The sooner the "we" stops pretending to care, the better for everyone involved. The environment is going to take a beating for as long as humans walk the earth.

The sooner the "we" stops pretending to care, the better for everyone involved. The environment is going to take a beating for as long as humans walk the earth. No one here actually gives a rat's tail about the environment. If we did care we'd have to talk about accountability and we all know where that road goes.
- esarbe 5y agoIt is pretty obvious that nobody cares. Most of the people are doing an amazing job of just filtering the fact of mankind's destructive impact out of their daily lives. And others -- like many on HN -- have an almost religious believe in a technical miracle. The Elon will save us all. Don't expect any talk of accountability. That would mean biting the bullet of accepting that we -- as a species -- are seriously messing up and are in the act of driving the car against the iceberg. Or something like that. Better not to rock the cradle and just enjoy the last few good decades we have. The pest on all our children, no concern for them is going to ruin this party!
