We’re all human

Yeah, and a non-zero amount of humans are insufferable bastards bent on subverting, dismantling and exploiting society for their own gain.

Tell us all about it then, colonel

Considering their idea of peace is the total capitulation of their opponent and systematic erasure of its population, I dont see what tangible benefit inviting them would be.

Basic evolutionary and technological processes, I guess. Combustible fuels are the simplest step a species can take.

The evidence in the geological record shows that this level of ocean acidification has never been hit this quickly before. This level of ocean acidificaion is the highest its been in 300 million years and there is nothing indicating it has any intention of going down.

It's a great show, I've seen it. The problem is the rate of ocean acidification is unprecedented at this speed in our geological history, and that our current level hasn't been hit in 300 million years, and we're still trucking. This could create an irreversible change.

The other thing to factor in is this will be it for intelligent life. We won't get another chance at a species progressing the way we did because much of the world's easily accessible oil has been used up.

It can't be solved on an individual level, but that's exactly where it has to start. Any movement begins with one person convincing another, who convinces another, and so on until it weaves its way through the zeitgeist. Nothing will ever be accomplished if we just say "nuh uh, it's the companies and the government's fault!" Once a critical mass is reached, the corporations and governments will have to bow to the people's will or face a revolution. It's the only way it works, and it's the only way it has ever worked.

Nuclear power is opposed because people are afraid of it. People are not logical and they're definitely not smart, so when they think of a nuclear reactor, they imagine an atomic bomb blowing up over and over while it powers a generator, like a more powerful combustion engine.

Russia will simply destabilize anything it can. They tried to get all of Africa, but it turns out they can see through their bullshit like everyone else, so they've decided to fuck with a handful of countries instead. These countries, by the way, are often responsible for vast diamond mining operations, with Russia being the number one country for both sourcing and laundering blood diamonds on the planet.

The people organizing this shit are the ones who are becoming African mining oligarchs. It's essentially the same as Russia's attempted playbook in Ukraine.

No it will not. There is absolutely zero evidence of that, and if anything, the ocean warming levels point to the contrary. It can just as easily spiral into the opposite direction and create a greenhouse style system like you see on Venus. Even if we died today, biodiversity levels would take millions of years to get back to pre-industrial levels.

They will never collect. This is like busting a guy selling grams on the corner, releasing him the next day and claiming you've shut down the entire drug running operation.

These aren't some rinky dink operations, these are huge shell companies housed in office buildings with cubicles employing hundreds of scammers. It's part of an organized crime syndicate, and somewhere along the line there's some near-billionaire and a number of politicians behind the entire scheme. That's what they mean by the nebulous statement of it being "transnational."

Things will never get better. When we can't sustain an industrial society then people will start murdering each other for the dwindling resources we have left. This is the best it's going to ever be in anyone alive's lifetime.

Remember when climate change was identified for the past 60 years and people just ended up buying bigger houses, bigger cars, and consuming more?

Awesome, hopefully they'll do it to all the others. Maybe take a few oligarch yachts with them along for the ride to the briny deep.

I didnt claim they were adorable all the time, but they're cute as shit when they're floating on their backs and washing themselves. Dolphins are cute too, and they'll rape anything that isn't bolted down.

They're fucking adorable, are you kidding me? That just doesn't bypass the fact that it's a wild animal that doesn't give a fuck about your instagram stories or your need to pet it.

What do you mean? I can't think of anything more stable than a grown man burning children's dolls on the internet after watching a movie based on a toy designed for 6-12 year old girls.

Christians are often times the least Christ-like people you'll ever meet.
