In this video I mention
In this video I mention how the "right" (i.e. Rupert Murdoch media) is the main source of climate disinformation. Just for balance, I want to also include here why I hate hate hate that the climate narrative that the "left" pushes is "carbon carbon carbon". Yes, carbon is the main warming mechanism from a pure science standpoint. It's the main cause of the symptom of instability and warming, and that's just simply because these Greenhouse Gases (yes, which includes non carbon things like water) all have high specific heat capacities.
However, it's more than that. Our insane global Carbon releases of a whopping 3,217,000,000 TONS per year ITSELF is a symptom. It's a symptom of the social psychosis that I mention in this video. It is the change in mentality from living WITH the land, to extracting FROM the land. That the world is our resource and ours to take. That there are no consequences to ravaging it. I.e., it's a symptom of overshoot, which is the main problem.
So that's why my take on climate change is that we can fix the carbon problem and STILL walk off a cliff. If we made carbon capture tech, powered it with brand new fusion reactors, then ALL THAT WOULD DO is create a handful of industries that are now suddenly profitable. It would also allow industries that should die, to continue destroying the planet. All it would do is ensure we continue to extract, extract, extract, and we would just walk off a different cliff (biodiversity loss, topsoil loss, resource loss, plastic waste in oceans) sooner.
As painful as it may be, the actual surest path to our successfully navigating climate change, is to actually be FORCED to retract, due to for example, Hubbert's Curve. We simply don't have time to redesign society, overhaul politics and the financial system. The people in power simply won't let that happen anyways. We, as a society, actually need to hit these fundamental limits where cheap energy is no longer possible, and thus, global shipping dies (for example). It would force governments to think more locally, simply because it's no longer financially possible to do things like ship granite from Canada to Italy and back, just so someone can have a nice countertop. Because if these kind of things continue to be financially possible, then we will just simply continue to do them.
The root cause...
So we cannot fix our plight, until we address the root cause, and the root cause is overshoot. And maybe even more accurately, overshoot is the symptom, and the actual root cause is the social mental state that our civilization is in. We went from 7 generational thinking, to "my great great great grandkids will sit under this here oak tree I planted", and in 1 generation we went to "screw you whiny kids, Im'ma get mine!". It make me so sad when I see that sentiment to prevalently on things like facebook. It's this entire generational war of boomers vs Gen Z, Boomers vs Millenials, everyone vs Boomers, and all it does is isolate, cause in-fighting, and particularly, when people VOTE on those lines, and entire political platforms are established on lines of "good for everyone" vs "good for me", then we elect representatives that impart policy along those lines, and what happens from there is basically what we've seen since 1970 until now. Humanity walking, no, running towards the cliff edge.
