kinda late even if they did now 😔

No, it's not. If we started large scale changes now, we would have to endure years of terrible condition with the slight hope that things will improve afterward. Saying "it's too late" equals to saying we'll have to endure years of terrible condition while expecting even worse afterward. It's still a bad posture, no matter how you spin it.

Totally correct. We live now, act now. The future remains not determined, but damn right paths and options are rapidly closing.

Probably something like an inhabitable band will form over continents; the US southwest and south gulf, for instance.

All humans won't die. That's silly. But very many can, and the rest, degraded.

The US will be lucky if much survives, as will Europe; once the Gulf Stream breaks down both regions will freeze

Rules:

Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
