  It was the “what-ifs” that did it for me.

  Very boring stuff.

  We will not solve it, it’s way too late. Still, every 0.01°C additional warming counts. People not born yet will suffer more from everything we don’t do now. So, rolling on your back and giving up is not helping at all. Going vegan is a great easy first step to make a difference. Blow up pipelines after that. :)

  Have you heard of the experiment with swimming rats and how much longer they swam when given hope? We need hope to survive.

  Though they don’t say we will solve it, but that we can solve it if we start now.

  They don’t say that, though?

  They say things like “with effort, we can solve climate change, or minimise its effects.”

  Which is very different. And personally, I hate over the top doomerism where everyone says everything is fucked beyond repair all the time.

    I’m pretty sure they do say that, almost exactly.

  Good news, this video is not very optimistic

  There’s nothing helpful about giving up though is there.

  And we could stop climate change, it’s entirely possible, presumably people don’t want to die so they will take action but they probably not going to start to act until climate change becomes more apparent, that’s depressing but that’s human nature. Humans have a long history of making radical changes at the last minute, e.g the cold war.

  We like to go right up to the cliff edge but we tend not to take the final step.

  After all even China is cleaning up its act and they’re the least likely to be cooperative so if even they’re doing something about it there’s hope.

  capitalism will solve climate change

  Tangential, but thats what disgusted me about the Osaka world expo. The theme was sustainability so you had fossil fuel companies presenting wildly impractical “solutions” and art projects. The message was “things are under control, continue sleepwalking into oblivion”
