IAMKOREA posted:oh yeah so there's this stuff called 'methane' and its really bad. we're gonna stop it by, uh, feeding cows seaweed? or algae or some poo poo. we don't know. the scientists are working on it. don't worry. oh, no you can still keep eating beef. definitely. definitely don't stop eating beef, that would hurt the cattle ranchers. what a relief Perry Mason Jar posted:What? Yes we will entertain it. I mean we don't tell people to gently caress off when they bring bargaining in we just point by point tell them why there is no bargain. The conflict there is more on the part of the person doing the bargaining. We will entertain anything but the thread is not really friendly to the bargaining mindset. They want "Constructive feedback" and numbers for their plans and charts and don't want us laughing in their faces when they are desperately trying to come up with an equation that proves they are okay. Someone angry might get off on us roasting them, and someone depressed will be helped by our jokes but when you want to whip out a sliderule and measure carbon molecules in a plastic straw or whatever the jokes are going to be antagonistic and unwelcome.

Rah! posted:i feel like the anger stage never goes away I dunno. I'm too tired for anger most of the time. Sometimes it bubbles up over egregious poo poo like the biden admin continuing to approve drilling while biden fans tell me he's so environmentally friendly! But that's probably more mad at succ than anything.

Anger is just a manifestation of depression and it was silly to split them into distinct categories. Well I mean generally grief doesn't work in those stages in that order or anything, but they're all in the mix.

Any level of acceptance has to include and account for the full human emotional experience... anger a completely valid emotional impulse at what we've done - less anger at the existence of the problem, more at the interlocutors who perpetuate it at varying degrees. Blame for all, but more blame for some. Requires embrace of other emotions too, positive and negative. The healthiest parts of this (and previous) thread are in embracing the positive

Perry Mason Jar posted:What? Yes we will entertain it. I mean we don't tell people to gently caress off when they bring bargaining in we just point by point tell them why there is no bargain. The tricky part about bargaining is that there is nothing inherently wrong with having hope. If Elon Musk or Aliens or whatever the gently caress come up with a solution to fix this nightmare catastrophe, I will be happilly dancing in the streets with the rest of you. Hope isnt the issue. The issue is when bargaining is used as an excuse for inaction, aka "sure it will be grand because of <reason>". This is doubly hard to deal with because any and all action available to us is essentialy meaningless. I dont have an answer to this one, other than look towards what you can do to keep yourself and your family/friends safe.

Hope was oppressive for me, when I cast it off I became better. If a miracle occurs I will sing but I don't sit around waiting for miracles to happen so that I may sing.

I feel like it's all the same grief/rage just with different levels of intensity and character depending on how present you are in the moment and how distressing the aspect of Doooooooom you're focused on is. Acceptance is when you find it funny

Perry Mason Jar posted:Here we go! Get ready for the fascism, baby! I forget which country recently put in a proposal to limit driving to 3,000km per year and then you need to pay for every mile above that. It's a farce, dummies. Money will buy you out of any responsibility and the ruling class will do nothing whatsoever to curb emissions while they demand and force you to tamp down your pathetically small contributions to the crisis (relative to the policies and industries and war they maintain and create). They don't really give a gently caress about your emissions but it's useful to make you a slave, eh? https://twitter.com/WeDontHaveTime/status/1441092262092414979?s=20

lol. lmao This is not even new, just more obvious today. It was immediately obvious when the GND (the Dem one, not the Green one that they vitiated (which also sucks, by the way!)) was inked but not so difficult to figure out before then either. Anyway make sure you fight back, you have a duty to yourself and your community! Good luck!

Minrad posted:us c 130s log 175,000 combined flight hours, yearly Minrad posted:im sure if you cut down on your personal waste a bit you can match the equivalent of driving 2.8 billion miles every year though The US Air Force (and probably everyone else too, esp if we trained them) make pilots fly just so they can keep up their flight hours. And then you zoom out on the absolutely tremendous waste of energy war is in general. The Red Ball Express in WW2 was a fuel supply chain in France, and used more fuel than it could deliver. Every tank and plane just guzzling fuel like it's going out of style (and it is). In the Korean War the air force literally ran out of things to bomb. In Vietnam helicopter transport became the norm. Gulf War I made air power the foremost force in the US military. But yeah stop taking showers and sit in 89 degree heat for the uh, planet.

Bill Maher had a "New Rule" about 2-3 weeks ago where he advocated for moving water from the East to the West. "Don't tell me it can't be done, there've been studies and we have oil pipelines all over the place!" Yeah, except those tend to travel over flat plains, not over continental divides. And he never brings up *volume*. The pipe width that would be needed would be...Brobdingnagian. The general message was "*I* personally don't want to have to move from where I'm comfortable because of the consequences of climate change, so literally move heaven and hundreds of trillions of tons of earth so I don't have to."
