But all the news is fascist billionaire PR now

And as it progresses, deniers will continue to point at mistakes in the predictions as some proof that it isn't happening, even as it occurs around them. They don't realize that the errors that will grow are because this is unprecedented in the geological history and so scientists are having to make best guesses rather than use the past for modeling. It's a whole new world...

Sounds like the pandemic times to me...

Edit: i mean the deniers. Their reaction to plain extraordinary things happening around them.

They will always find a way to deny reality.

Over the past year, books like Hunger Games have started to feel unsettlingly prescient. But perhaps we can skip that dystopia altogether and instead careen directly toward the Mad Max world.

kinda always has been

Thousands of years. Gotta love the young earth creationists... Lmao

There's a really easy way to fix that... :)

God controls the climate. Duuuuh. When your crops fail your people starve that's just God giving you the middle finger.

Should have given those crops Brawndo. Brawndo's got what crops crave.

skip dystopia ... Mad Max world.

Skip THAT dystopia.

Oops

Lots of things should be front page news but aren't. I think it's to keep people placid, they tend to get very angry when you try to show them there's nothing anyone can do now and we're not going to survive the century.

90% of earths topsoil is at risk of depletion by 2050

Global freshwater demand will exceed supply 40% by 2030

Global human population has surpassed Earth’s sustainable carrying capacity.

Global carbon emissions are still rising

The latest CFSv2 model runs now show the Nino 3.4 SST anomaly forecast peaking at 4.10°C in November.

The arctic sea ice extent is declining rapidly and we're likely headed into a Blue Ocean Event later this year, and potentially a double BOE depending on how the El Nino and summer in the southern hemisphere go.

June 2026 came in as the second warmest on record since 1940 at 1.39°C above the 1850-1900 pre-industrial baseline, second only to 2024 at 1.50°C above the baseline

The world is likely to exceed a key global warming target soon but the earths alebedo with the declining sea ice and lack of cloud cover will impact these numbers massively and isn't being predicted for, which means that 4.5c above the baseline by 2060 is now possible.

If you haven't yet, you should read Octavia Butler's Parable series, it's a far more realistic take and she was very prophetic about certain things.

Stop consuming it?

We all make mistakes.
