Trying to reverse climate change won’t save us, scientists warn
“Climate change comes with irreversible consequences.”
You're viewing a single thread.
Startups are developing a whole suite of technologies to try to help
Do not think that they are seriously trying to save the planet.
(If they had wanted that, they should have done it 30-40 years ago)
They just want to make money, like everybody else.
I mean, the whole “startups are doing x” is really code for “venture dollars have been made available for entrepreneurs to explore x”. Startups these days are chasing fields which have investment dollars, so this means the rich are starting to invest in the tech a little more earnestly
Yeah no, it's just about the latest money grab before we all die
They're are decent people in this world who want things to be better. Sometimes they even have money.
Also, because we can only really see the world as ourselves, we tend to think everyone else thinks like us. So it's very telling when people think everyone else is evil.
It isn't exactly that we think everyone is evil, we just doubt that anyone with profits in mind is doing much, or any, good for humanity.
