This shit is exactly why despite having hated growing up in the frozen tundra... I'm now staying. Its not worth giving up at this point in society.

Been a....something... guys. Best of luck to you in the climate wars.

May the odds be ever in your favor.

You do realize that we won’t be free of the effects, right? Where do you think all the climate refugees are going to go?

[–] cheeseblintzes@lemmy.world 4 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Obviously… that’s why the first sentence I wrote was that I was staying up north….

We're coming to you. We'll settle in arcologies at the poles, where it's still cool. Let the machines run all the industry in the sun-baked deserts of middle earth

Arcologies, sigh, thats the dream ain't it. At best were wgtting Stargate slave society, at worst Metropolis. Neither is something I much want.

Climate controlled rolling arcologies. Maybe we’ll get some kind of fusion laser that can freeze the water in front of the city as it rolls across the ice.

But what if I like my freezing weather at home?

[–] tygerprints@kbin.social 1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

You're welcome to it. You can have my freezing weather also! If it falls below 80 degrees in my apartment, I put a sweater on!! :/ I'm serious.

For other people: 80°F is about 21°C

I work with a lot of expats who feel the same, but I still like that I can clothe myself against the low temperatures, but not for the hot temperatures.
