Can’t believe you cut the other half out
As someone who read the book and is hunting down an original for less than 8 thousand euros, I can safely say that this would definitely be in the book.
8000 euros for a book??☠️💀
First print from 1949, good condition. Pristine condition is 16k 💀
I've read it! Or have I? There's a lot of discussion around it, but I listened to the audiobook, so I'll let you decide for yourself, but at least I know the full story.
Assholes have never even heard of a thesaurus. Plus, we now have AI at our backs. Behold, what ChatGPT ginned up for me a second ago:
- Global heating
- Planetary warming
- Atmospheric instability
- Rising planetary temperatures
- Ecological overheating
- Weather system disruption
- Global temperature shift
- Planetary imbalance
- Atmospheric warming trend
- Earth system disturbance
- Heat-driven weather extremes
- Long-term planetary warming
- Rising global heat levels
- Ecological destabilization
- Planet-wide heat surge
- Environmental overheating
- Temperature-driven disruption
- Global heat imbalance
- Accelerated warming of Earth
- Planetary-scale weather disruption

Ha ha ha, nice try. This is like trying to convince someone you never fart. Proof of idiocy.
1984 Much???

It sure would make reports a hell of alot more interesting.
When you ignore a problem, it goes away.
Dark future.
