I've been thinking about this video a lot lately https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cCxPOqwCr1I I know people have known since industrialisation that poo poo was going wrong, but this point in 1973 when scientists clearly say "we're hosed" and world politics doesn't even skip a beat sits heavy with me at the moment for some reason lol lmao

Australia's Prime Minister is also on the "technology, engineering and private market solutions will be enough" band wagon. No surprise there.

Chamale posted:Denmark has a bulldozer that drives up and down a beach twice a week, picking up all the plastic, then it wades into the ocean and dumps all of the plastic a few metres from the shore. $150,000 a year for this. This is incredible. I feel like this is what "witnessing indescribable scenes from another dimension" is getting at. lol lmao

Xaris posted:look, it would be bad to end on a downer note okay? we will raise awareness and fund raise for global agile solutions that synergize with the enterprise market to enable clean green living while shifting the paradigm towards harm reduction. there is still hope as more people have become educated and made aware that they will induce demand upon legislators to introduce private-public market-based alternatives to protect the environment. I watched "Planet of the Humans" last night. That ends on a serious gut punch.

Meanwhile, the summer in subtropical Australia has been quite mild so far this year, so is climate change really that bad?

It rained heavily almost non-stop for 4-5 days here in South East Queensland in Australia and while it has barely impacted my home directly, I'm just here thinking this could happen again any time for no reason. There's no real"reason" it started this time

The Bureau of Meteorology in Australia is calling the storms that have caused the flooding here "a 1 in 1000 year event" lol, lmao there's been 3 in the last year that I can remember - Germany, Canada and Australia - so far.

My kids are 12, 14 & 16. I had them before really thinking about how bad things are going to get. Sometimes I wonder why we're still going through the motions of getting them to apply themselves at school and think about their future as if it's going to be anything like the past "normal". There's no more normal.

I don't know if it was purely parody, but there was an episode of the bureaucracy comedy from Australia called "Utopia" that was about how millions spent on wildlife crossings just funneled the vulnerable species into the waiting jaws of predators who quickly figured out where to stay for an easy meal. lol On another note, wasted billions: https://www.thesaturdaypaper.com.au/news/politics/2022/03/26/taylors-office-spent-1-billion-sham-carbon-projects/164821320013577#mtr I expect just about every nation's policies will end up going the same way. Maybe I'm just too cynical.

I think all it's going to take is power collapse in one or more areas where major DNS hubs are housed then the internet will be hosed for ages. If the internet goes then telecommunications, logistics and transport go and I suspect collapse will be very fast if they're majorly disrupted. We'd better hope the wars / nukes / fires / hypercanes / tornadoes just stay predictable.
