Well, I mean the limit to stop ****ing up the planet an irreversible amount was like, pre-2000.

We're at like, the 3rd line of "we should stop before this becomes a problem", but we have those 2 lines of "this is gonna be bad" still coming.

And the 2030 deadline is basically the limit for the "HOLY **** GUYS WHY AREN'T YOU DOING ANYTHING" catastrophe. that's when the ice caps are done and like praries become deserts and Florida is basically guaranteed to be swallowed up by the ocean.

Yeah but humans haven't been here the whole time and humans haven't been changing it forever. Both of those things are new and things our modern context of "climate change" is addressing.

The planet earth and its climate will still be here in 300 years, the question is just "do we want society to be there too?"

It is impossible to square Democrats' largely correct rhetoric on climate change with their actions.

True, but there are a couple of issues with this. The current rate of change is unmatched in observed history with the exception of extraterrestrial impact or supervolcanic eruption. We're very quickly headed for conditions that aren't conducive to human society continuing to exist, relatively speaking.

And due to the way these feedback loops work a lot of people are already fucked

No matter what we do now, things are going to get worse. But we have some control over how much worse things get. 3 degrees warming by 2100 is a lot better than 4 degrees, and 2 is even better than 3.

You're acting like their doing so for no reason. It's to fulfill their consumers desires, nothing more or less. And you're blaiming this on just a handful of companies? Are you serious?

It took the combined effort of all humanity over a century to achive. So get out with this scapegoating garbage.

The large corporations laregly don't care because most of these climate crises will affect largely poor people before they're affected. As long as they can squeeze the well dry before they face any impact then they don't care.

I think that the ten year notice is more so how if we don't do anything by ten years, x amount of damage will be irreversible. Also though 0-2 years is technically less than ten years. Just a lot less. So is negative ten or 20 years.

If anything he should've said that we're almost 10-20 years late on this by low standards though

They know what they're doing.

Holding corporations accountable for literally anything is a death sentence for any politician which is why govt always gaslights regular Americans into "picking up the slack" for things way beyond their control while the world burns.

Because all the clean-shaven, suit wearers with contact lenses are the ones who put their boot on the neck of environmental reform.

Such a shame.

Exactly its all hot air to make themselves look good while pocketing money. They know time is going to be up soon and thats why you see Elon Musk and that other dude making space rockets.

Your big plan is to go "guess we're dead"? If it was actually just nature your big plan would be for the human race to roll over and die? That's what I don't get the most about the alt right response.

If it was happening for no reason and the planet was trying to kill us within ten years to thirty years everyone would be panicking the fuck over it, bit because it's our fault were conditioned to ignore it.

This is the issue we need to address, right here.

Climate change doesn't mean the Earth is dying. Earth will continue on, it doesn't particularly give a fuck. Things will change for it, but it will be fine. What species there are and what is dominant will change, bit earth will keep on earthing.

We are what will die off. Humanity. If we pushed that people may be a little more inclined to get off their asses.

Yes it is mostly corporations
Yes most of the stuff created by corporations goes to the consumer eventually
Yes there still is a lot of waste in corporations that doesn't have any consumer benefit
Yes we suck at holding corporations accountable and need to do better
Yes they're assholes for trying to put the blame on ordinary people
Yes you should still reduce/reuse/recycle as much as you can

I believe all of the above things are true at the same time
