Eh. Maybe I’ll invest in real estate in Greenland, as it might turn more green. As long as air quality remains ok where I live, I don’t really care about the climate warming, and I feel it is something put into motion long ago, that our stupid “carbon credits” won’t do a damn thing to stop. If it gets really bad, well, human agency is a marvelous thing. The last thing we need is politicians with investments in “green” technology forcing us to use “green” technology. (Same goes for those with investments in fossil fuels, shouldn’t be forced to use those either)

Don't take this the wrong way, but this reads as you're happy to ignore the problem because 'f you, I got mine'. Does that summarize your position fairly or unfairly? >The last thing we need is politicians with investments in “green” technology forcing us to use “green” technology. (Same goes for those with investments in fossil fuels, shouldn’t be forced to use those either) Ahh, so much for that human agency that you were so pleased with a moment ago.

So fuck everyone else as long as I’m okay. You’re the exact kind of person that comes begging and unprepared when it finally effects you.
