Reply to comment by ceiffhikare in anyone else miss the snow? it's currently 35°F and raining. by mossybishhh

You don’t understand what you’re describing, we aren’t coming out of an Ice Age we’re seeing a global temperature increase that is leading to crop losses, drought and ecological destruction. The planet is more than warm enough as it is.

There is where we disagree. I LIKE this and every single other warmer winter, less snow to shovel, doesnt cost as much to stay alive and thawed out, and best part of all, fewer entitled asshole flatlanders coming up here to ski!

I’ll try to make this simple for you, climate change means a very large amount of people are going to die in the next few decades and it also means things like food and fuel are going to become extremely expensive. Probably a lot more expensive than you can afford. You should not welcome the coming apocalypse but you’re a woodchuck so yeah.

Hell yeah i am and you aint gonna shame for it, lmfao.

Sure people will die, they are dying in this bs LSC society we got going on rn too and while we could change how society works to fix it we are doing F-all about it in any meaningful ways. IDC and wont be shamed for not caring about coastal communities. Food? meh we will see but new areas will open up as old ones become unviable. Crops have and will change and we can do a lot with genes to help adjust as things change.

Your ignorance is astounding and I’m sad to say I’ve seen a lot of it in the state. seems like something that comes about when people live isolated and don’t see outside of their own little town.

Dude.. gtfoh with that not seeing beyond your town bs, we live in the information age and i dont need to waste time or money traveling to learn about the greater world. that is so 19th century thinking, lol.

I know, im terrible for not wanting to wreck the developed economies of the world; that i dare to think humanity should ,yes do what we can to move away from FF, *also adapt to the changing planet instead of foolishly trying to lock it into one static climatic state forever.

You talk about adapting to the changing planet but we can’t, climate change is not a benefit. You talked about climate change opening up parts of the world for agriculture but you’re making a big assumption that those areas are suitable for agriculture. The reality is we are fucked on a global scale the upside is New England is projected to be one of the better places to ride it out. That said if you have land preparing for the future would be a good idea, get some fruit and nut trees in the ground if you don’t already have some and get a big garden going. I don’t know about you but the price of produce is becoming problematic so I produce my own.

As a matter of fact yes, cheaper to live day to day too! I would love nothing more than to be able to afford to build a net zero home here on the small bit of land i got, cant get a loan but hey NETO will come and dump 3k into my POS trailer,lol. Cant really go green until i get something on a foundation here but even then it wont be to save the planet, it will be to be free from paying for energy i(we) need to live a modern life.

I'm curious what you're going to do for fun during 6 months of 40-degree weather.

The same things i do for fun any other time of the year. Game, surf the internet, build the occasional pile of brush and set it on fire. Not really an outdoors person anymore.
