NASA called the soaring heat “part of a pattern of increasing global temperatures, as a result of human activities, mainly carbon dioxide emissions.”
I wish news would stop saying the broad term human activity and more accurately say corporate activity.
Yes, the general population contributes to climate change, but the real polluters are the big companies manufacturing things, big oil, etc. They don’t care about what they’re doing and lobby govt’s to put the blame on the citizens.
who are those corporations selling stuff to? maybe those buyers should stop that.
100 companies have contributed over 70% of greenhouse gas emissions. Only 100.
Do you really think that an average joe can make a difference? The blame doesn’t lay on ordinary people. Us polluting is a byproduct of corporations polluting.
I’ve unfortunately reached the point of “Yup. I’m not surprised” with little other emotion. I can’t do anything about it. I eat red meat once a week, live in a city so I don’t drive and work from home. I don’t know what else I can do but I do feel exasperated. Like, how can no one who holds the power to change, care? If they don’t, how can I care anymore?
This is fine. 🐶 ☕
