We are not gonna fix this, not with restrictions. Humanity is inherently expansionist, resources should instead be used towards R&D, innovation. Only new technologies improved life for us, never government interventions.I think the majority of modern global warming is caused by humans but I agree with you. A lot of the "solutions" offered by governments seem like bullshit. Like banning plastic straws and making people use soggy cardboard ones. Or wasting money on solar panels made with dirty rare earth minerals.
My grandparents were big Tories who donated to environmental causes but they didn't support many government environmental programs bc of their history of fucking it up, wasting money, inefficiencies etc.
Of course, tech comes with its own severe downsides, as we all know from Uncle Ted, but we have no alternative.
Government restrictions are cynical propaganda ops IMO, we've all seen how responsible they are, going to fuck while others are on lockdown and the sort. These people don't care, they consider us expendable biomass that only serves a working drone purpose, they want us pacified and numb from drugs, fat, desperate and near suicidal, prone to manipulation.
We should keep marching forward, if we fail, we fail, nothing lasts forever, and our species had a decent riot here anyway.
