It’s just a question of how bad we’ll have it at this point.

As individuals we can try, but the average population is too selfish and isn't going to stop until it's too late

Between the likes of pollution, deforestation, wars, extinction of species to name a few...the only thing that could save this planet is humanity somehow becoming infertile.

The average population isn't too selfish, the 1% is.

They wouldn't have made it to the richest 1% if they weren't so selfish, and now they have great power over us all, especially regarding the climate.

Above a certain threshold there will be no discernible difference in the outcome to our civilisation.

The planet is fine. The people are fucked. G. Carlin was and is right.

the two greatest things you can do for climate change: Live vegan, and not have children.

Actual greatest thing you could do for climate change: destroy the US military industrial complex. Not only is it a massive polluter, it also enables the capitalists to maintain their ability to extract fossil fuels and other resources around the world.

Quit it with the anti-human shit. If we’re not saving the environment for us what’s the point?

We're on course for our oceans to acidify and air to be unbreathable in many places before the end of the century.

It doesn't get a lot worse than that

I mean its a nice opinion but I woul disagree with the first part. The second I would agree with but more in the same way that if you are an army facing a far superior army that will not accept surrender but kill every one of you horribly you will want to fight to your last breath.
