First there was Coral reef bleaching then there was the Florida hot tub ocean water this summer, and now river dolphins are basically boiling to death in their natural habitat. And these are just the atrocities we know of. There are undoubtedly even more climate change atrocities happening in the unmonitored vastness of the Earth's oceans. 😢🐬💀
Like many people already said... we are totally fucked
Right-wing capitalists: "what if we just cut down more of the Amazon? that'll fix things, right?"
"Well, the statistics show that the rate of dolphin deaths are declining."
"Yeah, that happens when the rest are dead."
About 39 °C
That’s shower temperatures, jeezus.
Totally normal - nothing to see here...
Those clickity fuckers were asking for it, always laughing at us /s
This is in the southern hemisphere, it's the end of winter/beginning of summer there and the water temperature is already that high. When do we start holding corporations/governments accountable?
Seems like it won't happen until its too late
This is a short distance from the equator. The seasons there don't really affect temperature significantly; only rainfall.
This just makes me so angry.
Just remember that dolphins are rapeists
Must've been the wind farms.

/shereTurn it over. I think it's done on that side.
So long, and thanks for all the [death rattle]
