  • We’re continuing to accelerate climate change for this?

    Our descendants a thousand years into the future are going to look back on this time period with absolute disgust, knowing we sleepwalked into destroying the environment potentially for the remainder of our species’ existence - and we did it for the dumbest possible reasons.
