    Aren’t there some pretty definitive things that can be done… they’re just not cost-feasible for the people in charge.

      Absolutely, but no one with the means to do those things has the will to, so the rest of us are left scrambling for a plan B. We’re on our last few laps around the drain - we need major interventions if we’re going to stop ourselves from going down.

      Preserving the environment is no longer a good reason to not experiment on it, cuz if we stay the course it’s fucked anyway. It’s already broken beyond our current options to repair it.

      They’re cost feasible, they’re just not profitable enough supposedly (though in a lot of cases, I think that’s also probably more or less bullshit, companies just don’t want to adapt).
