The planet could see 2 degrees Celsius of warming by the end of the decade.

    Life finds a way is one of the top ten anti climate change propaganda myths. Life doesn’t always find a way. Sometimes life gets blasted in the face and goes through a mass extinction event. Saying you think our kids will find a way to adapt is taking the passive bystander approach.

      No it isn’t. That’s a nonsensical statement that is at odds with both human nature and climate science.

      So far, there are always survivors of the mass extinctions. No indication that this one will be different.

        I’m sure that’ll be very comforting for the 99% of humans that die in that case.

        You know how we adapt? By changing now.

            Because saying things like, “I trust our kids” is part of how climate denialism was sold to Boomers and Gen X. We tried the low pressure approach. It’s time to panic people.
