    What difference would it make to say it? Everyone that cares already knows. Plus, even if emissions stopped today, hurricanes will continue to be bad for decades. So no point in saying the same thing that everyone knows and will still be bad even if it is fixed for the rest of their life. Just explaining it pragmaticly

      Most people don’t actually know that level of detail about how fossil-fuel-induced warming affects temperature. Having that be part of the public discourse makes it easier to move off fossil fuels

          I think everyone would be a lot happier if it was fossil companies with billions of dollars not fossil fuel companies

      I think keeping it in people’s minds is useful. Otherwise it’s easy to get wrapped up in your day to day life. I’ve found that climate stories are often under reported here or categorised as another issue.
