    I’m not going to argue against anything you’ve said, I’m not going to try to fact check it, & I believe to be largely correct.

    I also think its irrelevant.

    In the next few years (couple of decades) we are going to see increased wildfire burning of the boreal forests in the global north which is going to release (what I believe is technically called) “a catastrophe fuck-ton” of gasses into the atmosphere. We’ve tipped over the tipping point.
