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.

The last rebuttal with hard facts and links just made you spew a word salad of gaslighting while ignoring anything you were offered. I don't have any hope for you, I'm just annotating for other readers caught up in the theater.
Sorry reading is hard for you
You said people claim, "both sides are the same"
I said, "Your stupid argument that both parties are not the same is not something people make. If you go to a party and you want a drink, and you can only have coke or a bottle of dasani water, you are drinking a coke product. You do not get a choice eve. Though they are different."
You said, "I was talking about climate change" and then quoted your own false claim about people both sides-ing the argument
Are you malfunctioning?
You’re an embarrassing person. You should know that.
Compelling arguments to dismantle our claims
You don’t even deserve a compelling argument. That this other person is willing to slum, doesn’t mean you earned yourself a discussion. I laugh at fools, I don’t give them my time.
Also, horrible example, coke is not water, yet you both-sides it because "it is a coke product". Plenty of differences, a lot of them directly affecting people's health. Or perhaps as apt as you obliviousness of how bad of a gaslight it is.
Just say what you mean, "it is a coke product" is a metaphor for "it is influenced by American lobbyists" so you imply people should both-sides it and apply no nuance.
Hey congrats, we are almost through my first comment.
Now here is the rest that you keep ignoring
"We are at a point where we are literally running against cyberpedophile Nazis that are doing warcrimes, and establishing concentration camps and your “opposition party” is running on “restoring ACA tax credits”
Since Im just a dumb American who doesn’t understand anything, can you please explain to me why the democratic party STRUGGLES to beat what I mentioned above?
Why is their current platform not to “hold immediate trials for treason and warcrimes”, “dismantling concentration camps and locations missing migrants” " delivering free healthcare and education like 85% of Americans want" “taxing billionaires and corporations into submission”, “stopping support for the most hated country and leader in the world, Israel and Netanyahu”
Please explain"
