So apparently we are now in the find out of the fuck around part of climate change. My only question is if Florida is still going to retain it’s electoral votes once it’s fully submerged underwater?

It’s grim comfort but afaik there’s no scenario currently where life on earth, and probably people, will be wiped out. Even if most of us die someone will live, and hopefully remember us, and do better next time. This isn’t some eco-fash “humans are the virus” thing. Just, we’ve been around for 450k years, and I think even if we really, really, really fuck this century up it won’t be our last chance.
Even if it gets to a point where everyone here and everyone we know is fucked, it’s still worth trying to fix things and preserve knowledge for the benefit of the people who come after us, because there will almost certainly be people after us. It might take a thousand or ten thousand years for things to calm down, or they might figure out how to thrive on a hot chaotic earth, we can’t know right now. But it’s not over, even if it ends up being over for us.
