I find it fascinating how few people remember the time when Greenpeace was literally selling Russian gas.

No, no - it’s just as scientists predicted. In the worst-case “no-mitigation” scenario and with attempts from them to explain that +2 global will likely be +10 in peak temperature increase over land (read US, Europe, Asia). As in, both mean and std will increase, but without ocean’s mitigation over land.
Fucked is not the correct word - there is a +50 predicted before the end of decade in Strasbourg, where I am from. There is not a single building built there made to resist that kind of temperatures, nor a single tree or crop that could stand that for a day.
And it’s a relatively “safe” area as far as long-term projections go…
That show is about as “over” as the war in Ukraine on Feb 26th 2022.
Generally, I don’t like to gloat, but I did call that one ~ June 5th over on Reddit (https://www.reddit.com/r/france/comments/140qkwu/destructions_incursions_évacuations_dans_la/jmyndp3/?context=3; in French because it was on r/France).
It actually is much worse than it seems - I did a write up over on Mastodon to explain why and how (https://mastodon.social/@andrei_chiffa/110599724720727202). The TLDR is that cities taken by Wagner mercs will be hard to retake without leveling, all internal protection troops are either tied or were lost in Ukraine, and mercs themselves have nothing to loose and all the revenge to take.
It’s fediverse. You don’t like an instance, you create your own and defederate from the ones you don’t like. That’s the nice thing about it.
People that have ~1 week of ping time (as yours truly) are finally getting to their todo list item of checking alternatives to Reddit and making an account and first posts :)
@Kyoyeou@slrpnk.net seems to have given all the background info :)
