This has been a doozy of a year. And it's the best year so far blah blah. So how are you all coping? Does it hit anyone else like a bolt of lightning that probably I - we - won't die of old age?

What would I be dying of if not for old age?

[–] [email protected] -1 points 1 month ago (5 children)

Heat stroke due to rising temperatures. That is, if you forget to stay inside with the ac when it's 50 degrees celcius outside and go run a marathon instead (or you're allready very old or ill and susceptible to heat stroke)

Or drowning, because you're too stubborn to move away from the shore when sea levels rise enough to flood your house.

Or a falling tree on your head, because you don't believe in wheather forcasts and climate changed has caused more frequent wheather extremes.

There's plenty of unique challenges caused by climate change, but we can adapt to most if not all of them.
