You don’t even have to investigate the science or anything. Just use your own brain and eyeballs.
I was looking at old family photos of when I was a child, under 10. It was snowing on Christmas Day. On multiple christmases.
I can’t even remember a time in the last 2 to 3 decades it’s snowed correctly in winter let alone December and bang on Christmas. Sometimes it snows in may.
Also when we keep getting record setting heatwaves in summer… hello?
The cult of do your own research managing to not do their own research in the slightest.
When I was coming up learning about the long slow path of climate change, it was “We have to act now, because by the time you can readily see the effects with your eyes, we’ll be fucked cause it’ll be too late by then.”
Whelp here we are. All we can do now is mitigate the damage however we can.
Back in the 90s the though of the ozone hole in Australia being fixed seemed an impossibility to me but then it was solved with governments agreeing to ban CFCs etc
I thought perhaps we could fix the change in climate.
But then social media was birthed and destroy the minds of everyone starting the slow decline of society. Those with power able to utilise it for their own bidding. Putin et al.
Now the greedy are in such a position to ruin everything for short term gains.
We’re going to need something a bit more robust than that I’m afraid. People who fall for conspiracy after conspiracy are using their own brain and eyeballs. Even schizophrenics use their own brain and eyeballs.
If someone’s childhood photos show snow-free Christmases, is that enough for them to declare climate change a hoax?
People need to understand the scientific method better. What a hypothesis is, the importance of falsifiability. There is no truth in the universe, you can’t determine what is true and what is false by looking inside yourself, or by trusting your gut. There is no truth. That is the universe we live in.

Such a shame.

What I meant was people don’t even have to “believe” that science is a thing and climate change is a possibility or not. It just is.
By remembering back before there was multiple fires and storms per year.
