We all know climate change is wrecking our shit. Even deniers know it on the inside, they just don't want to admit they are wrong. We have a mess on our hands and it needs cleaned; we have a responsibility to make it happen.

I'm aware that it's a handful of companies causing most of our carbon emissions and things won't change until they stop. What we can do is implement laws that force them to pay for those emissions, force them to operate clearly. "Like that'll ever happen" is what too many people on here say and yeah, those companies love that attitude. As long as we keep naysaying any proposed solutions, not voting or even participating in politics directly (especially local politics) then shit won't change. I have only the highest respect for individuals out there fighting for the change we need, even if that means it inconveniences others.

I think we're all sick of the record breaking heat and extreme weather every year. We need to take that anger we feel to push for change. I plan on one day running for mayor for my city because I want to make us green and climate proof it. I feel we owe it to our children and their children.
