Regarding ways to present changes to global temperature: I imagine only a minority of all people understand that a change of, say, one degree Celsius to the average global temperature is a rather significant change. (I don't know whether anyone has studied properly the actual extent of this understanding.) But I am sure that the situation is the same when two degrees Fahrenheit are mentioned, or even one or two degrees of temperature in an unspecified scale. A message would be effective if it is expressed in tangible terms and geared towards regional climate. Just as one example of many regarding the latter, talking about hurricanes means one thing to the people who live on the East Coast of the US and quite another to people in South-East Europe (where I live). @kritischelezer@mastodon.social @kentpitman@climatejustice.social
