My only wish is that people had the ability to care and therefore "wake up". Outside of 0.2% of the global population, they don't and they won't. Our brains are, overall and by mass majority, as dead as the reef is about to be.

I fucking love Adam. I wondered where he went. Thanks!

I'm not vegan but I agree with all of this. Industrialization was the most stupid and evil thing mankind had ever done and it just gets worse and worse. Until things change, death and extinctions are imminent.

People are really inconsistent in general. Most people don't seem to have a defined moral code even when they're religious. This is a really good example of the issue, though. I've seen this too and it's hella frustrating. I don't know if there's really a solution. Capitalism encourages this phenomena though, for sure.

Plastic manufacturing and pollution hurts the entire world, including what is basically lobbyists that they let in to derail the conversation. 99% of plastic production should have ceased 10 years ago. This article made me cry (but thank you for sharing).

I wish you much luck! <3

That anybody can disagree with this is truly flabbergasting. China should not be the sole decider of whether our planet lives or dies. I don't... I don't get how anyone, even the Chinese, can disagree with that.

Update: I think it's the petrochemical industry. They've corrupted all the green energy focused subs here super badly from what I've seen so far. I think we've caught their attention already - which may actually be a good sign. We must be doing something effective enough to warrant it.

A good solution to this is for less dependency on them. This is the nature of them taking too much, and that's just... really not going to work out great for them, nor anyone.

I am constantly dumbfounded how many of the highly capitalist nations pretend to have such a focus on family when it's so clear that they care so little about them. More time working = less time with your family. They also push for bigger families too, so that individual children receive even less attention. It's so weird.

I hate TikTok but to disallow them to use it or any social platform just due to being prisoners is incredibly fucked up. America's prison population is a huge percentage of the population. You can't silence people this way. This is beyond evil when a large amount of prisoners have arguably been wrongly or unfairly incarcerated. Let's not forget how many innocent black men have been arrested and killed by the police. Some states arrest people just for being homeless. We're also seeing mass arrests of protestors right now due to the genocide and war protestor arrests are common in contemporary American history. The Supreme Court is going to have to step in on this. Wish we didn't have such a shitty Supreme Court gang right now. Hell, they'll probably support it. This country is ruined.

I get where you're coming from. It's a tandem tech and should stay in that consideration. It's a diversity of tactics in the fight against petrochems. That industry is too big for just one avenue, at least of the ones we currently have.

I agree it provides a more regular "stream" of energy. I think perhaps this focus on having regular unlimited energy at all times of night and day is a little unnecessary. People do sleep, and they should sleep during the night for maximum health, based on research. I find energy storage an important aspect of sustainability. We should have storage regardless of the system. I'm not against using it, all I said was it's not my favorite.
