Oh good lord, not even room for the ‘Accept’ button

This is hitting the same issue I see with my local de-carbonization scheme. At the same time we’re asking everyone to switch to electric, the utility monopoly is jacking rates through the roof, forcing everyone onto time of use plans, and eliminating credits for selling home solar power back to the grid.

It appears possible to scroll the window where you don't have accept/cookie settings buttons fully visible.

The whole modern commercial web is like that. Pretty much unusable without uBlock origin or the likes.

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: Graph of temperature as observed with significant warming, and simulated without added greenhouse gases and other anthropogentic changes, which shows no significant warming

How much each change to the atmosphere has warmed the world: IPCC AR6 Figure 2 - Thee bar charts: first chart: how much each gas has warmed the world.  About 1C of total warming.  Second chart:  about 1.5C of total warming from well-mixed greenhouse gases, offset by 0.4C of cooling from aerosols and negligible influence from changes to solar output, volcanoes, and internal variability.  Third chart: about 1.25C of warming from CO2, 0.5C from methane, and a bunch more in small quantities from other gases.  About 0.5C of cooling with large error bars from SO2.

Recommended actions to cut greenhouse gas emissions in the near future:

Anti-science, inactivism, and unsupported conspiracy theories are not ok here.
