That's science though, the people that don't believe it will not be convinced by smart people sharing their discoveries.

Go instead with:
Humans helping the global warming demons is causing the polar ice cap gods to become weaker, who in turn are unable to contain the cold yin winds in the poles, causing them to move to your house.
I'll distribute the leopards. If you're Republican or voted for the pile of shit, just see one of the leopards. Tell them to go back where they came from, they'll know what to do. They're trained, it only takes a second. Pretty painless during... I assume. Oh it's figurative speech? Never mind! I'll get the pumas back. It was pumas right? Ew, I think this one already ate a face. Sorry sorry...
I guess the intent matters but that was kinda painful to read. I give 3 points for the intentions and effort but the execution gets 0.7 scores all across the board
Wat?
It's a riff on the leopards eating people's faces party joke/meme/satire/sarcasm that goes something like "I can't believe they ate our faces" says person who voted for the face eating leopards party. It basically means (in the original), you get what you vote for and shouldn't be surprised when it happens.
From that picture it looks like the weak jet stream is the problem. We just need to build a ton of wind farms across Canada to blow it harder so that it becomes more powerful. Easy.
If we want the wind farms to blow we'll have to power them using fossil fuels of course. It's the only solution.
And the pollution isn't a problem, because the strong winds generated will dissipate it away.
Oh, and the entire system must be ai-based
You need to convince them the Earth is a sphere first.
Then we need to convince them to build more big red arrows to keep the blue stuff up the top
Wouldn't a big red circle have more power then smaller individual red arrows?
Bet you're wishing for Trump and his sharpie now!
B b but it was hot in the summertime or something
It's just nature's hernia
Nothing will meaningfully improve until the rich fear for their lives
It's not the rich call it what it is. Capital. When profits are impacted we will see change. This is why I continue to say no one is going to bat an eye when Florida gets swallowed by the ocean but when New York does? That's when we will have a collective eye opening.
Capital
Poor word choice. It is more profitable to build renewables today. Oligarchist power to protect their existing assets, is not "rational capital allocation", but is what we get from power to corrupt capital allocation.

Honestly we are way past the point of any scientific reasoning. The public has voted that they are uninterested, and the US government and large corporations are about to be uninterested too.
To be blunt… No one ever really cared, but the world kinda squeaked by putting scientists in front of statesmen and public broadcasts. Everyone kinda nodded along, and not just for global warming.
That period is over.
No one ever really cared
That's just not true. The problem is that the people who care were never the kind of people who'd come into power in our society.
There could be more options to choose from if we enacted electoral reform and gave voters the freedom to vote outside the two party system with no spoiler effect.
Dayum. Well said. Though some people cared. We, the few, and Al Gore, for example. The great majority, no. It does appear that period is over, I agree. Perhaps this is how it has been for the last 4-5 decades. Maybe this hope's death will be the last in our history.
A few people cared, fewer did anything about it. Most were more concerned with mass production of cheap shit.
Got a heat pump to replace the gas boiler, bike instead of car and replaced the concrete paved garden with what will hopefully become a wildflower meadow with shrubs on the edges. You can actually just stop buying a lot of the stuff that is causing these problems.
God people like you make it sound so easy and then I tried it to find it's actually even easier.
I know! Its so easy its great! Plus its generally cheaper too, so I don't have to work very hard and I still have enough money. God damn life is easy.
Your actions you promote taking care only possible by those who own houses and have the means and funds to cover the replacements.
I understand you will say the wildflowers is basically free but it takes time that you have a privilege of having.
If that's where you set the positive actions that people can take most will not be able to achieve them and view you poorly for bragging about it.
