Everywhere is. That's one of the consequences of the climate change we're causing. Warmer global temps mean the air can store more water. And that means mosquitos are only going to get worse.
No. That's like saying that there won't be winters or snow storms anymore because of global warming.
The comment you replied to says literally the opposite of the thing you claim it says. There will be more precipitation, not less.
Which is not how climate change works. Climate and weather are two different things and and there are regions that will become dryer, not more humid, even if global precipitation rates increase as a whole, just like there's regions that will experience very extreme winters, despite Earth getting warmer globally.
Didn't know there were so many climate deniers on the fediverse but I suppose that's what to expect in a Texas / Ameritard community.
and you think they're entirely uncoupled from each other? phew... wow.
really?
goddamn
You misinterpreted someone (willfully or ignorantly) then called them a retard? go put your fucking maga hat back on jfc
No, that's just your mental gymnastics.
Nicely projected, you ableist prick.
On average, warmer air means more moisture. Yes, some areas will have less. But they're absolutely correct.
Ignorance ≠ Climate Denier.
That's a very dangerous and devicive rhetoric.
It's 2024, we're decades past flowery rhetoric. Both are morons that are destroying their own and our livelihood.
Is it?
Yes? Your typical climate denier argument is the disability to differentiate climate from weather and argue that "duh, if there's global warming, then how come there's snowfall!" ... It is the failure to understand that just because global temperatures increase, does not mean that temperatures everywhere increase. Just like it is not going to get more humid everywhere just because global precipitation rates increase.
I guess I should've expect this response from a Texas / Ameritard community though.
You need to relax a bit. No one is denying climate change here. (At least at the time I am writing this)
While I do agree with you that many Americans are, in fact, dumb, you should drop the use of slurs. They’re not conducive to a healthy environment and they make you look like an edgy 13 year old.
Healthy environment... You know what's not conducive to a healthy environment? The future (or lack thereof) we're running into thanks to this bullshit, ranging from toxic positivity, over willful ignorance, to straight up denialism. And btw, your "edgy 13 year olds" are part of you people too.
