Will this affect Mark in his bunker? If not, not sure why I’d care!
World News
A community for discussing events around the World
Rules:
-
Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
- Post news articles only
- Video links are NOT articles and will be removed.
- Title must match the article headline
- Not United States Internal News
- Recent (Past 30 Days)
- Screenshots/links to other social media sites (Twitter/X/Facebook/Youtube/reddit, etc.) are explicitly forbidden, as are link shorteners.
-
Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. The key points in 1-2 paragraphs is allowed (even encouraged!), but large segments of articles posted in the body will result in the post being removed. If you have to stop and think "Is this fair use?", it probably isn't. Archive links, especially the ones created on link submission, are absolutely allowed but those that avoid paywalls are not.
-
Rule 3: Opinions articles, or Articles based on misinformation/propaganda may be removed. Sources that have a Low or Very Low factual reporting rating or MBFC Credibility Rating may be removed.
-
Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, anti-religious, or ableist will be removed. “Ironic” prejudice is just prejudiced.
-
Posts and comments must abide by the lemmy.world terms of service UPDATED AS OF 10/19
-
Rule 5: Keep it civil. It's OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It's NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
-
Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.
-
Rule 7: We didn't USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you're posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

Spoiler Alert: Look around you. Humanity is not going to address this issue. Enjoy your life and if you have kids, let them know their futures and their kid's futures etc are going to be progressively bleaker.
You dont know the future and you dont know what hope is left. Stop being such a defeatist. Either do something positive or go smoke some weed or something..
I'm before we hit 2C by 2030
Wow, wasn’t it just last year when they took the 1.5° target off life support and called it?
Now the 2° is dead? Are we killing off 2.5° by summer?
Last year there was hope that the US will at least not get worse.
lots of folks said it was not going to happen. Last year was really recognizing there was absolutely no way its happening because it had actually passed it already so there is no way we were not passing it as we have. you will see something when we pass it about how now its impossible not to im sure soon enough.
The scary part is that seems to make no difference (to people, corps, countries). Has anyone changed anything based on passing that target? Will the anyone change their minds or behavior with this new projection?
Maybe I’m just cynical with the disaster of the US elections - we were finally making a little progress, finally had reason to hope, but we just threw that away
All of last year, every time they said this month was the hottest on record, I kept saying "So far..."
We either become mole people, dolphin people, or space people
Maybe oxygen clubs will be the new thing in 50 years to get out of the smog/humidity
Yeah, or just dead people.
Apparently some of us “dril baby drill” and we’ll make those profits when we get there
Maybe oxygen clubs will be the new thing in 50 years to get out of the smog/humidity
Too late, these exist:
Okay my next big idea is the bodega van. Instead of an ice cream truck for kids it's a convenience store for adults in the suburbs. It's 6:47pm and you're out of milk, tissues, and you forgot to buy broccoli for your dinner. Oh shit it's the bodega van music. Brb, gotta walk down the block instead of spend 20m in a car, parking lot, store, line, back. As long as the margins are less than doordash it's worth using.
Cmon please tell me I have one original thought in this wide world.
Sorry we had grocery buses in Finland driving out to villages at least since the 80's. Not sure if they exist anymore
How about some sort of hot dog helicopter?
And veggies. Repurpose the heli to mass produce chopped salads from the sky
We need ice cream truck reform first. The damn things never stay still long enough for me to catch them
6C is dead
That's what I'm missing - we knew decades ago what happens after we hit 2C...
This, just like the current US collapse, it is just maddening to look at. Watching the bus drive off the cliff without even stepping off the gas and nobody batting an eye... I don't know how much more I can take.
(not an american btw)
Not a shock. We have not done enough.
If your mean "we" as humanity, yes. If you mean "we" like you and me, then no.
The main responsible didn't do enough and that's not us.
Only a few decided to ignore all the warnings, so money could be made.
Pfft, gulf of Amerika will solve it!!
*gulf of AmeriKKKa
We should put research into stratospheric aerosol injection. We need an insurance to limit climate change if emissions don't go down fast enough.
We know it works, and it's at least not catastrophically unsafe as we have already done it with container ships, and seen it happen at bigger scale with volcanic eruptions.
Let's fix the environment by fuckin it up more.
100% This, and also microbubbles in the ocean
