https://www.commondreams.org/opinion/campus-protests-student-journalism-press-freedoms

The effects might not seem much now, but they are going to get worse and no amount of magical thinking is going to change that.
The warnings have been there for 30 years, and the scientists have been proved to be correct in their warning that #ClimateChange is real and man made. The time to act is NOW!
