Cold on a Cob posted:idk what you mean, are you saying i shouldn't have feelings about the people who largely agree with people like me about climate change but openly judge people like me anyway because we're not suitably optimistic about our chances? No, I'm saying that your feelings are your responsibility and someone's internal state is fundamentally unknowable, even if they seem snooty or whatever to you. It doesn't matter one bit to the climate how someone feels about what they do, or how you feel about how they feel, or even how other people feel about what you do! Namaste.

Cold on a Cob posted:not exactly the same but makes me think about how i've been told about we need to go 100% electric cars instead of prioritizing mass transit Oh absolutely. We are already slowing the adoption of electric cars because of slow/poor sales, at least that is how I read it explained in one article. (Not the one below though) Biden administration rolls out new tailpipe rules that will boost EVs and hybrids quote:The Biden administration on Wednesday finalized one of the most significant pieces of its ambitious climate agenda: the strongest new tailpipe rules for passenger cars and trucks that will decisively push the US auto market toward electric vehicles and hybrids.

THE BEGINNING OF THE END OF THE FOSSIL FUEL ERA quote:Today is a reminder that organizing works. We have to keep going. We have to keep advocating for policy change, for a formal declaration of a climate emergency, and we have to mobilize and vote in this election. The stakes are too high to allow all of our hard work to be eradicated by extremist politicians. I know we can win more if we keep showing up the way we did for this historic moment. The fossil fuel era is ending but not in the way Sunrise think bedpan has issued a correction as of 18:41 on Mar 20, 2024 |

That was in January, it was only a pause on issuing new export permits to non-FTA countries, and they're already saying it's going to be unpaused by next year

bedpan posted:my prediction is that as climate change worsens and become more obvious, continued and greater fossil fuel use will be publicly justified on the grounds of "well climate change has already happened. no reason to stop now." it’s not much of a prediction when that’s already the argument made by economists and fossil fuel producers for at least a few years now. gotta help the global poor by giving them as much cheap energy as possible so they can deal with the impacts of global warming!

It's important to think positively about climate change: Sure it's going to kill everyone I love, but it's also going to kill everyone I hate which is a much larger number. Thanks climate change!

bedpan posted:my prediction is that as climate change worsens and become more obvious, continued and greater fossil fuel use will be publicly justified on the grounds of "well climate change has already happened. no reason to stop now." quote:In brief, the idea is that once we enter a decline phase in fossil fuel availability—first in petroleum—our growth-based economic system will struggle to cope with a contraction of its very lifeblood. Fuel prices will skyrocket, some individuals and exporting nations will react by hoarding, and energy scarcity will quickly become the new norm. The invisible hand of the market will slap us silly demanding a new energy infrastructure based on non-fossil solutions. But here’s the rub. The construction of that shiny new infrastructure requires not just money, but…energy. And that’s the very commodity in short supply. Will we really be willing to sacrifice additional energy in the short term—effectively steepening the decline—for a long-term energy plan? It’s a trap! https://dothemath.ucsd.edu/2011/10/the-energy-trap/ Re re repost

Dog Case posted:Hey look another one Im not surprised. Usually peak cherry season you see them get down to like a few bucks a lb and everywhere - like stands all over the place. Last year i barely saw any and the prices never dropped below like 8 bucks a pound. It was pretty obvious poo poo got hosed. Last year's heatwave also caused the state to actually pass some laws around farm workers safe working conditions - having water / shade / rest time. Heatdome 2021 also murdered a fuckload of the younger tree plantings. At the time i saw farmers reporting they lost 25%+ trees. So that's like 2 seasons in 3 years getting completely hosed. Berry crops also ate poo poo.

ok replace the word "instead" with "over" if you want to remove the dichotomy but honestly it does feel like a true dichotomy when my city eliminates bike lanes and transit is an afterthought because we're car brained as hell here tuyop posted:No, I'm saying that your feelings are your responsibility and someone's internal state is fundamentally unknowable, even if they seem snooty or whatever to you. ok now i get you, yeah i should let it go vOv

Scarabrae posted:helicopters? Yeah, they blow all the water off by flying at low altitude over the trees otherwise the cherries split. If 25% of the cherries split they just don't bother to pick any of them at all because it is no longer profitable. It's made worse by heat so cherries are probably a crop that will become scarce soonish.

I work in landscaping. Just tonight my father was espousing how much I must have learned about gardening and farming, soil and cycles. No, dad, I don't really care about the ideal time to prune hydrangeas or pot dahlias in the interest of beautifying wealthy folks gardens, and I don't care how invested they are in planting natives or putting little budhas in their yard! Also endless and sure to intensify LOL at the "why" of your garden this year.

Rectal Death Alert posted:"You must be really good with plants" Design is somebody else's job. I only need to take some basic pride in my labor. But it does keep one's eyes open. That said I can see my clients as human beings too. Funny how you can see a liberal as captured as a Maga, and a boogie landowner "there but by the grace of god" or w.e. Guess that's why we lost. No, not because of a surplus of empathy. Gonna shoot from the hip and blame engineers. They engineered this poo poo!
