NASA called the soaring heat “part of a pattern of increasing global temperatures, as a result of human activities, mainly carbon dioxide emissions.”

    Corporate democrats aren’t going to make the sacrifices needed to stave off the worst of climate change, they have reelections to worry about.

    We’d need to roll back so many modern comforts in order to actually make progress in making sure we don’t destroy the planet and no one is lining up to be the boogie man who takes AC away from millions.

    I hate to say it, but most people will only care when climate change personally affects them, just like COVID. Until then it’s heads in the sand all around.

      So… uh… why aren’t you trying to replace them with further left democrats?

      Maybe it’s a dumb question to ask someone who already feels defeated, but I’ve seen it done.
