Here in CA, I definitely feel like there's a distinctly noticeable impact now that's apparent to any idiot that lives here. On the plus side, support for ecofriendliness is steadily on the upswing, and the technology to implement it is advancing formidably.

I am concerned that Trump will double-down on his climate denial. It could be the single most disastrous aspect of his presidency. I was also not aware that the US was such a huge producer of CO2 compared to other developed, and even more populous countries. I knew we were bad, but the biggest emitters chart really puts things into perspective.

Both places I've lived the climate is noticeably different than it was decades ago. I lived in Florida for a long time and weather has been getting stranger there for at least 10-15 years.
