We’re headed for 3 or even 4 degrees. The version of ‘deep fast cuts’ We’re getting is data centers burning through seas of diesel, corruption stomping on clean energy progress on favor of petro-corp profits, and a global consumer base willing to save the planet, but only if they can sacrifice no comfort or convenience in the process.

Deep, fast cuts? Not a chance of happening. The epstein class will dance as the world burns to make themselves slightly more obscenely wealthy and the average person will be happy to assist rather than having to change their lifestyle slightly. They got theirs and fuck future generations, right? If we couldn’t get a critical mass of people on board a few decades ago when changes would have been easier to adjust to, how the hell can we get people to now?
