subsidies the meat and dairy industries get, from our taxes.

I was vegetarian when I worked there, very grateful as I probably would be dead of solid arteries after 3 weeks. I like that Ikea has vegan dogs, wish Costco had something similar.

Which post?

At March 12th of this year, we’ll likely hit 366 days, an entire (leap) year of record breaking temperatures.

They’ll have to pay for the ammo themselves, of course.

Another millennial adding on:

5. Bringing a sentient life into a world of suffering and climate change that will only worsen seems malicious to that life, at this point.
6. My partner really doesn’t want to go through the body changes that come with pregnancy.

Additional emphasis on #3, even if it didn’t compromise safety, a healthy pregnancy is expensive! Healthcare from any complications is financially devastating.

Small aside that adoption is not off the table for us, but we’re not financially comfortable to get a dog yet, which we’ve been saving for for a few years. One of us would need to get a huge raise to be able to afford the costs of adoption and raising of a human child.

I’ve been really happy with open garage https://opensprinkler.com/product/opengarage/

Connects via wifi, easy to set up, and I haven’t touched it since. Doesn’t require cloud!

I volunteer!

Than it was.

Not just nostalgia tinted glasses, it really was better in the earlier years.

Also humans are fishing a lot of their food…

Sounds great and looks beautiful! Great plating, err bowling!

I sent the article through Google Bard to summarize:

Antarctica just hit a record low in sea ice, with the annual maximum coverage being 398,000 square miles lower than the previous record low set in 1986. Scientists are concerned that this may be the beginning of a long-term trend of decline for Antarctic sea ice, since oceans are warming globally. Sea ice around the polar regions plays a critical part in protecting the adjacent ice sheets. Less sea ice means less sunlight will be reflected back to space, causing waters to warm more and destabilize surrounding ice and glaciers. Coastlines are also much more exposed with less sea ice, removing a buffer that could help protect melting ice shelves or ice sheets. Scientists have long seen these downward sea ice declines and effects in the Arctic, and now they think Antarctica is hitting a turning point much like the Arctic has. In just seven years, Antarctica has experienced three new record-breaking low sea ice summers. Antarctica has been showing responses to climate change in other ways as well. Antarctica and the Arctic are warming faster than the global average. Warmer ocean temperatures around the continent have caused major ice melt around the ice sheet, including destabilizing the Thwaites Glacier, which is about the size of Florida and contributes to 4 percent of annual global sea level rise. Moon said changes in how the ocean moves as well as the atmosphere have also become more apparent. Experts say that this is not great news, as polar ice is one of the world’s biggest insurance policies against runaway climate change.
