Lets Spend Trillions On Weapons / Submarines And Not Combatting Climate Change

[DanieRains]

Because of CHINA.

or IRAN.

or TERRORISTS

Or whatever.

Does our species even deserve to not go extinct?

This is a serous question.

Hey France Australia etc. Your countries are on fire. YOU ARE BURNING. Didn't you notice?

Stop buying Chinese crap, and they won't have money to threaten folks.

There are things we can do about "threats" besides spending trillions on war toys, and war itself.

Time humans evolved past Roman Times of war, slavery, and democracy by only they rich.

1. 2 Million Acres Of California Burned This Year - 3 Million Next Year?

Wait till it burns from Florida to Maine.

Every. Fuc*ing. Tree.

Just a matter of time.

The fire only got within 4 miles of my place this year.

It was 1 mile 2 years ago.

Just a matter of time.....

Lets build weapons instead of solar panels, and evolving.

2. Sadly it seems humans do deserve what we're getting

And on behalf of humans to all other living things (not that anyone elected me), sorry for our collective stupidity.

6. If we had any sense we'd set a shut-off date for fossil fuels, maybe fifteen years from now.

Then we'd fight for it just as if we were fighting the Nazis.

At the end of fifteen years we'd be taking out pirate fossil fuel power stations and refineries worldwide with missiles.

We've now got all the technologies we need to quit fossil fuels.

We just have to do it.

If we don't quit fossil fuels soon Mother Nature is going to clean up our mess in her usual fashion. Billions of people will suffer and die. Refugee problems will intensify, even within the United States, where states will turn against states, worse than the Dust Bowl of the 1930's, when "Okie" was not a term of endearment.
