Attached: 1 image The North Atlantic just completely destroyed its June average temperature record, breaking the previous record by more than 0.4 °C (0.7 °F). A stunningly sharp excess for such a large body of water. #ClimateChange #GlobalWarming #Temperature #Climate #Atlantic https://berkeleyearth.org/june-2023-temperature-update/

    I can’t help but think of the climate activists who defaced the Van Gogh painting. Except they didn’t – because the painting is actually behind protective glass. I sincerely doubt most people got that fact from the outrage news cycle that followed that incident.

    If it makes it better worse, Britain then promptly passed a bill that makes “disruptive” protests like that illegal. The government policy towards the climate crisis there is still the same ol’ “Keep Calm and Carry On”.

      God forbid the slightest bit of discomfort, or even unease, about any agitation against the biggest threat our planet has seen since either the Permian or K-T extinction events. We cannot have that.
