Reply to We’re halfway to a tipping point that would trigger 6 feet of sea level rise from melting of the Greenland Ice Sheet by Bored-sideline
People are always talking about the melting ice sheets. But water expands when it warms up. Image the volume of the entire ocean increasing.

No... we can't halt it. What gave you the idea that we could?
What we can do at this point is mitigate it. I'd use a car wreck analogy but that would still give the incorrect sense that it's over at some point. Mitigating it would be like the difference between turning the thermostat being turned up to 80 instead of 95.

To add, the whole concept of subspecies is of course quite vague and iffy to begin with and constantly changes.
For example, until quite recently there were said to be as many as six different living subspecies of tiger – but now the Bengal, Siberian, South China, Indochinese and Malayan tigers have all been lumped into a single subspecies as the Mainland tiger, with only the Sumatran tiger still being recognised as a separate subspecies, now under the name Sunda tiger along with the extinct Bali and Javan tigers.
In a similar way, the African and Asian lions were previously regarded as different subspecies as well, but now they are instead divided into a northern subspecies which covers Asia and northern and western Africa, and a southern subspecies that covers eastern and southern Africa.
So it is very possible that the subspecies of the cheetah will be reclassified as well in the near future, especially since alls cheetah populations seem to very closely related from having gone through quite recent population bottlenecks.

I Dont think your kind survives due to the lack of weaponry and abundance of art degrees.

Toy firearms have to have a red tip in Australia. I’m not sure if that’s the owner’s or the retailer’s responsibility though.

Putin must be hovering over the nuke buttom as if it was a reset one. Can't blame, I would also want everyone to forget how pathetic I look if I was the one that fucked around and found out.

Reply to comment by Gicofokami in Russia Says Ukraine Using Long-Range US Artillery by TallAd3975
As much as I would like them to get F-16s, that does not appear possible. The F-16s use modern NATO gear that is too sensitive to risk falling into Russian hands. Hopefully, they can get fighter jets, but it will need to be something different.

Last week was the final warning from scientists. 2 weeks before that we were already past the tipping point.

Russia is literally waging war against Ukraine, and Iran is supplying their weapons. You can't beat that level of hypocrisy and deception in foreign policy.
