Discussion of climate, how it is changing, activism around that, the politics, and the energy systems change we need in order to stabilize things.
As a starting point, the burning of fossil fuels, and to a lesser extent deforestation and release of methane are responsible for the warming in recent decades:
How much each change to the atmosphere has warmed the world:
Recommended actions to cut greenhouse gas emissions in the near future:
Anti-science, inactivism, and unsupported conspiracy theories are not ok here.

I don't necessarily disagree with you, but casual snack?
It's a small burger my guy
Then again I'm 6'4" so maybe my perspective is skewed
You're just looking at it from a different angle, that's all
I'm 6'2", wouldn't refer to it as a casual snack. When I hear casual snack, I'm thinking like an orange or a protein bar or something, not a whole-ass burger. Yeah, it's not massive, but not a small snack either
An orange weighs about 150 grams on average
A mcdouble is about 165
So yeah, casual snack
Weird comparison.
A mcdouble is about 400 calories. Whereas a 150g orange is about 75.
Not at all, they're about the same size and mass
We don't eat based exclusively off caloric value and you know it
I think he means in terms of a dollar menu item which sorta disapeared with the latest inflation.
I get that, just commenting on referring to a McDouble as a casual snack
yeah was more the frugal entree choice
