Climate Scientists are Panicking - 1 Degree Makes a Big Difference
 Climate change is a real emergency, not a fake one like Trump's wall. The planet has already warmed one degree, and two degrees could be a civilization-ending event. It's killing people all over the world and is getting far worse far faster than we'd thought possible. And fossil fuel billionaires and their companies are accumulating money faster than ever... and they're spending some of that money to lie to us about how serious this crisis is. It's time to deal with climate change denial like the moral crime it is, strip the fossil fuel industry of its subsidies, and immediately tax carbon while rolling out green new deal. -Thom |
