Australia

The other day standing at the lights waiting to cross, for whatever reason it hit me like a ton of bricks as I saw half a dozen cars pull up to the lights.

"we're doomed, there's no way people will accept the changes we need to make right now to stand any chance of avoiding a climate catastrophe"

Heavy cars are just the tip of the iceberg. From the heavy ships burning shit oil in international waters, to agricultural methane, food waste, microplastics, etc, we're fucked.

Pessimistic, but I just don't see humanity coming together for a common good. We'll probably be ok in Australia. Rich, and far away from everyone but I feel for those in less fortunate situations when the crops stop growing and AC becomes mandatory to survive summer.

This is worth sharing except they use Twitter embeds. Too slow to change I guess :/

I try to talk to my mates about this and they all basically say: they will never give up their giant cars and we should just build parking next I train stations for those who can’t afford to drive everywhere.

It’s not their lives at risk (in the car) and they are good drivers. It’s the others that need to lose their cars/license.
