How anyone can continue to deny climate change is beyond me. Yet they're out there, including in positions of influence.

The winters here in Sweden are getting weird now. In the past we used to have pretty stable winters with temperatures around 5 degrees F and below and it did not change much for the entire winter. But now the temperatures are going up and down like a yo-yo each week. We get tons of snow and then it can suddenly melt and it feels like spring for a week and then it becomes winter again the next week with 5 degrees F or so. The climate is weird now for sure

Watching these kinds of videos and seeing how many views they get compared to YouTube trends, I feel like Don't Look Up is kind of a documentary that must be shown in every school
@operatordeadpostabandoned
You have done well to describe the situation, no shock value, no outrageous claims, just common sense, backed by science and thought, thanks mate!!

Literally every single person on Earth needs to sit down and watch this, maybe even twice. This is what is important, TO US ALL

I love that in the U.S., we’re ruled by people who won’t live long enough to be bothered by climate change.
@benedikTgd
I live in eastern austria, and I remember 20 years ago, we had to dig paths through the snow in our garden. 30-50cm of snow was not too uncommon. We got zero snow this winter.

Finally a climate change explanation which does not leave any room whatsoever for the simplistic argument of 'if it is global warming, why is it getting colder?' There is more energy in the system which gives rise to more extreme weather events within the scope of that climate.
@kooooons
There's only one thing I was missing from this talk: Climate Change is not something that happens one day and then everything is bad. It started happening a long time ago and will continue to happen for a long time to come. How it is today, is the best it's gonna be for a century. People in the 80s started arguing about how we should protect the climate to save our kids and we today still say that. But we are those kids, and our kids will have it worse. We only get to choose how much worse.

I served in the USCG and was a plankowner of Healy, the medium science ice breaker. During her shakedown cruise in '00 we made the Northwest Passage lickety split. Without much ice except north of Barrow. The scientists and the officers (all combined probably over a century or more of experience in the ice) were astonished, then morose when the realization set it. I knew beforehand what was happening, that trip crystalized it.

Food production is going to be a much more difficult task as weather fluctuations affect frosts, freezes, rainfall, damage from storms, etc. People freaking out about egg prices shows we aren’t really pull yourselves up by your bootstraps kinds of folks. There’s lots of things we take for granted that we shouldn’t.
@seth2854
one thing I've noticed in Denmark is that our winters with full day frosts and cold snowy days are practically gone. we barely have a month collectively anymore with night frosts. I remember as a kid having snow days and minus degrees (Celsius) in the middle of the day. This year so far I haven't seen a single full day frost. D:
@timomeeuwisse4693
I'm Dutch, there is a famous tradition here that translates to "the eleven city tour". It was this major event take took place when our rivers froze over. A lot of people would ice-skate from city to city on those rivers as a part of this massive event. It has not happened in my entire life and i don't think it will. Luckily oil shareholders made profit in the meantime so that roughly evens out.
@Yachtnerd
It is so sad. We knew in the 1970's everything we needed to know to keep the planet a good place for us to live. I have always felt that was our last good chance to choose a different economy, one that was not based on blind growth at any cost.
@kevinmahernz
In the Gold Coast of Australia, we've had a lot of rain this year so far. A friend of mine in his 80s who has lived here since the early 80s has been recording rainfall through those years, and told me the other day that we've had the most rain this year in all his years of record keeping.

I live in Johannesburg, South Africa, which is around 1700m above seal level. According to almost everyone I know, this has been the most humid summer we have ever had. And it shows in the plants and insects (we have mosquito's from Asia here this summer that we have never had before).
@Sorae90
I live in southern Germany at about 600m above sea level. As a kid our winters were cold and full of snow. We don't get to see snow anymore. We had bursts of high temperature in January this year to 16°C and the following week it was back to -6°C. It's fascinating and terrifying at the same time.
@jimwoodard64
I used to fly in and out of DFW (Dallas/Fort Worth) regularly. Once, I was sitting next to a pilot, and I asked him why it was so turbulent there. He said, "Look out the window and tell me what you see." I said, "Lots of houses." He responded, "And what's in the back yard of most of those houses?" I replied, "Pools." He said, "yes, and that's changing the humidity of the air, creating pockets of humidity that is effecting the density of the air." Now I was a weapons guy in the military, and relative humidity and air density are part of the fire control equation for guns and missiles, so I understood what he was saying. We are changing the Earth in small ways individually that are adding up to large ways as a collective.

With a few exceptions here and there, winters here in eastern West Virginia are a ghost of what they were before the year 2000. Things that used to be designated "April - October" are now often times March - November, it rarely snows in December and it snows a lot less than it used to in February and early March.
