...take any and all non-destructive steps to reduce human impact on the environment in general, starting with the plastic, glyphosate, pesticides, depleted uranium, fluoride, mercury and aluminum we poison ourselves with daily. And this, of course, would include excessive carbon and nitrogen emissions to some
Precisely.
The above should be the top priority, not fucking 'carbon offsets/credits', ESG-related 'initiatives', or 'net zero', etc. All of these are brazen scams and largely ineffective, in any event.
As alluded by Stickdog, and as I've typed a number of times in this thread, the climate is NOT impacted by the activities ('carbon output', etc) of everyday commoners/humans. If we are to discuss carbon-reduction, especially with respect to
impact on environment and pollution, the TOP priority is to curb such emissions from the largest polluters: mega corporations, multinational entities, and countries like China and India that are far more egregious in this regard than the U.S.; additionally, how about we fucking curb the activities of Billionaires, eh? The fucking myriad and repeat PRIVATE JET flights and YACHT usage, to name just 2 examples, FAR exceed 'carbon output' of activities engaged by the average human.
The typical private jet burns around 5,000 gallons of fuel per hour. That's the equivalent of about 400 passenger cars. The average commercial jet burns about half that much. When you consider that most private jets only fly with a handful of passengers, it's easy to see how they can have such a large carbon footprint
https://flybitlux.com/what-is-the-carbo ... ivate-jet/Why the fuck is Private Jet usage not being discussed as an activity to curb? Well, it should be CLEAR why. Because the "human-based CO2 as primary driver of 'climate change' " narrative is not only a massive scam, but increasingly a vehicle utilized to curb fundamental human rights, agency, and free movement of the working/middle/majority classes.
This is
NOT an "
excess population" problem or a "
scarcity of resources" problem. This is a '
wholly unjust/un-equitable distribution of resources' problem. This is also a, "
the very few want a stranglehold on the majority of available resources -- wealth, power, energy, money, land, property, farming, etc -- and are willing to impose all manner of draconian measures, including eugenics-related programs disguised as fucking 'PROGRESSIVE INITATIVES' [e.g., "carbon reduction"; "mass scale vaccination", "rolling blackouts"; "lockdowns" -- climate or 'pandemic'; related mandates, etc] to realize their objectives" problem.
It's up to the majority to prevent this from happening.
Put another way: We need to wake the fuck up, collectively.
(there is an expression/meme that has increasing validity these days: "WE are the carbon they want to reduce")
The so-called "Left" of current times is quickly becoming a DOOMSDAY CULT. In the last ~3yrs, a sizable number of those on the "Left" have been convinced to be ok with -- or CLAMOR for -- egregious affronts to fundamental human rights. This trend has and will continue with "climate alarm" programming. Demonstrably.
(some may compellingly argue the Left has already firmly arrived as a doomsday cult, on or around ~late 2021)
