@Jain a warning for what

Jain, 16 days ago

@aetios For me it is an example of the change in the state of the world. In this case, an indicator of climate change

@Jain what does the northern light have to do with climate change?

Jain, 16 days ago

@aetios isnt it unusual to see that so far to the Equator?

@Jain @aetios You see them more the further north/south you get. They are caused by solar winds interacting with our magnetosphere and almost definitely have nothing to do with climate change – it’s all space stuff.

Soooo you can enjoy them without worry :blobthumbsup:

@jamie @aetios :comfyaww: ok i see

@jamie @Jain What Jamie says - it is a phenomenon that humans have no influence on at all. Thankfully not everything is caused by climate change! I often get a similar dreadful 'climate doom' feeling when I read about the Great Red Spot on Jupiter shrinking. Then, I really have to remind me that we have nothing at all to do with that! It is a great sort of humbling feeling.

(sorry if I was a bit condescending earlier, I was trying to nudge you to putting the pieces together yourself)

@aetios @Jain lol yeah whatever is going on with Jupiter we are 100% off the hook on :bloblaugh:

for now :blobthinksmart:

@jamie @Jain i would advocate for humans to make one or maybe several really cool permanent storms on Jupiter that are easily seen with a telescope. I think that would be some climate change for good. :akko_no:​

@aetios @jamie :blobcatfrowningbig: if i would have heard from it earlier i would have setup my cam
