Climate change is normal. There has always been fluctuations in Earth's climate. Scientists aren't concerned that the climate is changing, they're worried about how fast it's changing

Greenhouse gases are normal. The greenhouse effect is natural and in fact predates human existence. Again, scientists aren't concerned that there are greenhouse gases, they're worried about the amount of them that are being produced.

The USA makes up less than 5% of the world's population, but contributes 16.7% of global CO2 emissions

Current models suggest that average global temp will increase by 1.5-2.0°C by 2100, and 0.5-7°C by 2300. That doesn't seem like much, but even lowballing those estimates will be substantially more than it has increased in the past 5 million years

Temp change is not equal in all places. Polar regions warm faster than tropical. Factors like wind and ocean currents affect whether temp will change or not. Some seasons will change more than others. Just because the temperature was lower than average one year doesn't mean that global warming isn't real.

It's called climate change for a reason, it's not all just warming. Take Texas this year for example, they had stupid low temperatures for that area, which is definitely abnormal, but doesn't point to evidence that global warming isn't real, it just means that the atmosphere is doing some weird shit because of things happening

Basically, despite the overall global temp increasing, some areas will also experience extreme temps in seasons, like one area will have extreme low temps in the winter and/or extreme high in the summer

The change in temp also affects the water cycle, which causes some areas to have much wetter soil and some to have much drier soil

The change in climate and other abiotic factors in ecosystems have been forcing rapid evolution of organisms in affected environments

But, if organisms can't evolve fast enough, then we're looking at another mass extinction, particularly arctic animals that are being affected most by the climate change causing loss of habitat and resources, and extremely sensitive organisms like almost all amphibians, like frogs and newts etc

My brain: Fanfiction. Quite extraordinary amounts of fanfiction.

I have eyes

I can see

I am the smartest person in the room

Some cultures lack names For a color, you see. Hence good old Homer And his “wine-dark sea.”

A usage so quaint, A phrasing so old, For verses of romance Is sheer fucking gold.

Words are in flux And meanings they drift But the word purple You’ve given short shrift.

The concept of purple, My friends, is old And refers to a pigment once precious as gold.

By crushing up molluscs From the wine-dark sea You make a dye: Imperial decree

Meant that in Rome, to wear purpura was a privilege reserved

For only the emperor!

The word ‘purple’, for clothes so fancy, Entered English By the ninth century

.

Why then are voilets Not purple in song? The dye from this mollusc, known for so long

Is almost magenta; More red than blue. The concept of purple is old, and yet new.

The dye is red, So this might be true: Roses are purple And violets are blue
