One way or another, these fucks are going to kill us all.
a “side effect of building the modern world.”
Holy fucking hell, these people are stupid, evil, or a nasty combination of the two.
Death by cirrhosis was also a side effect of my grandfather’s bottle a day drinking.
Quite amazing that at the same time he manages to pretend having empathy for “people in Africa”.
Also, the paragraph below the one you quoted:
“We have indeed raised global atmospheric CO2 concentration by 50 percent in the process of more than doubling human life expectancy, lifting almost all of the world’s citizens out of grinding poverty, launching modern medicine,” he said. “Everything in life involves trade-offs.”
What the fuck!? As if any of these achievements wouldn’t likely be lost through climate change.
Holy hell, how can someone be so fucking stupid??? Yeah, that life expectancy will be great when the planet’s uninhabitable…
They’re obviously trying to imply that environmentalists want us all to go back to the Stone Age.
Yeah, you’re right, I guess I missed the forest for the trees there. They’re using weird and counterproductive arguments to make their claim though.
It’s always been an oligarchy (aside from a short period after ww2 which generated an incredible climb in prosperity for the entire country, then the boomers pulled the ladder up after themselves and set fire to it). It’s just completely mask-off now. If USAmericans want to have a non-serf short term and survive long term, they have to start hunting billionaires.
What a wonderful earth this is going to be in a few decades.
60% uninhabitable and the 40% remaining is only barely inhabitable with huge heat waves, floods, storms, every quarter of the year while out of the 40% remaining barely inhabitable will be nice to live for the top 5% of the wealthy people with A/C, housing that isn’t touched by disasters.
Glad I am 32 years old. Well, I wish I was 42 years old so I wouldn’t have to experience it in real life. But I am very grateful for not being born in the last 10 years. I look at people getting kids nowadays and wonder: “Why?” Either people are blind or just don’t care.
Had this discussion with someone a year ago “Well they had kids in WW2 too.” Yeah… but a war might end some day. Nature won’t quit destroying anything that is in it’s path. It might hit strong, the next time a bit weaker but a month later strike back huge. And it won’t stop. Getting worse every year from now.
I mean just look at Argentinia now. Just googled Argentinia but the news is overwhelmed by the storm in Australia currently (Storm Alfred)

Get use to these pictures. Better now than later, cause in ten years the pictures will be way worse.
