- kristopolous 7y agoSolutions that work for a while but destroy everything in the process aren't solutions. This isn't some cost/benefit stuff. Single use plastics and building concrete urban blight isn't worth a mass Extinction and global dieoff event. Especially with things like carbon negative concrete available. Not the same thing It's bad solutions, when good ones are available, at massive scale, to address things that either aren't problems or could be addressed in other ways.
