The school I went to got destroyed in a flood, people die in my city due to heat in summer. It is already acute, but people choose to ignore it. Eco systems are under immense pressure all around the world. This is not something in a far away future, it is happening right now.
What are you doing to help with the systemic change we need?
…you know over 1300 people died during a heat wave, like, a week ago, right? And that wildfires are tearing through he goddamn arctic circle right now? The fuck you think this isn’t acute. You just don’t see it yet because it’s affecting the global south, aka, the poorer, darker skinned countries. Asshole.
Man's sat here on negative votes talking about being simple lol.
Have you considered you aren't the target of the actions they're taking?
Their cause is constantly in the news every time they do this, I'd say they're doing a hell of a good job.
They aren't 'bringing awareness to climate change' they're saying 'stop dissociating and pay attention to this' and it's working.
"you won't get me on your side without actual evidence that this destructive behavior is doing more good than harm regarding the issue."
Oh no, sad noises, the vile hater won't support the only people trying to make a difference. May as well pack up, go home and wait for the world to end.
Shut up mate, you look stupid, you spell like a fool, and you're honestly an example of everything that's wrong with this world.
In the 1990s everyone was very polite about it and nothing happened.
"Anti climate" Phew lad, you need to stop already, you've already proven your point.
