I've backslid into a pretty doomer mindset recently with everything going on, but this thread has helped refocus some of my perspective. A community like this is very nice, I appreciate you all. I'm gonna work on it.

Your chad levels are off the charts πŸ“ˆ

Nihilism is pointless. Pick up the slack pessimists.

I'd like to point out that "do what you can" doesn't even necessarily mean trying to prevent or impede climate change directly. It can also mean building community and providing comfort and protection from the worst effects of climate change to the people you care about.

Exactly, well said chad πŸ’ͺ

I planted 3 trees this week and have been making biochar in winter when fire restrictions are lifted.

[–] LibertyLizard@slrpnk.net 5 points 4 days ago (2 children)

Nice work! Keep at it!

I’m hoping to plant some more trees this season but don’t know where yet. Will have to do some more scouting.

I'm just about out of space on my property until my nursery trees are mulched for soil so I'm currently in the market for endemic natives to guerilla garden with.

I just want people to go vegan because it's so easy, healthy and the right thing to do if you dare to look at it. Simply the most powerful powermove any random chad can do instantly.

[–] Sunshine@lemmy.ca 2 points 2 days ago

All gigachads are vegan!

Some of my fellow punks do not agree. They want this peaceful utopia for themselves, but not their fellow earthlings. Burning lush forests, polluting delicate ecosystems for feed, slitting throats in chains by the billions in factories of misery, exploitation and annihilation.
Every single one of you can end a tiny bit of this horror instantly. A true chad does what they can, until they like a taste too much.

Thank you Chad πŸ’ͺπŸ’ͺπŸ’ͺ

I’d classify myself as a β€œreluctant doomer”. I try to minimize my environmental impact and encourage others to do the same, but privately, I think we’re fucked. I act like my assumptions are wrong, though. I hope I am.

[–] KeenFlame@feddit.nu 4 points 3 days ago

You should research, since this is an oil industry astroturfing lie that has taken hold and it is devastating as you can see. You may drop the doomer part and prevent the spread of misinformation as one of your environmental care tasks

Doing what I can still basically feels like doing nothing anyway. Like when you finish a mission in Helldivers and it shows how much your team contributed to the total effort.

The tare machine: "You have used a reusable bag for a decade and recycled every recyclable object you bought after using it until it was unuable. You have decreased the effect of climate change by 0.00000000125%."

Me: Yay! I'm helping! πŸ₯Ή

You’re helping!

Idk, people who were safe in western states called me a doomer and got mad at me for my sadness being unproductive while a hurricane killing people and flattening neighboring towns. No one is an effective activist 100% of the time, maybe let people grieve for five seconds.

[–] RideAgainstTheLizard@slrpnk.net 1 points 3 days ago (1 children)

It's even more chadlike to fall and get back up

[–] Alice 1 points 3 days ago

I mean, sure, it's not like I died from crying
