:wow-two-cakes:
I got better, more efficient, and environmentally friendly idea that produces organic fertilizer!
damn I came in here to just say "Yes" but I like your idea.
72% is shockingly high tbh. Makes me think the question wasn't phrased well. Or maybe the chuds in other G20 countries don't shit their pants if you mention that climate change is real?
Occam's Razor. "Should we send politicians to jail--" "Yes" "--for climate crimes? "
We can see the phrasing, at least in English:
It should be a criminal offence for leaders of large businesses or senior government officials to approve or permit actions they know are likely to cause damage to nature and climate that is widespread, long term or cannot be reversed
The responses “Strongly agree” and “Tend to agree” with the statement are the 72%
that they know
How do we prove, definitively, what they knew at the time?
Looking at their emails and other messages to see if those risks were communicated and ignored. Forcing them to produce documents researching and stating their potential impact before they're allowed to undergo certain actions. Using common sense like "dumping garbage in a river is bad".
Prison?
"Prison" is what I named this bottomless pit I found.
A environmentally safe, deep underground, long-term storage solution for dangerous waste.
we should call it club 33 and charge people $50k to enter
Damn, with that kind of broad public support I'm sure we'll see a proposal to form a committee to decide on a schedule for forming an investigative branch to define a legislative framework to implement such a program before 2050!
