Oh no, they're not just going to let it happen. They'll actively stop us from solving it.

I bought this stock from a company called planter or something, it's going crazy lately

[-] LowtierComputer@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

This is so clever and I think most people are missing the joke.

[-] Whostosay@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 month ago

I feel seen thanks homie

I don’t care where that money comes from.

Unless it's renewable energy tech, then fuck it, those shitheads can rot in hell!

Well im not having solar panels near my town. They'll absorb all the sunlight and it'll be dark!

Windmills slow the planet down!!!

[-] CannonFodder@lemmy.world 3 points 3 months ago

But wouldn't it be nice if there was more time in a day?

[-] atro_city@fedia.io 12 points 3 months ago

And they'll put more of us on the planet too, because it's so wonderful here.

[-] Muffi@programming.dev 11 points 3 months ago

But the windmills will kill all the birds (that there are none left of)!

[-] Pat_Riot@lemmy.today 4 points 3 months ago

Not real ones, anyway

Solving? There's an undeniable solution that has been there as long as the problem has

That would help, but definitely not stop climate change.

[-] bear@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 3 months ago

Sure, taking your foot off the accelerator doesn't technically stop the car.

Either you ration things that warm the planet, or you find a way to cool it directly? Neither of these options can be done at a large enough scale.

Humans have never been good at constraining cultures that gorge on a limited buffet of resources.

[-] Cruel@programming.dev 1 points 3 months ago

Implementing climate control will be costly and is still controversial, especially proposed solutions that require polluting the stratosphere with chemicals.

I'm still optimistic about geoengineering research.

Of course, nobody will want to foot that bill until they're staring the threat in the eyes.

[-] Whostosay@sh.itjust.works 2 points 3 months ago

There's a pretty public list of who owns the most resources

[-] devfuuu@lemmy.world 1 points 3 months ago

I'm in favor of completely remove the humans. We should have the tech already.
