It took ~20 years for a major influencer to admit that we lost the climate war.
We were defeated by disinformation & greed. There is no mitigating the coming weather extremes and consequences.
But the deeper warning is this...

The result? I chose to be childless.
I was told by multiple scientists, “We’re going to lose. We won’t beat the oil whore’s money or their lies.”
That wasn’t despair, it was realism.
David Suzuki just called it hunkering down.

I dug into the climate models, asked about blind spots, pushed on what we didn’t know. Several experts quietly admitted we were likely underestimating the pace and severity of change.
But that wasn't what alarmed me most.

When I first worked on federal climate initiatives to quantify GHG reductions in 2004, I took every chance to learn, from scientists and analysts, what we actually needed to do in order to mitigate GHGs.
The answers were often chilling.

The key takeaway, high profile influencers are now saying publicly, what they've been saying privately for some time. We're fucked.
“We have failed to shift the narrative and we are still caught up in the same legal, economic and political systems”

The near to tears American in Canada?
Not typical.
Typical is 55% who voted for Trump or didn’t care enough to stop him.... after Project 2025 was public.
Authoritarianism didn’t sneak in.
It was invited.
