Climate Change

One of the most significant environmental factors in animals' (including humans') lives right now are those stemming from climate change. While this blog doesn’t aim to be about climate change, it would be disingenuous to ignore it when considering animals' lives and their lived experiences. Many are being endangered and suffering right now due to the effects of climate change.

If you want to know more about climate change, some helpful resources are included at the end of this post, with an additional link to these resources on the blog’s menu. I encourage you to read these and other resources toward deepening your understanding of the evidence and making more informed, critical decisions. Because of the overwhelming consensus in the evidence, and because this issue is not its focus, this blog won’t directly address climate change arguments, but will hopefully inspire you to pursue further learning and engagement.
