    That’s the problem. Everyone knows it’s legit at this point. But there are a lot of people who have a vested interest in pretending it’s not. Then as COVID taught us 30 percent of people just don’t want to be told what to do so will say fuck you and do the opposite just to piss you off.

      Yeah, I don’t understand why they can so peacefully ignore this like water wars are near to happen. When I say we need to find a solution on how to save water and keep it for emergency, their respond like “hell nah, still don’t happen today so I don’t care. Better buy fuckin Iphone 15 Pro Max just to piss you off because I have more money to buy it rather than invest save water solution for my family like you said”.

      Better find people with “off-grid passionate” commune to prepare early before it start happening rather than discussing, debating, or doing nothing bout that.

      A Republican my team has been lobbying for like 6 years now has moved from “doubtful of climate change” to “climate change is occurring, but we don’t know for sure our impact” - so yes, things are slowly moving toward sanity.

      Worth noting he drives an EV and has solar panels personally, and his public stance is 100% a reflection of his constituency and not his own views.
