Let’s Assume its Real Let’s be honest. Most of the people reading this are not big climate change believers. Most of you don’t think Greta Thunberg is a modern day Joan of Ark, leading the righteous charge against those who wish to destroy us. Most of you think that she is a spoiled teenager who has never heard the word no… and has come up with the biggest con since the “sick day”. She’s decided she won’t go to school until people change the weather for her. Well… just to make sure you know where I’m coming from… I agree with you..
This reminds me of a book from Michael Crichton (State of Fear) fiction I know, but he underscored how climate activism is also a business and in it to make money. The short and skinny of it was: what would happen if a group of climate activists went off the rails and planned terrorist attacks that were disguised as climate change disasters, in order to gain more press? It was a good read.
Humans have been assholes to the world and I agree with Scott that all that plastic is terrible for the earth and everything that lives on it. we’ve done this to ourselves in order to make life a little easier. We are selfish asshats. But it’s not just people that bring about climate change: look at that mini ice age from the 13th to the 18th century that was the result of volcanic activity. Am I making excuses? Maybe!
Almost done: did you see HBOs Chernobyl? You must! Watch it, so so good. It did a nice job of linking the way a communist government “works” as the core (pun intended) reason for the accident.
What if we consider for a moment that the Earth is roughly 4.543 billion years old. I googled it. "Research" complete. I'm certain that the introduction of millions of tons of plastic into the world's water supplies have and will continue to have catastrophic effects for all of us, and I'll concede that burning fossil fuels hasn't been a model of environmental conservation. Have we considered the long game? Most humans are on the planet for less than 75 years. That's barely a proverbial blip on the radar when we consider the history of the plant.
