At the end of the day it will come down to you lowering your living standards by using less energy. Much less energy. And a really large reduction in living standard where everything you consume will cost at least double of what you pay today. Even if you blame the fossile fuel industry, you will have to pay. Oil is the cheapest energy there is. You have the choice today to stop all your emission of co2, so why don´t you? Because it´s uncomfortable. Your comfort is the cause of climate change. I´m fortunate enough to realize that climate change caused by co2 is a thermodynamic impossibility because it implies that earth heats itself by energy creation. Life is much easier without believing in doomsday cults.
- breakyerself 6y agoThat's bullshit. There is a myriad of ways to get energy without fossil fuels. Wind and Solar are both cheaper than coal now and electric cars are like 97% efficient compared to ICE cars that are closer to 40%. We can replace the fossil fuel energy we use and add more to meet growing demand using wind, solar, nuclear, geothermal, tidal, etc. We need a price on carbon and we need people to get their heads out of their own ass. Also you're understanding of the thermodynamics of climate change are completely bat shit.
