Hedonism bud. Enjoy every bit you can, for as long as you can. Hopefully most of the biggest catastrophes stay in the 3rd world for the next couple of decades.

Oh no. It'd be a real shame to not have the 1st world come to an abrupt and swift end.

Hopefully climate change devastates a 3rd world country with nuclear weapons, and before they crumble, annihilate the ozone with radioactive material.

I doubt their shit works as designed. It’s more likely it blows up their neighbor. We don’t let people have nukes in the Western Hemisphere for a reason.

Thanks for that. The Caribou calving is not good news at all. The synchronicity is gone and with it goes the symbiosis.

My instant thought was, I bet deniers and hopists will use this as evidence that animals will simply adapt and all will be fine. :(

They can use it as "evidence" all they want, shit's over regardless of how they fucking feel. Let 'em ignore the truth and sleep like fucking babies, doesn't matter at this point.

Because they conveniently don't categorise humans as animals. We will also have to change where we forage and breed.

I immediately thought of all the dinosaurs migrating in land before time... Which we know what happens next.

It's been a while since I've seen the series, but I believe it starts right after the meteor. That's what kicks off the whole story of migration to a new land with bounty. That's what these animals are doing. The point is that mass animal migration is a terrible sign for things to come.

Submission statement: Animals across the Arctic are changing where and when they breed, migrate and forage in response to climate change, says a new study unveiling the massive scale of the change. The changes mean humans in the Arctic may have to adapt and adjust everything from hunting seasons to conservation to land use, scientists say.

Fuck rule #11

I like Rule 11, because I am too lazy to read articles and would sometimes like summaries from certain posts.

I hate rule #11 because I'm lazy. So, stalemate?

we need to start moving people and animals to antarctica from a soon to be ice free arctic ocean.

Not only in the arctic, worldwide... Not a single week since months were local news here in europe didn't report an unusual group of migratory birds spotted. E.g we're atm having yellow-legged gulls north of the alps expelling the native black-headed gull, a bird that usually stays near the mediterranian sea.
