Emissions, fossils fuels & deforestation are symptoms - not causes like overpopulation, cows & cars. That we discuss symptoms only is a feature and not a bug.
Mitigation & adaptation are the same:
- Birth control
- Plant based
- Local
- Low tech

UPDATE: The likelihood that humans will go extinct by 2100 is 80%.
"Under current trends, we hit 3°C within 25 years - meaning that avoiding extinction, not just collapse, would require population and consumption reduction beginning immediately, not post-2050"

The chart shows domestic emissions and does not include import/export net consumption emissions? These take more time to calculate. Due to population growth, the US as a nation has not reduced total net emissions much. Just outsourced some to China and other regions?

To be fair, the last time we dropped nukes, there was temporary relief. Wars, accidents and pandemics are the best tools we know to reduce our impact on Earth. Peace and trade leads to breeding and consuming too much and guarantees extinction.

#PSA: Vasectomies for men are significantly less expensive than sterilization procedures for women, typically costing 6 times less. A vasectomy is usually an in-office procedure costing around $1,000, while a tubal ligation for women is an invasive, hospital-based surgery often costing $8,500.

Cool. But to be clear, the rule is: Would have wanted kids. There are people, like my prettier half, who just don't want kids.

The patriarchy still rules. Racism still rules. Our society is based on classims and slavery. This is because we have speciesism as our foundation.

If we feel good because our environment makes sense to our senses, we don't need coping & balancing mechanisms like #hope, #optimism or drugs. If we don't feel good, treating symptoms with hope can't work too long. We need to improve our environment.

I am not anti-pharma, I'm pro prevention. I don't want to give up on antibiotics and vaccines. But today we use antibiotics mainly as pesticides (glyphosate is an antibiotic) or for preventing infections (instead of treating them if needed). People are anti-vax while using uppers & downers all day?
