Not givin’ up
You have two options:
Kill industry
Isolated compound
Neither is guaranteed to pay off.
There’s loads of options.
Plenty of science that could potentially save us if invested properly.
Lab grown meat. Carbon capture. Using said carbon capture for building materials. Nuclear fusion. Outer atmosphere energy generation. Etc.
There’s also cutting back on our consumerism.
Once it gets bad enough that it affects the super rich the world’s governments will miraculously and quickly act as one.
Friendly reminder that we have already identified and largely fixed a climate change problem, the depletion of the Ozone layer, and we can fix other problems too:
The Montreal Protocol is considered the most successful international environmental agreement to date. Following the bans on ozone-depleting chemicals, the UN projects that under the current regulations the ozone layer will completely regenerate by 2045, thirty years earlier than previously predicted.
do people think all doomers just don’t try. I reduce, reuse, recycle and you betcha I enjoy the heck out of every piece of nature I can get to by foot or bike. If I was in a falling elevator I would most assuredly try to jump at the last second.
It’s not about fixing the problem anymore.
It’s about staying alive to watch bad things happen to bad people.
