    Well, there you have it. If, as you suggest, man can't do anything, why waste the efforts? Do you then relax, pop a top, and BBQ on the V8 engine you referred to earlier? If not, why not?

    Why not go full manbearpig and stand on the street corner caterwauling "the end is nigh"... or some such.. It might be more effective..

    Sometimes, I think so many of these conversations happen because someone freaks out because they max out their ability to imagine anything else.. And because they can't , it become the apocalyptic doom for all... Perhaps there's a pathology to this...

    The planet as an expiration date anyway. Nothing last forever and it's ridicule to spend your time and ressources fighting the inevitable.

    LIke EVERY Democrat that screams CLIMATE CHANGE, they ALL fly around in private jets, whenever they can. They couldn't give a rip. Total hypocrites. If they did, they would fly commercial. So when I hear them saying anything about climate change, the first answer should be, YOU FIRST **** faces=)

    But they are WOKE. It is their job to spread the WOKENESS throughout the world. Expense is irrelevant.

    You're assuming that's possible, given a determination on the part of every Earthling comparable to that of the invasion forces on D-Day - which is a fact not in evidence.

    Well dur, where do you think that the oxygen released by ocean life comes from? Don't tell me, you think that only land based plants produce oxygen. Actually, judging by your post, I don't think you even know what photosynthesis is. Ocean life is the biggest producer of oxygen. And the average yearly ocean temperature is not changing all the time - it has been gradually increasing over the last 100 years. Ocean life thrives in colder water, ocean life suffers in warm water, one of the reasons is the carbon dioxide concentration in warmer water is lower than in colder water

    Oxygen is released from plants. Not from the ocean or dry land.

    Yeah but the electric vehicle only serves one purpose. To make an oblivious person feel like they're doing something good.

    There is a lot of virtue signaling going on these days. All the WOKE are doing it.

    Environmentalism isn't about the environment.

    The megadeaths from climate change is not a Malthusian argument.

    I disagree. Malthus's argument is that population growth would surpass resources and food supplies available. While he did not really discuss climate change based on population growth, the concept is very similar. Higher population = more demand for energy use = more potential for man-made climate change.

    Some Malthusian global warming alarmists argue that a solution is to limit population growth.

    What megadeaths are those ??? When will they start ???
