    While true that it’s too late to avoid consequences, doomerism is just as much a trap to keep you complacent as climate denial is. If we act now or relatively soon, we can still avoid the worst consequences. It is going to suck, no matter what, but the fight isn’t over.

      You people keep saying “we” as if you have any influence. The solution can only be reached through worldwide government regulation that literally cannot be achieved. You’re living in a fantasy when you should be getting ready for imminent disaster.

        And it really isn’t even on us to do anything. It’s the corporations. They need to provide the alternative fuel sources for transportation. They need to provide the environmentally friendly power generation. They need to clean up their emissions and toxic waste. This isn’t on “us”. This is on them.
