mind you we were already at risk of a global increase of 2°C pre pandemic, pre isr*el’s most recent slew of bombings, and pre ai. we have accelerated in the most extreme possible way and genuinely need to take drastic action and no one is treating this with the severity it needs
There is a graphic where it says that data centers are going to put us up 2°C and already have started, you need to understand that 2°C is 35.6°F. in addition the bombardment that Israel is unleashing on Palestine, Lebanon, and Iran is adding to that. we are cooked, literally.
More like only now that climate change has reached a certain part of Europe.
Southern Europe burns every summer (especially Greece) and gets flooded every winter and no one gives a fuck.
genuinely hard to stomach, that in addition to all their crimes, the fact that isr*el has been relentlessly bombing palestine, releasing tonnes of Co2 in the air & has absolutely had a hand in an accelerating global warming, yet there are not and will be no consequences for them
Been seeing comments about Norway having so many fans, while Senegal barely has any.
That’s because Senegalese supporters were not given visas to come to the U.S.
Even before a ball is kicked, Western/European teams already have an unfair advantage.
“How did we go from paper straws to data centres?”
no one listened to the environmentalists who said unchecked corporate pollution was the bigger issue.
When it was Qatar 2022 BBC, Sky News and ITV News were doing segments for 40 days and 40 nights about human rights abuse and campaigning for alcohol to be allowed during the World Cup. But USA is refusing to allow a referee and Iran’s team in and they’ve gone quiet. Cowards
I never want to hear a single soul say ‘keep politics out of sport’ because this World Cup disaster has shown that is exactly what they are not doing. FIFA and America should be embarrassed.
This is utter bullshit. When Indonesia refused to grant the Israeli under 17 team visa’s for the 2023 U-20 World Cup, FIFA stripped Indonesia’s hosting rights and moved it to Argentina. So @FIFAcom can stop with the lies.
Y’all’s president inconveniencing an entire city to watch a basketball game while gas is slowly creeping up to $6/gallon and two bags of groceries cost $200 is insane to me. A blatant fuck you to all of us.
