People are disenfrenchised. Why should they care more about the weather than the medical system, corruption, wild animals or all the other problems. People know, they are just trained to not get involved.
Showing the problem trains them to ignore it more. What they need is confidence in their own abilities.

I need F to understand these images.
I think the 1% get it, they simply don’t care. It’s too hard, so, they’ll drink up as much money as they can from the rest of us to invest in bunkers from which they will watch the rest of the world burn.

Why should they care more about the weather
Because this weather directly leads to forest fires, floods and storms that can seriously ruin their life.

I always wonder how long they think they will survive after they make it through the apocalypse in their bunkers.

We’re trapped on a burning planet with superstitious dictators committing holocausts in broad daylight and there are forum mods/admins who find it within themselves to stop you from advocating online to ixnay a few fascists or billionaires
Fuck retards who vote for fascist lunatics.

wrote last edited by [email protected]The way that Capitalism is set up, is that if you care about anything long-term whatsoever - even long-term profits - you'll still be put out of business by the psychopath who is laser-focused on the next quarterly earnings announcement.
A lot of species extinctions happened because natural selection took them down a blind alley and left them there to get pulped.

Either we will choose these temporary measures to buy more time or billions will die.
It is a matter of time until we try it.
wrote last edited by [email protected]I would suggest mining asteroids, using the material to craft thin foil mirrors with 3 axis gyroscopes then positioning them at L1 Lagrange in order to selectively reduce incoming solar radiation to a safe, custom level, but obviously our ruling psychopaths will simply use it to block light to countries that don't pay up, and to focus it on countries to burn away undesirables.
And of course then we'll all have to pay a sunlight bill.

Sure, and apart from maybe bringing a temporary headline from some dramatic act of eco-terrorism, what's the average person's options at their disposal?
Granted, you're posting from a European account (hi from the US where this issue is even worse), but at the civilian level with people who do not have the capital or political influence to interrupt the engine of society, why risk anything by trying? For such marginal effect?

It is just a common thing that it doesn't make interesting news. Same for how many traffic deaths there are.
Fact right here. I used to work as a paramedic in a city with a couple of large bridges. So many people suicided off those bridges that it never got reported. It was too common and not shocking enough.

Sowing desperation is one of the strategies of the fossil lobby.
If people organize, they have tremendous power. Going to protests, making a local group to prevent ecocidal developments. Scrutinizing the deals of local government with companies known to are particularly destructive, organizing targeted consumer boycotts, making it a key issue in who you vote for or don't vote for.
The lobbies are scared of people breaking the apathy, so they spend enormous amounts of money on maintaining it. But if it breaks, it breaks hard and you could see changes in a year that seemed impossible in a lifetime before.

I think that sort of thing has been suggested
It has, it's basically the field of geoengineering

It's been unusually wet and cold in New England NSW. (edit: New South Wales, Australia) Seems to make some sense with extra heat meaning extra water in the air, meaning more water to fall out of the air when it hits the 1.4km high great dividing range.
It seems China also copping extra water.
Changing air currents and AMOC / SMOC also causing some interesting changes in weather distribution.

41 is fucking hot, Sydney (Australia) gets 1-5 of these a year.. 50 I can’t even imagine
I've experienced it. At that heat, the wind isn’t a relief. It’s like the burst of heat from opening your oven. True misery.

Bordeaux today: 43°C feel like: 49°C
eventually these temperatures left uncontrolled would reach Estonia.

Maybe this is just my media bubble, and I’m not saying I haven’t seen any articles about it, but I feel like remarkably little attention overall is being given to how many fucking people are dying in these heat disasters. Not just this one, but over and over.
No its not just you.
Climate coverage drastically diminished roughly during Covid, never came back, despite us blowing through the 1.5C limit 2 years ago now, insurance companies in the US more or less abandoning roughly the southern third of the US due to their own climate models, despite the AMOC destabilizing, despite us recently realizing the SMOC has actually been destabalized for a decade and is actively deteriorating.

"We've survived record-breaking high temperatures before, we'll survive them again"
(based on an actual quote from GB News, a Fox News wannabe)
Sounds like someone doesn't understand the concept of breaking records.
