Well that’s pretty scary.. I mean, at least the scientists say that it’s more likely the current will just slow down rather than completely collapse? But then again, all the climate change models predicted a much more conservative timeline on when we would be experiencing the effects of climate change than what is actually happening in the real world now.. so idk, scary shit man ☹️
they also have admitted to only announcing the most optimistic results because nobody would believe them if they didn't, and if people did it would be devastating
Ugh, and of course because of that people have been dragging their feet on making necessary changes to the point of doing basically nothing anyway… I feel like the risk of people saying it’s too extreme maybe would have been worth instilling a sense of panic in people over climate change? Feels panic worthy to me
We have become so politically correct that giving people upsetting thought may actually kill us all.
That was dumb of them. Enough people would believe to make make actual changes. To move earth and societies. Now what do we got? Too many people that don’t believe because they tried to make people believe. I think that all continues to be a massive mistake. Just know that most people aren’t that smart and you can convince a lot of them. Be not scary enough and those same not smart people will work against you with their emotion based reasoning.
are you joking, basically all of modern society has a vested interest in people not believing it.
If how conservative they've been in the past is any indication, this is going to happen next monday
Yeah, for real though considering they are saying it could happen anywhere from 2025 (wtaf) to 2095 (lol)
