The world has experienced its hottest day on record, according to meteorologists.
The average global temperature reached 17.01C (62.62F) on Monday, according to the US National Centres for Environmental Prediction.
The figure surpasses the previous record of 16.92C (62.46F) - set back in August 2016.
Exxon has known the damage they were causing since at least the 80s and have spent absurd amounts of money alongside their competitors lobbying governments and paying scientists to keep the status quo. We had at least some evidence that burning fossil fuels was going to cause global warming at the turn of the 20th century.
What you’re saying isn’t entirely false, but it sure is bending over backwards to be nice to the capitalist societies that caused this problem. Also there aren’t any communist countries causing this problem, China is every bit as capitalist as the US in how their economy functions these days, they’re communist in name only. You’ve been influenced by capitalist propaganda friend.
Exxon’s research predicting the effects on climate were in the 70s. They knew about the dangers of leaded gasoline in the 20s, but suppressed that for decades too.
Humanity caused this problem, not capitalism. It’s not like commies never burn CO2 to keep things running.
Again oil companies will always protect their businesses at all costs, specially since they invested billions into exploring new oil sources. If governments are letting themselves being so influenced by lobbies, the problem isn’t capitalism, it’s the politicians.
Damn, you are powerfully ignorant.
The obsessive attempts to use communism like a cudgel just makes you sound like a indoctrinated tool who needs to open a book.
The red scare is over dude. And I don’t know if you noticed but no one is buying your uninformed bs.
So you speak for all the people now?

You’re a bit toxic aren’t you?
Oh I’m sorry you don’t like being called out when spreading misinformation. Especially when you are so unjustifiably confident in your falsehoods and unwilling to even attempt to learn the basics of what you are talking about. Misinformation is a plague and being nice to people spreading it is a disservice to everyone else. Your hurt fee fees mean less than nothing to me when you are making the world worse by spreading BS.
However If I was trying to be toxic I would say something like: Your mom and dad must be disappointed in themselves knowing that they failed so spectacularly as parents.
Good thing I didn’t!
Desinformation or something you don’t agree with?
