    Yeah, An Inconvenient Truth came out 17 years ago and it was already an old debate then.

      Yep … I feel it’s one of those things that people should really consider to recalibrate how the feel about the issue …

      It’s an old and well known problem on which the world has been dragging its heels for ages. That the world has taken so long to do anything substantial, and danced around what needs to be done for so long will be a really bad look from the future looking back.

      Like, think Germans during the Nazi holocaust and the question of whether any of them did enough or the right thing.

      Think grand-children asking you what you did and why you didn’t do more. What excuse did you have when all the information was easy to get?

        in my case, I don’t have the energy or funds to effectively resist. I want to do more but can’t

          I’m sorry to hear … and I hope you’re doing ok! Which I say with empathy/understanding BTW (I too wish I could do more).

        Mainstream media doesn’t relay the info enough, and you need to go out of your confort zone to read about it. Multiple problems about why.

          Hell, mainstream media doesn’t relay MOST info enough or well enough.

          Who could have known that the entire mainstream media landscape being owned by a few billionaires and barely regulated, except for draconian measures to avoid the depiction of certain parts of human anatomy and colorful language, would have editorial consequences?? 😮‍💨
