Discussion of climate, how it is changing, activism around that, the politics, and the energy systems change we need in order to stabilize things.

As a starting point, the burning of fossil fuels, and to a lesser extent deforestation and release of methane are responsible for the warming in recent decades: Graph of temperature as observed with significant warming, and simulated without added greenhouse gases and other anthropogentic changes, which shows no significant warming

How much each change to the atmosphere has warmed the world: IPCC AR6 Figure 2 - Thee bar charts: first chart: how much each gas has warmed the world.  About 1C of total warming.  Second chart:  about 1.5C of total warming from well-mixed greenhouse gases, offset by 0.4C of cooling from aerosols and negligible influence from changes to solar output, volcanoes, and internal variability.  Third chart: about 1.25C of warming from CO2, 0.5C from methane, and a bunch more in small quantities from other gases.  About 0.5C of cooling with large error bars from SO2.

Recommended actions to cut greenhouse gas emissions in the near future:

Anti-science, inactivism, and unsupported conspiracy theories are not ok here.

This is all I can think about every time he’s in the news. Yes fuck trump but this guy is weird.

In context of the hollywood if this is his only wierd thing, he is a saint.

People get bent out of shape over him while hollwyood is literally filled with rapists and pedophiles who mostly went un punished with a few exceptions.

You can hate the pedophiles and rapists and still think what he does is creepy too. It’s not a sliding scale of dickbag where the more awful shit they do the more okay it is to do less awful shit. I can’t believe you got 7 upvotes for that.

Him being "creepy" is just your opinion that is shared pretty widely

Rapist and pedos are criminals and get away with it because they are part of the club.

Bringing up that hollywood is pedos amd rapists woll generally get downvotes while two consenting adults using each is apparently an issue worth society's attention.

Thats some whacked out priorities is my point here.

that's a big if. there's no way that a guy who can't go near women with fully developed brains has no skeletons in his closet.

Yes i would not bet my farm on it but are there any credible reports?

It seems any time a sex pests gets exposed, everybody in the industry already knew... Diddy, Weinstein, sheen etc

[–] SteveKLord@slrpnk.net 5 points 3 weeks ago

He's one of many celebs known for having close ties to Diddy so those skeletons will be coming out of the closet soon enough.

Is it weird to be attracted to younger women, know that marriage isn’t for you, and then have different relationships within the type that interests you?

Idk, I think he’s just marching to his own drummer rather than being an Epstein.

It is weird he hasn't matured in any way since his 20s, yes. Usually humans continue to develop throughout their lives, interest in relationships with people significantly younger than you either shows you haven't matured since the rough age they are, or you feel people your own age are far too challenging due to their equal footing and prefer manipulating less mature people.
