Working for a company that launches satellites that examine climate change is far less impactful. [Citation needed] It's not worth a big pay cut even when you're focusing on altruistic motives. [Citation unavailable as its purely subjective]
- Dylan16807 2y agoWorking for a company that sometimes makes satellites that make measurements of climate change is so indirect at helping people if at all. Donating to that company (by being paid less) is not a good use of money, in terms of charitable benefit. I don't think any of this is wild enough to need citation in a discussion where the median comment is not expected to have citations. How many people honestly think it's a good idea to donate to a for-profit company? > It's not worth a big pay cut even when you're focusing on altruistic motives. [Citation unavailable as its purely subjective] I'm talking about level of benefit, which is not subjective. Edit: Also I just reread the original comment and realized the climate change measurement was listed as a negative, so for the two citation neededs I point back at the original post about the company. Donating a single dollar beats a negative.
