Gaslighting about climate change runs on fossil fuels.

Sue the fossil fuel companies into oblivion and confiscate ALL of their cash and assets.
It’s only fair…and the statute of limitation on fraud is from “date of discovery”.
That includes the effing Saudis.

Thermohaline circulation defines habitability and thus the distribution of humanity across the planet. For many decades, geophysicists have posited that if this circulation slows, everybody may have to move and a lot of people will go hungry. Factors causing the change relate to human activity, so the question is why this issue never reached headlines. Moreover, it has remained hypothetical even as large data points confirming the hypothesis whizzed by. Imagine if you lived in the southeast of the US and you lost air conditioning in the middle of muggy summer. Suddenly, you are ready to pay the airconditioner repairman anything. You are not going to try to stick it out for a few months. Well this airconditioner cannot be quickly repaired and may take thousands of years to restore even if human activities ceased to generate carbon.
