And a few centuries later, the chickens have come to roost.

"Clearly it's fake, look, they've been saying it for a century!"

If there's a penny to be made, Republicans will ignore all warnings, and go full steam ahead with the destruction of the planet; money and power are all they honor.

Warkworth has always been ahead of its time 🤣😂🤣😂

Demand? People wanted heat, light, transportation.

The scientists work for the various governments & obviously were told not to.

They did warn U.S. but we didn’t listen and some people still won’t listen. They’d rather have the White House pump sunshine up their asses.

#ArmageddonCapitalism 💲 >💚 = 🔥🌎 If you've made money instead of making the world safe, you think you'll survive a broken planet Evolutionarily, love is smarter than hunger, seeing causes and effects, predicting the future Culturally, we teach kids greed is virtuous... when it's immoral violence

Answer to your question: they do, but the money men are louder

Call it blame or accountability. If decades of warnings didn't work we need to be more assertive. Appeal to responsibility. Make it clear we all are in the same planet and weather is chaotic, selfishness won't shelter anyone against the effects of climate change.

OK But it's been 100 years and they STILL aren't listening. At what point would you consider shaming to be appropriate if not now?

"In a few centuries", qué optimistas!!!

Not at that time…

come on it says a few centuries. Surly we have a couple more? Right?

This was the fashion of the moment... The continent of Europe was put into full blown panic in 1911 when word came back from Antarctica explorers that a huge island of ice had broken away from the Ross ice shelf. Stories of end-of-the-world sea level rise gripped the news for months.

The March 1912 issue of Popular Mechanics had a 4 page article on it (339-432 if anyone wants to actually look it up), which cites Arrhenius and goes into detail about expected changes if coal consumption wasn't reduced or CO2 wasn't removed- though it's pretty upbeat, focusing on warmer weather!
