EU and China should put a CO2 tax on products from thr US if they want burn the planet

I don't think kamala "frack the planet" harris was gonna make the environment much better

[–] VantaBrandon@lemmy.world 12 points 6 hours ago (2 children)

This kind of puritanical shit is pretty much how Trump won

How anyone could be delusional enough to think Trump would be better somehow for the environment is just beyond me

[–] MisterScruffy@lemmy.ml 2 points 6 minutes ago

trump would not be better but dems have made it clear that they dont really take the environment seriously. They say its a crisis and we have to take action but then they open up more fracking and give more money to military contractors. This doesnt make me a trump voter but it does make me tune them out when they make appeals about climate because I know the dems will still sell the climate down the river in favor of big corporate lobbies when in power. That kind of double talk makes people give up on parties and stop caring.

[–] Sooperstition@lemmy.one 2 points 4 hours ago

Nobody’s saying that the climate denier is better for the environment. We’re saying that Kamala, who “believes in science” would be a smokescreen, just like Biden was.

If your climate agenda is to give tax credits to install heat pumps and a ton of money to EV manufacturers, and to not actually tackle the biggest polluters in the country, you don’t have a serious climate plan. Also deeply unserious is slapping tariffs on China’s affordable and reliable solar panels and EVs.

The military is a huge polluter and greenhouse gas emitter. So are suburban neighborhoods and aviation. If you can’t tackle those by realigning foreign policy, infrastructure, and urban development, then you’re not going far enough.

This won’t be solved by giving a ton of money to private companies and hoping they find a profit motive. We’d need a vast expansion of state capacity at this point.

Trump is going to dismantle the EPA

'Beware the beast Man, for he is the Devil's pawn! Alone among God's primates, he kills for sport, or lust or greed. Yea, he will murder his brother to possess his brother's land. Let him not breed in great numbers, for he will make a desert of his home and yours.'

I've got bad news for you about the other primates...

I said on Facebook this morning: "I'm sorry Americans, I hate this for you" and caught a 30 day ban. Amazing. I am so sorry.

[–] Bytemeister@lemmy.world 61 points 1 day ago (3 children)

Just give Facebook a permaban. Them banning you is like your boss writing you up for having the best attendance.

Don't you just love freedom of speech?

[–] BonesOfTheMoon@lemmy.world 42 points 1 day ago (2 children)

I feel like they've been waiting for a chance to do this. I got similarly banned after Roe vs Wade was overturned when I offered to mail abortion pills to Americans. Vice interviewed me about it.

I am really wondering if comments will start being unsafe with a lessened expectation of free speech continuing and revenge being the new normal. Im going to start a new account thats not linked to my email address. I'd suggest everyone else do the same.

[–] TheObviousSolution@lemm.ee 20 points 1 day ago

Look on the bright side, late night political humor is going to get more interesting. They are putting RFK Jr in charge of key public health industries, which is going to create an entertaining amount of karma.

I do hope that the US is able to rush some Ukraine aid, but it does look like Europe is also going to have a hard road ahead. This isn't just Trump winning out, it is a form of undermining democracies winning out, and it will continue to spread much quicker now.

[–] HungryJerboa@lemmy.ca 166 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (7 children)

I hate how this picture is accurate. American inaction on climate change fucks everyone over. There's almost no chance of convincing China and India to reduce emissions if the richest country in the world can't be bothered to lift a finger.

But hey, maybe this will incentivize Elon to double his efforts on colonizing Mars for the super rich!

[–] Resonosity@lemmy.world 6 points 15 hours ago (1 children)

Actually China is leading the planet on renewables deployment.

I haven't combed through the data in a minute, but I want to also say that they're also leading in fossil fuel deployment too. Probably is due to their population size than anything else.

Don't worry though: America can't stand that China is doing better than them at something, so we're going to try to punish them and frame them as the bad guys since America can be the only one espousing leadership, not the Big Bad East.

[–] seeyouatthepartyrichter@lemmy.world 3 points 6 hours ago (1 children)

Are China the good guys now?

[–] Deway@lemmy.world 1 points 4 hours ago

No. But neither are the US and I don't think they ever were. For now, I'd say the EU are the less bad of the biggest (EU, Russia, China, India, and the US) but even we aren't the good guys.

[–] CitizenKong@lemmy.world 35 points 1 day ago (1 children)

It will only incentivize Elon (and all the other filthy rich) to build air conditioned luxury bunkers guarded by AI killerbots in places like New Zealand.

Or maybe something like the titular space station in the movie Elysium, where they enjoy the newest medical treatments while looking down on the rest of humanity trying to survive on a planet that has turned into a helhole.

[–] Clinicallydepressedpoochie@lemmy.world 4 points 18 hours ago* (last edited 18 hours ago)

Yes! New Zealand, we have a bunch of gar-- investors we think you'll like.

"They blew it up. Honestly, I get it!"

[–] RagingRobot@lemmy.world 3 points 18 hours ago

It's ok I'm going to become one of those cool underground people now with the melted skin who worship a bomb!

[–] Sam_Bass@lemmy.world 19 points 1 day ago

yep. the lofty goals of clean, cool future are wiped away and replaced with the more basement boons of high, fast burn out.

[–] psycho_driver@lemmy.world 17 points 1 day ago

Just hand it over to the apes.

Oh wait, we did.
