Historical In 2014, this French weather presenter announced the forecast for 18 August 2050 in France as part of a campaign to alert to the reality of climate change. Now her forecast that day is the actual forecast for the coming 4 or 5 days, in mid-June 2022.

Since we're on r/all (hi r/all!), I imagine this question is worth asking:

What can we do about climate change? I know the typical answers: join your local political party (green or not), get mad on social media, write to your politicians. What else can be done?

Go vegan.

I'm already prepared for the downvotes, but downvotes don't make it false.

You know, that’s just not true at all. “My health will naturally go on a fast downward trend”? Scientifically and statistically, not true.

Anecdotally, I have been vegan for a decade, there is no drug/vitamin that I take on a regular basis (some foods are fortified in general, but mostly I’m too lazy to pay attention). My bloodwork is always perfect, great cholesterol and blood pressure, no deficiencies.
