And they lived to 90, not a bad run.
All humans are dead, that's why the air is clean.
If all humans are dead then who buried him and placed the tombstone there? Check mate atheists.
Since plastic was already everywhere, we collected it, made it white and covered huge areas with it to reflect more sunlight. Great idea, didn't backfire at all.
The look on death's face.
Uh, that's nuclear fallout
That's what killed them
sometimes i just wanna believe
Maaan, I just don't understand that comic; somebody care to explain?
Is Death disappointed because the green guy is not interested in his own grave but more about the future achievements and what society did in the meantime? Or the disrespect for having lived 90 years? Is that the correlation to Solar Punk?
Because I excluded some things already:
- someone dug a grave for him, so someone is/was alive and cared enough to do so and even knew his birthday
- snow is cold so it cannot be fallout; some hyphotesized below
- wind turbines are still turning and are not damaged or worn down
I think you're looking too deep. The ghost of Christmas future shows you how unimportant you are, but the character doesn't care since the world is better than expected.
Then why is the ghost disappointed/confused in the last panel, if his mission was to show how unimportant the green guy is and then the green guy does exactly that by marvelling about the future and not about the self-importance.
And maybe one of the downvoters can exlain it all to me when they're so dismissive?

I'm not understanding the joke here
That's the thing, we always have.
Turns out humans always do the right thing when they have no other options left lol.

Peak survivorship bias
Kurzgesagt are literally the opposite of solarpunk, they are techno-optimists founded by Bill Gates.
Man, I loved that video when it came out but reading the comments and watching the video essays replying to this video is just depressing. I still have hope that we will be able to turn it around, but that video used to be what I sent everyone who was down due to climate issues, and now I can't send it to people in good conscience.
You mean the channel that uses Gigachad unironically, uses scant sources, and only highly viewed videos are contrarian hit pieces on Kurzgesagt?
You should probably take it with a grain of salt when the only people you see pushing such a channel are a bunch of sketchy pessimists pushing apathy. It was made because they knew they'd have easy views giving every one of those glass hall empty types another reason to mope because they want everyone else to be just as miserable as them.
Lemmy isn't exactly known for being a website who sees the world through the lens of reality though lol.
The hot takes here and amount of fingers you see shoved in ears despite every source saying otherwise is staggering at times.
I mean Jesus, look at the comic everyone is commenting on. Look for any piece of light hearted fun on this site and watch it devolve instantly by a bunch of propagandists and people who take themselves too serious pretending like they aren't on mainstream social media or a link aggregating site that's essentially copying reddit but refused to acknowledge where they came from. It's just so silly sometimes when you poke fun at it lol.
