NASA called the soaring heat “part of a pattern of increasing global temperatures, as a result of human activities, mainly carbon dioxide emissions.”

Totally disagree. Check out MN and MI as examples of what happens when people are directly involved.
Corporate democrats aren’t going to make the sacrifices needed to stave off the worst of climate change, they have reelections to worry about.
We’d need to roll back so many modern comforts in order to actually make progress in making sure we don’t destroy the planet and no one is lining up to be the boogie man who takes AC away from millions.
I hate to say it, but most people will only care when climate change personally affects them, just like COVID. Until then it’s heads in the sand all around.
So… uh… why aren’t you trying to replace them with further left democrats?
Maybe it’s a dumb question to ask someone who already feels defeated, but I’ve seen it done.
lol for real? Just look at the 2016 and 2020 elections. our two party system will never allow for far left politicians to be elected. The DNC will ensure that only those who are beholden to their corporate overlords get on the ballot.
I’m looking locally, where I can make a difference.
You a member of your local DNC? If not, I’m assuming you have no idea how the process works.
When the people voting for the party’s platform are further left, the party’s platform moves further left.
Edit: downvote away, but it’s better to let me know what I said that was incorrect.
The biggest problem is that even if far left politicians get elected locally, it’ll be years before they get into positions where can enact the changes we actually need to stave off the worst effects of the climate catastrophe.
By that point it’ll have been too late for a long, long time. We need people who will act now and they don’t exist.

I guess I don’t just want to give up.
