Discussion of climate, how it is changing, activism around that, the politics, and the energy systems change we need in order to stabilize things.
As a starting point, the burning of fossil fuels, and to a lesser extent deforestation and release of methane are responsible for the warming in recent decades:
How much each change to the atmosphere has warmed the world:
Recommended actions to cut greenhouse gas emissions in the near future:
Anti-science, inactivism, and unsupported conspiracy theories are not ok here.

Best we can do is say that the Climate Crisis isn't real.
- Republicans
Extremist left controlling the weather with a magical weather control machine.
Targeting only red states! If a blue state get hit it was a false flag attack!
As a minimum, a local emergency deparment should have an automatic interface to the nearest weather radar. If a radar scan suggests "ocean falling down", people should be alerted with text messages in the same way they'd be alerted of a wildfire, chemical leak or incoming missile strike.
Absolutely, but I'm not sure if a bunch of text messages sent out at 2 am would have prevented that many deaths. This is unbelievably tragic, but feels like the new reality with climate change :/
100% prevention is probably unattainable, but in case of the childrens' camp an early word of competent instruction "get away from rivers and find shelter on high ground" would have probably helped a lot. Even if it would have woken up only 10% of the people, they could have woken up the rest.
Meh it’s Texas.
Yeah, fuck all the kids and poor people who live there. They should pick themselves up by the bootstraps and move.
That's actually the GOP motto.
Yep. Anyone who's not GOP and repeats that shit is no better than them.
Fuck off. Bexar County 2024 voting:
Donald J. Trump /JD Vance 336,260 44.46% 71,404 8,892 255,964
Kamala D. Harris/Tim Walz 408,981 54.08% 74,997 22,964 311,020
Even the reddest counties in the US had significant votes against Trump.
Too general.
