Owlofcreamcheese posted:I really mean: calls for individual action is the "millenials need to stop eating avocado toast then they could afford houses" of environmentalism. There is no amount of toast you can skip that will ever save enough to buy a house, you can jerk off as much as you want that toast costs nonzero money so any toast they skip technically brings their savings closer to a house but that is just garbage advice that literally will never have any impact of any sort on the root causes of the issue. Even if that means the individual does not have direct control over the larger reasons their generation struggles to buy a house. hang on, this actually looks like a good post

anyways, i'm in favor of maximizing how bad it gets and ensuring that it happens as rapidly as possible so i'm not really somebody who has a place in this discussion

the real concern is that whatever change occurs will be insufficiently radical and the institutions and people who benefited from contributing the most will be mostly unaffected

it goes beyond just spending $10bux on bans because if it's discussed enough it won't matter if the people talking about it get banned for it

Frightening Knight posted:OOCC, go away. You can come back when you have photographic evidence that you visited the kitty cafe in Germany. can you update this to include a video showing a hand petting a cat in a german cat cafe with dialogue that describes the international cat petting habit? it comes across initially as sort of "reddit cute" but upon reflection the idea of OOCC stalking down alley ways looking for a willing cat is rather disturbing Sing Along fucked around with this message at 21:40 on Oct 23, 2018 |

Oxxidation posted:pretty sure i read before that the carbon cost of building nuclear plants would make their implementation a too-little too-late scenario, even if the united states was capable of building anything new other than weapons and perpetually empty "luxury" condominiums this is why we need to embrace and accelerate climate change

slippery doc posted:This is so much better after a quick google showing that global carbon emissions were 36Gt in the year of 2015. the math involved is so dumb. "yes, with basic stoichiometry and a little bit of multiplication we can solve the hardest puzzle the world has ever encountered"

Epitope posted:People have been fighting capitalism for a lot longer than global warming's been a threat. But cheer up, maybe with nature's help Capital can finally be taken down. Welcome to my ideology. Edit: In all honesty, the Deep Adaptation article is an incredible read. Supplementing it, I'd like to share the blog post its author responded with following its failure to pass peer review: https://jembendell.wordpress.com/2018/07/26/the-study-on-collapse-they-thought-you-should-not-read-yet/ Sing Along fucked around with this message at 12:05 on Oct 28, 2018 |

im depressed lol posted:I went down a click-hole after that Deep Adaptation paper and a book was recommended by* this group. shocking for me to be saying this, but Brooklyn Culture Jammers is way, way too invested in near term human extinction to the point of praising Guy McPhearson uncritically when he claims that we may be weeks from collapse

the 2011 posts are pretty great:quote:Just for anyone who's not up on what modern chemistry/biochemistry is cooking up to solve the problem of excess CO2, it might not be completely unreasonable to say we could have a way to fix massive amounts of CO2 in the next 5-10 years, assuming the powers that be are willing to throw money at the development of what has already been discovered.

The efficiency and success of the Italian aviators in Tripoli are noteworthy, but must not be overvalued. There were no opponents in the air.
