        Your opinion articles boil down to “instead we should do even more than we did before”, which is cute, but exactly the opposite of what’s happening, making it incredibly ironic. The last one even calls out your complacent optimism. People are already fed up with current climate action, which is laughable. Real climate action, what we’d actually need to do, would affect everyone even more. You’d see an even larger rise in the far right and climate denial. But keep doing your token contributions while thinking there’s still some magic way of fixing things.

          Will do 👍 Make sure you keep spouting the same Doomer bullshit over and over, I’m sure it’s really helping! 👍

      We were on a 3 degree path BEFORE Trump got re-elected, with many signs pointing towards us highly overestimating the amount of time we had as well. The West was supposed to carry the burden of the developing countries in regards to emissions, since we were the ones emitting the historic majority of it already, but we didn’t, we already failed at that task. And now with Trump the US will go in full reverse mode. The rest of the world quite literally cannot compensate for that. It’s basically over now. There’s no “time to buy” anymore. And for what anyway? We don’t need more time, we need significant climate action being taken. But no one actually wants that. Not companies, not politicians, not voters. People who do are a tiny fringe movement of “extremists”.

          You’re in denial. But it doesn’t matter. Your snarky ass feel good reaction is not going to change the reality of the situation.
