What if…
Without some sort of violent revolution, we won’t, or time runs out but it’s not a movie and there’s no ship to another planet.
Revolutions take over where reason stops. The people in power have the means to do the right thing, but sometimes they look out for a few people and will destroy thousands. That’s not a good option, as people get more desperate
Climate change is not something that has a simple solution to it and governments just refuse to do so for whatever reason. That’s a naive view that ignores all the complexity of this issue.
For example: stopping all carbon emissions is not going to stop climate change. Not only do you need to become carbon-neutral but you also need to get all the excessive carbon out of the atmosphere. How?
If there’s ever a time when it’s justified, it’s when our very existence is at stake.
No one wants it but at this point it might be unavoidable since after days of unprecedented heatwave and over 100°F water temperatures have prompted zero response from the powers that be, meaning there is still pushback from the wealthy who have become rich from fossil fuels.
