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.

are you against worker co-ops?
Did you reply to the wrong comment?
At this point I’m convinced the only way to defeat Trump and his band of Nazis is to shoot them all in their fucking faces.
I'm 50:50 there will be another election. And I'm 50:50 on it being rigged if there is one.
Even if we have one, and it's not rigged, the Dems are proposing absolute jack shit for the people. So I don't see how they could even win a fair election.
We need a new party or a serious nation wide event if we want to put an end to projec 2025
Well, the Democrats won't be the ones to do it.
Holy shit, that second bullet point. The hundreds of thousands of people donating small sums of money are somehow less representative of the electorate than the two hundred people donating over a million dollars each, because reasons (just not mathematically sound ones)
The second bullet point is itself a paradox. By definition hundreds of small donations would represent the electorate better than individual large donors.
It's the 4th bullet point that gets me. "We should spend more time going to right-wing-dominated spaces (and also restaurants)". Because only right-wing communities are "real". Anything lefties do is elitist.
Is this verified? If so, congratulations, Democratic party leadership. Once again, you're planning on doing the exact opposite of what you should be doing. Their leftist voter turnout is going to plummet again while they try court Republicans—who often vote by party rather than policy.
The party should "embrace-patriotism, community, and traditional American imagery
Playing into nostalgia and nationalism. A strategy taken straight from the other party's playbook.
Democrats should "ban far-left candidate questionnaires and refuse to participate in forums that create ideological purity tests" and "move away from the dominances small-dollars donors whose preferences may not align with the broader electorate"
Condemning progressiveness, leaving their policies either to do nothing or slide the country even more into conservatism.
Abandoning their actual "small-dollars" donors (constituents) whose preferences may not align with ~~the broader electorate~~ the corporate donors.
They should "push back against far-left staffers and groups that exert a disproportionate influence on policy-and messaging"
Going to screw progressive politicians yet again, leaving only moderates and conservatives.
Candidates should "get out of elite circles and into real communities (e.g., tailgates, gun shows, local restaurants, churches)"
Actively and deliberately court voters from conservative hotspots.
The party needs to "own the failures of Democratic governance in large cities and commit to improving local government."
Either this means the goal is deregulation, or that they don't plan on addressing issues outside of rural areas. Maybe both.
“Meet me in the middle,” says the leopard.
People really need to show up to the primaries from now on. Tired of this shit.
Do they still have super delegates?
This is how you continue to lose. The first bullet point is correct. The rest is fail.
The first dot point is incorrect. They should not embrace that right wing nonsense.
Correct. Patriotism should be the result, not the means.
Could already have had two terms of Bernie (or Gore too), but humans, eh.
certain, specific humans, have a great deal more culpability than others.
less useful blaming billions when a couple dozen people engineered the choices for the rest of us, especially on climate.
the biggest problem opposition groups have nowadays is targeting the wrong people to oppose. I know who my enemies are and it's not so self defeatingly simplistic as humans = bad.
leftism
In a sane world Bernie would be considered a centrist.
Bernie was the compromise. now it's Luigi time.
he is, globally
Isn't he at least center left?
Not on the global scale.
Not on an American scale either. This bullshit about the "far left" is targeted right at him.
If the democratic machine would let him. He'd do a bang up job. But the DNC will mobilize all they have to stop him. Damn the cost. Just as they've done in the past.
Actually there is one way. And I think you know what it is.
That's what the voters have been trying to tell the DNC since 2016.
But the DNC's ears are plugged with corporate cash.
Ears? It's more like every orifice being plugged with corporate cash.
Really? Then why aren't there more progressives at every level of the Democrat party?
Maybe they should try telling Democrats at the voting booth.
is trough leftism like a trough urinal?
No, it's where you share your oats, brother
New flavour of leftism just dropped. I personally am more of a piss leftist.
