    I think we’re fucked. Human nature, slow governments, apathy and disbelief mean we will not overcome climate change.

    Best brace for the impacts in all practical ways. It will not go away and will only get worse.

      What is that? Like, carbon emissions stop because of general supply chain collapse? Or we all get together and figure out a way to make massive diamond blocks from the CO2 in a hurry?

    When you are making very difficult life and death decisions regarding resources for your family, remember your conservative neighbors did this. And they did it gleefully.

    you can ‘expand’ local production to decrease reliance on foreign sources and still also decrease overall consumption.

      The issue is that especially oil is a globally traded commodity. So increasing local production means you buy less from abroad and that means lower prices, so others are more likely to buy it.

      Also the money can be used to invest into green infrastructure as well.
