But we all gonna continue to live in denial that global warming doesn’t exist or isn’t significant yet. How bad is this going to be in 5-10 years time with the current rate at which humans are polluting the atmosphere lmao.
I try to focus on being happy and living my own life. These things are civilization level issues, and last 50 years have shown the civilization’s fundamental incapability to face the issue, let alone attempt to solve it at any meaningful scale.
IMO there is nothing wrong with attempting to minimize one’s own carbon footprint, but the futile attempt to push for more significant changes will just lead to disappointment
Thing to keep in mind on this is that it’s a national regulatory decision based on an EU regulatory decision, and it is expected to be just the first of several more like it to come from it. Meaning, it is likely to spread and it is likely to escalate over time. And even if it’s just an added cost of doing business, it does impact the financial viability of Facebook surveillance-capitalistic model.
This is ridiculous and sad. Cheers to the helpers who managed to get a few of them back into the ocean. It breaks my heart to know the majority just stranded and died on the beach.
