The next years are going to be fun… The world is burning while the fossil fuel industry is chugging along like everything is great as long as you buy enough co2 credits.

I’m scared in what kind of world my children will have to live in…

    And your point is? Are you arguing that alarmism isn’t called for? That everything is fine and we shouldn’t try to mitigate emissions?

    Or are you simply arguing that most weather forecasters know very little about climate change so… I guess I don’t know what?

    Again, what’s your point? Are you just flexing or do you actually have something useful to contribute to the conversation?

      Read my comment again. There is plenty of good statistical evidence for climate change, and if something is going to be bumped up to the front page it should be from a reputable source. Not “random nobody weather forecaster says thing”

        If you think there should be a climate change article from a more reputable source on the front page, then post one instead of uselessly complaining. Put up or shut up.

        I think every article that gets people to talk about the problems we are collectively facing is doing it‘s job.

        For some people this might be the trigger to have a deeper look into the topic, because a more relatable person for them is pointing out a problem.
