David HoIt doesn’t matter whether the rate of global warming is increasing. It’ll never cease to amaze me that people don’t care that it’s happening at all. It should be the most alarming thing ever.
Kent Navalesi ☕️Most people fundamentally do not care about anything. Perhaps the most depressing realization of my middle-age.
rdis@KentNavalesi most people care about many things. Some examples: economy, immigration, defence or offense (war), guns, their salary, family, status, religion etc. And people can do quite passionate protests in large numbers on these issues.
And climate change is not perceived as big issue, maybe because humans did no evolve to care about it (were not solving global issues throughout evolution). For comparison, imigration, displacement or war were huge issues affecting people.
