If you’re an American, and you want to stop Trump, it’s important to be actively involved:

  • Check your voter registration - there’s been an active effort to purge voter rolls, and if you moved or changed name, you’ll need to register again anyways
  • Talk with people you know about voting for Democrats up and down the ballot. Personal endorsement matters.
  • Volunteer — it makes a real difference
  • If you can afford it, donate to the Biden campaign. Even fairly modest amounts of money from a lot of people add up to being able to hire staff and run ads.

      it does break down… into CO2 and water vapor (also a very powerful GHG).

      All levers need to be pulled, even the methane one, as they have “eq” forcing effects which are accelerating warming, which risks accelerating more tipping points. This isn’t a situation where we can pick and choose what not to do, and ending methane emissions from fossil fuels and animal farming sector is a low hanging fruit.

      My understanding is different https://theconversation.com/climate-explained-methane-is-short-lived-in-the-atmosphere-but-leaves-long-term-damage-145040

      Also, we cant afford any of it. As soon as we end up in a dustbowl situation a world war will likely be the result.

      Once nations are in wartime survival mode, carbon resuction will be out the window and I sincerely think we’ll turn the earth into an uninhabitable hellscape where everyone dies.

      Everyone. It may take a while for the last people to go, but I do mean everyone. People will construct elaborate bunker systems and try to make self contained farming centers, but the reality is that stuff is way harder than it looks and all it takes is one disease, one fire or power disaster, or one psycho to destroy the crops, whoch is likely after a hundred or so years and woop, everyone dies.
