    Thanks, interesting stats in this article.

    Just a guess but climate change events (and corresponding headlines) have really ramped up in the last three years.

    And as the saying goes, there are no pockets in a shroud.

      Covid made me completely lose trust in society (they couldn’t even follow basic measures), the government (completely unprepared, constantly lying to the people), the economy (suply line issues for years show that any safety or redundancy was optimized away), even family members (half of them anti-vaxxers now).

      How are we going to manage the far larger crisis of a climate collapse? We won’t.

        A giant rift splitting the world into two might get the world to cooperate for about a month before people start complaining, followed by rich people and state rulers starting to focus more on how they could possibly enrich themselves from this.

        Hell when confronted with a big problem, almost half the US decided that fascism would be better than democracy.
