Considering we can’t even get heads or state or imagining-they’re-heads-of-states to not:
Wage war on neighboring countries.
Try to usurp their own government.
Promote wild conspiracy theories.
Be ragingly against personal freedom even in the US, the countries that is supposedly all about that.
Be ragingly anti-intellectual.
… I really have exactly zero hope we can do shit-all about climate issues. We can’t even handle far smaller and far more benign (by comparison) issues on a national level, what hope do we have to handle things that require everyone to pull in the same direction, on an international one.
What is it about trees? Any time someone posts something about the problems of some plans to fight climate change on Lemmy or Reddit, someone posts a reply like yours. And every tine news about climate activists are posted, someone else posts something about that they had better planted some trees.
Planting trees is a commendable effort and a great first step, but you do know that (if I understand earth’s climate history correctly) earth was covered in trees when CO2-levels were as high as today or even higher? Only by sequestrating fallen trees underground through sedimentation (and converting them to coal and later oil) did CO2-levels in the atmosphere begin to drop.

How many trees did you plant this week? I planted around 10 so far.

I make biochar, how much biochar have you made this week?
I live in a tiny apartment in the middle of a city.
Where the fuck would I make biochar.
A community garden.
