Climate Change Is Greatly Impacting Amphibians.

... a second global assessment of the world's amphibians has been completed. "It's a gut punch," said Apodaca, who was not involved in the study but has reviewed its findings. "Here we are 19 years later with things not only not improved but getting worse."

I'm concerned about the reptilians among us. Look what they've done already. Might not want to upset them.

Just a little anecdotal add...

We did a nature trail yesterday and saw a woolly bear caterpillar (Isabella Tiger Moth). They used to be everywhere in weather like this and this was the first one I have seen in over a decade spending time on hikes and in the woods in general. I can't tell you the last time I seen the moth that it morphs into.

There are a lot of other examples when we started talking about it. Praying Mantis are another example. All the talk of decline in insects is spot on at least anecdotally. Just saying.

Your anger needs to be directed at the generations of politicians and executives at Big Oil that knew what was happening, hid the evidence and obfuscated the discussion by paying off a handful of "scientists" to refute the thousands of other calling for action.

This could have been worked on gradually as the issue was known back in the 1970's but you probably cheered when Reagan ripped the solar panels off the white house.
