I think that's more of a reflection of you than the OP. You read it as "doomed", I read it was "dire, but still fixable if we do more"

- Retric 4y agoHow do you see: “I know the reality of unavoidable climate catastrophe is uncomfortable to talk about.” As a suggestion of “fixable” they literally said it was unavoidable.
- bombcar 4y agoIf it is unavoidable than the question becomes how do we build to handle it instead of how do we prevent it - the first question may involve much more carbon output during the building phase, for example.
- snapcaster 4y agoPlease have a more charitable interpretation of comments here. Even if some event (like climate change, a hurricane, etc.) is bound to occur that doesn't mean there is nothing that can be done to mitigate damage or impact
- Nutyea 4y agoI think the problem we're having talking to each other is you think an unavoidable climate catastrophe is "doomed", and I think "doomed" is more like the complete extinction of the human race, which is definitely still fixable, from what I know.
- Retric 4y agoDoomed mean to unavoidably suffer some negative outcome in the future, but not necessarily death/extinction. Someone that forgot about an upcoming test is doomed.
