That’s why I’m enjoying climate change coverage so much.
Non-binding feel good agreements, capitalist snake oil to sell yet another vaporware “solution” to the problem their greed caused and continues to cause, constant reframing of new, increasingly dire projections as we blow through red lines.
"Oh hey, it’s me, job creator billionaire at your service.
I know we knew what emissions were doing and covered it up to keep profits rolling in for decades, but I have the solution to the problem, and yes I sell it, let me introduce you to corn based ethanol!clean coal! planet scale carbon filters! Will that be cash or charge?"
All the while, as I read, I chuckle at humans doing what they do best, trying to delude themselves into ignoring reality, as if they’re trying to bargain with the physical reality humanity has created eyes wide open. Our reverse terraforming of Earth doesn’t care why we did it, or the bullshit we lie to ourselves about it though. It’s here.
It’s better in the long run too, if we accelerate hard enough, maybe there wont be enough of our cockroach species left to rebuild and forget all the lessons of what we did as is tradition and inflict ourselves on this planet and all other life on it again.
