Will we look back at today's "go green" initiatives as stupid and inadequate?
When I was in elementary school, the cafeteria switched to disposable plastic trays because the paper ones hurt trees. Stupid, I know... but are today's initiatives any better?
Yes, we're basically doing nothing. Then we'll run around like headless chicken when things will start to get really bad. And when the mass deaths will start, well, we'll start acting, by killing each other.
I wish I could share your optimism, I think when it does happen people will be running around saying "holy shit this wasnt supposed to happen for at least another decade!"
Oh I wouldn’t call it optimism. It will be extremely unpleasant (to put it mildly) and probably 99% of human population will die. But the survivors will adapt.
We have a small standing shower, so I started turning the water off when soaping up, instead of aiming the shower head away. Much more room, easier, and saving a ton of water. I pee in there too.
