Yeah. That’s the sad part. I think most people sort of accidentally think that, without really critically thinking about it.
The people who will suffer most area already invisible to most others.
In NZ we’re trying to reduce carbon emissions in farming to the cries of farmers “but you’re killing our jobs” neglecting that they’re indirectly killing actual people.
In Europe over 60,000 people died in 2022 due to heatwaves.
People are blind to these deaths because they’re not being taken out by a single devastating event, but rather a series of small events the people brush off as “they were going to die anyway”.
It’s one of the reasons I’ve not, and will not have children. This is getting exponentially worse and I couldn’t image the horror that our future will face.
… meanwhile we’re compensating people who built $10m houses on cliff tops, who then cut down the trees securing the cliff edge, and are now finding out that cliffs erode, and their houses are failing into the sea.
… we’re exempting farmers from paying the actual costs of their carbon emissions while they pollute or water ways with reckless abandon. It’s only the poor fuckers down stream who’ll get sick and die.
… While we still argue if old and sick people should die of COVID so that fashion shops can still hock their tat manufactured halfway around the world and shipped here on ships that burn the shittiest fuel available.
I have had kids, and lament the world I’m giving to them.
That’s the irony. They are probably a lot of the people who contribute the least to climate change. So any misanthropes in here saying “good, this will help” are not only evil but wrong.
It’s OK, they’re just billion poorest people.
/S
This is literally how rich people will take this.
Until they realise that almost no production chains can continue without the hard work of the poorest at the beginning of the chain.
Perhaps then, they’ll finally get those robots we keep hearing about ;-)
Nah, they will just convert middle class to poor. Robots are for writing, painting…
“Too many people at my beach anyways.”
Too many, of the wrong people, at my beach.
You joke, but that is how a lot of people feel about it.
That is how conservatives feel about it. Normal people are unhappy.
Sadly conservative people have the money
And therefore the power.
Yeah. That’s the sad part. I think most people sort of accidentally think that, without really critically thinking about it.
