1) Mankind has survived far worse with far less technical capability. <- This is a false argument. Technical capability depends on resources and never before has the world had fewer resources. Technical expression is using tools. Tools work on resources. The population of the world is in overshoot and never before has so little planet had to feed so many.
2) Mankind cannot suck CO2 out of the atmosphere. Political will has nothing to do with it, but science and available resources has everything to do with it. Science and resources say no. We are already fracking rock and boiling sand to get oil and after that all we have left are unicorns.
It is a childish fantasy to think we have the energy resources and the technical expertise to remove CO2 from the atmosphere To reduce C02 by 0.01% would require the sequestration of one billon tons of carbon. At my leisure I will verify the quantitative accuracy of that statement and figure out how big a pile of coal that would be the same as. Geoengineering is a cornucopian fantasy. And as suffering increases political DOES NOT will increase. Confusion and chaos size the day as suffering increases. Often starting wars. Your last claim was nothing more than a wish.
3) This statement has no basis in physical reality whatever. The evidence that climate change is real is now unquestionable and we have no viable solutions to address that problem at this time. As we have a society with a rigid class structure America does not have the social machinery to address the climate emergency.
4)You should be more worried about an asteroid strike. Now that would really fuck us up.You should be more worried about an asteroid strike. Now that would really fuck us up. <---------- I am going to side with Epictetus
"That alone is in our power, which is our own work; and in this class are our opinions, impulses, desires, and aversions. On the contrary, what is not in our power, are our bodies, possessions, glory, and power. Any delusion on this point leads to the greatest errors, misfortunes, and troubles, and to the slavery of the soul"
Being upset over what you have no power over is the occupation of a fool. You have no power over an asteroid strike.
PS : The banana equivalent to Covid-19 is spreading to new countries, forcing the industry to change how the world’s most widely eaten fruit is farmed and even how it could taste. That is a BBC headline.
And PS PS : You are welcome to look at my matrix of links by which you can explore the climate emergency and diffuse your ignorance. The blinking colored bubbles below the virtual city header on top are all links. Roll your mouse over the hexagonal colored bubbles and websites appear in a text box below the graphic. Don't be offended that you are not yet in the list. I just found out about you.
