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.

I think it would come up removed on Lemmy.

I'll take one for the team and fucking put that shit to the motherfucking test. Pretty sure we can bitch and moan all we want, as long as we aren't attacking some other user's ass.

I think you mean it might end up removed on this instance, though Lemmy itself doesn't have some kind of global automod built in, controlled by some central censorship team at the top. It's just regular mods following up on reports, generally. Maybe bigger instances have automods, but that would only affect those instances' users and the communities that live upon them.
