Disaster is nearing. Mass displacement. Mass starvation. Mass death. It is all imminent. Do you understand?

That sound really bad. So then I have a couple questions.

  • do you support new nuclear power? How about if the plant will be built near where you live?
  • do you support Geo-engineering testing?

... if no then how could the consequences of that be worse then mass death and starvation?

Geo-engineering should be an absolute last resort and should not be considered viable until we are on the brink of destruction. We need to cut emissions not spray more chemicals into the sky because we're too fucking greedy to actually fix the problem.

Power generation is only one part of the problem, so I have questions for you. Do you support zoning reform? Do you support bike infrastructure and public transportation? Do you support spending billions on rail projects to curb plane use?

We can't techbro ourselves out of this problem, society needs to fundamentally change in order to solve climate change. Are you willing to change your way of life?

In short, yes, i support those other things.

... but back to the geo engineering are you saying that we aren't on the brink yet? Are you saying its not that bad?
