Unless Kamala won.

according to computer security experts, the US presidential election was likely hacked via voting software.

The numbers Trump achieved are non-credible.

Does that matter if she conceded?

it does not matter that she conceded.

The concession is not legally binding, it's a polite thing that politicians do.

If it turns out that enough votes are are illegitimate, then the states swing to kamala and she becomes the president-elect.

since there have been convictions and admissions that they tried to steal the presidential election in 2020 via the fake electors scheme, this is not an outlandish theory, but something that has happened before on a broader scale.

We have no idea what's going to happen, but it's crazy that the dems didn't order manual recounts in all the swing states since Trump's lawyers hired people to literally steal the election software we used for 90% percent of the voters in those States.

Discussion of climate, how it is changing, activism around that, the politics, and the energy systems change we need in order to stabilize things.

As a starting point, the burning of fossil fuels, and to a lesser extent deforestation and release of methane are responsible for the warming in recent decades: Graph of temperature as observed with significant warming, and simulated without added greenhouse gases and other anthropogentic changes, which shows no significant warming

How much each change to the atmosphere has warmed the world: IPCC AR6 Figure 2 - Thee bar charts: first chart: how much each gas has warmed the world.  About 1C of total warming.  Second chart:  about 1.5C of total warming from well-mixed greenhouse gases, offset by 0.4C of cooling from aerosols and negligible influence from changes to solar output, volcanoes, and internal variability.  Third chart: about 1.25C of warming from CO2, 0.5C from methane, and a bunch more in small quantities from other gases.  About 0.5C of cooling with large error bars from SO2.

Recommended actions to cut greenhouse gas emissions in the near future:

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