      I’ve come to terms with the idea that it would take close to some sort of Biblical miracle to save the climate because you’d have to get nearly everyone, unanimously backing it to get anywhere and that includes the corporations causing it.

      People have to get to work, the tasks have to get done, hospitals have to run, the wheel has to keep turning. If we broke from our human nature and became a hivemind dedicated to solving the problem, we might have time to develop methods of growing food that aren’t entirely dependant on the weather outside, but it’s gonna happen. The glaciers are melting, the methane is releasing and it’s getting faster every single day and soon, in less than 30 years, billions are going to die of starvation or war due to shortages.

      The good news? The good news is that I’m 37.

      Green energy and infrastructure are two separate things. That you have to hammer them together to make a bad faith argument is telling.

      In addition, it could potentially even undo some of the emissions reductions

      Could. Potentially. And if you read how they did their figuring yeah it’s no surprise they keep inserting words like “could”. Then certain people read it and think that means “is”.

      But in any case green energy and infrastructure are two separate things.

      And back to this post, what’s Trump doing? Line item is Zero.
