So your plan to offset glaciers melting is to remove huge chunks of silt...underwater... and carry that silt to dry soil on the mainland, at a rate that matches glaciers melting.
That might be the dumbest thing I have ever heard
It is an impossible task anyway
To stop flooding by global warming
We're doomed
We can mitigate the doom. It’s not binary.
What's your plan
But not like that lol
My plan would be to heavily tax companies releasing greenhouse gasses, and to re enter the Paris climate agreement so that America can work towards reducing the rate at which the worlds temperature is increasing. We also need to start thinking about sea walls in certain locations. Taxing companies will cause unemployment, that’s unavoidable, but like you said the alternative is doom, so I’ll take some layoffs. Maybe create a program that gives workers laid off from those companies connections at green energy companies. Stop deforestation at all costs in the amazon and other heavily forested areas via political pressure on those companies. Heavily tax companies that excessively reduce forested areas and who also raise excessive amounts of cattle. There’s a lot of good ways to combat it but we need to get going.
It's not going to make a difference
It will be a drop of water in a sea
Well, this is what leading climate scientists recommend. And I’m going to take their word over yours every time.
Wow.
I thought lefties were nice and charming
Why’d you think that lol
But this is just scoffing
Because...
They present themselves as the good guys
Fighting off evil
Like evil fascism
Do you have a gf?
Yeah why
>we fix climate change by taxing everyone to death.
Are u a member of black blocs?
What’s that? No I guess
Antifa
Oh haha you can’t be a member of antifa
It’s not an organization like that
Well did you participate in antifa?
Nope. I’ve done a couple protests but nothing like that
Do you think we should seize the means of production?
Am I a socialist or communist you mean?
I don't do labeling
I appreciate that actually
stop all that CO2 bullshit and acctually focus on polution.
No, I don’t. Maybe a few particular industries, like internet and health care, but not much more than that
Cool
I believe capitalism promotes competition which helps markets. But needs to be well regulated.
Would you smash a Starbucks restaurant for the cause?
