Pretty funny that people now say these fires and heatwaves are “due to the climate”. Have they been living under a stone? Meteorologists have been predicting exactly this situation for YEARS! Folks, this is manmade, CO2-based climate collapse happening right in front of us. And it will get worse.

    No no, not allowed to bring politics into this apparently.

    Fucking bullshit, I vote green because no one else seems to really care.

    Whether that makes sense depends a lot on which country. Some Green parties (Notably in the US) behave as if they're intentional spoilers to make the worst viable candidates win. Other countries, it makes a lot of sense.
