Oh come off it-- we’re only just now catching back up with the 18-freaking-80s? We can do better than that. Come on, I wanna see RECORD-BREAKING warming this quarter /clueless
Don’t worry, the WaPo headline writer fucked up. They contracted “the fastest measured since the start of the dataset in 1880” to “the fastest since 1880”, when they are very different.
Climate change was going at its slow natural pace in the 19th century, they just didn’t measure it in this particular way yet. Ice cores show us climate change history over a much longer period.
No, we’re just competing with other mass extinctions at this point. Asteroid impacts, lakes of lava the size of continents, the entire world choking on toxic fumes at once, that’s the scale of disaster that capitalism is. Yellowstone can’t touch this.
