The older I get, the more fatalist I become about climate change.

Honestly, we've missed the boat on this. We're fucked and there's nothing we can do about it.

And anyone who says that you can make a difference is talking out their arse. The actual useful things you can do are:

1: have less (preferably no) children. This dwarfs any other action you can take by a factor of 5.
2: Switch to a plant-based diet
3: Stop flying

Ok, 1 is not going to happen. People are still having kids and there hasn't even been any serious public debate about this (despite it being the single most impactful thing any individual can do).

2 and 3 will help, but nowhere near enough.

The ONLY thing that could have saved us is what Extinction Rebellion are proposing: attack climate change on a total war footing. Convert the entire economy over to fixing this.

And it needed to happen a decade ago.

But our leaders ignored this, and now it's too late.

I feel bad for anyone who has kids, but frankly, I'm just hoping the worst of it doesn't kick in until I've kicked the bucket.

Don't leave the theater until the end credits roll.

Oh, I'll stick around... I'm just not expecting a happy ending.

Get me a popcorn with butter while you're up. Thanks.

No more butter... plant-based diet, remember?
Also, corn doesn't grow anymore.

You've already said that wouldn't help near enough. OH! And and a drink. Anything. Whatever you think is best.

It won't help, but by the end, there won't be a choice.

Also no beer... the hops are all dead.

If I told you that you were going to die in a car accident tomorrow, would that quell your worries about climate change?

Never acquired a taste for beer.

Well, it'd quell my worries as far as climate change affecting me.

But I'd still die feeling bad for everyone who was still around.

Why?

Basic human empathy?

I can't predict the future accurately, but I can say that there is a high probability (certainly more likely than not) that climate change is going to hit humanity hard.

Now I suspect we'll get through it. We've survived ice ages and so on. It's just gonna suck for a few decades/centuries.

In fact, the only real solution I see to climate change is to significantly extend the average human lifespan. If everyone alive was suddenly going to be here for the next 200 years, you might see some actual policy change at the highest levels.

In that case, you've got what it takes to get through whatever comes your way. Don't worry so much. You're missing the best parts of the movie.

Some popcorn?

John Oliver has fallen so far...

ChaosEngine + BSR - you guys crack me up, this one's going in the archives. Funny lads - Cheers*


*with honey mead of course, none of that hops and barley stuff. I mean, only if the bees can hold it together for few more months, 'cause it's either them or the frogs going first.

Thank you @bremnet, I see a lot of dead people in my job that have died in many different ways. I have never seen ANYONE that has died from laughing.

I'm out to change that.

Edit: May want to make a Dr.'s appointment. Just sayin'.

All is fine, settle down.
