Am I being crazy thinking that if Australia was reamed by extreme weather this summer it would be better than not, as all the climate change deniers will use non-extreme weather as a 'see the climate isn't warming' argument. At least if this summer was fucked up, they would then have a more difficult time arguing climate change doesn't exist, which could be good timing as extreme weather is still dependant on local and global climate patterns, so there will be a return to less extremes once La Nina returns.
At the same time, more extreme weather is the last thing I want people to have to experience, especially as those who suffer the most from the extreme weather will probably be those least likely to deny climate change.
In summary, I think I'm being a little crazy sitting here hoping shit burns to the ground to prove a point.
That’s one hell of a serious increase over a one year period considering it has also been incrementally raising over 100 years and then bam! Big hit in 2023.
Pikachu face when there's large amount of fish dying everywhere. I wonder if large mammals like whales feel the heat in the water like we feel the heat in the summer and try to jump out of the water only to die in a much hotter environment.
