the past few years, cold times were january to march here

2020-01-25 08:40:30 UTC  

we sometimes had snow in march

2020-01-25 08:40:32 UTC  

Climate ≠ localized weather.

2020-01-25 08:40:47 UTC  

well yeah

2020-01-25 08:40:49 UTC  

I know

2020-01-25 08:40:52 UTC  

Just messin

2020-01-25 08:40:57 UTC  

but people use local weather as an example for climate change

2020-01-25 08:41:02 UTC  

which is kinda silly

2020-01-25 08:41:08 UTC  

climate change is a slow process

2020-01-25 08:41:19 UTC  

it doesnt just get 10°C higher in 5 years

2020-01-25 08:41:20 UTC  

Though it was super bizarre when last week. We had 2 snow squalls in one day. Then 2 days later it was 68°f.

2020-01-25 08:41:27 UTC  

Climate change exists, however in science, there is no consensus

2020-01-25 08:41:41 UTC  

clearly, burning wood, coal and oil everywhere wont make the planet colder

2020-01-25 08:41:56 UTC  

co2 collects heat from sunlight that would be reflected without the co2

2020-01-25 08:42:03 UTC  

Correct, the burned material absorbs heat

2020-01-25 08:42:26 UTC  

The emissions absorb heat

2020-01-25 08:42:32 UTC  

but then also the co2 grows plants which cool down the planet

2020-01-25 08:42:33 UTC  

Carbon does that

2020-01-25 08:42:41 UTC  

meanwhile no one talks about pollution of oceans

2020-01-25 08:42:50 UTC  

People do.

2020-01-25 08:42:55 UTC  

no one talks about population growth in africa

2020-01-25 08:43:06 UTC  

imagine all of africa driving diesel cars and having coal power plants

2020-01-25 08:43:07 UTC  

But then conservatives go "ur not taken my straws!"

2020-01-25 08:43:16 UTC  

Great thunberg isnt making things easier either

2020-01-25 08:43:20 UTC  

they are correct tho

2020-01-25 08:43:27 UTC  

banning straws will not solve this

2020-01-25 08:43:36 UTC  

not even close

2020-01-25 08:43:41 UTC  

Nor does it change things

2020-01-25 08:43:54 UTC  

No. But we need to start somewhere with eliminating single use plastics.

2020-01-25 08:44:12 UTC  

or use plastic that doesnt last hundreds of years?

2020-01-25 08:44:18 UTC  

or make machines that remove plastic from oceans?

2020-01-25 08:44:22 UTC  

wait, they exist

2020-01-25 08:44:29 UTC  

but not very known and almost no funding

2020-01-25 08:44:41 UTC  

Yeah.

2020-01-25 08:45:01 UTC  

who is pressuring india, china and indonesia to actually have environmental laws?

2020-01-25 08:45:11 UTC  

trump seems to be the only one putting pressure on china at all

2020-01-25 08:45:20 UTC  

not this kind, but its a start i guess

2020-01-25 08:45:40 UTC  

@Dragun9500 Check "Sulapac" for plastic replacement

2020-01-25 08:46:02 UTC  

pretty much what could be one solution

2020-01-25 08:46:21 UTC  

it wont solve all

2020-01-25 08:46:23 UTC  

but its a start
