This is just the beginning.
We need to act to mitigate and adapt to climate change now
And also stop goes for hikes in the middle of a heat wave.
The beginning was like 15-20 years ago.
… like 70
I mean the complex, long-term effects climate change will have on the Earth. We’re locked into change for the foreseeable future. At some point the temperature can stabilize, but the cascading impacts will continue for centuries even after it does.
So… we’re just at the beginning.
Pretty sure since the beginning of written history, wandering into the desert has never been portrayed as a safe activity, especially in the middle of a heat wave.
Climate change is real, but that’s like saying someone froze to death in the Artic due to climate change.
The broader context is that hundreds are now dying annually from heat in Nevada. Many people will die from heat waves, not to mention severe weather, flooding, famine, and human conflict caused by resource shortages.
Man, Lemmy is savage with its downvotes.
Also we need to stop racism, but like racism, climate change has little to do with this story
You know what people do in countries with lots of really hot weather? They take a siesta during the hottest part of the day because that’s just smart.
Ah yes. Increasing heatwaves obviously have nothing to do with climate change.
Climate change caused the weather, yes, but it didn’t make these people go out hiking in dangerous heat.
