CayceG Posted May 19, 2021 Share Posted May 19, 2021 Yikes. This is... not good. Clearly this won't happen. So our 2050 goals become our 2080 goals. And 2 degrees C becomes 3 degrees C becomes 4 degrees C. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mclumber1 Posted May 19, 2021 Share Posted May 19, 2021 I'm disappointed that the administration isn't going nuclear on nuclear power. It's the only carbon-neutral energy source that can provide baseload generation at the current moment. Yes, nuclear power is a part of Biden's overall infrastructure/energy plan, but it should be at the top of list in terms of funding and fast tracking.

It's bad but it's the Democrats' fault. 3. Doesn't matter Jesus is coming soon.

Greatoneshere Posted May 21, 2021 Share Posted May 21, 2021 But I was told climate change won't be an ELE. How about something close to an ELE? Like one or two steps down? Sounds like humanity is screwed to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Might even be electronic dinosaurs and shit. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ricofoley Posted October 19, 2021 Share Posted October 19, 2021 Start of the CNN story: Quote In a blow to the climate movement, US power companies are ramping up their coal consumption due to surging natural gas prices. News outlets need to stop using phrasing like "In a blow to the climate movement," for this stuff. If you believe in the science, then it's a blow to the ability for human civilization to continue to exist for the next century. If you don't believe in the science just nut up and write that down so people know where you stand. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We were always fucked, because you can't convince large amounts of people to care about any topic for more than 24-48 hours, even if it's life or death, and especially if it involves issues more than a few weeks away. However, the planet itself (and the species) is not doomed, life will simply change. For most that will mean it will get worse, but...well, life has always been pretty shitty for the human species.
