Don’t think I need to summarize this one. This should be world news right now. This is bad news for everyone.
So when I get to the section titled “what can we do?” I just stop reading, because what’s the fucking point?
I was actually thinking about this last night. I was considering building a list of people that I should visit.
If we truly reach a point where the world becomes so horribly unlivable for so many people then I will go pay the people responsible a visit. They shouldn’t be allowed to live a happily ever after in their climate compounds funded by their destruction of the planet.
They won’t. The truth is biodome didnt work. They may stave off an extra 10-20 years underground but they are foolish if they think they will be spared. These effects span hundreds of years. This truly is our only sinking ship in an ocean of stars.
I thought about that too.
A website where the names of the worst business people are written down with an explanation and proof of what exactly they did that fucked everybody. Of course those people get tracked like the elon jet and the website shows the last known location.
Bonus points for operating it completely legal because privacy rights got eroded.
Would love to see what happens.
The point is to make things less bad. The oil mafia likes doomers who have already given up.
Short of blowing up oil infrastructure, what else should I be doing? I already eat less meat, work from home, buy renewable electricity, have a heat pump, avoid driving when I can, vote regularly, and don’t fly and it’s still not enough.
Individual actions are a distraction. Only collective action can change the course of society.
I highly recommend looking into what local groups are working on this issue in your area and sign up.
I’ve been thinking that we need to create a voting block of people who will vote for climate emergency policies. Similar to how unions have political strength due to advising their members who to vote for, this organization would advise members on who in local elections is the best for positive climate initiatives.
I think a block of voters is needed because right now climate wasn’t even an issue in the US election. We need to organise so that these policies are a target for politicians looking to obtain votes.
pfft. im a doomer but im doing everything possible personally. reduce, reuse, recycle. just because I realize it won’t ultimately make a differnce im still not going to be any more responsible for this shitshow than I have to be.
