Besides the should-be-obvious -by-now thing that you ABSOLUTELY cannot disengage human wellbeing from what happens to the ecosystem no matter how much people want to believe so –
"Energy security" is just an euphemism for "I wanna continue my wasteful unsustainable lifestyle". Sure, things like heating can be real problems, but as long as there are thing like hundreds of millions of personal cars driving around every day, talking about energy security is bullshit.
And talking about overpopulation is such a transparent red herring trying to deflect blame and responsibility from the Westerners to brown people in poor countries.
- roenxi 4y agoYes. I want every human on the planet to be living like a wealthy westerner. No euphemisms needed. My machiavellian evil knows few bounds.
- Sharlin 4y agoSure, me too. But that’s impossible right now, and it becomes less possible every second as we continue to lay waste on critical ecosystem services.
