    Wait, scientists think we’re heading towards catastrophe??? Why hasn’t anyone been saying this before? Oh, wait. Nevermind.

    Find some comfort, prepare yourself for things to get worse for the rest of your life, and focus on and cherish the small things that make you happy. Those ones will stick around.

        That’s just a good, fun thing to learn to do. It’s a lot easier than you might think. If you want an even easier skill to learn, make hard cider. Containers, apples, and time is basically all you need. You can wild ferment with the yeast on the apple skins, so you don’t even have to pitch.

        Learning to ferment things is one of those small happinesses that will stick around for a while.

        Thanks. I think neglecting small comforts and happiness is (partially) how we got into this mess in the first place.

    “But we have a hundred years before the environment collapses!?”

    Theoretically yes, but there’s that sticky point of what happens to us when the environment is collapsing dying.

    Well, shit is definitely getting progessively worse. However, are we really at the point where the best narrative has shifted from “climate catastrophe in 30 years or so” to “the end of human civilisation in less than 100 years”?

    One is trying to scientifically predict how massive climate systems beyond our current understanding may behave, while the other is just promoting doom hyperbole for clicks. You don’t have to look at the URL to realise it’s a massive multimedia organisation looking for clicks.

      Hello good day to you fellow Lemmy user, i will promply explain how it works. See, the hoax is to get you to spend money on you don’t need, while viewing corporations as eco-friendly whilst they utilize it as an excuse cheapen the cost of resources and give you worse products. Source here. Henceforth, the entire thing is in fact a hoax. Thusly I hope this clears up any confusion about us anti climate changers

      Edit: Fellow lemmiers, why do you downdoot me today?

        If only there were some body of governance that could regulate things for an entire society. Too bad mankind never had any tools like that. Oh well. Enjoy growing gills.

          On the contrary, the issue remains that climate change doesn’t exist at all, conversely it is made up, a faux issue that benefits corporations. Ergo, you really should not worry about it, in my opinion (imo)
