Something is afoot.

Danny Wallace: Diesel-smelling Top Gear host who threatened climate protestors misses butterflies.

    So if this is caused by climate change, and we pretty much say everything that is bad that is happening is due to climate change, what are some good things happening from climate change?

      Positivity and all sure, but it comes off a bit tone deaf to say something like “(millions are displaced/dying) At least we’ll have more consistent warmer climates in generally colder areas! Yay gardening!”

        I would just be slow to just believe all the things they say about climate change if they blame everything bad on climate change, but never give any sort of positive.

      what are some good things happening from climate change?

      Russia will get more warm water ports which is good (for them) also access to more natural resources in Siberia, by the same logic I assume Canada too.

      We don’t say everything that is bad is happening because of Climate Change.

      For example, Putins imperial Russia invading sovereign nations is completely unrelated to Climate Change. That just happens because they believe the USSR still exists.

      Neither is China’s genocide of the Uyghur.

        If it rains too much - climate change; if it rains too little - climate change. I get the idea the arguments but not everything bad with weather is climate change, and if there is bad there will also be good at some level. And also, russia didnt invade for that reason.
