Luckily my adderall is IR so I can claim leftist ideals 😌
I know others have answered, but just to bring up a few points that might sway you to seeing why it is incorrect to assume that climate change will affect everyone equally: Storm surges are likely to increase along coastlines. If you are wealthy enough you can move further inland or take additional precautions like installing infrastructure to protect your home/land. You likely also have better insurance with higher premiums, but which will help in the event that your home or property is damaged. The same is true for those in areas prone to things like tornadoes and wildfires. You also are more likely to have the resources to evacuate quickly in the event of an emergency and pay for lodging for extended periods of time until the area you live is safe to return to. Additionally, crop failures will affect everyone, but less so those who are able to pay extra for food. Right now many people struggle to afford the basics, and because of how we operate economically, there is incentive to raise prices when things are harder to obtain. This includes simple staples like cereals/fruits/vegetables/etc and like we recently saw… eggs. Infrastructure is another area where we will begin to see large disparities, as older communities struggle to keep up with changing climates. Floods can be mitigated somewhat by enlarging drainage, but only if the city/state/municipality can afford to do so. I’m not trying to harp on you for not knowing, but it’s important that these things are considered when we discuss the inequities between rich and poor going forward (we’ve already seen these, but they will be compounded going forward at an even more accelerated rate).
Veggies in the door, condiments in bottom drawer, cheese drawer above that (CHEESE ONLY), good luck to everything else it’s going on a shelf. The freezer is a got damn mess tho.
I read that “condiments in a drawer, veggies in the door” can help you remember you have vegetables if you have trouble with object permanence (adhd) and no one forgets they have ketchup. I, personally, never forget I have cheese, hence the drawer full of it
Oh my gosh, similar to my story and you’re exactly right. Yeah I could totally be happier running around the forest all day but that’s not feasible when I’ve got kids getting off the school bus who need encouragement to do the things and who need to be fed more than the handful of berries that are likely smashed in my pockets because I was more interested in collecting several cool rocks. Now the kids are crying because it’s stone soup again for dinner. It’s just a damn mess.
Very cool :) if I’m ever in the area I’ll have to swing by. I love LFLs. I consider it my mission to drop off a couple of books a month to the ones near me on dog walks as an excuse to check what’s been left there haha. Someone near me is also a sci-fi/speclit enthusiast and I like to think we’re supplementing each other’s purchases.
Was upset enough to hunt down a picture I could read https://www.globalfirstaidcentre.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/11/irc-first-aid-a2-poster-09.2013-1.pdf
