The remarkable concurrence of three dramatic climate events:
- Antarctic sea ice extent now over 2 million kilometers below the 1991-2020 mean
- global 2-meter surface temperatures breached the 1.5°C barrier for the third consecutive day
- WTF is happening to the world’s oceans, and in particular the North Atlantic? Ocean temperatures have been setting unprecedented daily records, spiking to highs that are shocking climate scientists, as they look for possible reasons.

It’s hard to not feel hopeless when reading things like this.
I figure we’re well and truly fucked at this point. Even if humanity went carbon neutral right now, we’d probably still be fucked, but I doubt we’ll see any actually meaningful action being taken until it’s blindingly obvious it’s too late – especially with how popular conservative politics are now in the “western” world.
Yeah, people are too caught up in their political and ideological struggles. There’s not even thinking about tomorrow, let alone next year. Out short sightedness is only being perpetuated by the capitalistic bullshit we’re already drowning in. We’re well and truly fucked.
