I took this picture this morning. Mid December in Belgium and it is definitely not normal. The following scenario rolled out in my head: what if all plants bloom in December, don't get pollinated, then when bees wake up there's no food, they are decimated. Wouldn't that be a huge biological collapse?

It's kinda terrifying since I've always lived through snowy, cold winters.

How much each change to the atmosphere has warmed the world:

Anti-science, inactivism, and unsupported conspiracy theories are not ok here.
