So what are the climate change denialists in your life saying right now?

  • There are definitely worse scenarios. The worst I know states that most parts of the world will be uninhabitable by humans and estimate that there will be 1-1.5 billion survivors by the end of the century. So, end of our species? No, just too damn close for comfort.

    Some more context: I couldn't find the report unfortunately and I don't know wether it's a majority opinion in science. The scenario talks about a temperature increase of 7°C and of course it's a worst-case scenario. However, it's definitely a possible scenario.

    Edit: found this, definitely a credible scientist.

  • "hottest summer on record? Give it a rest, they say that every year!"

    That's funny because it's true. Also sad. Mostly sad actually.

    • Is south Germany very conservative?

  • The south is generally very save and the cities are quite left-leaning. On the countryside and in smaller towns and cities you do see shit like you mentioned, though. Your Biden are our Greens and Habeck or Baerbock in that case, but definitely the same shit. Not as blatantly and openly as in the US, though.

  • AfD is similar to Trump and DeSantis, no doubt. Difference is, Trump became President, DeSantis Governor. AfD is far away from that kind of power.

  • An anecdote of another country is pretty worthless in this discussion. While Bavaria and Austria are similar in many ways, racism is much more normalized in Austria, especially when comparing Vienna and Munich.

  • They're far outweighed by those that do eat meat.

    Hehe, meat-eaters fat

    • Eating meat creates four times more greenhouse gases than being vegan, landmark study finds

    Jump

  • A few hundred years ago there were 3 times more roaming bison than there are cows in the US today, so gas isn’t really an issue.

    I have my doubts that this is correct, or a very conveniently selective statistic, especially considering this

    Livestock make up 62% of the world’s mammal biomass; humans account for 34%; and wild mammals are just 4%.

    • Most Brits reckon Brexit has failed, new poll finds

    Jump

  • Technically, it didn't fail. It happened exactly the way anyone sane expected it to. That's why people said it's a stupid fucking idea.
