Orange Devil posted:Yeah true. yeah again thats not an accident. it's because people with power dont actually want to fix that stuff because to them those aren't problems (whatever the specific example). it's their way of saying no without having to own up to saying no. the west isn't afraid to jump straight into it if it's something actually powerful people care about. see: the energy crisis in europe, or the cares act

yah the tree thing has the same framing as everything else, a desire to ridicule and to see failure. It's a big part of humanity that will benefit from stopping the desertification, with no real ill effects. So success is vital. Why not frame it like it's a good project instead of some weird monstrous thing, to plant trees. Cause China is the enemy of humanity even though they are 1/6 of humanity

It's good and bad. I would say there is substantially less real delegation of duties in chinese business structure and I guess probably all chinese organizational structure. We would call it 'micromanagement', and that's on top of the "boss said to do it so we have to make it work ASAP" sort of thing. Nothing is alien from, say, American business of course - it's just a difference of degree and frequency. It's often more organized in a military sense maybe. I often find it frustrating, it requires really good leaders. American business has its own frustrations but it feels less strictly hierarchical (lol)

By China actually doing something about Climate Change it directly contradicts our own position of theres nothing we could do. So not only must it be badz it must actively make the problem worse unlike bruing more natural gas and building bigger and bigger cars

indigi posted:I don't think the trees are for climate change though it may help Its the general idea that them doing something puts lie to the one we say that there isn't and while its mainly to combat desertification, planting a bunch of carbon sinks while capitalism rushes to get rid of them at least is better than waiting for some magic technology that will take carbon out of the air more efficiently

Telluric Whistler posted:https://www.coronavirus.gov.hk/eng/inbound-travel.html i appreciate the advice but now that im in hong kong its kind of irrelevant my current apprehension is whether im going to be allowed on the plane into china tomorrow as far as i can tell one pcr test at the airport before i go will do it but this flight is also definitely overbooked and i have no idea how or whether theyll screw me over ive noted with a great deal of irritation that due to how expensive covid tests are in the us and the stricter standards in general it might have been cheaper for me to just plan on doing the hong kong quarantine from the beginning
