The Global Climate Catastrophe Gigathread

[Macheath]

We have threads for the Republican disaster, the 2020 Election disaster, the Trump disaster, the COVID disaster, and the BLM disaster, but none of those feel like the right place to post about our incoming (already here?) climate disaster!

Well, maybe the anger thread would fit, but not specific enough. Maybe this weather thread, but not angry enough.

Anyway, welcome to the new climate disaster thread. Stay tuned for the "2020 Financial Crisis Terathread" in the next month or two!

You know California is burning, but did you know San Diego is on fire now too?

Other than voting blue, and taking personal steps to be less wasteful and consumery, I feel utterly powerless when it comes to climate change.

Wildfires fit the theme of this thread, so I'll post this here. Lucky son of a bitch:

Fairly concise.

Fairly concise.

I'm shocked that Tucker Carlson would promote a right wing lie on his show. Shocked, I tell you!
