Yeah there was an agreement in Paris in 2015, and the one of the first things Trump did when elected to office was to back out of that deal. Never trust an (unsuccessful) business man to choose what is best for people, they only care about making more money for themselves and to hell with all the people that die or get hurt along the way.

We rejoined in 2021.

The doomer view is that even that agreement is too little too late. We should’ve been doing this stuff in the 80s.

Good to know the billionaires will do just fine. Rest of us not so much

Clearly politicians continue to know more than climate scientists. I mean, numbers going up is a good thing, right?

We are so fucked.

Don't we deserve it if we keep voting for those kind of politicians, and reject the ethical ones?

If "Don't Look Up" taught me something, is that environmental change is doomed to fail short of a civil war.
