- dfdydx 2mo agoAren't those "other problems" somewhat affected by climate change though?
- sajithdilshan 2mo agoAll those problems were already there even before climate change was a topic, so nothing new regarding that front
- rendaw 2mo agoI don't think GP was claiming they weren't.
- dfdydx 2mo agoI'd wager they're not binary (absent/present) issues but have many dimensions and a continuum of possible values and thus "climate change makes this problem worse or different" is something new.
