Many people are saying it folks: 4 degrees of warming by the end of the century (even as soon as 2070s) is a real possibility. How much longer do you think the :lmayo: countries in the north can hang on under these conditions?

To me, the more important question is whether the southern countries will be able to take collective action against the north before that happens. The workers and resources of the global south are necessary for northern prosperity. If they wait until the north takes action because it is as devastated by climate change as the south is, then it will be too late for the south.
Hopefully, a sufficiently large block will organize to withhold their land and their labor to force action on climate before the worst of it happens.
But this is all Kaiju politics. As someone in the global north, it doesn't really change my on the ground organizing.

Me too :lenin-laugh:
What I meant was I might as well be saying, "I hope Mothra can team up with Godzilla in time to stop King Ghidorah from completely destroying Okinawa before he moves on to the mainland."
This is a great point. It's exciting to see countries like Ecuador and Panama striking for, and getting, the changes needed to help their actual population, and standing up to Amerikkkan billionaires. I really hope that more countries in Latin America follow suit, and create feelings of solidarity among the working class in the US while at the same time destroying US hegemony.
