I’m often frustrated by how little discussion is generated by Climate Catastrophe posts and how humanity’s most massive threat ever, where we face the real possibility of extinction, is overshadowed by daily in depth dives into issues which shrink to near insignificance by comparison.

What you say was exactly what Mr. Volodymyr Zelenskyy of Ukraine said to the assembled. He noted all the promises they made and broke while disasters went on around them for over 20 years.

Any hope we feel in our leaders is crushed by that reality. We need to redirect our attention on the ground while they sort out their "coordination" efforts. He agrees with Greta that it's all blah blah blah.
