30 Environmental Memes That People Who Are Sick Of Capitalism Destroying The Planet Can Relate To, As Shared On This Page
Climate change includes both global warming caused by human-produced greenhouse gases and the resulting large-scale shifts in weather patterns. Even though there have been periods of climatic change throughout history, since the mid-20th century, humans have had an unprecedented impact on the Earth's climate, causing huge problems on a global scale. And one Facebook page perfectly illustrates how many of us feel about it.
It's called Rare and Endangered Memes for Edgy Environmentalists and it gives people exactly what its name suggests.
"This page doesn't adhere to a specific branch of environmentalism or a specific political ideology, although we have hard left leanings," the admins wrote in its 'About' section. "Our goal is simply to save the planet with the power of edgy green meme comics."
According to the IPCC, the extent of climate change effects on individual regions will vary over time and with the ability of different societal and environmental systems to mitigate or adapt to change.
"Taken as a whole," the IPCC states, "the range of published evidence indicates that the net damage costs of climate change are likely to be significant and to increase over time."
Of course, we have to do more than create and share memes. But it's a start.
