So we are all fucked, globally. Are they going to start closing borders or what?
We going to get super mass immigration soon?
Australia is already committed to allowing the country of Tuvalu to resettle here. Similar to what NZ and the US allow with other Pacific Island nations.
Whether this type of agreement is extended to larger countries is another question entirely.
Small island nations with similar heritage to much larger countries is a different matter to all of Africa, Middle East and Indian subcontinent using it as an excuse to get into Europe.
What
To take 1 country as an example 60 million Bangladeshi will need some where to live
On the one hand I’m really excited because I absolutely love summer and especially really hot days. If we get a 40+ on a day I’m not doing anything, I really will just sit out on the porch all day drinking lemonade, or depending on how close it is to Chrissy time, maybe a cheeky one of those Bundaberg things with the lids you can’t put back on
But on the other hand, I remember how bad the bushfires of 19-20 were, and black Saturday from stories passed down from my mum (we were in the country and I was a baby at the time). They ruined so many people’s homes and many people’s lives, and that’s not something I particularly want to happen again
I don’t know if youre being facetious or are genuinely unaware of how devastating this is on our natural and societal foundations. The further our climate slips away from the predictable seasons our agriculture was built upon, the increasingly likely our society as we know it runs the risk of abrupt collapse.
At this point it’s pretty inevitable. So I kinda empathize with OP to at least try and see the silver lining on this horribly dark cloud. Not saying burying your head under the sand is a good thing, but it might let folk breathe for a second (pun intended)
Meh, we’re fucked either way. We were fucked before I was even born. I’m very well aware of how things are headed, but we’re well past the point of no return. I just want to enjoy the nice days out on the porch with my lemonade. Thank you for your concern.
Unfortunately I wish I could disagree with you, but I agree- its probably best to make the most of what we have while we have it
This is literally the “This is fine” meme.
It’s entirely possible to drink lemonade on 40deg days while not being complacent. The impact of climate change isn’t ‘one day I’ll be dead’. It’s an ‘it’s going to get worse before it gets worse’ situation. It’s a future where you might not even be able to get lemonade or Bundy rum with caps you can’t put back on the bottle.
uh huh. didnt they say that about this last summer? this is getting old
