Yep, rather wild how we went from "we should be stopping climate change, but it won't really affect us for the next few decades" to whole countries burning, being flooded etc. in just a few years.

And yet there are still politicians arguing that it isn't real or it isn't man made and we should actually be helping the fossil fuel industry.
