I'm fed up. I don't care what Hamas does. These people need help and Israel is letting them die horrific deaths by the tens of thousands. Not in one destructive attack, but day after day for month after month. Their cruelty far outweighs what was done to them. Maybe, if they can't stop this slaughter from their side, Israel doesn't deserve the right to govern itself. Netanyahu = Hi**er?

Here's the facts:
Climate change is here. It's too late to reverse it. It's time to accept that and decide how we're going to survive in this new reality.
The melting of polar ice has shifted mass to the equator. This shift will exacerbate tectonic activity. Rising sea temperatures may kill the Gulf Stream rotation.
Rising temperatures will create mass famines and refugees will be moving away from the equator and to the borders of more temperate countries. They will not watch their children starve while more fortunate countries dither over "immigration".
And most important? All of this is already happening.
So stop arguing, accept the reality and move on to prepare for these changes.
And have the humility to be grateful you were born where you were born.
