A handful of billionaires could help us. But if they won't help fellow humans, then they sure as hell won't care about penguins.
Warming temperatures are forcing Antarctic penguins to breed earlier and that's a big problem for two of the cute tuxedoed species that face extinction by the end of the century, a study said. https://to.pbs.org/49Jiy0m

Today, the Trump administration repealed the endangerment finding: the ruling that served as the basis for limits on tailpipe emissions and power plant rules. Without it, we’ll be less safe, less healthy and less able to fight climate change—all so the fossil fuel industry can make even more money.

Republicans and billionaires: "If we ignore/suppress/lie enough about it, it will just go away. Because we never learned object permanence and have the intellects and personalities of toddlers."
Fearing that educated judges might rule on climate cases, Republican Attorneys General successfully bullied the The Federal Judicial Center (the education & research arm of the federal court system) into removing a chapter summarizing climate science from their scientific judicial reference manual.

This is what happens when a world is built around a system where psychopaths control everything.
They don’t care that everything is going to die, in fact they’re probably cheering it on.

Climate change could lead to 123 million additional malaria cases and 532,000 deaths between 2024 and 2050. Extreme weather events are identified as the primary driver. The findings emphasize the need for climate-resilient malaria control strategies and robust emergency response systems.

No other species on Earth systematically destroys its own habitat for temporary gain. We do—and call it "economic growth." If this is intelligence, we'd be better off acting on instinct. The planet deserves better stewards. Heal her now. ❤️🪴 #EcoJustice
