The climate change narrative insists that we are all doing something wrong. The results, they say, will be catastrophic for the planet. What we are doing wrong is: activities that put carbon dioxide into the atmosphere. That all of our private and public behaviors result in carbon dioxide emissions is pretty much true, but is carbon dioxide emission the worst thing the western consumer is doing environmentally speaking?
When is the last time you heard discussion of any other form of industrial pollution? The production of EV batteries is environmentally catastrophic. Most consumer electronics carry a similar pollution cost. While activists shout for us to stop using cars, disposable consumer products continue to dominate the market.
I’m not a fan of doomers, but I am concerned that we are covering up real ecological damage with the specter of climate change. Thoughts?
I'm not even talking landfill, I'm just talking about putting rubbish in trash cans, the times I've been in cities and felt dirty because there's half eaten fast food on the streets or plastic bags littering the ground, that probably affects the environment in just the natural wildlife in cities itself.
But land management is key, it's why the targeting of farmers reveals how much of a shit they really care about the environment.
Their goal isn't land management, it's land redistribution. Gaia will only be pleased if the right people are allowed to tend to her fields... or something.
And yeah, Leftists don't pick up after themselves, why would they. Abandoning responsibility is a feature.
