- pfisherman 5y agoI think that global warming is generally hard for people to wrap their heads around because it is a planetary scale event, and our consciousness experiences the universe on a much smaller scale. Imo, the best way to reason about the impact in our daily lives is to think about systems that exist in much smaller spacetime scales than ourselves. So in this case statistical mechanics. What happens to the atoms or molecules of a system when you dump a bunch of heat into it? What might that look like at the scale of individual atoms and molecules?
