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

    Whoever said the consequences would be “minimal?” I’m saying they won’t be apocalyptic. It’s not the literal end of the world, as so many people are fretting about. People are deciding not to have children because they think humanity’s going to go extinct in a generation or two.

    I’m not saying the world will definitely be a “Mad Max inferno of devastation and death”

    Well there you go, then.

      People are not having kids because they believe their children will be worse off than they are; that persistent inflation, natural disasters, famine, resource wars, actual wars, austerity, mass migrations, fascism/feudalism are all but guaranteed for a majority of humanity over the next century.

      Barely anyone believes or cares about us going completely extinct.
