    Iirc, if you’re 60 today, around 75% of human CO2e emissions were created during your life time. The number may be a little off, but the point is: since emissions have steadily increased, it’s very likely that the majority of emissions were emitted during your life time. Which also explains why shit is getting crazier very right now, as emissions are on a level never seen before and still rising.

      But the rising is slowing down! Yes we’re still emitting more and more everyday, we’re atleast emitting less more

      This is why I think we need to have global battle Royales. Thin the herd. Keep the population lower so we don’t have to work the earth as much.

      Maybe a nuclear war and the following nuclear winter would be a good reset for ol mother nature lol.

          … You want me to nuke first? Or were you saying me first to the battle Royale thing? Because I think you need more than one person for it to be a battle Royale. I was thinking we group people into random groups of like 10 people each. Then they fight to the death. The survivor gets to live.

          We would need to split the genders so we don’t end up with a planet of exclusively jacked dudes. After than we drop from from 8 billion people to 800 million. Now everyone has for sure got a house. We got plenty of food for everyone. Everyone definitely gonna need a job.

          Guys I think I just fixed everything.

                What, its only okay if other people die first? Whenever some advocates for “thinning the herd”, they should always start with themselves :)

                  I never said I wouldn’t participate in the battle Royale. I’m a big advocate for practicing what you preach.

                  I either get to live in my new paradise or I’m dead and it’s no longer my problem. Win win.

                    Nono, i am adressing the reason for the battle royale. People who are obsessed with overpopulation should really start with themselves :)

        No need for nuclear war. Looks like Captain Trips is being brewed in the US bird/cattle/human populations at the moment. M-O-O-N spells pandemic.

        Population is not even the issue here. We are capable of sustaining the amount of people we have we just refuse to do so efficiently because it benefits rich people.

        A bird flu pandemic would do that too. Without ruining the environment.

        De-growth in general would save us without population decline but the world economies collapse when there’s de-growth.

          That’s because the world’s economies are built on the unsustainable principle of infinite growth.
