Amidst all the Marie Antoinette privileged bullshit on the Internet, there is nothing quite as obscene to me as climate doomerism.

@dneary Dave, I am not sure how "I cannot stand climate doomerism" post came across to you as "please tell me your climate doomer theory".

@evan Meaning people who say "we're past the tipping point anyway, so fuck it"? I'm not quite there, but I do feel like I don't know how we get there from here - especially when so much public policy is generating carbon dioxide. I feel like fission, bridging to sustainable fusion, is the best way to reduce emissions, but I'm not sure my voice matters in that.

@dneary It's not a game you win or lose. Every single thing we do to reduce emissions and adapt to the effects of climate change will save some of the hundreds of millions of human lives and billions of other living things that will otherwise be lost. People around the world are doing the work.

@dneary if you need help understanding what needs to be done, I highly recommend Project Drawdown:
