50% of fossil carbon has been released in the last 30 years.
So it was gen z who did it then.
Do you not listen to yourself how moronic that argument is?
Hi shit for brains. I was replying to a comment about the industrial revolution beginning 200 years ago. I wasn't making a comment on gen z or baby boomers. I was pointing out that the people alive today are the ones responsible for climate change - not the people who lived over a hundred years ago. Bless you, I hope you have a great day.
This is wrong. It’s 20-25%. And the last 50 years includes a whole bunch on non-boomers and a massive industrialization of Asia. WTF is up with you people and “boomers”? There’s always going to be old people. And all of them were formerly young people.
I didn't say a word about boomers, I was replying to a post about the industrial revolution and 200 years ago.
But to get back to my point, in 1993 the cumulative emissions were 861 billion tons and in 2023 it was 1770 billion tons. So almost perfectly doubled in 30 years.

'Boomers' as a term originated as, and is actually specific to American Baby Boomers.
The generation that lived through the most anomalous economic boom in US history, assumed that was actually normal, and consistently voted as a general block to ensure (among many other stupid things) that the climate would be destroyed for their grandchildren, children, and deliciously ironically, even themselves as they are now all set to retire....
... all when they had a disproportional amount of actual wealth, social power, thus ability to avert this, thus collective general responsibility for not doing so.
That is how any history books not written by Boomers will summarize this.
Two questions: 1) Who you gonna blame when they’re all dead and 2) What are other, apparently superior “generations”, en masse, doing to realize a better world?
This is like asking if I am still going to be blaming Japan for bombing Pearl Harbor, Andrew Jackson for the Trail of Tears.
Your framing of this question does two things:
It misses the point that climate change is a time sensitive issue with a window for being able to address it. That window is largely passed now, now we are in the stage of 'how do we mitigate/survive this' instead of 'how do we prevent this'.
And this is also victim blaming. Hey I burned down your house, why are you homeless, what are YOU doing to solve YOUR problem?
The generational level of “concern” can be measured in voter turnout data. It isn’t very good.
Then why did gen z males vote for Trump?
