first off, i dont think the world will end. yet. however climate change has the capability to make natural things like weather a whole lot more uncooperative, which makes for pissy people.

see the thing is, not many people really understand what global climate change entails. its not just the planet getting warmer, altho thats a part. its also weather that sees extremes. more hot days over 90. more days colder than freezing. more storms, more floods, more droughts. if i had to choose between hot and cold, i'd choose cold. perhaps this is genetic. but id rather not have to choose.

you: The planet has changed steadily for billions of years

me: except for the last 75 years or so. see chart

you: more water means more fish to eat and maybe enough rain to get rid of the deserts, doesn't it?

me: seawater absorbs more sunlight than land does, and absorbs green house gases, which heats up the ocean which causes water levels to rise as water expands. rising ocean temperatures will affect marine species and ecosystems. read: less fishies. more desert.

you: a little more action and a little less overreaction.

me: agreed. but action wont come until people agree that there's a problem. we have known about climate change for about 40 years.

but see, not many people wanted to believe it, because they saw a big ass snow storm and said "climate change isnt real". then the government told them climate change was fake news, because its bad for industry, and people wanted to believe that, because then they wouldn't have to pay more taxes.

so some people got louder. carried more signs. that didnt work, because no one wanted to change their habits or pay more money. so now we have this dilemma where if we push for action we get yelled at and made fun of. when we do nothing, people pretend there's not a problem, because no one wants to take responsibility. so how do we resolve that equation?

will things like climate change make canada warmer? yeah. but it will also will make other countries desperate to escape because they wont be able to grow food or escape the giant insects. they will all want to come to canada. then the earth will be lopsided and fall over on its ass and break orbit and go shooting off into outer space, and then aliens will come and eat us.

i dont wanna be eaten by aliens, do you?
