Subject: Re: [unSYSTEM] Your Thoughts on Extinction Rebellion?
Climate Change shit doesn't depend on projections of future population
growth, just continued production of existing fossil fuel infrastructure.
Very different from Malthusian nonsense agruments about exponential pop
growth. CC has literally zero to do with population (zero carbon lifestyles
exist), but only with coal oil and gas production (+ deforestation).
Problem is that literally every military in the world runs on oil and every
weapons manufacturing site runs on coal. Very unlikely to stop those
without total disruption of everything.
Also who cares about those 0.05% of your DNA that differ from any other
homo sapiens when we are at risk of extinction of all DNA based lifeforms
(small risk, but >100°C average surface temperature are a physically
possible outcome).
