10 years after the Paris Agreement, we have reached a '3-year average global temperature anomaly of +1.5°C in 2 or more datasets'!
And we can't blame El Niño for this, as ENSO was on average negative during this period.
The Paris Agreement was doomed from the start..

@workingclasshistory.com is my favorite history blog hands down bc it's one of the few places out there where I find actual hope. It's one thing to never forget the lives and battles lost to fascism, but we must also remember the victories. This is how you fight and win. This is what it takes.

Hakeem Jeffries will never lead the Dems where they need to go in order to help the people.
He will choose restoration over reform because he has been groomed by the Establishment.
I wish people could finally accept this.
