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."

Scientists believe that global temperatures will continue to rise for decades to come, largely due to greenhouse gases produced by human activities. The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), which includes more than 1,300 scientists from the United States and other countries, forecasts a temperature rise of 2.5 to 10 degrees Fahrenheit over the next century.
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.
The IPCC also predicts that increases in global mean temperature of less than 1.8 to 5.4 degrees Fahrenheit (1 to 3 degrees Celsius) above 1990 levels will produce beneficial impacts in some regions and harmful ones in others. Net annual costs will increase over time as global temperatures increase.
"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.

The far end of the match plans on living in space in a big penis rocket instead of extinguishing the match 🙄
Capitalism is a broken system, maybe it could work but only with tons of governmental adjustments. It would be better to just switch to something different from different
Let’s see if overpopulation is a myth in another 50-100 years. Why does capitalism keep producing products? To make money - sure. To be able to sell to more and more people as the population keeps growing - definitely. We have a people problem, Mr. Institute. This BS about having enough food and resources is just not true. And if there are 15 billion people on the planet, where are they going to live? And what are they going to get to eat? There’s only so much land that can be farmed, that’s why 95% of us occupy only 10% of it.
There's a hill being developed near my house and I have been sorely tempted to sneak over and plant a bunch of trees in the dead of night.
Some of these are nonsense. In particular the "We only inhabit 10% of the earth's land mass, our population can double!" trope. Large areas of the earth's land mass are not suitable for habitation or farming and other large chunks are forests that we need for oxygen production.
Plus, space and food is not the only thing humans need. These people forget that humans also use a fuckton of metal and glass.
Load More Replies...We also need to stop blaming corporations and the rich for everything, they are rich and prosperous because we keep buying their crappy products. So stop buying their s**t.
hat are our options? The basic necessities are all mass produced by large companies. No many mom and pop shops hat I know of are making toilet paper.
