Arctic is warmest it's been in 10,000 years

Denying anthropogenic climate change at this point is like believing in a flat earth, a geocentric universe, that the moon landings were fake or being an anti-vaxxer (at least without the punch on sight felling that anti-vaxxers generate in me).

We have had the chance, as Lord Vetinari puts it, of grabbing events by the collar and at least try to mitigate the damage and disruption it will cause. Instead, thanks to stupidly unwise people with more money than brains, events have grabbed us by the throat.

Does that mean I should stop fighting? No. I have an obligation to my nephews and nieces to do what I can until the bitter end.
“We can never undo what we have done. We can never go back in time. We write history with our decisions and our actions. But we also write history with our responses to those actions. We can leave the pain and the damage in our wake, unattended, or we can do the work of acknowledging and fixing, to whatever extent possible, the harm that we have caused.”
