1.5°C climat goal is gone with 2024/2025 being every day being above that. A positive view of science says we are heading to a 2.7°C hell by 2100. Thought with current politics that is highly doubtful and we might already have that with 2050.

Especially fellow young people, i would like to hear your look apon the future, are you doing something now because you probably wont be able to do it in the future?

How will you imagine life will be like? Will you have to move because of the rising sea levels?

For me i see black. Its over and this is the coldest we will ever have it. I am enjoying somewhat livible summers and lukewarm winters (I remember when there was snow) as long as i can. The future is done for and im angry and sadend by all the people that dont care or actively fight against enviormental policies and living

    I think I’ll be dead before we see any life changing differences.

    Unlike those who came before me, I DO care, and I want us to turn shit around, so my kids don’t have to deal with an apocalypse, but, I’m not completely against a giant meteorite ending it all at any moment.

      Ditto, except the kids part, decided against having them just right in the middle of the 2008 financial crisis. I too wouldn’t mind a mass extinction event, as long as it’s quick.

      I mean, I’m living in hurricane alley. Very easy to see a future in which I’m through another Katrina or Harvey or Sandy. Only question is whether municipal and state services will be able to keep the lights after the next one.

      Could very easily see a future in which a chunk of the city loses power or transportation to such a degree that it becomes functionally uninhabitable.
