Global warming.

What do you think about it? I think people must do mething. The world needs help. I see in Italy (I live where I can see very well Alps) that glaciers are smaller than once, and 4 or 5 years ago it snowed a lot every weinter. but now...
And you? What do you see of bad in your country? What do you think about global warming?

I think you'll find anything's fair game on OWF. Even raping and skinning other people's Mothers.

Global warming is badlulz.

There was no snow in Aberdeen roundabout where I live, apart from the countryside and a little bit of snow and frost.

Studying environmental science, I get to keep up with the global warming science, and it’s quite worrying. As important as I think it is for reusing, recycling, energy and water saving, insulation and considerate consumerism to be staple behaviours for every person, I’m not convinced we can fight off global warming. There’s too little being done to reduce anthrogenous emissions from the business‐as‐usual levels, and we’re too close to various tipping points that will exaccerbate the process. We’re not going to end the world, but there’s a lot of human and environmental suffering down the line before nature and society adapt to the altered conditions.

That said, we should retain our ability to make jokes about it as long as keep acting sincerely. Humour doesn’t have to belittle an issue, it can make it more approachable.

I live somewhere that will be environmentally unaffected by GW, but I still want to walk up to Al gore and go:

Global Warming is serious business, I have a friend from Bel Air, LA (though I haven't seen him in awhile) he says that we have to watch out for it, although being an asshole and not caring is fine too.

The problem is, we let the temperature go up by 1 degree and all the fucking plants keel over and die.

Or something.

If global warming is happening, no one down here notices. It's 90 degrees each day.

If it gets much warmer the moles will become confused and start living as surface dwellers.

What the voles will do is anyones guess.

Somewhere in all that self indulgent crap Gore spouted was a serious message. Shame he's a fucking hypocrite for traveling around the world spewing fumes in his own little private jet and successfully managed to block legislation to curb greenhouse gas stuff when he was vice president.

What I do know is if this continues England will be as cold as Russia in winter. Fuck that!

I find it fascinating that you have precisely one kind of weather dedicated to temperature, one devoted to precipitation, and one uniquely dealing with wind speed.
