Haha love it. Reminds me of something out of Game of Thrones.
For anyone reading this poem who has a strong negative reaction:
Consider it a sign that perhaps there's something more you could be doing in your own life. Take a job in climate (https://workonclimate.org/ https://workonclimate.org/ https://climatebase.org/ https://climatebase.org/). Start a startup working on climate solutions.
"Climate deniers" aren't really a problem.
Complacency is bullshit though.
Consider that future generations may look back and judge your excuse of "but alfor on HN wrote a poem that made fun of a climate person" quite harshly.
It's go time :)
- alfor 4y agoThanks ;) I have no problem with climate action, but the religious tendency is too obvious at this point. Clearly Gretha is our virgin Mary, she is not there because of her knowledge, but because she represent innocence, purity. I think we should balance our actions against other causes that are also vitaly important and be careful with giving too much power to government at this moment. Ironically the activists movement (greenpeace) blocked much of the development of nuclear energy, one of the best solution we had many many years ago. Now solar, batteries, wind and EV are completely decarbonizing the energy sector and activist are trying to block mines projects that could help make batteries. I think the solutions is mostly not austerity, taxes and more government, it’s more technology, more developpement. (I would make exceptions for forever chemicals, air quality, ocean and diversity protection)
