Who would you rather keep up with, the Kardashians or climate change? For the first time ever, Google search hits for climate change overtook searches for the Kardashian family, during the peak of Pakistan's flooding crisis this past summer.
A tweet by Twitter user Solitaire Townsend highlighted the fact that historically, more people overall have used search-engine Google to look up the Kardashians —who are a family of American influencers and celebrities— than to look up climate change.
She pointed out that the only time searches for climate change surpassed those for the Kardashians were during the peak of the flooding crisis in Pakistan in April.

People in the replies suggested that maybe having the Kardashians speak on climate change could be helpful for environmental activism.
