It's almost as if people aren't listening to the news about: out of control forest fires in Canada, heat domes covering large parts of North America, Greek islands on fire, parts of Europe slowly turning into deserts, parts of the Middle East being close to being unable to sustain human life, etc. And craziest thing of all is that they don't realise that burning all these trees is pumping vast amounts of extra CO2 into the atmosphere so that it's only going to get worse.
