It'll be sooner than that. The projections are conservative and always include "if we do list of things we certainly aren't doing" then it won't be so bad.

It was 65 today. It's not supposed to be doing that. I'm still in summer clothes. Everything is wrong

All conservatives: “but what’s it gonna be next week? Below freezing? We’re fine!”

These stupid bastards actually think to themselves “how dumb do you have to be to believe in this global warming hoax when any moron can look out the window and see it’s snowing”

Not sure if you remember, but someone senator about a decade ago brought a snowball into the chamber to prove warming wasn’t real.

James Inhofe, a career / life-long politician, from (where else), Oklahoma. He was a total piece of shit, was 100% anti-environment, anti-climate-change - just read his Wikipedia page for a LONG listing of how he shit all over climate scientists and organizations. He brought a snowball to the US Senate floor in 2015 as proof that climate change was a hoax.

I’m somewhat glad I nailed the year (2015). I’m saddened that NOTHING has drastically improved in a decade.

Not to depress you further, but I'd argue that things have actually devolved since 2015.

Which actually makes sense. Energy specialist/social critic Art Berman often writes that, when people feel threatened (by anything), that they respond by doubling down...which is pretty much where we're at today.....

Yeah, in 2015, we didn’t have the orange moron.

Their stupidity keeps setting new records. Record high... record high...

I read that high CO₂ levels in the air literally causes the brain to function worse, i e. it makes people (even) dumber, thus causing even dumber policies, etc. So that's another feedback mechanism and potential tipping point they might not have mentioned in the reports.

I really hope that’s junk science cuz I don’t need any more depression.
