"Scientists synthesize nutrients Bees no longer get because humans destroyed all the flowers, and we think this is a net good."
Yeah. That's unfortunate. An absolute travesty. But we've found a way to fix what we have fucked up. And that's good. Don't minimalize it.
We've broken the system. That sucks. But we've found a way to fix it for now. Not as good, but we are trying to do something.
Give some credit to the folks that are trying to fix our fuck ups. God damn it some people have realized what a mess we've made and are trying to do something to fix it. Small wins may just save our asses if we let them stack up enough.
Don't be unnecessarily negative about this. The people trying to figure this out want to make things good again. Destroying the planet is easy. Fixing it is alot harder!
This isn't fixing. This is a bandaid for some symptoms because god forbid we stop burning the planet to the ground.
They’ve done far more than you have so far. And maybe because of it some bees will still be around to benefit when people “stop burning the planet to the ground”. Turns out both ecology and environmentalism is more than performative statements.
