you ignore it until you can't anymore

Yeah 50 degrees still seems kind of chilly
50 is "cook an egg on the hood of your car" weather, lol.

The rich decided they will just relocate to cooler zones and leave climate refugees to die. That is why the US is trying to take Greenland and co-opt Canada. Also why border security is getting so much attention. Climate refugees will be a major issue in the future between rising seas and unlivable heat zones.

If it's not heat waves, it's several days of hard rain, dirty water swirling round your hips, and the constant threat of leptospirosis or rat shit disease.

I'm surprised there has been so little ecoterrorism in response to climate change.
Have you read The Ministry for the Future? Pretty much that plot line. People just get fed up and take it into their own hands. I liked it.

We didn't get here through selfishness though. That's the saddest thing. Human development has always been inherently cooperative. The tribe survived what killed the individual.
I'm not denying humans can be selfish. But societal selfishness on the scale we have now has to be enforced on some subliminal level in my opinion.
We're cooperative with our tribe, but selfish with everything else. What an individual's tribe is varies from person to person.

Stop. Eating. Animals. Today.
It's not the solution, but is the easiest step everyone can take. No solution will ever be enough without us changing this habit. -
Most Americans thinking in Fahrenheit are gonna think this doesn't look so bad.

Don't forget to add 32 afterwards

What we actually need is classes on critical thinking - basic formal and informal logic as a mandatory part of school cirriculums at whatever age it is appropriate.
We also need to move away from the hierarchical top-down mode of education we use today.
It's called math.

Definition of ignore: refuse to take notice of or acknowledge; disregard intentionally.
A mountain doesn't ignore anything because it doesn't have the capacity to be aware of anything to then choose to ignore it.
How do you know? Have you asked the mountain?

The problem is that ordinary people can only do so much to prevent climate change, any real impact can only come from above, by goverment regulations and the ultra rich following those regulations and doing their part, unfortunately the filthy rich control the government and they would rather take 16 min flights in their private jets, the planet be damned

And right there, that's why I should look things up before I open my mouth. I remembered the 9/5, and forgot the last part.

Just north of Seattle yesterday I was in my living room and the thermostat was 81 degrees. I was dying. I thought for a sec...if this gets to 100 we're just going to cook. But then I realized its still Fahrenheit. But wow! 50C is just such a crazy temp to even try staying alive in. That's fly away weather right there.

Work from home, buy less stuff, eat less meat, and most importantly throw all billionaires feet first into a wood chipper.
The problem is real. the past few years it's been raining as much as snowing during polar night in northern Norway.

There was the theory I read last year about billionaires not giving a shit that the world is getting worse because they were building bunkers and yachts and hoarding resources.
Knowing what I know about religious folks who also actively push for the end of the world to fight with angels or some shit, it checks out.
1 billion people doing a major life change would move the needle in fixing the world. But you can also get the same results with a few billionaires.

"Global warming" was always a weak formulation of the problem, and "climate change" is even weaker. I prefer "Anthropogenic runaway global heating" which has the handy acronym ARGH.
In german the term "climate catastrophe" (Klimakatastrophe) is used more and more often.

Nah but we're getting rid of the NASA satellites that monitor this so we won't see climate change anymore

EDIT: added rest of formula because I'm an idiot
I usually just multiply by 2, subtract 10%, and then add 32. Usually easier than 9/5 and gives same result.

Not that I know of.
