When are we going to have the courage to stop the climate crisis?

www.irishtimes.com Sally Rooney: When are we going to have the courage to stop the climate crisis?

Capitalism is driving the destruction of our planet. We have to think outside – and against – the framework of our current political system

"If our overheating planet is a result of human greed, then it must be a special kind of greed, a kind that emerged puzzlingly late in the long history of our species and then with a sudden vengeance."

Simply put ..... we won't .... because the Climate Crisis will stop us.
We don't do anything until we get to the point where we will be forced to act because our collective survival will be directly and immediately threatened.

courage to stop the climate crisis? we can't even convince people to curb their exhaust output, and allow idiots to drive around alone in giant jacked up trucks because they're compensating for
<whatever>

Great read, thank you

Whenever were asked at a voting booth to select a move towards doing something, we chose the opposite.
Surely it's clear by now we give no fucks beyond a modicum of pearl clutching ? We're still flying and driving cars, catching cruise ships, pleasure water craft, private jets blah blah blah

We're too late. Best to prepare for things to come.
