Ongoing drought, a warm dry winter plus a late hard freeze killed fruit, nuts, grasses and insects (we usually have a very large and annoying emergence of moths in May, which is a HUGE food source for bears - they can eat 40,000 a day in the summer) which left the bears without options for food. +

As they are entering hyperphagia before fall, they are going outside their normal range, breaking into old ladies houses, elementary schools and peoples cars. This is very alarming and everyone who I have talked to about it COMPLETELY brushes it off, like yeah it’s been a tough year for everyone.

Sorry, but we’re in the part of the climate change disaster where megafauna is involved at this level and you don’t think it’s a big deal?!? Not that there’s anything we can really DO at this point, but omg a little situational awareness seems pretty fucking appropriate at this time. Right? Right!?

oh I had this dream years ago that stayed with me about living in a post-climate-change-sea-level-global-disaster new york and seeing Mike D performing in a parking garage / messed up building and recognizing him and him saying "yeah man I'm 159 years old!" because it was you know, distant future

I dreamed that I went to see Carney and asked him for tape. It was very strange. I have been so upset about his climate policies recently. Tape: fixing, mending? Who knows what this was all about.

I think I might have had my first climate change-related nigthtmare after seeing that. Or at least the first I can remember. In the dream it was inside a US shopping mall that collapsed, killing thousands.

Would you like me to anonymize this dream and share it at the archive?

It was very hot outside. There was nothing but desert and sand dunes as far as the eye could see. I knew in the dream that the entire planet had turned to desert. I woke up in panic. Years later when I first heard Neil Young's "After the Gold Rush," the song made so much sense.
