ENVIRONMENTAL JUSTICE
I have a climate space at 11am est. People from 47 countries join to report what's happening. All continents excep Antarctica.
After a couple months on these calls I am telling you that Africans, Asians, and everyone impacted by climate and or colonization. Including indigenous people WANT RESTITUTION FOR THE DAMAGE.
which is extensive.
TRUTH - there is a media blackout on climate. I'm here to say it's a lot fucking worse then the little bits that slip into the news.
^^^ the estimate of how long we have is 100 years. Now it may be less since oil is a priotity.
Surprised. Don't be. We have mIltple ecosystems across the world that in complete collapse. It's not something that happens all at once... it's starts like this.

@BrentSullivan we know there will be death. Sorry to say the hyper consumerism/consumption under this capitalistic slavery is the problem with the billionaires too. I don't want to argue this but capitalism is the problem.
It's killing the planet
Long term we will not survive. We use 1.7 Earth's with of resources every year. But we have 80%of the tech to mitigate a lot. So I don't adopt a defeatist attitudes.
Billionaires and capitalism is the problem.
However
Next
@BrentSullivan not all will die. The earth can support 600 to 800 million people without fossil fuels.
@BrentSullivan @ucantstop_me This also is what I have been screaming into the void. This is a plan, not happenstance.
@phac3ti0us @BrentSullivan it's not too late. This is part of the problem. People give up
@ucantstop_me @phac3ti0us
Suggest a viable strategy please
I've been in the fight for quite a while. I no longer see a path
Most people don't know we've already gone past 2. The metric is 2 for a decade, so we won't admit to 2 for another 9 years.
@ucantstop_me @phac3ti0us
It is too late without fundamental change in how the whole damn world works
That I clearly see we have no chance doesn't mean I quit
There's a windmill or two in need of well placed lances. I can take pride in the action while letting go of the outcome. It's the only way I know to remain same
@BrentSullivan I'm not talking about windmills. I'm talking about losing the microbes that are required for everything in our ecosystem to work. @phac3ti0us
@ucantstop_me
Pretty sure it's too late already.
Population displacements driven by famine and lack of water will lead to resource wars and societal collapse.
I see the move to authoritarianism as a response to the coming chaos -- control what you can and use the lifeboat paddles to keep "others" out of the lifeboat
If there's was a global socialist push to reorient our economies to sustainability we might make it
It's the billionaires who should be beaten with lifeboat paddles
