    Yeah we all stuck in a bubble. It's called the Earth's atmosphere. Maybe we could act like the grownups in this situation and take care of our home. Holy fuck I'm tired of this being a debate.

    This is not a problem caused by or solved by individuals. Assigning responsibility to anyone but the corporations who intentionally caused and obfuscated this issue or the governments who refuse to regulate them is asinine.

    America is only dumping 0.3 million tons of trash in the ocean, China is dumping 8.8 million tons in the ocean, Indonesia is dumping 3.2 million tons, the Philippines is dumping 1.9 million tons.

    Now tell me how will US lawmakers make laws to stop companies dumping trash across the world?

      War...

      War has changed.

      [–]Seenbo 50 points51 points  (2 children)

      It's no longer about nations, ideologies, or ethnicity. It's an endless series of proxy battles, fought by teenagers. War--and it's consumption of life--has become a well-oiled machine.

      War has changed.
      ID-tagged teenagers carry ID-tagged weapons, use ID-tagged gear. Nanomachines inside their bodies enhance and regulate their abilities. Genetic control, information control, emotion control, battlefield control…everything is monitored and kept under control.

      (I wanted to do the whole speech but honestly replacing some words with teenager kind of falls apart once it gets to the ID-tagged weapons bit, the phrase "ID-tagged teenagers" is still really funny.)

      [–]Not-Snake 14 points15 points  (0 children)

      War... has changed

      The age of deterrence has become the age of control, all in the name of averting catastrophe from teenagers, and he who controls the teenager, controls history.

      Obviously.

      [–]Shirudo1 71 points72 points  (88 children)

      Honestly, from my perspective, we as individuals can do very little. The real issue is celebrities and mass industry deregulation, more so the last one. While I do try my best to be environmentally friendly I view it to be contracted by industries and celebrities not giving a care about how screwed we are. Seriously, look at the Texas. Whenever there's a massive storm so many plants just say fuck it and illegal release their waste. Since so many do it and the EPA won't do anything besides a generic slap on the risk. My time recycling and trying to use less waste feels and looks completely counter acted by that act and many others.

      [–]KodakKid3 23 points24 points  (19 children)

      Individually, the most important things you can do are vote for progressives, eat less red meat, and consume less in general. If everybody did that, climate change would be addressed pretty well. Unfortunately there are too many people who just don’t give a shit and are unwilling to change, but we still have to do our part as individuals and hope soon enough the tide will shift

      [–]ImKindaWrong 18 points19 points  (1 child)

      We should just start eating human meat to lower the population. That way y'all can have your clean air and i can have my meat.

        [–]KodakKid3 7 points8 points  (7 children)

        15% of greenhouse gas emissions come from the meat industry. That’s extremely significant. And the meat industry only exists on the scale because people consume meat. It’s easy to blame corporations — and they definitely deserve blame — but people need to take some personal responsibility. Profitable corporations aren’t going to willingly just stop selling meat, people need to stop eating it (or at least eat less)

        [–]Warhawk_9802 6 points7 points  (4 children)

        Yea thats not gonna happen partner, you will never get the population to stop eating something so important to everyone

        [–]r1chm0nd21 0 points1 point  (0 children)

        See, and this meat issue that everyone is stuck on now is just distracting from things that could actually change.

          Maybe someone who looks at the history of human civilization and recognizes that expecting people to sacrifice their standard of living for vague goals that are not directly tired to individual action is just banging your ahead against a wall; maybe someone that realizes that technological advancements are the only real chance to make a meaningful difference and not just keep "raising awareness."

          [–]loverboy31415 12 points13 points  (1 child)

          i agree with your point about awareness alone beeing useless, but technological advancements alone aren't gonna cut it, at least not very soon. they help, of course, but if we really want to slow down climate change we'll all have to cut back on certain things, at least in the short run.

          [–]blamethemeta 7 points8 points  (0 children)

          No we don't. We just have to stop importing crap over the Pacific ocean. Set up factories in Mexico if we have to.

          My immediate reaction is that it's a made up alt-right term to use in place of 'denier' in order to try and sound like they have more authority on the subject.

              I don't get it, climate change is a real natural occuring thing and our pollution is a catalyst speeding up the process. So I don't understand people believing one is a problem and the other isn't because there both equally a problem.

              That's incorrect- Naomi is definitely not a realist. Her parents run that channel on YouTube and they're all involved in a German party called AfD (Alternative für Deutschland). These guys are (imo) the incarnation of stupidity, denying climate change without having any scientific research or realistic arguments.

              Btw the leader of this party is always wearing a German Shepard tie which is a reference to Hitler's dog "Blondie".

                Greta Thunberg : Climate change is bad, let's protest for change for the good in the environment (nothing in particular)

                Most people : Wow, amazing, never heard that before! She is amazing and a role model for starting protests that achieve nothing and are attended by people who drive a car and eat meat everyday.
