You should have started panicking several years ago but you can try to get caught up now!

I was panicking 40 years ago, when I started researching this stuff in college. Tried to warn people, and they laughed at me. It really sucked.

Global warming is for sure making things worse. However, it's really because of a bad El Nino season and it will be the same next year. Something similar happened in 2015/16.

The gulf stream doesn't exist anymore thanks to global warming.

Rapid swings between the polar vortex and whatever this is right now are about to get a lot more common, I think.

Pretty sure the gulf stream exists. You can see it here.
