Why does everything have to be a mental illness with you people? Why can't someone just be pissed the gently caress off or sad because of the situation, which is remarkably lovely.

Probably because of the way that man typed up two barely legible posts about how you shouldn't care about anything because you're a lovely person for caring while being born in the US or whatever his point was.

If climate change is a good thing, is it a moral imperative to pump as much GHG as possible into the atmosphere? If so, you could say the oil companies are the most moral companies of all...

Do you think that anyone is going to say, "well, I might be boiled alive or dragged out of my house by an angry mob for not helping the government, but unless they pay me well, I won't help save the world!"

That actually sounds pretty likely.

How do I explain to my SO that I don't want to have kids because I'm pretty sure they will live a life much worse than mine, and my life already is poo poo?

Like people just completely ignore the climate change problem because it's so big. I'm pretty sure everyone is just hoping all the scientists have it wrong and it will all end up being a big misunderstanding, because actually facing the reality means that we need to start making huge changes yesterday.

Also the sea water will be diluted with fresh water from the melting ice. And warmer waters is good for some fish, bad for others.

It's loving amazing how butthurt people get when they hear they're not getting my organs, usually from people who have very longwinded opinions about bodily autonomy. It's so bizarre to think about not getting a donation from me as "punishing the suffering", yet for some reason when you don't donate your vacation cash to help the needy, that's not "punishing the suffering".

Telling though how many people need to chime in and tell me how hard they're rolling their eyes at my decisions. Maybe if you didn't view me as merely a means to my organs your gramps wouldn't have died before they got to the top of the list.


No you didn't.


Yeah, how stupid of me to get out of a minimum wage field and not to give your mamaw my meat. So dumb, y'know.

I have never been on a vacation because I'm poor af.

Plus I imagine most of us aren't going to ask for our money to be buried with us :v:

So his is profiteering off of global warming, hiding his solutions behind a paywall. This is not a guy I respect or want anything to do with. If he cared about this issue, he would make his entire solutions freely and publicly available. He is a profiteer and should be treated as such.

So why are so few people alarmed about climate change? Our 'leaders' treat it as a small issue, the media rarely covers it, people in general may say they think it's a huge issue but then they just continue business as usual, consuming and polluting. Is it because most of them think they're old enough they won't feel the full effects? Do a lot of people actually think it's a hoax and all of the scientists are lying to them? I am honestly unsure. Even my (soon to be ex) wife says that the world will be poo poo to live on in 30 years if we don't change things and she still wants kids

What if people started killing climate deniers :getin:

anyways yeah all that you guys have said is pretty much true, it's just depressing that no one really cares to change it. There's like 10 of us who try to protest our local congresscritter for being a denier, but he just cancelled his town halls and stopped holding public meetings since he is in such a Republican area that he can't be challenged.

Which is fine - better safe than sorry.

But if they entire earth were facing something like this in the next 10 years there'd be a lot more action by business on this forefront preparing for that. Their not.

When they start developing and planting heat-resistant crops i'll worry.

Good username/post combo.

I'm sure smart people are monitoring the situation...

Wait, they are, the climate scientists have been panicking for so long that their screams have faded into background.
