In which scenario do you think that you're gonna live for longer and/or with a higher quality of life.

  • Mass blowing up and destruction of fossil fuel infrastructure
  • The status quo

Think about the implications of each scenario and let me know.

I think you're an idiot if you think it's the status quo. Even if we stopped producing fossil fuels tomorrow its too late to undo what we've already set in motion anyway.

If we stopped producing fossil fuels tomorrow, you don't think they're gonna be mass famines and global economic collapse?

We depend so much already on fossil fuels. The solution is to invest more into renewables and plastic alternatives, not to rip it out without proper work to avoid disaster.

I'm sorry if I gave you the impression that I could be swayed either way. I think climate collapse is inevitable and out of human hands at this point. Have a nice life pal ✌️
