    The sane approach is to phase out fossil fuels as quickly as humanly possible.

    Meanwhile republicans are too busy defending the EPA, giving more subsidies to the oil industry, and spreading climate disinformation.

    Our grandchildren won’t have a habitable world if we don’t do something about it. If you didn’t like people being “extreme” over this, then we should have done something about it half a century ago when the oil industry learned it was a problem.

        Given that your response to “we need to do fix this as quickly as possible” is a 3 paragraph doomerism rant, it sounds like there isn’t anything that I could possibly say to change your mind.

        You aren’t immune to propaganda, and evidently that especially goes for oil lobby propaganda.

            What big oil does is 100% irrelevant.

            Everything you brought up is a oil lobby talking point.

            Until we CAN replace them, we can’t, it’s that simple

            Anybody who tells you the climate situation is simple is lying to you.

            Taking things we absolutely need and fucking up life as we know it doesn’t change that

            We don’t need to fuck things up, at least for now.

            if you know of a way to do just that, without that end effect, I’m all ears.

            Fine, I’ll respond to your initial comment.
