Not just worried. We each need to do something substantial to reverse global warming.

reply

mbsolheim.bsky.social•55 days ago

Yes. I have always embraced the reports of climate change and they were right but the timeline wrong- initially it was well into the future but sadly it is happening now and we have all these idiots resisting making any change let alone the systemic changes that need to happen.

reply

sdhamiltonvic.bsky.social•55 days ago

Indeed. Happening much more quickly than forecast #ClimateCrisis

reply

bouldervoter.bsky.social•56 days ago

We're simply not going to save it. We won't do the most obvious thing. Stop burning coal. There is not a single country, party or movement in the world even considering what we would need to do to live sustainably on this planet. Negative economic growth, for one.

Am I wrong?

reply

harro93.bsky.social•56 days ago

You are right. Our complete lack of understanding of the seriousness of the situation is underscored by the fact that we put out record emissions every year. We haven’t reduced emissions at all in the 10 years since Paris

Shouldn't "Be Worried Be Very Worried" have been the headline for the Trump "Man of the Year" issue? I have no time for TIME.

Stop burning fossil fuels? There will never not be a need for fossil fuels!

frosty-morgan.bsky.social•56 days ago

Good to see Time using the true description "global warming", and not the Bush Jr euphemism of "climate change".

Coalition vows to remove, scrub, destroy any policies aimed at stemming the tide against Climate Change.

TIME lost me when they chose to give Trump a cover. I also don't need to be convinced there is a climate crisis. So now I'm wondering...perhaps there is some genius in their marketing.

reply

diogenes-original.bsky.social•55 days ago

I am. Just about everybody I know is in denial. Either to the facts or accepting the facts and don’t want to think about the impacts.

As of 2023, 92.2 billion land animals were kept & slaughtered annually in the global food system. Animal Ag is responsible for more greenhouse gases than all the world's transportation systems combined, 80% Amazon deforestation, 55% land use, water waste +. Plant-based uses 75-95% less water

Be organised. Be political. Refuse to be a victim. It's becoming clear billionaires have divided up the spoils among themselves, the takeover of the countries that have them & who is surplus to requirements in them. Refuse to go along. Refuse to obey. Walk. Sing. Win.

Fascists are overrunning the world. We're screwed. When, not if, the AMOC slows and stops in the next 35-40 years there will be weather chaos across the planet. But they don't give a damn. PROFIT over all other considerations. Stephen Hawking was right. Humanity is doomed due to greed and stupidity.

I am worried, extremely. I tried to vote for people who cared for this, and most everyone else voted the opposite.

We were supposed to worry about the climate change and now we're suddenly fighting over dominance instead. Does dominance really matter more than our planet's climate?

Looks like they've decided on a very fine and specific scope for addressing such a serious problem...

Incredibly worried. Any chance world leaders read TIME magazine? Sigh

reply

greatgenes.bsky.social•57 days ago

Not sure I can ever get past TIME putting Trump on their cover this year. I mean I get their logic, but I still don’t like it.

We can choose to withhold what little power we have from them. That much we can always choose…

P.S. I agree that we should all be very worried about the Climate Crisis!

bouldervoter.bsky.social•56 days ago

Time is owned by a fascist billionaire.
Who cares what the devil puts on the cover?

reply

greatgenes.bsky.social•56 days ago

We might not care… But many still believe what’s on the cover.

reply

bouldervoter.bsky.social•56 days ago

IKR? but the billionaire class owns virtually ALL the media now. Fewer and fewer sources will challenge the increasing rise of the fElon class.

Hence why we matter so much! This is the first ever global platform to have a significant mass of courageous thinkers & actors and we should not miss the opportunity presented to us to collectively share our voices 🕊️💙🦋

They missed the bit on the cover about Australia exporting significant emissions. Oh and trump, yes he has a part to play, not just China and India.

That's the story Time magazine did in 2006 but #climate change made the cover of Time in 1987 (October) too.

It's not on the front cover but I bought an old copy of Scientific American from 1974 & there's a snippet mentioning the imbalance in the Earth's carbon cycle.

(The cover is about non periodic tiling which is pretty cool)

#FWIW the second story in that edition of Time magazine was about the hole in the #ozone layer.

There was an international agreement to stop producing chemicals that destroyed that & the problem is shrinking now.
