minus-squareRageAgainstTheRich@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up19arrow-down4·6 months agoYeah 1.5 is fucked. But we can still limit it under 2.0 or 2.5. Yes it is fucking horrific. But 1.5 does not mean everyone suddenly drops dead. Also, the world isnt the US. Improvements are happening on a smaller scale. Some countries getting almost all energy through solar and wind. Green energy becoming cheaper than fossil fuel. Is it enough? Fuck no. But im not letting you cunts hop in with corporations and push the pedal to the metal. Stop ignoring all the positive things happening to fix the climate. You are putting other people off helping with your doomer shit.
