re: #306 Oh no…Sand People!

Good grief.

“BILLIONS WILL DIE!!”

Am I my brother’s keeper?

It’s this frenzied alarmism that turns me off all together eve if factually accurate with date. I have more concrete proof and scientific data about cigarettes and cancer and I am not waging my anti smoking crusade.

If we created it…we’ll get out of it.
But I am just an optimist that way…just the way I roll.

Except that smoking kills thousands each year, maybe millions. Billions will die is accurate, and you and your kids will be the ones facing the hardship.

What you just said is deeply stupid.

If you are stuck in front of a train rushing towards you, it is not alarmist to scream that you need to move.

You actually do need to move.

Moreover, what the science is telling us is that no, sorry, there will be no fix f we cross a tipping point.

Sometimes life is like that.

If you get shot in the head with a .50 cal rifle, you will die. There is no medical science to put you back together again. Therefore, just as it then behooves youy to avoid people with sniper rifles that want to shoot you, it behooves you to avoid the eco-collapse. Once it happens, the die is cast.
