No. It’s the ramping up of a climate catastrophe humans have been causing for years and years.

It will not get better. It will only get worse.

This is not the worst summer we’ve had in 100 years, it’s the best summer we’ll have for the next 1,000.

Reason why they’re looking for life on other planets. This one will expire.

One years worth of decreased emissions isn't gonna make up for decades of complete disregard for our environment. If we don't take drastic measures to rectify this soon then we are in store for much more of this in the future.

Got covid from the UK , double vaxxed , and symptoms are wildly atrocious. Everyday I have different issues. I went from no fever to 102.4 in a couple of minutes. Blood oxygen dropped dangerously low and bounced back in a few minutes. Chills , cold sweats. My newest one is that my legs are so achey and sore it feels like they were beaten with a bat , just nonstop pain and can’t sleep. Anyone else experience these? Pretty sure I’d be hospitalized at a minimum without the vax
