The powers that be want to create artificial shortages of everything we use so they can control us
that’s why no one’s talking about climate change anymore. 1. because it’s obviously bullshit and was only ever going to be used as an excuse to turn every free country into a dictatorship
and 2. because of the massive amounts of electricity and water the data centers will use when they’re built
What? you actually believe in climate change? You must be pretty young. In my lifetime I’ve been told there’s a hole in the ozone layer that’s going to cause the end of the world 30 years ago and that there isn’t going to be any ice in the polar regions by 16 years ago.
But the same people who told me that have gigantic mansions with 4 industrial AC units each on beachfront property who also own multiple private jets. “oh but I bought carbon offsets” No, they get to write that off on their taxes, WE paid for their indulgences
It’s like a church charging YOU for an indulgence that someone else gets to benefit from
Mate… We fixed the hole in the ozone layer because it was going to kill us… That’s literally one of the best examples of people coming together to solve a global problem.
We had a real problem. Everyone agreed its a problem. Then implemented a long term fix and everyone stuck with it.
You can take the tinfoil hat off. Shit ain’t that deep.
My brother in Christ, the hole in the ozone layer fixed itself because we as a race decided to listen to scientists and ban the shit causing it pretty much world wide. A full on concerted effort backed by science. What the fuck.

I won’t dignify the rest of that sentence by quoting any further. You have literally the entire world’s knowledge at your fingertips and instead you sit there being a fucking moron.
Climate change is real and catastrophic, demands radical and urgent change, and has been globally recognized by scientists for decades. The ways many corporations and governments have framed it, and the non-action disguised as action they have promoted, are self-serving bullshit. You are throwing the baby out with the bathwater.
TF are you on about. We’re in the middle of the strongest El Nino ever recorded. We have giant uncontrollable wildfires all over the planet, and they are getting more and more common. France used to get a major wildfire every few decades, now it’s like every 2 to 3 years. Europe keeps breaking temperature records basically every summer now.
I can keep going. You are just a dumbass that lives under a rock if you can’t see what’s happening around you.
I’m an Australian,
The hole in the ozone layer was a real threat and my skin was definitely negatively affected by the amount of UV I was exposed to.
When it was publicised, we saw a social and commercial shift in use of CFCs.
Aerosol cans with CFCs were removed and recycled (probably generating more waste, but whatever).
Mechanics and technicians working on A/Cs and fridges were much more careful with refrigerant.
10 years later, when the Hole recovered, we anecdotally observed less cases of severe sunburn. It may have also been a social awareness thing: with more people using Sunscreen et al, but the measurable reducing in UV was undoubtedly also a factor.
The benefit of removing airborne heavy metals (Pb-based paint and exhaust) is less measurable,but I feel that people with less exposure in their lifetime were more cognitive.
I also deal with a few people in my life who are CC denialists. They are also Y2K denialists so maybe they were exposed to significantly more lead paint than me…

… you know we fixed the hole in the ozone, tight? Montreal protocol?
Safe to say it seems you have no idea what you are talking about.
Anthropogenic climate change is very real and anyone still in denial about it is worse than a Flat-Earther.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Montreal_Protocol - a problem being fixed doesn’t mean there was never a problem.

It’s so catastrophic that no one who screams about it can point to anything that’s actually happening or has happened because of it
Have you been outside in the last four years

I was gonna say, I bet this person also thinks that Y2K was overblown and that the polio vaccine was worthless.
