LETS GET FUCKING SERIOUS FOR A MINUTE
SETTING THE RECORD STRAIGHT:
More than 52,000 Europeans Died from Heat in Summer 2003

WHAT IS GLOBAL WARMING? This info can be found at...
Climatecrisis
Carbon dioxide and other gases warm the surface of the planet naturally by trapping solar heat in the atmosphere. This is a good thing because it keeps our planet habitable. However, by burning fossil fuels such as coal, gas and oil and clearing forests we have dramatically increased the amount of carbon dioxide in the EarthÃÂÃ’s atmosphere and temperatures are rising.
The vast majority of scientists agree that global warming is real, itÃÂÃ’s already happening and that it is the result of our activities and not a natural occurrence.1 The evidence is overwhelming and undeniable.
WeÃÂÃ’re already seeing changes. Glaciers are melting, plants and animals are being forced from their habitat, and the number of severe storms and droughts is increasing.
The number of Category 4 and 5 hurricanes has almost doubled in the last 30 years.2
Malaria has spread to higher altitudes in places like the Colombian Andes, 7,000 feet above sea level.3
The flow of ice from glaciers in Greenland has more than doubled over the past decade.4
At least 279 species of plants and animals are already responding to global warming, moving closer to the poles.5
If the warming continues, we can expect catastrophic consequences.
Deaths from global warming will double in just 25 years -- to 300,000 people a year.6
Global sea levels could rise by more than 20 feet with the loss of shelf ice in Greenland and Antarctica, devastating coastal areas worldwide.7
Heat waves will be more frequent and more intense.
Droughts and wildfires will occur more often.
The Arctic Ocean could be ice free in summer by 2050.8
More than a million species worldwide could be driven to extinction by 2050.9
There is no doubt we can solve this problem. In fact, we have a moral obligation to do so. Small changes to your daily routine can add up to big differences in helping to stop global warming. The time to come together to solve this problem is now ÃÂÖ TAKE ACTION !!!!!
Get off your ass!!! Do something!
Recycle!
Walk or ride a bike!
Leave your thermostat at 70!
Turn your damn lights off!
Get an e-test on your car and keep it clean!
Plant a fucking tree!
Don't litter!

Climate changes are quite normal in the grand historical scheme of things. Not every continent is experiencing dramatic changes in weather.
Global Warming is bullshit.
Q
Say what you want...
But the evidence is overwhelming...
message me back when your 60 and can't leave the house for fear of frying
Great post, Amber.
Great post, Amber.
the climate IS changing in many parts of the world. whether it's because of natural fluctuations or because of humans, we should at least try to minimise our contribution to it. good post TL
well said. but the language could have been better.
