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:
How much each change to the atmosphere has warmed the world:
Recommended actions to cut greenhouse gas emissions in the near future:
Anti-science, inactivism, and unsupported conspiracy theories are not ok here.

MODERATORS
Maybe they think the flooding won’t affect them on their moral high ground.
They'll never claim an ounce of the responsibility they deserve, the fucking scumbags
Ha ha but You voted for Genocide!
/s
So did the protest non-voters, even moreso than the Democrat ones.
The non-genocide position was literally impossible to express no matter what you tried to do.
No it existed. Harris is on record saying she'd like to work towards peace talks.
Which is objectively better than option B: vote GOP "finish them off" and option C: literally doing nothing.
Okay, fine: to the extent that a non-genocide position existed, Harris was it.
But the real point is that even if a person disagrees with you about that, they still should've voted for Harris. She was at least objectively not more genocidal than Trump, and infinitely better on basically every other issue.

But at least we didn't help hurrying along the most recent great extinction!
I wonder if anything we built will last for the next sentient species that arises.
Well not voting in the American pres. election (or voting for someone sure to lose) was a half-vote for Donald. That's just math.
Oh, no doubt, but a worse foe lurks! Some people voted for Donald Trump.
I totally feel this frustration, and I'm not US so it's kinda not my business, but I don't buy this argument.
Trump America is a horror show, for sure. But the status quo before Trump is also the foundations that allowed America to become a new facist state. Any real solutions need to be bigger than what middle of the road Democrats are offering.
That doesn't mean you shouldn't vote against Trump. But the system is clearly broken, stop blaming victims of it, and start blaming its perpetrators.
Status quo of Biden implementing Green energy, EVs, build back better, PACT act, chips act, student debt relief, Obama's healthcare. And you're equating this to .... status quo.... , and .... a foundation of a fascist state. ........

Protest non-voters accounted for maybe 800k, while RFK accounted for 1.3m.
But sure, let's keep blaming voters instead of the Democrats that chose to represent Republican Lite™.
Republican lite at this moment sounds a lot more refreshing than Republican nazi

Obviously a clerical error. The decimal place is off. It's supposed to be 0.00
Probably a blessing in disguise. If they were funding climate research it would almost certainly be fraudulent science.
They had a corps of competent people with civil service protections who were getting paid out of that budget. They avoided committing fraud during the first Trump administration
This isn't the first Trump administration. This administration doesn't concern itself with civil service protections.
They are trying change things, but there's a good chance basic stuff like measuring CO2 concentrations would continue normally with a nonzero budget
Whaaaaat...?
The party who put a coal lobbyist in charge of the EPA for Trump's entire previous term did this...?
Nooooo.
