    The only way that anyone in government is trying to solve this is via more money to corporations. Pay them to switch to X. Buy Y from them to replace Z.

    Carbon credits are a con. Solar and wind are great, but they don’t actually solve emissions on their own; you have to mandate the closure of the non-green energy sources too. And lots of emission sources are not even being targeted at all.

    On the upside, my Mini is gonna look awesome with armor plating, out on the dunes that used to be oceans. Shiny, and chrome!

    Capitalist system = we’ll acknowledge climate change only when it will seriously begin to hurt our bottom line. By then, it will be already too late. Earth will be f***ed.

        You fucking know what’s meant by the fucking line “Earth will be fucked”. Take this sanctimonious gotcha comment and stuff it.
