Do Israelis think they can treat climate change like Gaza and pound it into submission? What the fuck.
when the Polish right is better than another countries left on an issue, you know there’s some truly special brainworms going on.
I want to meet the 15% of the "left" at home who think climate change isn't real just to ask some questions.
Why yes, I did name my lead pipe “just asking questions”.
I think they believe their own bullshit racist myth about how they "made the desert bloom" or something
probably like the anti-science haredi wing taking over.
This is interesting, but it also massively underplays the radical differences between the left and the centre/right on this issue. Left parties are the only parties that have even remotely plausible plans for dealing with this, because they understand that to deal with climate change will involve radically remaking society. While those in the centre might say that they consider climate change to be a major threat, their actual approach to the problem amounts to little more than soft denialism
We can clearly see how far each country is down the culture war pipeline.
I don't understand why the UK is so good on this, relative to US and Oz
Imagine the horror of being told the weather is somehow getting worse
Remember last summer when all the animals were dying from extreme heat + drought?
Yeah, shit was grim. It’s going to get worse.
I was joking about the “British weather” meme. The climate was/is actually rather suited for people.
i hate to credit thatcher with anything positive, but we have had an actual scientist as prime minister who made fixing the ozone layer a big thing for her, treated it with an proper chemical understanding, and even dragged fucking REAGAN into creating climate regulations. i think the most insane ruthless neoliberal of all time taking pretty big climate action really moved the overton window, plus we have just a much more serious veiw of experts/academics than the US seems to (its not perfect mind, but we're not like immediately reactionary against them)
Maybe cuz UK is an island and doesn't want to be swallowed by the sea (to be hyperbolic).
That's the most worthless graph I've seen in a while, and I regularly have to wade through engagement metric reports for twitter posts.
lmao always find Australians who don't believe climate change is a threat so funny... buddy your house is one of the first places that's going to become entirely uninhabitable by human beings
In my professional opinion, an Australian house is already uninhabitable as far as I'm concerned. If they're already living in that spidery heat hellhole and they're okay, they're like "oooiii what's the wourst that cewd 'appen m8? Some heat? Auuuu naaaauuuuur~"
that's true... perhaps anglo-australians are already halfway through speciation into some kind of red, flaky Beast anyways. don't need skin where we're going!!!
So all the countries most in denial are settler colonies.
Right. It's not climate change they see as a threat, it's climate refugees. Instead of getting ready to fix climate change, they're getting ready to murder refugees. Instead of reckoning with where all their cheap consumer goods come from (the labor of the people they're getting ready to murder), they're arming themselves to the teeth, joining the coast guard, and looking for rafts to flip.
It's almost like there's a kind of ecological knowledge you can only get of a place by living there thousands of years.
When I take over the world, abolish the press, and rule with an iron fist I'm pointing at this survey as evidence that humanity is not able to recognize threats to it's existence and, like a toddler or a particularly dumb airedale, must be managed for it's own safety.

Ok what's the deal with illegitimate Korea, frogs and
Why are they so much better than the rest of the international community on this issue
My theory for France is the fact they use a lot of nuclear power and comparatively less fossil fuels than other countries makes it easier to acknowledge the issue and feel good about doing better than other countries without actually changing things. I think this is similar to how Québec pretty consistently polls more environmentalist than other Canadian provinces (95% of electricity comes from hydro because we have a lot of rivers)
is venice not sinking as we speak? italy is gonna get hit hard I think. I would imagine korea too. france idk, I will never understand the french on anything.
Canadian liberals the worst liberals as i suspected.
Only real countries count, sorry Israel.
