The climate crisis is here, just n case you'd missed it...

we can expect more extreme rain, hotter & longer heatwaves, more droughts & more serious wildfires across wooded & neighbouring areas.

But as always our political leaders are finding reasons not to act, or to do too little too late.... our generation(s) have already failed future generations, but with the speed of the climate crisis (seemingly) accelerating we're now failing ourselves!

How climate change worsens heatwaves, droughts, wildfires and floods

@ChrisMayLA6 the much bigger problem is going to be the sea level rise, and we're talking metres.

I would think anyone that takes notice of their environment must have seen changes. I have noticed things changing and in recent years becoming more extreme. Only an idiot or a politician can deny climate change

@ChrisMayLA6 I feel like the crisis arrived around a decade ago if not longer but it's spun out into collapse since then, we can't really reverse our way out and if we do it's not going to be back to a stable position until 2100 at the earliest. Trouble is seeing "normal" as a permanent and non-mutable position is why we're here. We saw it back in 2020 and we'll see it again because society can't imagine a new normal or even the death of normality as we know it so will lie to itself.
