There's a lot of shame being an American these days..
But, like, at least we can spell.
Color is not a valid spelling
I seriously thought they were talking about giving out a global warning or something and scrolled by confused, scrolling Lemmy again and seeing it once more I realized they were talking global warming
You've been warmed about this warning
Agent Smith (the Wachowskis) had us dead to rights.
We are a macro cancer of the natural world. You can point to our supposed good works, but from the perspective of most surface life, well... the surface life we haven't yet exterminated in the name of glorious economic metastasis, we are a fucking plague.
Metastatic tumors refuse to stop too. It's in their nature.
I find consolation in knowing we aren't the first macro cancer Earth has survived, see the trees of the carboniferous period, and life will survive our species' very loud, eager murder suicide.
The great thing about the palisades fires, they increased police presence and cut fire fighters so you know there was 0 homeless presence. Only rich bastards that can either afford it, or deserve it.
I liked yesterday's picture of the Titanic nosing deeply into the water and somebody up on the stern end saying if we're supposedly "sinking" how are we up so high? Classic denialist mentality. Unfortunately also typical of the meme-level thinking people do on most issues now.
Did we change the term to "global warning"?
Didn’t notice until you pointed it out
That was a previous term for climate change.
No, the term was "global warming"

They voted trump back in to the white house, there's no hope for them.
As an American trapped inside with these proudly ignorant fuckwits, can confirm.
Good luck when climate change makes us desperate though. There's literally only one thing we are genuinely very, very good at, to my shame; mass production of the means of mass murder. It's pathetic how many of my fellow Americans take a perverse pride in this.
I genuinely fear for the rest of the world when the water wars start. We're idiocracy with a cartoonishly big stick we're absolutely dumb and petty enough to use.
Once we smash enough stuff the stick will start smashing us too, don't worry.
As MAGA/ADL would say it is "pro hamas woke climate alarmists supporting DEI" that make Jewish Space Lazers cause all of this.
You forgot the smelt.
You won't convince people if you use the term "warming" and then present them snow in Texas. Climate change is the right expression.
The Guardian now uses "climate crisis".
Eh, "Global Warming" is fine. Texas isn't the globe. I've come to believe the whole "If we explain it differently, maybe it'll convince them" approach is largely a waste of energy.

I mean yes, but also
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_greenhouse_gas_emissions
The US by far gets the most press, and has some of the most braindead responses to the climate crisis, but it’s a big club of assholes, and America is just a part of it
Now show us per capita
How does this change my message that the US isn’t the only player in this game?
Edit:
According to: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_greenhouse_gas_emissions_per_capita
By percent of global average
If you can't see it with your own two eyes, I don't think any explaining on my part will help. Obviously all countries pollute, but some more than others.
wasn't it called climate change?
global warming is the raising of the global average surface temperature. This causes climates of many regions to change. It wasn't renamed, it's just two connected phenomena
The post says "global warning"
Nah now it's climate exchange
We might be at climate conundrum, survival of life as we know it or more short term profit for the few.
The Bush administration coined the term climate change to try and soften the urgent or legitimacy of the issue, Bush at one point owned an oil company.
The Bushes owned fucking Texas, and expanded into Florida.
How dare you, have some compassion, now is NOT the time to talk about Global "Warming" or whatever conspiracy you're hawking today. Our thoughts should be with the people, we should be sending thoughts and prayers, and you just want to make it all "political".

OBVIOUSLY THEY DESERVED IT BECAUSE THEY'RE A BUNCH OF HEATHENS
Oh yeah. We're doing fine as a country. The sad part is we could actually solve this problem, humanity could indeed solve this if we put our minds to it and unified. We're stupid dumb monkey brained though and can't think of anything beyond "I got mine"

Well the first one is just a normal Tuesday. Still likely effected by global warming, but not really disasters like the other three.
Well, you know... you can't attribute any one event with certainty.
Only 9 of the last 10 apocalypses were caused by global warming, and we can't really tell you which ones...
