If Trump wins the election, it will doom our efforts to slow climate disaster | Bill McKibben

Understatements that keep me up at night for 1000, please, Alex.

I don't understand it, not Trump (who is the mechanism), but the entire conservative establishment. Like they have to know that they, and probably the capitalist system they've set up, has about 10 maybe 20 years left if they push in this direction (forget the "selfless" act of humans continuing to live on this planet). Do they really expect to be better off living like this? Or are they so far up their own arseholes that they can't see what's going to happen here?

This is the thing that keeps me voting Harris despite my dissatisfaction with her positions. These other issues, hugely significant though they may be for many people today are just dust in the wind compared to the colossal death and suffering of our failure to slow climate change. And there is a very clear policy difference between the two candidates on this issue, even though I think Harris is not nearly serious enough about it.

Oh it'll doom a lot more than that. But you're right, so go vote.
