- Your post, included comments, or your title/comment should include some kind of commentary or remark on the subject of the screen capture. Your title must include at least one word relevant to your post.
- You are encouraged to provide a link back to the source of your screen capture in the body of your post.

There are many bankers and investment funds' CEOs and owners we probably don't know the names of that are also funding the end of the world because of profit
Say the Americans who consume 3x the energy of other developed nations.
"Jeff bezos forced me to live in the desert and run AC 10 months of the year"
"Bill Gates made me drive my car to get groceries"
"Bring back plastic straws"
"Roll coal, baby!"
that feels, for some reason, profound.
I mean, sure let it be 200 or 400, 1000. It's still a rounding error compared to all of humanity.
maybe that is why there is a period of prosperity after large wars. The losing side being wiped out reduces that number by half and everyone can breathe a bit more freely.
So these ninety or so specific people, is someone keeping a list somewhere?
Recycling is a con to make you feel guilty and let Chevron off the hook.
Solar energy used to be a similar con and look at it now.
How was solar a con? It produced energy, as intended. It's gotten gradually even better at producing energy through better photovotaics, batteries, molten salt concentrated solar, and kinetic batteries (pumping water uphill during the day, running electro-hydralic power generation at night). But it was never a lie.
Plastic was never recyclable. It's been burned in the open air in China and Indoneisa ab initio.
You can argue that glass, cardboard, and aluminum can be effectively recycled, but in the context of climate change and fossil fuels, we are taking about petroleum-based plastics. There are too many different kinds of plastic and the cost of recycling versus the cost of new material meant recycling was a chimera from the beginning.
Should I be worried that my initial response to this is "Hmm, so we might be able to improve the world with a serendipitously timed anthrax outbreak at the next WEF summit?"
About the response itself? No.
About the situation that made that response understandable? We're way past "worried".
These people have physical bodies
These few people / companies destroying the planet: BLAME THE CONSUMER!
The amount of fucking everything up they do in a day is more than I do in a lifetime.
At what point can we sue them for the many crimes against humanity? The many, many,….
(The oil executives that is just to be clear!)
historians estimate about 200,000 to 300,000 germans were directly involved in the Shoah. many more profited from it.
ok but three "literally" is too many.
