Climate records tumble, leaving Earth in uncharted territory - scientists
A series of records on temperature, ocean heat, and Antarctic sea ice are "unprecedented", some scientists say.

Very worrying, and incredibly frustrating!
We're reading more and more of these posts every day. I feel like we also need a top post of things we can all feasibly do to help.
Go vegan, join a union, join an activist group
While I agree with you because it will help future generations, because of the slow (in human timescales) response of the earth to climate change we are now seeing the effects of emissions that were released decades ago.
Radical change is needed as soon as possible but the course of the next 10–20 years has been set by the emissions already released this century.
And yet the boomers on Facebook still argue that 'theres no proof' and 'the earth has always had natural cycles'. Actually, it's not just the boomers and that's frankly disturbing
I've never understood this argument. A lot of the things we need to change will actually make life better for so many, including animals. So surely it would be a good thing even if the science didn't obviously point out the link.
I read some quote the other day saying 'we're past the point of needing a thermometer, we need a fire extinguisher'. We all need to stop debating the finer points and just get on with some actual action.
