Comment FooferhillGod question-I've been away for a month or so-travelled and lost interest in Snapzu largely due to another user pressuring me not to interact with another user when I agreed with a fairly benign comment (yeah the same Snapzu users who insist they are such a nice community). Anyhoo-it seems it's same old same old. my view would be it would be nice to see the front page not dominated by the same old users-noticed a slight difference there which may encourage me to come back more often.

There's something wrong with how we have been taught to raise our children these past 20 or 30 years: thin-skinned, super-sensitive and primed to turn to the authorities—parents, teachers and now deans—anytime they feel the slightest bit uncomfortable or aggrieved.

Reducing emissions alone won't stop climate change: new research
Based on current greenhouse gas emissions, the world is on track for 4C warming by 2100 - well beyond the internationally agreed guardrail of 2C. To keep warming below 2C, we need to either reduce our emissions or take carbon dioxide out of the atmosphere.
