We’re not sugarcoating it—climate change is real, and its impact is already here.

Lives are at risk, communities are being destroyed, and the time for action is now.

All jokes aside it's really fucked up to see so many people on here celebrating murder. No one here is the judge of who deserves to live or die. That's the job of the AI algorithm the insurance company designed to maximise profits on your health and no one else
