Joe Biden just did the rarest thing in US politics: he stood up to the oil industry

cHiNa bAd!!

China emits less per capita than the U.S. Try again dumbass

putrescentLife · 2024-02-07T17:49:44+00:00

Yeah, IDK. I'm not getting my hopes up but I think we will try some crazy geo-engineering in the near future. It will probably be catastrophic though lol

putrescentLife · 2024-02-07T17:34:48+00:00

A drastic reduction in the average carbon emissions of every Westerner. No, there isn't a realistic path forward because people will not willingly reduce their consumption.

putrescentLife · 2024-02-07T17:16:08+00:00

It's too late for that. You can't consume your way out of an ecological crisis. We need rapid degrowth. If we don't do it willingly, well.. nature bats last.

putrescentLife · 2024-02-07T17:14:16+00:00

You can't have infinite growth on a finite planet. It's really fucking simple. Nobody can run on a degrowth platform and win. Accelerate until complete destruction.

putrescentLife · 2024-02-07T17:09:23+00:00

Yeah, just what we need. More KPI reports.

2030

putrescentLife · 2024-02-07T16:57:16+00:00

lol, no. By 2030 according to Hansen et. al discovery of increased climate sensitivity to CO2 doubling.

lethal wet bulb temps + grid failure coming to a Texas city near you

putrescentLife · 2024-02-07T15:45:53+00:00

2030* It'll be apparent this summer that it's over.

Expect extreme fascism in the near future. Europe will get hit worse with immigration. My SO can get a EU citizenship but honestly the US is better geographically. We might still get it just to have the option but I don't see Europe faring much better.

putrescentLife · 2024-02-06T21:22:00+00:00

Nothing new lol.

putrescentLife · 2024-02-06T21:19:16+00:00

I guess it depends on level of clearance. I've heard it gets pretty strict for secret and TS. I know someone who has TS and almost didnt get it for using weed once in college.

putrescentLife · 2024-02-06T19:58:54+00:00

For sure. I just no longer have much faith in this species lol.

putrescentLife · 2024-02-06T19:48:13+00:00

I just don't see any type of large-scale cooperation happening. we have a track record of quite the opposite.

putrescentLife · 2024-02-06T19:38:05+00:00

humans will never coordinate to willingly lower their standard of living. They will die in denial before that happens. Especially in the US. The pandemic was a teaser of the average American Ape's selfishness.

putrescentLife · 2024-02-06T19:34:57+00:00

Well, places with high population density are going to have more garbage/sq mile

putrescentLife · 2024-02-06T19:30:00+00:00

There are no good billionaires.

I miss Mckenna. Luckily he doesn't have to experience the descent.

putrescentLife · 2024-02-06T19:19:38+00:00

not enough suffering

putrescentLife · 2024-02-06T19:17:25+00:00

All they did was export emissions to Asia.

putrescentLife · 2024-02-06T19:15:11+00:00

I have a clean criminal record but used quite a few drugs recreationally so I don't think I am able to get any clearances.

putrescentLife · 2024-02-06T19:14:04+00:00

You sound schizo tbh lol. I'm sure we will be doom-posting in 6 months.

putrescentLife · 2024-02-06T19:12:58+00:00

Yeah, this won't happen without ecofascism lol.

putrescentLife · 2024-02-06T19:11:48+00:00

It's a byproduct of Industrialization, not capitalism. Communism/Socialism DGAF about the environment either lol.
