Also your the practicality of this also depends on whether its a recourse state or a nonrecourse state. florida for example is a recourse state north carolina is nonrecourse, some banks are going to get hosed if they issued mortgages on barrier islands there

let the other thread know that, where they want data to prove that a hundred million will die from climate change. see, the numbers don’t say that yet, you bunch of doomers… it’s really not that bad, everyone needs to let the free market come up with solutions LMAO

Rime posted:U.N. warns world set for 2.7C rise on today's emissions pledges lol, 2.7C seems optimistic. And it's based on current pledges, which probably aren't even close to being fulfilled anyways, and likely won't ever be. If they were all to come out with some bullshit new pledge that brings the numbers closer to the still hellscape of 2C, does anyone anywhere actually expect them to do any meaningful work towards those goals? Blah blah blah as they say.

Lost Time posted:lol, 2.7C seems optimistic. And it's based on current pledges, which probably aren't even close to being fulfilled anyways, and likely won't ever be. The big stumbling block with the emission pledges is that it doesn't account for natural emissions from thawed methane deposits, permafrost or untraced things like methane emissions from natural gas wells. So we are emitting more than even the numbers we aren't reducing in the first place.

Capitalism is already actively allowing people to die very unpleasantly via lack of healthcare and covid. You'd have to be incredibly head in the sand to not see that this will amplify as we start seeing more crop failures and the resulting famine.

The capitalists are killing us with their economic and social systems. Oh dear, what should we do? Well there's too many people you see. Ah, right, too many capitalists - agreed, yes, let's kill them. No you fool, you simpering moron, if we kill them there's still too many people left and everyone will die because of what the capitalists have already done! Ah, right, too many people and capitalists - agreed, yes, let's kill them. I would never do such a thing. Pardon? I've never killed and I never would. I mean maybe I could bring myself to kill a capitalist but not the innocent people. Ah, right, it's much the same with me. Of course, yes, we're both civilized here. What do you propose? Well, we should tell the capitalists to please kill people in a more specific way. How do you mean? Intentional culling. Ah, right, yes. Of course. And who should we cull? Reckon it's not up to us, we who cannot kill. No, no we will need to let the capitalists decide. Very wise, yes.

I think we should reframe it as lives saved rather than lives culled, with "one billion people" as the current baseline we can hope for. Every oil baron we publicly execute adds to that total by reducing our carbon footprint going into the future. Just collapse, let's go!
