    Pretty ridiculous that people now say these fires and heatwaves are “due to the climate”. Have they been living under a stone? Meteorologists have been predicting exactly this situation for YEARS! Folks, this is manmade, CO2-based climate collapse happening right in front of us.

      Yeah. I overheard someone say “I guess it’s due to the - oh what is it we’re supposed to say? (“Climate change?”) Yeah, climate change.”

      Like, it wasn’t a fifty year old concept.

      No no, not allowed to bring politics into this apparently.

        Whether that makes sense depends a lot on which country. Some Green parties (Notably in the US) behave as if they’re intentional spoilers to make the worst viable candidates win. Other countries, it makes a lot of sense.
