    The more I see news from america the less I’m surprised

    That place has turned into so much off a hellhole that even the animals are following suit

        Or…“ignoring or denying a changing climate has consequences like more fires, more floods, and invasive or dangerous species moving into areas they haven’t previously thrived” vibes.

            If I were to wager, this has spread where it has because of global warming. I know malaria has been spotted in the US because it’s warm enough now.

              Malaria used to be endemic to the U.S. - that’s actually why the CDC is headquartered in Atlanta. The reason why malaria is back is because we’ve backslid on fighting mosquitoes.
