Doomerism
(lemmy.world)
Discussion of climate, how it is changing, activism around that, the politics, and the energy systems change we need in order to stabilize things.
As a starting point, the burning of fossil fuels, and to a lesser extent deforestation and release of methane are responsible for the warming in recent decades:
How much each change to the atmosphere has warmed the world:
Recommended actions to cut greenhouse gas emissions in the near future:
Anti-science, inactivism, and unsupported conspiracy theories are not ok here.
I don't know what you think that chart proves, but it's not that climate change is slowing...
And you're completely ignoring all the pollution and fossil fuels that go into mining, refining, and transporting the rare earth minerals needed for batteries...
Like, you literally did the only thing I could be done, after I explained how that wouldn't be proof:
You don't know what you're talking about, but you're optimistic, I'll give you that.
Won't do you any good. But feel free to ignore reality while you sit back and claim everything is fine.
It proves that work is being done by showing how many places have transitioned almost entirely to renewables for power generation. You said show evidence that governments are doing something, I provided.
Things aren't fine, but succumbing to doomerism guarantees the worst case outcome. The more people continue to try, the less bad things get.
Welp, I tried...
Luckily there's one more strategy I know will work

It's a good thing the people trying to remove the problematic components from things like EVs don't listen to doomers like you.
This probably going to bring back bad memories from yesterday for you, but I'm sure I'm not the only person taking this option to avoid talking to you
Good. Keep your doomerism to yourself.
