We have known about global warming for more than 100 years. The industry and the oil and coal companies have been blocking, lying, cheating, and bribing their way all this time to make money. All of this is a well known and documented fact.
Damn I absolutely wanted to call BS on that “more than 100 years” bit, but you right. Svante Arrhenius, 1896. And then his theory got mostly confirmed in the 30’s, and now I’m more pissed off than when I thought we first started suspecting a link in the 60’s. The absolute fuck, humanity??
Yet people get mad at just stop oil, almost as if you tell everyone the world will end at climate change people will take it seriously and try to stop it from happening
The lead singer, Jonathon “Smash” Mouth was actually a leading climate scientist for 30 years before forming the band.
The band was actually started as a way to wake the world up. Their first hit single “walkin’ on the sun” was another hint for people to pay attention to the global climate.
The drummer, Al Gore, actually attempted to run for president in the year 2000. Although he was unsuccessful, he continues to try to fight climate change through documentaries.
Another fun fact is that Al Gore invented the internet in order to spread climate awareness, which is why there’s such a strong correlation between web growth and increase in ecological cocern.
Less wholesome is his other invention designed to monetize the internet: the AlGoreRithm
Like the Earth being round, people that were knowledgeable knew about it long before most people think. Arrhenius, a famous chemist, knew CO2 could warm the planet over 100 years ago.
Please. Climate change has been a well-lnown phenomena for a very long time. Scientists in the 19th century were warning that rising CO2 from human-caused emissions could harm the climate.
By reading the news? “All Star” came out in 1999. The term “global warming” was used in Congressional testimony in the late '80s; it was a known phenomenon.
