    Jesus. Ten of the hottest years ever recorded were the last ten. Its time for some major changes. If more people rode public transport it would be better.

    All your objections seem to be about how inconvenient it would be for you. Sound kinda self-centered. Act like the only way to get by is to continue to conspicuously consume everything. Get a fuckin grip.

    Edited with less profanity and name calling

      Fella it isn’t me you need to convince. It’s the billions of other people on the planet you need to convince.

      If you think you can force the entire world then by all means and try.

        And also clearly you. As you seem to have decided you won’t participate until every single one of the other billions do.

          Pretty much. I’m not trashing my life and living in the slums while the rest of the world doesn’t care.

          If the world wants more from me then they can step up too.

            The market will fix it for you when gasoline prices quadruple. If demand drops (and it will), the fossil fuel oligopolies will try to maintain profits by price-gouging, since demand for fuel for cars is pretty inelastic.

                Clearly. You compared adjusting even a part of your life to living in the dunps and trashing it completely. You are clearly self centered and wouldn’t care.

                So, you are a gross person and I don’t expect you to care.

                Duh, and still ew.
