Climate change is not a lost cause. We are beating any estimates on wind and solar deployment, solar is cheap as fuck, and overall, were just no that bad off.
This is exactly the type of optimism we need if we're gonna slow climate change enough to make it
To be fair, I didn't explain myself. I don't think it is a lost cause. I think that we're already at a point where it's gonna become apocalyptic. I think if we don't do anything about it, it will become an extinction event.
But, I will admit that the last few weeks have been super depressing and myi mnd ia probably not as objective as it can be about the future
