Bro I'm going to miss the snow in Oregon, I always loved when we had a snow day. Sad Cheese
Stop using diesel fuel to put fires out . Just a tip.
Are you kidding me? No one can change the climate. Watch what happens when you try … https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lyXAPG4Xh5M
History as evidence, a cult would only think that humans can change this, let alone Americans.
This sub human is a horrible governor. She only looks out for herself and continues to receive money from you know who. She won't talk about national forests burning but wants to investigate private timber companies. She is a brown turd.
You don't provide leadership & biden's been in the whitehouse for 7 months, not a few years. God what a clown.
You people always say all calamities impact the black indigenous peoples the most just hold on a minute it is coming your way disaster is heading for you a Lake of Fire 🔥 SUNDRY TIME is on the Earth 🌎
The only way you will change the climate from a human stand point, is to kill off 80% of the population, and destroy 80% of the infrastructure humans built, returning lands back to their open, dirt, grass, and tree lands. Building, roads, houses, etc., change the flow of air and moisture. Thus, climate change will not change by restricting people from the minor things that affect the climate in whole. Cars and fossil fuels are NOT the root cause.
Like heat waves never happened before
"taking action" means doing something that people think is good, while instead its just another way to screw us all over.
Sadly, you don't have to look at Climate Change to see how well this governor handles adversity. Look no further than the years long rioting and doing NOTHING about it. By doing nothing, it becomes an unspoken agreement and support. Not very impressed with this governor.
Don’t forget Fox News and many politicians claim it is a HOAX???🤔
While Big OIL, Big Pharma and the rest of the donors watch smiling, quietly rubbing their hands together from afar.🤑
People actually believing this bullshit propaganda? Oh wait……..
Taking action on this would be obvious offering well paying important jobs to the public and low income people creating more firebreaks and fail-safes but I don't think that will ever happen sad to see even climate change and people's safety from fires and bad air quality has never been anything more than a political talking point and a monopoly for the government entity's that are involved.
Kate brown doesn't know or cares about anyone outside of portland… hell she made it so math, reading and writing doesn't matter anymore in school
Somebody forgot to rake the leaves….
Says Dumb Dumb Rump
Kate brown needs god, this is not about climate change, god showing us this is his land and peoples act like science is god when it isn’t god at all, there’s one god and hope he seeing this, and I leave this on his hand, so much peoples are becoming devils.
WHAT A BUNCH OF HORSESHIT.
Start planting more trees, and stop cutting down old forests and hardwood.
Make more holding ponds. It affects everyone you race baiter
Ya as she has a bunch of lights on her. Doe she have solar panels on her house and at the capital ?
FOREST FIRES ARE NOT CAUSED BY CLIMATE CHANGE, STOP FEAR MONGERING
האם המחשבות שלנו שורפות את העולם? מציפות אותו בשטפונות?
לישראלי הממוצע יתכן שקשה להבחין בין חם מאד לממש חם, אבל חשוב שנדע שאנחנו בעיצומו של גל חום קיצוני, שעל פי מומחי אקלים לא נראה כמותו מאז שנות השמונים. ואם לא נשנה משהו, זה רק ילך ויחמיר. בשנת 2019 הכריזו אלפי מדענים של האו"ם, כי העולם עומד להגיע לנקודת אל-חזור אם תחול התחממות עולמית של 1.5 מעלות צלזיוס נוספות. מאז ועד היום משבר האקלים הולך ומדרדר. מה הטבע רוצה מאיתנו?
כל הפרה של האיזון צריכה לעורר בנו סימני שאלה עד כמה אנחנו, בני האדם, גרמנו לה, והאם יש בכוחנו להשיב את האיזון בטבע אל קנו. אנחנו בעיצומו של משבר קריטי בכדור הארץ, וזהו לא רק משבר אקלים.
אנחנו עדיין חיים באשליה שאם נפסיק לשרוף דלקים ולייבש אדמות, נעצור את התדרדרות האקלים. זה פשוט לא נכון.
המחשבה של האדם היא הכוח הנעלם והעדין ביותר, אבל עם זאת הוא החזק ביותר. דווקא המחשבות שלנו הן שמשפיעות ביותר על החומר, מפני שהן הכוח הקרוב ביותר לרוחניות. כאשר אנחנו חושבים בצורה אגואיסטית, מתוך שנאה ורצון לנצל את כל מה שסביבנו לתועלת עצמית, אנחנו פוגעים בטבע כולו. כאשר אנחנו מתחברים יחד למען הטוב הכללי של כולנו, יש לנו כוח משותף עצום שיכול לרפא את הטבע.
אבל השינוי צריך להתחיל מהלב, כשהשכל הוא לא יותר ממנגנון תמיכה לרצון הלב. קשה לשנות את הלב כאשר המכות עוד "רחוקות" מאיתנו כביכול, אבל כאשר הן תגענה והאדם ירגיש שהגיעו מים עד נפש, כבר לא יהיה מקום לפלפולים.
