You'll be dead, I'll be dead, we'll all be dead from other reasons long before this ever slightly matters. And as you stated. Even if everyone on the planet went cold turkey today. It still doesn't matter. So what's the point? What happens happens. Personally I believe this is all overblown bs. Like how I've been listening to how all the oil will be gone in ten years since the 80s. And that shit actually started in the 70s. Or how all the rainforest will be gone in ten years since the 80s. --- FFVII Remake: A disaster in the making.

"That's the one way out we still might take -- but only if our governments take full advantage of the breakthroughs our engineers have produced." This plus electric vehicles + smart grids can solve the problem before it becomes catastrophic. We just need to believe and invest heavily. More heavily than we invest in anything else. We need to treat this fucker like war-time mobilization, but geared towards renewable energy instead. Except corporations andctheir lobbyst wont make them happen. We brought it to ourselves, we deserve to go down slowly and painfully. Fuck everything Imagine literally believing this kind of defeatist horse shit. You can go ahead and stay on the side lines while the rest of us work at making it better. Your kind's done a real good job of that so far. How many years did you jerk off President Bush on CE while he was pulling us out of Kyoto Clad, you asinine hypocrite. Even now you'll go down in flames defending your irresponsible devotion to unchecked unregulated free markets. Do you really think people are going to look back on laissez faire fondly when two billion people are dead because of itn uh you have me confused with someone else, dude. i just googled president bush's response to the kyoto protocol. when that shit was happening, i was still young enough to be watching magic school bus in middle school. <cite>Transcendentia posted [p:883925520] in Two new cl...
