The data and the scientific projections and assessments now find that all three greenhouse gasses are going up faster then anybody ever believed they could.

Worse then all our predictions.

Worth going back to 20:00~ for context, but essentially our carbon sinks are failing to absorb anything, scientists thought they would start to fail after 2050 and it happened this past year.

i have accepted i will eventually be living in a climate crisis for a long time now. i saw that those in power had no intention of preventing further destruction of our planet and forced myself to swallow that pill so i don’t get caught unaware when one day we’re fighting each other over water. i truly hate being pessimistic but other than through a violent revolution dismantling capitalism what chance does the average person have at surviving the upcoming climate wars?

Everywhere will be affected but some places will be better than others-- the time to move is now, if you can

Not to argue with you, but wouldn't the great lakes be good places to survive the climate crisis?

theyll also be one of the most warred over areas if there are water struggles, theres no winning imo

Living in war vs dying. This is the choice

Struggles over water are massively overhyped and lack of water is not consistent with the direction climate change is taking (hot, wet, jungle planet)

Not really, the great lakes will basically okay for the next while as snowfall increases, until the snow comes as rain and you get severe unprecedented flooding.

Although wasn't there unprecedented flooding in Minnesota last year?
