Seems too simplistic

Even as the US hits record setting lows, the temperature of the planet as a whole remains above average. If it’s -20°F across the entire US, how hot must the rest of the planet be?

-20F? Where?
That was hyperbole, I don’t know if it’s been -20°F across the entire country at any one time, but there was a couple years ago when we had that big freeze and Texas almost died
But also gets that low in my own city sometimes
For being so smart, we are so dumb
It’s not just that we’re stupid. We’re also selfish.
Many are proud of their stupidity.
And their selfishness.
Too many people do not understand the difference between weather and climate.
The solution to global warming, then, is clearly to just set up a massive ring of fans all pointed in the same direction in a ring around the North Pole, to keep the jet stream going
Not the worst geoengineering idea.
Not a good idea, but I’ve heard worse
That is the worst geoengeniering idea. https://whatif.xkcd.com/162/
Isn’t that literally just a thinly veiled Futurama reference? Like, there was an episode where planet Express was sent out to fetch ice from Haley’s comet to dump in the ocean to combat global warming which fails and they end up just pushing the earth farther away from the sun to cool things down?
It’s mentioned in the article.
Whoa whoa whoa, hold up: it’s NOT foreigners?!?
Funny that this post would show up next to this one: https://lemmy.world/post/10902481
Al Gore and many others said there wouldn’t be any ice at all in the polar regions by 2013.
Obviously climate change it happening, but the computer models they keep showing have been proven to be bullshit over and over.

Yep that’s a shit post alright
Y’all ready to be gouged for survival items until money becomes irrelevant?
P.S. ‘A Capitalist Apocalypse’ would be a fun title for a political comedy song.
You can’t use logic with these people, they’ll try to burn you for being a witch.

So that’s why that is
If those people could read they’d be very upset.

A normal winter started in October, maybe mid November, not early January. This was my first brown christmas, and that worries me.

Smack in the middle of Canada, winters colder than Alaska, summers nearly as warm as Hawai’i. We already get very little rain, and like the rest of the Great Plains, we’re on track to being a desert (temperate in our case). We already lost most of our topsoil in the dirty 30s, and there’s plenty of sand just below in the glacial till.
I’d rather that not happen.
