Your point seems to be that so long as we can keep shoveling food into people's mouths, the rest of the effects of climate change are irrelevant.
That's bullshit. As the climate shifts "natural disasters" increase and make many places less habitable. We're already seeing this now and it's only getting worse. As these places slowly become uninhabitable, people immigrate or die and poor people are on the cusp of that.
I suppose this article is from Forbes so it's all about how fairly wealthy people will fair so the chipper attitude makes sense.
- ratboy666 7y agoThe article states that fewer people die of natural disasters. If you want to go to a pre-industrial state, I certainly support your decision. But, please, do not condemn billions of people to death. Of course, I will call out you "climate shifts ... make many places less habitable". Name one. Anywhere on the planet.
- ogre_codes 7y agoStop the stupid hyperbole. Suggesting climate change is going to have massive negative impacts does not mean "Go to a pre-industrial state", not even remotely. It's likely the only way we'll get through this mess right now is through the use of technology.
