Climate change, the latest findings, and how we use the outdoors?
gertlush replied to jon's topic in Climber's Board
Did we read the same article? It was pretty clear that lowering the thermostat 2 degrees ain't gonna cut it. I think we need to accept this is going to happen, do our best to mitigate it, then prepare as best we can. Plan to evacuate coastal areas, where are we going to get food & water, how are we going to keep swarms of desperate refugees out, etc etc. -

It's odd that we even think that we can avert this, it's not like this report is news. Our habits aren't going to change, and if we do, well, the rest of the world won't. There was that report a few months back about how scientists were amazed to still find CFC's being emitted and depleting the ozone.. and they traced it back to China... a small example but indicative of the larger problem. -

Good god I bought this song on Tuesday and have listened to it about 40 times and killed 3 people since then.

Bumped them both to the top of the BC Forum for your reading pleasure! And I'm mistaken, he soloed Cheam a week after his high school grad.. shit... I was probably playing Nintendo a week after my grad..

I met him once after I read the TR where he bailed off Slesse and lost all his gear, I sold him a bunch of old cams to restart his rack, nice kid. Haha his dad was with him and was a hard bargainer. One of my favourite all time TRs from CascadeClimbers is his "2 white boys on a big white hill", also liked the one where he soloed Cheam's N Face on his high school grad night. Sad event but as others have expressed 'live by the sword, die by the sword' right.

Christ, I thought mine were the only ones. They love the "Star Wars" spinoff one... Personally I'm listening, over and over again, to the "the Evil has Landed" by QOTSA
