Willful blindness packaged as cleverness won't save you. Climate models show that we only have about 10-15 more years before complete climate collapse. Welcome to the anthropocene.

and here i am, waking up every day putting on my stupid pants and my stupid hoodie and meandering to my stupid laptop to make stupid little websites.

like normally i'm just going with the flow with this knowledge that the future is gonna suck but somedays like today it hits harder than it usually does when i see it written out this way

Don't fret. 'Scientists' (politicians that pretend to be scientists?) have been making this 'climate emergency' claim for generations now. It's all click-bait fearmongering.

oh you're one of those climate deniers. nothing you say is valid or worth listening to.

If I was losing the argument, I'd say something similar.

At the risk of excessive snark, are those the same models that predicted the ice caps melting in the 90s? Speaking purely historically, climate models and scientists predicting global catastrophe has happened multiple times, actual global catastrophe has not.

Were this issue not highly politicized, I could openly question the implications of kind of failures without qualification :/

See, that last insult is exactly what I was hoping to avoid. "Hey, this particular field of endeavor has a poor track record of making bad predictions of doom" is a verifiable fact, and you just turned it into partisan shit-flinging.

Nobody's attempting to own anyone here, but thanks for lowering the standard of discourse substantially.

>Temperatures have topped 100 at the North Pole

No they have not. The highest temperature ever recorded was 56. Cite your sources.

sep_field silently edited their post to change "North Pole" to "the arctic".

This is annoying bickering, made only worse by the fact that you're both quoting temperatures without sources or units.

Here's some news: The arctic melting was already projected with or without human interference. At best, we marginally sped up the process.

> The Polar Vortex has gotten completely destabilized

Yes, every whether phenomenon is now caused by global warming, as if Texas has never seen ice.
