That’s definitely one was to put it.

This seems to be a rare individual who would not have done such except for his own misfortune with his back.

If I learned anything from this, is that most people cannot do any real changes either for health or environment. It has reinforced my cynicism

That's only really true if you're trying to make a huge change to society on your own. It takes being organized and working with others, as a group, to make the change happen.

It takes being organized and working with others, as a group, to make the change happen.

This seems to be broken in many areas if the world thanks to how much technology has changed, as well as two generations of social upheaval and mass migrations.

Nobody knows how to do this right now, the best that can be done is a day or two of activity in the larger metro areas.

I think people will find their way, but not this year

Discussion of climate, how it is changing, activism around that, the politics, and the energy systems change we need in order to stabilize things.

As a starting point, the burning of fossil fuels, and to a lesser extent deforestation and release of methane are responsible for the warming in recent decades: Graph of temperature as observed with significant warming, and simulated without added greenhouse gases and other anthropogentic changes, which shows no significant warming

How much each change to the atmosphere has warmed the world: IPCC AR6 Figure 2 - Thee bar charts: first chart: how much each gas has warmed the world.  About 1C of total warming.  Second chart:  about 1.5C of total warming from well-mixed greenhouse gases, offset by 0.4C of cooling from aerosols and negligible influence from changes to solar output, volcanoes, and internal variability.  Third chart: about 1.25C of warming from CO2, 0.5C from methane, and a bunch more in small quantities from other gases.  About 0.5C of cooling with large error bars from SO2.

Recommended actions to cut greenhouse gas emissions in the near future:

Anti-science, inactivism, and unsupported conspiracy theories are not ok here.
