NOW!
When the thousand years have expired
Satan will be released!
Judgement has come to you

I feel fear, but the old, wealthy, and powerful do not care what I feel or what happens to me or to the younger generation.

Fear, it can legitimately lead to the end of humans.

At the same time that gives me slight peace, at least the plan can rebound when we are gone. Plus, I dont have kids, and things should be normal enough at least for the rest of my life.

Holy crap.

First, it's a fucking hoax. https://www.rt.com/news/464051-finnish-study-no-evidence-warming/

Second, have children. Third, you don't live for yourself. Fourth, have children. So you can know what it means to live.

Correction: were talking about trying to live on Mars. We have been talking about it since I was a little kid, just like weve been talking about nuclear fusion and ending world hunger.

People who are worried or have dedicated their lives to climate change are utterly silly.

Climate change is happening. With or without humans it happens. It is accelerated by humans...

But it takes thousands of years, if not tens of thousands of year to actually occur.

Want to know a much, much, much bigger problem that will actually literally affect your children??

...Try overpopulation.

Even if we stopped air pollution...CO2, CH4, H2O...completely, any rogue volcano could instantly make Earth barely habitable with heat overnight. By fighting climate change one is working on a thousand year solution that will reap benefits very slowly.

Meanwhile, Earth's carrying capacity will be reached in 50 years and there will be all out war over basic things like water.

Which sounds like the bigger issue?

Liberal media is wonky in what they choose to support.

Overpopulation is not preventable. Sex is just too good

well-off people have fewer children and better access to contraceptives

there may be a correlation

I have no children, and never will, but if having one is what it takes to "know what it means to live", I hope l never find out

10 in 2010 was bullshit, but importantly, even were it to have happened, it wouldn't have caused shit.

We're nowhere near a K1 situation, where we're maxed out on what the planet can offer.

Earth isn't Courscant, and no we're not overpopulated.

Fair point- the hope is that if we improve most of the world with access to contraceptives (among other things) we could maybe avoid the overpopulation problem

Not sure about the overall climate change thing
