    I agree fully, except it’s far from “everyone” that believes this; a lot of people, especially in the west, are still in denial about climate change and plastic waste. Heck, my own mother thinks that climate change is good because “summers will be longer and crops will have more time to grow”, and it’s a common sentiment among her social group (elderly russians)

      Doesn’t change the length of the summer, of course. Climate-appropriate plants need sunlight, not heat. You’ll be able to grow things you couldn’t grow before, but your growing season will still be just as short.
