This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

Is this like a timer for when we can start fighting climate change?

We got plenty of idiots in our generation too. We're not off the hook

Boomers started fighting climate change decades ago. (see Al Gore)

[–] Blackmist@lemmy.world 7 points 1 year ago (1 children)

No, because it was never about the boomers.

[–] GiddyGap@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago

Many boomers aren't helping, though. Especially the ones in the US.

Nah. Gen X are basically boomers so gotta wait that one out too.
