I was wrong. This is environmentalism’s biggest problem

The problem with environmentalism is that this means nothing for most people. We need to begin equating this to real-world problems, without fear-mongering.

Let’s think for a moment about what 1.5°C of warming will mean for the planet. 48cm of sea level rises. 16% increase in the number of heatwave days. Complete meltdown of the Arctic ice.


(It would also be quite useful to give them credible but simple explanations of climate science, but that’s just wishful thinking.)

So, how exactly does one go about this?
