I am a leftie environmentalist, yet I found this interview quite balanced and informative: https://www.prageru.com/video/why-are-energy-prices-so-frickin-high-with-chris-wright https://www.prageru.com/video/why-are-energy-prices-so-frick...
Frankly, we as a global society have FAR more pressing issues than the greenhouse effect, such as:
Collapse of insect and bird populations
Overfishing and plummeting biodiversity as we turn the world into farms and monocultures
Destruction of coral reefs and kelp forests and rainforests
One third of arable land WORLDWIDE is now undergoing desertification
Day zero for many cities as aquifers run dry
Plastic by mass will outnumber fish in the oceans by 2050
Factory farms overuse of antibiotics and superbacteria…
And so on… somehow this “climate change” thing has hijacked the conversation and sucked all the political capital for things like sustainability, switching to non biodegradeable plastics, ending factory farms, etc.
