> what's being done by HN users
Based on my personal experience on this forum, the primary thing HN users are doing about the climate crisis is speculating about how scifi technologies might save us, and using that as an excuse to avoid getting involved in the messy business of mass politics.
There's a strong libertarian and techno-utopian streak here that doesn't take kindly to being told that they're not going to save the world with a webapp, and we need major government intervention.