לכן חשוב שנפנים, עולם מאוזן זה אדם מאוזן, ואדם מאוזן הוא זה שמרגיש אחראי לטבע כולו, שמבין שדווקא הוא, כיצירה עליונה מדרגות הדומם, הצומח והחי, הגורם היחיד שמפריע לאיזון הדרגות הנמוכות ממנו. האדם צריך לקרוא נכון את מקומו במערכת, להבין מהי התנהגות בריאה מצידו שתשיב את הטבע לאיזונו.
האיום המרכזי שעומד בפנינו הוא מכות טבע שיגרמו לרעב וצמא עולמי, אקלים בלתי נסבל, מגפות שיגררו את המין האנושי למצבי קיצון ואף למלחמת עולם אטומית. מזיק קטן יכול להגיע, וכל מקורות הבשר מן החי או התבואה יעלמו תוך חודש. האדם שכח כמה הוא פגיע מול איתני הטבע, וזה מה שעתיד להתרחש במידה והאדם לא יטה אוזנו לשינוי שעליו לבצע.
האם נעצור רגע לפני נקודת האל-חזור או שנהרוס סופית את העולם? האם העולם צפוי לעבור מלחמות שיחזירו אותו לתקופת האבן, בה לא נותר מהטכנולוגיה והקדמה שום דבר ראוי לשימוש, או שנחכים רגע לפני שיהיה מאוחר מידי ונעלה לדרגת קיום יותר גבוהה? זה תלוי רק בנו.
'Corruption has spread on land and sea as a result of what people’s hands have done, so that Allah may cause them to taste ˹the consequences of˺ some of their deeds and perhaps they might return ˹to the Right Path˺
Quran 30:41
Has anyone looked into the insane benefits of growing hemp to combat climate changes? A demomized plant that may just save our asses. Just look it up if you get a chance. Mainly how efficient it cleans the air and its many many uses.

So both china and Dubai are completely up front about they're massive weather modification programs. But the U.S. doesn't have a program? I 'spose technically they didn't lie, climate change is real and human caused and to successfully enslave us all they need to tax us for breathing.
I can't believe there's forest fires we never had this on this planet before humans started changing climate reeeeeee
Look like the Oregonians are living in a war zone! Dangers are everywhere.
Nope
Don't believe the scare tactics about fire caused by climate change…..look for yourself at the history of fire in the us….I'm a forester….fire is a part of our environment
i think we are too late. its been nice knowing yall
Alright where are the dumb motherfuckers who agreed with the paris agreement.
The planet has been warming for 12000 years. How dumb is it to think that a trace gas that humans and animals breath out and plants breath in is a pollutant that's changing the weather and destroying the planet. We are carbon based life forms for Gods sake. This is about controlling people and nothing more. WAKE UP!!!https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rEWoPzaDmOA&list=PLHSoxioQtwZcqdt3LK6d66tMreI4gqIC-
One effective way to combat climate change is to stop buying animal products and fossil fuels. All you need to take care of on a plantbased diet is to 1. Eat more, 2. Include vitamin sources of k2, d3, b12, and omega 3 epa, dha, and 3. Just buy real foods like oats, not expensive products that are packed with salt and sugar. 🙂
Im not American and im crying for this people and the beautiful grin trees 🌲 😔
Sea level has risen for 12000 years, the rate of sea level rise has actually gone down over the last 100. There are places that record sea level where there has been no rise since recording started. Obummer bought a Island 5 feet above sea level. It's all a lie to control you! I'll tell you what's dumb. Dumb is thinking a trace gas that humans and animals breath out and plants breath in is a pollution that is changing the weather and destroying the planet. People we are carbon based life forms for God sakes, WAKE UP!!!
give every resident a electric bike that is 50% electric and 50% rider powered. It wont help with climate but it will help people to forget their worries. She be real popular too. esp with orthopedists.
we need to find the SOB who invented fire, dig them up and flog them without mercy. Oh no, I just learned that they were burnt to ashes in a fire. Thanks wiki
oregon could shutdown and evacuate and it will do nothing to help what they are trying to accomplish, According to scientists virtue signaling has no effect on climate but "has been associated with a reduction in student performance" was a finding of their study
Why has using computers made kids dumber? Kids today should be academically advanced compared to prior generations. Self paced learning using the best proven methods should have brought every student to their maximum potential. What happened?
the 400 ppm CO2 threshold was crossed years ago. There is absolutely nothing we can do to stop it from climbing higher now. Any attempt is futile.
we need giant solar powered Air Conditioners to move the excess heat into the upper atmosphere to radiate it out into space Maybe from mountaintops. Energy must be used at night so solar with battery storage. No store the heat and use it to make energy.
