Climate - truthful information about climate, related activism and politics.
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.
I know this is Reuters and they're duty bound to report what was said but ..
Who the fuck is this cocksucking fucking cunt from one of the most polluting, waste-producing, selfish bunch of corporate cock-gobblers trying to kid eh
Fuckin sort out your cunts driving 12 litre V12s and running their AC 29 hours a day because it's hot, you daft stretched sphincter
His talk was meant for Chinese ears. You know, THE largest polluter in absolute terms on the planet? The one that is permitting and building Coal Fired Power Plants faster than every other nation on earth combined? They are effectively building two new ones every damn week!
As for "sorting out your cunts" the US hasn't built a new coal fired plant in a decade. We've also decommissioned nearly %50 of the existing ones and another 30% will be gone by 2029. We have work to do for sure but you are being ridiculous.
Vivek Ramaswamy would like to have a word.
I'm a bit out of the loop. Haven't watched the debate, haven't watched or read about it yet. What happened?
Called climate change a hoax and said us needs to frack, drill, and mine coal. Yes that is right he even went out of his way to include coal. You can likely find the sinppet on youtube if you use his name and climate change. It was insane.
China, India, Indonesia, Japan and Vietnam are building new coal fired power plants. China is by far the most important consuming over half the worlds coal today. They are also building the most plants, whereas especially Europe and the US are shutting down theirs over the years. So the US is in a position to lobby for less coal to hurt China and we all know the current problems both of them have right now.
