Romulox28 posted... my take is that very few people truly give a shit about climate change, it's just the slacktivist cause de jour le enlightened centrism one side is clearly doing more to combat it and tons of people care deeply, have you seen the protests? but both sides i guess "I care, so long as I don't have to do anything more that complain about the problem and maybe give up something stupid like plastic straws." My attitude isn't partisan. It's based on a lifetime in non-profit fundraising. You get a lot of support for the idea, then note the road runner shaped cloud that disappears into nothing when the work starts. My mom found a lot of support in meetings when fundraising was her job, but at the activity the only people there were welfare recipients there for the free meal that came with the work. I said it yesterday and I'll repeat myself: if the energy and manpower spent protesting was put into a measurable clean-up effort, we'd have far fewer cities known for shit in the streets. But protesting is more fun and doesn't involve touching garbage, so guess what we get and how little actually gets done. --- http://backloggery.com/reddthesock <cite>lightwarrior78 posted [p:927939069] in The commie...
