This is how I feel too. I’m vegan, don’t drive, don’t support shitty companies or politics and I spent much of my life trying to make shit better.

And for what? I’m just so fucking done having any faith in people improving at this point. At least if enough people know the world is ending, they might have fewer kids and this might lessen the length impact our species is having by a few fractions of a percentage.

I’m still trying to make shit better ffs and it’s still not working, lmao.

Says the person who called me dense, and then had to really reach to try and justify how the comment they called me dense over could possibly make sense.

Lmao, weak.

I just don’t see humanity cooperating together to not hit 4c warming. Nothing in the world around me gives me any inclination that people are capable of this or even particularly want it.

Global fresh water demand will exceed supply by 40% by 2030

AI’s projected water usage could hit 6.6 billion m³ by 2027

Drought and famine are going to kill billions in this century.

Lmao, how is this ‘fake news’?

The Mars Exploration Rovers landed in 2004 and the earlier Mars mission I forgot, is helpfully linked in a comment by user atomicbocks below.

In 2005 Australian urologist Helen O’Connell was the first to fully anatomically map the clitoris.

Or is this accusation of ‘fake news’ just you objecting to my comedic language about the historically male dominated field of medical science ‘discovering’ the clit?

If we had less people companies would dump twice the amount of plastics in the ocean

You going to try and explain this then?

What is there left to have any practical optimism about?

At least with enough people admitting defeat, fewer people will procreate and this will slightly lessen the impact we’re having on climate and resources.

If you’re still optimistic, did you know global fresh water demand will exceed supply 40% by 2030 and 90% of the earths topsoil is at risk of depletion by 2050?

Billions of people will die in the upcoming droughts and famines in this century. Billions more as the atmosphere continues to heat.

So you clearly haven’t been following any global events or climate science over the last decade, and you didn’t even watch the video either.

People like you aren’t making anything better with your unfounded pipe dreams.

If anything you are making shit worse for everyone because you’re spreading misinformation by promoting ignorance and hope for a future that isn’t possible.

Aside from not procreating and trying to enjoy what good times we have left, what else can be done?

Bearlandia and it’s polar opposite, Nobearlandia

I mean, it’s not like this should be surprising to anyone who’s been even half-heartedly following climate science, global politics and world news over the last decade.

Tbh, I’m more shocked by how long it’s taken for it to be admitted publically by such a mainstream climate scientist.

My wording was for comedic affect. I agree with you, but it’s still shocking how recently we mapped this organ in its entirety.

There’s a fun article about the history of the clitoris here, if anyone’s after yet more reading on this.

Have the future you deserve.

I tried to warn you.

Stupid it is.

The robotic Sojourner rover reached Mars on July 4, 1997 as part of the Mars Pathfinder mission.

Fuck me. That’s ridiculous. That’s 12 years before mankind found the clit.

Apparently the first with a pregnant crash test dummy was done in 1996
