    i wonder how in the fuck anyone can possibly be surprised anymore. it’s almost like highly qualified experts have been warning us for literally over a hundred years. people panic and freak out, saying the climate apocalypse is coming and we’re gonna die if we don’t do something. fuckers, climate change isn’t coming, it’s already here - it has been for decades. it’s way too fucking late to avert a crisis. all we have left are consequences.

      We already have consequences, yes, but they could become a lot worse if we don’t do something.

    These closing lines… FML

    She described the coastal flooding simulation as “scary,” but also inevitable.

    “It’s there. We have to deal with it. Climate change is a fact of life and those of us with properties on the water have to be sensitive to it,” Scales said.

    “Would I buy another waterfront property? Probably not.”

      We’ve tried nothing and we’re all out of ideas.

      Louder for those in the back!

      Proportional representation without a referendum is the best way for parliament to do what’s necessary to fight against climate change.

      Unfortunately, many of the largest contributors to climate change don’t even have parliaments

    Governments and companies don’t seem to acknowledge that driving less would be beneficial. If they did, there would be a greater push for work from home for jobs that can be done remotely.

    Climate change is so accepted that the general thought is “don’t buy a lakefront house in PEI or Nova Scotia.”

      push for work from home

      Work from home will never be accepted by bureaucrats. It immediately showed that employees can be happier while maintaining productivity, ‘hours of operation’ are irrelevant, and those HUGE buildings with astronomical rent are totally useless. All things that get under the skin of bottom feeding management and bureaucrats because it takes away their control over other people.

        Maybe the kiss-ass management. I either see the idiots touting the company line like its gospel or the ones who just want to get shit done as pissed off as everybody else. I’m sure there are those who abuse WFH, but they are driving all their talent away with these policies.

        The useless buildings are probably more to blame. Need them tax breaks to min/max their property investments by pushing the cost of transportation onto the labor class.

    Is there a similar program for Germany or Europe?
